### 3/5 — needs fixing

*2024-10-29, version 2.2.0*

game seems great so far but it’s impossible to open your inventory with the new iphone/updates because the camera bar is in the way of the button :/

### 2/5 — Disappointing, Nonfunctional

*2024-09-17, version 2.2.0*

I was enjoying the puzzles. Alas, I didn’t get to complete it. The game wouldn’t accept a solution to a music puzzle. I even looked on a walkthrough site to no avail. Even they commented they couldn’t finish the game due to “corruption”. A tragic waste of money.

### 3/5 — Good game - Big problem :(

*2024-05-09, version 2.2.0*

Unfortunately, I have pretty moderate to severe arthritis.  I was enjoying your game until I had to handle pieces of puzzles that wiggle around and become quite unwieldy, producing a fair amount of pain.  Please consider making handling of puzzle parts a little more easy to do.  I will persevere for awhile but I fear I will have to abandon the game.  I’m sure there are others out there who would like to have some fun without pain.

### 2/5 — Read the reviews..

*2024-04-07, version 2.2.0*

…they are right.  Where’s the sequel? If it ever appears I hope they will not look for more money.

### 3/5 — Fairly good game but has a bug

*2024-03-12, version 2.2.0*

Can’t complete room six because I no longer have the mask.  Can’t do anymore without that.  Very disappointing,

### 2/5 — Escape the lost temples

*2024-02-16, version 2.2.0*

Paid for full game finished it over a few hours was very disappointing that’s there wasn’t another stage .

### 3/5 — Decent graphics, disappointing functionality

*2024-01-12, version 2.2.0*

After finishing The Room and The Room 2, games that set a very and rarely attainable high bar, I didn’t really expect this game to match that caliber, but I I found it to be quite disappointing. It started off well, with elaborate graphics and simple challenges. But it was odd that I could place myself at virtually any spot in the space (reminding me how Pegman works on Google Maps) even if the position proved to be irrelevant and had no bearing on anything. Also, some of the found objects were extremely hard to see on my smartphone. The first puzzle tiles were not rendered distinctly and almost disappeared into the surrounding environment. I found some of the pieces by accident. This became problematic and confusing inside the first chamber, when I searched fruitlessly for a final puzzle piece that turned out to be missing completely. I moved around and around the chamber several times, tapping on literally every spot futilely, because like the other puzzle pieces I had found, I assumed it was almost invisible. I had to quit the game and start from scratch, which confirmed that my suspicions were correct, because the missing puzzle piece was there upon reset. The “hints” either gave me nothing helpful at all or suggested something I had already accomplished. The book of hints bouncing in the corner annoyed me. Also disappointing was that, after completing the last major challenge, the game stopped advancing unless I paid $4. I did not and will not.

### 3/5 — Loved it!

*2023-07-27, version 2.2.0*

I really loved this game , so fun and atmospheric.
The only downside was it ended too quickly
And without much explanation beyond 
“To be continued”
It’s not so much about the money being spent but more the insinuation that you would be getting many more levels increasing in difficulty. So I found that a little deceitful.
That being said I really appreciate the team who’s put the work in this game it’s beautifully done.

Can we expect to return to London for more levels soon?

### 3/5 — No vale la pena la Plata

*2023-06-26, version 2.2.0*

Es muy básico y corto para haber pagado los casi 4 dólares … es divertido pero los acertijos son fáciles y predecibles. Y cómo dije es muy corto.

### 3/5 — Well, ok

*2023-06-25, version 2.2.0*

Nice Graphic, puzzles are average, ending leaves you wanting.  Interface needs work, having run through it twice I still found the interface a pain.  Overpriced for the experience.

### 3/5 — Good, but could be better

*2023-02-10, version 2.2.0*

The graphics are really nice but the moving around in this game is horrible.  It you get nauseous from spinning and fast movement, this game is not for you.  You will point to go to a certain area and end up somewhere else.

### 2/5 — A rip off

*2023-02-02, version 2.2.0*

Having paid for this I found I had about 15 minutes of solving only to be asked for money to unlock the rest! It wasn’t made clear I was paying only for a trailer in effect. I enjoyed what I had access to but I shall be deleting it and finding something else.

### 3/5 — Fun game, but…

*2023-01-17, version 2.2.0*

I really enjoyed this game until I could not get past the snake room. It kept killing the app and I would have to start the chapter over from the beginning. After doing this several times, I deduced it was not my iPad, it was the app. Please fix this bug and I will change my star rating.

### 2/5 — Beautiful game

*2023-01-17, version 2.2.0*

There’s a tile puzzle..I couldn’t find the last tile
14donal

### 2/5 — Boring and short

*2022-12-20*

Seems like a real escape room company paid someone to bang out a very VERY rudimentary escape game. Puzzles are fairly easy, and straightforward, maybe 2 I had to think about the answer or try different solutions the rest were very basic. Not worth 3-4$ way to short and ends abruptly, no idea how anyone could manage to take 3-4 hours on this. I legit beat in 1hr but that was more from the sketchy controls not length of the game or depth of puzzles, most of which are just cookie cutter and super easy plus there’s maybe ten in total. So many better escape games for cheaper or heck I’ve played free ones that are better lol

### 1/5 — Crash city

*2025-04-08, version 2.2.0*

This game crashes on my iPad Pro at least twice a day.

### 1/5 — Not fair

*2025-02-04, version 2.2.0*

I was very clever all the way to the wall tile- however… I got the left side complete and then it froze on the lafayette so there’s no way I could continue to finish the puzzle! I watched a walkthrough that completed it and their left side did not freeze on them to where the tiles couldn’t move.  Ticked I payed and can’t move on to finish the game…

### 1/5 — Deceiving

*2023-07-09, version 2.2.0*

5 minutes of free play, involving about 3 seperate puzzles, and then told you have to pay £3.99 for the rest of the game.

### 1/5 — Not worth money

*2023-07-05, version 2.2.0*

I was, as were others I suspect, seduced by the slick graphics of the free level. Having paid for the full version I was disappointed. Control is at best clunky moving when you just want to look around you. No ability to go back save and replay a level. This was the first game I had bought for some time and it will be a long time before I buy another if Apple are promoting games like this. To be continued is no way to end a game. No save your money for something better. I have written it off to experience.

### 1/5 — Game will not load

*2023-01-25, version 2.2.0*

I can't get the game to run.  It wii startup and the closes.  I have deleted and reinstalled it several times and still will not run.  Looking for a refund

Unhappy Costumer

### 1/5 — Stuck in Room 5

*2022-11-23, version 2.2.0*

Game does not let me open lock. Movement overshoots objects. 
Beautiful graphics and challenging, but have to quit now. Hint book is useless, have to go online for answers.

### 1/5 — Poor

*2022-11-11, version 2.2.0*

Very poor ‘tap to move’ function. 
Quite irritating.

### 1/5 — Great Game - Waaaay to Short

*2022-10-14, version 2.2.0*

Title says it all ! When you compare to Room or DaVinci series a major disappointment so short. What more is there to say.

### 1/5 — Cost to continue playing

*2022-10-14, version 2.2.0*

I got through first two levels and they then wanted $3.99 to continue. Big bait game!

### 1/5 — Wish I’d read the reviews

*2022-09-15, version 2.2.0*

This game is so short.  There’s no way it’s worth the money paid to play.  Its reasonably glitchy and lacks a strong storyline.  I’m feeling very ripped off.  Don’t waste your time & money.  Very disappointing.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2024-08-21, version 2.2.0*

I absolutely love  this game. It’s challenging abed the graphics are great!

### 5/5 — Good Game

*2024-01-28, version 2.2.0*

I enjoyed this game even was kind of short but it was nice. I was hoping there be a continuous of it since the Profesor said at the end to go to London to keep trying to rescue him. Why is it that never was a second or more parts to this game ?

### 5/5 — Really liked it

*2024-01-04, version 2.2.0*

Just addictive enough to not want to put it down.  Not crazy complicated, & the graphics were nice.  Moving around was a little ‘glitchy’, but still enjoyable.

### 5/5 — La suite??

*2024-01-03, version 2.2.0*

Bonjour j’ai aimé le jeu et je l’ai terminé, à la fin ça nous dit à suivre, c’est quand sortira la suite?  Merci!!

### 5/5 — Awesome! One of the best games I’ve played

*2023-10-10*

I loved this game. I was completely immersed in the puzzles and the environment. The puzzles were very challenging, and not too impossible to solve. It was similar to the da Vinci games. I really enjoyed playing this and would love to play more just like it with various story lines connecting to each other.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2023-09-03, version 2.2.0*

Great game , wish they had more like it. Amazing graphics and puzzles. No in app clues so it makes you think. Please make more!

### 5/5 — Not a review but a question

*2023-07-02, version 2.2.0*

Is there going to be a second lost temple game as at the end it says “to be continued “?

### 5/5 — Excellent game

*2023-06-19, version 2.2.0*

I understand the frustrations with the controls but using my iPad vs iPhone made a difference.  It should work well across all devices BUT even still this is a great game!  Great puzzles and it’s fun!  I can’t wait for the next one!

### 5/5 — I love this game

*2023-03-01, version 2.2.0*

I love this game and I’m hoping to see more just like it. There are very few with the graphics as good as this one. I look forward to more games like these in the future.

### 5/5 — More please

*2023-01-13, version 2.2.0*

This is a great game, I don’t understand why there are so few games like this, luckily you can replay them they are so good. But we need more please.
