### 4/5 — Challenging

*2023-11-24*

I wish there were clearer instructions how to navigate this site.  The graphics are beautiful.

### 4/5 — Pretty fun little game

*2022-12-24, version 2.1*

I just finished it, nothing to do with Silent Hill (sadly) but still had a good time; couple stuck points that I had to use the video walkthrough for and may have done well to be a little less camouflaged—But there is a video walkthrough to find them so I’m fine with it

I like the format of it, how you move between areas but there isn’t a terrible lot of backtracking despite it, objectives become apparent, just good escape game overall, big fan

### 3/5 — Not intuitive

*2022-11-05, version 2.1*

The game is not intuitive, although interesting, it is difficult to tell what some objects are, and therefore challenging to know how to use them. Also on a phone it is really difficult to see some of the smaller graphics and letters. Could use better translation from the original language into English in a few places.

### 3/5 — Glitch

*2022-08-31, version 2.1*

I’m liking the game. I need to use the walkthrough video to help me get through. Now, I’m at a standstill, the door in the tree by the well won’t open. I have the key. There is just a hole in the door, no keyhole. I even deleted the game and reinstalled it. Still got stuck at the same place. Not sure what to do. I agree hints would be helpful. I would have given more stars.

### 4/5 — Hints

*2022-04-22, version 2.1*

Should have some hints, some of the items don’t make sense to put together. Also what the item is.. should show when you select it. Good game all in all.

### 4/5 — Escape from Silent Hill

*2021-09-06, version 2.1*

Very interesting, but I got stuck almost immediately

### 4/5 — Escape

*2021-05-10, version 2.1*

Pretty nice point and find escape game.  I wish you could have the option to turn on hints when you get stuck.

### 3/5 — Too many ads

*2020-08-06, version 2.1*

Constantly interrupted by ads!

### 4/5 — Too many ads but still fun

*2020-07-22, version 2.1*

Fun and pretty but the pop up ads were annoying

### 4/5 — pretty fun

*2020-07-05, version 2.1*

I liked that it was such a long game. Just when you think you’ve opened the last door, you’re in another place with puzzles to solve.

### 4/5 — Escape from Silent Hill

*2020-05-20, version 2.1*

Would be nice to have a hint to know where to go I like the game but can’t get any where

### 4/5 — How to play.

*2020-04-09, version 2.1*

I would really like if there was a tutorial on how this game worked. It’s very confusing starting out.

### 4/5 — Brain changer

*2020-04-07, version 2.1*

Makes you think and ACTUALLY brainstorm

### 4/5 — Great game!  Please make it longer!

*2020-04-01, version 2.1*

This game was a lot of fun. The escape was challenging, which was awesome. It took me a little bit to figure out how the game worked but once I got it, it was a lot of fun. I just wish there was more to it!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Don’t ask for a review before playing for 5 minutes

*2021-11-27, version 2.1*

Don’t ask for a review before playing for 5 minutes

### 1/5 — Nah

*2019-03-31, version 2.1*

I’ve played tons of point & click escape games in the last few months, all of them having pop-up ads, but NONE having so many you can’t play the game.  Booooo

### 2/5 — Frustating

*2022-10-22, version 2.1*

Has potential, but in order to get clues you MUST listen to the annoying music. Half the time you don’t know if you picked something up or not, and the other half you have no idea what you picked up.

### 2/5 — Not great

*2021-05-06, version 2.1*

If you just want to randomly tap your screen for a while, go for this game.

### 2/5 — So frustrating

*2020-11-14, version 2.1*

I like figuring out puzzles but I ended up just tapping all over the room continuously trying to find something that worked!

### 2/5 — Bothersome commercials

*2020-10-06, version 2.1*

This game is nice but it have a major problem 
Is a time consuming game plus on top of that every item that you find pops a comercial in less than a minute I had 7 is game breaking and annoying to a point that I just erase the app from my phone

### 2/5 — Fun but hard

*2020-06-13, version 2.1*

Not easy to see the answers. But still fun.

Have to knock two stars off. Glitch in game and I cannot continue

### 2/5 — Thunder dome of advertisements

*2019-12-01, version 2.1*

I’m used to ads because I play free games, but this was way out of hand.  Two stars for pretty graphics. I couldn’t get into anything else due to constant interruptions.

### 2/5 — Pretty good

*2019-04-05, version 2.1*

After I was asked to rate the game, it changed so that I get “punished” for making a correct move! Have to watch ad after a correct move.

### 2/5 — Okay but frustrating

*2018-12-31, version 2.1*

Not a very intuitive interface.
