### 2/5 — Crashes on iOS 26.1

*2025-11-22, version 6.2*

I have fond memories of this game and chose to purchase it again. It remains stuck on the loading screen for about ten seconds before crashing. Currently on iPhone 13 Pro iOS 26.1

### 4/5 — On time

*2020-11-04, version 6.1.1*

Can’t wait to play this on iPhone 12 pro max

### 4/5 — Love this app.

*2019-12-25*

I’ve had this app for a very long time. I bring it out every year or so and start over. I wish, though, that Pangea would update it for iOS 13 and dark mode. The tools are very hard to read in dark mode.

### 3/5 — Love this game but still glitchy with new IOS and or iPhone X

*2019-01-18, version 6.0*

The game itself is amazing. I have had this game since owning the original gen 1 iPhone and through the years I always dust it off to play through the levels again. However, while functional on the iPhone X with the most recent software the app has developed a few quirks that I don’t remember it having on past devices. The smaller of the two is the touch mechanics are tad bit too sensitive. Rotation of items being one them, objects always seem to be playing catch up with your finger and when you think you’ve gotten it right you’ve actually overshot your target. Also, in rotation of an item its very easy to unselect the item while trying to rotate it. Scrolling through game space can be a little dangerous to cause you can easily offset other items on the playing field if you do not watch were you place your fingers. This may just something that adds to the challenge which is why it isn’t a huge issue for me. The big thing that kills the rating that I am giving this app is the mildly frequent crashing that occurs mainly through level transitions, has happened several times during key save moments and corrupted my saved game. I then have to delete the data because going back into it always crashes the app there after. If anything, I can live with the slight touch issues just resolve the crashing and I will have no complaints about this game.

### 3/5 — Glad to see this game still being updated... but...

*2017-11-19, version 6.0*

Glad to see that this is now up to date for the iPhone X. However, the music is ATROCIOUS. Luckily it can be turned off but lord have mercy that is terrible. This game would do much better with some ambient noise or some sort of soothing background music but this peppy basic Apple loop junk and the weird Asian scrub music isn’t fitting and is a disgrace.

### 4/5 — ❤️ this game but 10?

*2016-11-11, version 5.2.1*

I ❤️ this game, and I pretty sure that this game was from my earlier childhood. But can you possibly (to the devs) make it compatible with iOS 10?

### 4/5 — Great but no music!

*2016-11-11, version 5.2.1*

Just as I remember it. Solid with no noticeable bugs, but the music is gone. I remember loving the music from the original and it isn't here😢

### 5/5 — 8 years ago...

*2016-07-23, version 5.2.1*

This was the first iPhone game my dad ever got. I remember playing it as a 3 year old. Great memories. Replaying it... Again.

### 5/5 — WOW!!!

*2015-11-21, version 5.2.1*

Best puzzle game EVER!!! Needs more  levels but still awesome!!
I wish I could give it more stars!!!

I have finished the game. And I am seriously BEGGING for more levels!?!?

I just realized that you can hit download 
And there is a ton of levels created by other players with the pc enigmo!!

I wrote the above review years ago.......I'm so glad I discovered this app then, this still holds up as the best app (game) for iPod /iPad to the person or persons who created this you are awesome

### 3/5 — Fun, not enough

*2015-07-23, version 5.2.1*

Fun game, not enough content for the $2 you pay for it.

### 5/5 — Super!!!

*2015-06-02*

Best game! Одна из лучших игр на физику.

### 3/5 — おもしろいけど・・・

*2015-03-20*

アイテムの効果がわからない

### 4/5 — Old-school fun

*2015-02-27, version 5.2.1*

I remember playing Enigmo on an old Power-PC Mac about 10 years ago, and this is bringing back lots of memories! The only issues I see are that it's missing the distinctive soundtrack the Mac version had, and the "double tap to return to inventory" thing can sometimes trigger if I switch between moving and turning a piece. All in all, though, it's still the great game I remember.

### 5/5 — One of the classics.

*2015-02-01, version 5.2.1*

People are flooded with apps nowadays. I'm lucky enough to have been able to experience this in 2008 when apps were a new thing. This game was a pioneer. Should be in the app hall of fame.

### 5/5 — まあまあ面白かった

*2014-12-31*

完全制覇しました。
まあまあ面白かったです。
2もしてみます。

### 5/5 — Besde Leben aller

*2014-12-18*

Eine meiner ersten Apps auf dem iPod touch der 2. Generation. Kaum zu glauben, dass das schon 6 Jahre zurückliegt. Ein absoluter Klassiker, der heute noch Spaß macht

### 2/5 — Lacks iCloud Support

*2014-11-03, version 5.2.1*

The gameplay mechanics are good, however please add iCloud support for saving progress between devices. 

- Gameplay graphics and UX are becoming very outdated. They need to be refreshed to take advantage of modern hardware/iOS capabilities. 

- GameCenter function is buggy. The app freezes after returning from GameCenter achievements or Leaderboards.

### 2/5 — Waiting

*2014-10-06, version 5.2*

Still waiting for an update to fix the game so it can be played with iOS 7...

### 1/5 — Crash

*2019-02-14, version 6.0*

A livello 48 non parte neanche e crasha l’app.. risolvere prego essendo un app a pagamento

### 1/5 — Disabled the game

*2014-09-26, version 5.2*

Broke the game on my Iphone 5s, iOS 7. Oh well.

### 1/5 — Не тратьте деньги!!

*2013-07-04*

Игра отстой!!

### 1/5 — Really annoying

*2012-10-28, version 5.0*

Can you add the option to play it with a sideways view because the view up and down is really hard to view a bunch of things so I'm continually zooming in and out trying to move a few things! Please fix this!!!!!!!

### 1/5 — useless app

*2011-12-02, version 4.1*

sorry but just dont get this one

### 1/5 — WHAT!!!!!!??????

*2011-10-27, version 4.1*

Paid for this app twice. F......

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2011-08-17, version 4.1*

No level reset makes this game almost unplayable. Not worth the money.

### 1/5 — Terrible game

*2011-07-18, version 4.1*

I like puzzle games but this game is god awful. No explanations for what anything does, just figure it out for yourself. Terrible, terrible, terrible. Did you really have to make 2 terrible games like this?

### 1/5 — Nice but meh

*2011-06-20, version 4.1*

I've had this since day 1 but seldom play it because of the awkward touch controls. Controlling a small object by putting your finger on it obscures the object! This is a full-screen game that doesn't translate well to an iPhone. 

The real reason for my low rating is charging extra for the iPad version. Developer, did it ever occur to you that you might sell more copies if it was universal? People who own multiple devices tend to only buy universal apps. The best apps are universal—don't be greedy, you just end up shooting yourself in the foot.

### 1/5 — Do not buy it!!!

*2011-05-18, version 4.1*

80's style graphics gives this game a dumb look. The game play is not worth 3 bucks rather spend it on some fart 3 times over

### 5/5 — Nice!!! Addictive!!

*2023-10-13, version 6.2*

One of the best games! Bugs on latest iOS. Hope to see it fix soon.

### 5/5 — Oldest App on the App Store!

*2023-01-27, version 6.2*

This is the oldest surviving App (Game) on the App Store that wasn’t removed during the Apple Purge. Luckily! Because this Game is amazing it can get very tricky but that’s also what makes it so good. The puzzles are well designed and I like the addition of new features over time.

10/10 Thanks Pangea for creating this Masterpiece!

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2022-04-24, version 6.1.1*

Works Flawlessly on iPhones and M1 macs

### 5/5 — Çok iyi

*2020-05-06, version 6.1*

En iyi appstore oyunlarından

### 5/5 — Paráda

*2020-04-22, version 6.1*

Pro mě jedna z nejlepších logických her, ke které se pravidelně vracím už spoustu let.

### 5/5 — Klassiker ohne Konkurrenz

*2019-06-23*

War schon damals süchtig danach und heute auch noch. 

Super Spiel, Kompliment an die Entwickler 👍😎

### 5/5 — Cool

*2018-11-06, version 6.0*

Me encanta este juego, había perdido mi iPod touch hace mucho y nunca pensé en descargar apps viejas, hoy siento esa nostalgia al ver juegos maravillosos como estos, también descarguen enigma 2 es i creíble!

### 5/5 — Retro

*2018-06-30, version 6.0*

I paid $9.99 for this in 2007.

### 5/5 — Worth every penny!

*2017-12-06, version 6.0*

Update 2017:  Thanks to the developer for keeping this app updated.   I originally reviewed this app 9 years ago!!!  Good job.

### 5/5 — ENDLICH mit Musik 🎵

*2017-11-17*

Nicht nur, dass das iPhone X jetzt unterstützt wird, auch spielt endlich, neun Jahre nach der Veröffentlichung, in der App die dazugehörige Musik. War für mich im Grunde vorher unspielbar.
Jetzt wünscht man sich am besten noch Bugdom 1 und Weekend Warrior dazu.
