Good but not perfect

Like all their games, it’s really good. I give it four stars because some of the puzzles make absolutely no sense whatsoever. Even after the hint, they’re completely illogical.

Well Done

Rediscovered this developer. Can’t wait to play the other escapes. Pretty long. Maybe too long but it’s well done so no biggie. There are a lot of hints,clues and puzzles here. I mean a lot so I like the hint/answer system. Only had to use it a couple times. Only ding is that a couple puzzles I still didn’t understand even after I had the answer. Also it would be nice to have a picture taking system like what Jun Wakabayashi does. That would help a lot with this long game. Over all I enjoyed it.

Dang!

I loved this game! Had to get some help at times from Tiny Bunny but loved the challenge and the game was very cool.

Castaway

Right up there with the best. Play time for days. Don’t miss this one.

Epic

This was great, I didn’t think it was going to be too long as it was a free game, but it just kept going and going. Some weird puzzles in there, but hints were around and the ads weren’t too intrusive. A few different endings also, I didn’t want it to stop.
Well done!

Good Fun

It’ll challenge you n make you think. If you get stuck you can watch a short ad for a hint. Addicting. Recommended.

Fun

Mainly very logical steps and puzzles, and although there were some that took a bit of thinking to solve, I only had to use the hints once. For that puzzle, even with the answer it took some time before I realised how it worked. I had tried the correct method but just couldn’t find the solution so I feel like some patience and attention to detail is definitely necessary. I played some of the other escape games by this creator and like how the pieces of the story link up together.

Good but not perfect

Another good one, but this time too brainy in some moments, almost illogical

Really great game

Challenging but with hints available. A reasonable amount of ads. Cool levels to explore.

Banner ads take up 30% of screen

Banner ads top and bottom of screen are intrusive and destroys concentration.

Absolutely…..AMAZING

As expected to be honest. But this is awesome. VERY challenging but kept me coming back!!! Can’t wait for more. Would love an option to buy all hints….but as many as there are that may be pricey. lol. JUST TAKE MY MONEY!!!

Love These Games!

They make you think, but so satisfying when you solve the challenge. I probably succeeded in 95% of them, but there were a couple that I’m still scratching my head! I am sorry I completed this, but so look forward to the next! Most excellent!

Fun adventure

Love these games and developer. I have played most of them over the last few years. Some puzzles are easy and intuitive. Some puzzles are very challenging, but still intuitive. However, there are always a few puzzles in these games that just make no sense to me, even after getting the answer and having the logic explained to me. Maybe it is just me, but I would never be able to solve it without help. Still love these and will play them all. They are relaxing, but make me think and satisfy the problem-solving need in my brain.

A few suggestions...

Overall I really like your games and will keep playing them all! They're a different sort of challenge for more experienced players.

Love that these games are challenging, but don't love having to switch to my photo app to see screenshots of important places/clues. An ad plays each time I have to do that. Some other apps have in game cameras to let us keep track of clues. I would love that!

Thank you for the red arrows in the cave system! That helped navigate there whereas usually I miss entire sections of the game bc it wasn't obvious that the other cave peeled off to the right, or a particular click will get you behind the tree. Navigating is a little tricky for your games, but I'm getting better knowing that you hide spaces and things intentionally.

Another suggestion, on the island with the tree/grave. The gems paintings have a mark on them in the middle - I think it's supposed to be a reflection/shiny mark - but they look like arrows pointing in certain directions. They ended up not being arrows but I was lost on the puzzle they're included in because of this misconception. Removing the reflection mark may help keep things clearer. They just look too much like arrows and don't add to the design very well.

*SPOILERS AHEAD*

Lastly, the license plate/hood puzzle just seems to be lacking in clarity. Even after hints it took me a bit to understand what you wanted. I'd suggest instead of one arrow under each group (letters then numbers), arrows between each letter and each number would make the desired outcome much clearer, though still a challenge. As it is, I interpreted it to mean to use the colors of 7, then 8, then 2. And then the colors of A then G then I (in reverse order bc the arrow was backwards). That only gave 6 colors so I looked for ages for 3 more letters/numbers associated with the middle diamond symbol. The arrows in other parts of your games (eg diving area boards) indicate direction just generally. Arrows in between values would make me think closer to a path I need to follow (like you wanted on the board). Some puzzle designs just communicate the goal more effectively than this one did.

But again, overall loved the game. I've really enjoyed how you need 2 or 3 pieces of info before solving some puzzles! Cheers and looking forward to more games!

SO AWESOME!

Always a pleasure to play this developer’s games! The puzzles are the right amount of difficulty level, really decent amount of play time, graphics are great, and I have grown really fond of the sound effects used in these games.

Another great game

Another phenomenal game from this developer. I love the challenge, I love the length, I love the graphics and design, I love the multiple endings. I love even the little things, like how you can walk away from a puzzle and continue where you left off. Hope you never stop making these games.
