The ray gun does nothing and you can’t complete the game. I guess the second level will never be played. Fix the glitch! 😡 ### 1/5 — HIGHLY **DO NOT** RECOMMEND *2019-02-25, version 1.0* This would be a great game if it were not for two huge drawbacks: first they have ads from a place called SmartTech that freezes the app. Once that ad pops up no matter what you choose, “no thanks“ or “open“, nothing happens and the only option is to close the app and restart, which brings me to the second huge drawback. If you go to another app while you’re using this one when you return you have to start over from square one so you lose all of the progress you’ve made. My suggestion: delete the app and find one with a better than 3-star rating. To the developers: when your advertisers see how low your rating is how long do you think it will be before they take their business elsewhere? My suggestion: fix the app. ### 2/5 — Glitch!!!!!!! *2019-02-06, version 1.0* I love these kind of games and I was so close to escaping but then, THERE WAS A GLITCH!!! The gun would not stop shooting the target and the target would not shrink!! Honestly, this is a real disappointment because I was looking forward to the next level but I couldn’t unlock it if I didn’t finish the level or play. I am sure many people, like me, don’t spend money on games so it is sad that all those people won’t get to experience the next level. Overall, fun but the bug ruins it all. It changed my 5 star rating to 2. Anyway I hope the bug gets fixed! I will wait in the room until then (cause I can't escape).😉 ### 1/5 — Glitch *2019-01-29, version 1.0* FIX THE GLITCH! ### 1/5 — Bad glitch not fixed *2019-01-13, version 1.0* Yes it’s the target glitch. Keep hoping it will be fixed but no. I tried going through the game several times blasting the target at a different point each time through, even saving the ray gun/target until the last, but still the gun blasts the target and an electrical waterfall comes out...and won’t stop...and doesn’t give you anything for your trouble. Can’t move on to next level without paying. I’ve played a lot of games from this developer and they all have worked pretty well. But this, this is preposterous that it hasn’t been fixed. ### 1/5 — Developer not fixing glitches *2018-12-06, version 1.0* I just looked back over the ratings of this game and saw that the same glitch I am having problems with had not been fixed. Done with this developer. ### 1/5 — Please fix glitch *2018-10-15, version 1.0* As others have stated, you cannot get the last target disc after shooting laser gun. Please fix this! ### 1/5 — But, can’t complete game *2018-10-11, version 1.0* The gun never stops shooting at the target, so can’t complete. Also WAY too many ads. ### 3/5 — Game can be frustrating *2018-10-10, version 1.0* I keep getting stuck. Sometimes hard to understand what to do next. ### 2/5 — Just like everyone else... *2018-05-24, version 1.0* Can’t finish the game cause of the laser gun issue :( is the developer ever gonna fix this issue? ### 1/5 — Morninglory *2017-09-23, version 1.0* Glitches! Ads cover laser gun. Can't get hints because they want you to purchase them instead of watch ads. I'm done with this developer and believe the five star reviews are extremely questionable!! ### 2/5 — Glitch! *2017-09-22, version 1.0* I've played many other games from the same developer....got frustrated and paid for hints to only find out that others have had the same glitch. Very frustrating....wish I had read the other reviews first. Lesson learned ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — A bug makes the game unwinnable. *2021-02-07, version 1.0* The shrink gun doesn’t actually shrink the object. It just stays on and on. Since the object doesn’t shrink like it should none of the remaining puzzles can be solved. The game can’t be finished nor can you move to the next level/room unless you want to pay to jump to the next level/room ### 1/5 — Glitch *2021-01-21, version 1.0* I love your escape games they are hard enough to be interesting but not too hard that you want to quit .... until this one .... just like everyone else the ray gun is glitched and you can’t move on 😢 ### 1/5 — Busted Game *2020-09-07, version 1.0* The first level can’t be completed. The ray gun doesn’t work like it’s supposed to making the player unable to complete the first level. Deleting now. ### 1/5 — Huge glitch *2020-06-23, version 1.0* So disappointed. Got all the way to the gun shooting the target and it won’t shrink the target. I even paid for hints to find out I wasn’t missing something it’s the apps fault!!!!! What a rip off! ### 1/5 — Glitch ruins the game *2020-02-26, version 1.0* Game works ok until you get to the last step. Gun freezes and you never escape the first level. ### 1/5 — Still glitched *2020-01-17, version 1.0* Yeah, the laser gun glitch. Please fix it. It’s STILL there! ### 1/5 — Stuck *2019-10-31, version 1.0* On the red laser gun, you shoot the target and just goes to flowing water, never gives you second target board to finish game!! Now I feel incomplete, gee ### 1/5 — Target glitch got me *2019-10-29, version 1.0* Oh no ### 1/5 — Target bug *2019-07-27, version 1.0* Still not fixed, cannot complete the escape. ### 1/5 — Glitchy and Cannot Progress *2019-06-25, version 1.0* Cannot get past the point where we shoot the gun at the target. Just keeps firing and nothing else will advance. :( ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Taryn *2019-12-08, version 1.0* Help ### 5/5 — Escape game *2019-11-18, version 1.0* Great game ### 5/5 — Help *2019-06-16, version 1.0* I need help ### 5/5 — Game *2019-04-16, version 1.0* Pain in the butt ad gets in your way and you can’t finish playing ### 5/5 — Fun game! *2019-02-03, version 1.0* Hate that it doesn’t save but overall not a bad game. ### 5/5 — Escape challenge *2018-10-26, version 1.0* Fun ### 5/5 — good *2018-09-17, version 1.0* yos ### 5/5 — Great game *2017-09-10, version 1.0* Very challenging.
