NOT SO! I have the full game in my iPhone, but the game still expects me to buy the full game on my iPad. Really disappointed. ### 5/5 — Gooooood *2025-11-30, version 1.1.3* Craziii ### 5/5 — Game hay *2025-11-21, version 1.1.3* Game chơi được, hoạt ảnh mượt mà ### 5/5 — Loved it *2025-11-13, version 1.1.3* I stumbled upon this game as a kid and I couldn’t stop playing it and as an adult i tried everything to find it but it didn’t show up until i saw an image on google that looked like it was from it and it was then i finally got to play it again its a very fun game loved it so much and the nostalgia from it ### 3/5 — Good but bug has halted the game *2025-11-12, version 1.1.3* Good game but bug in level 11 and can’t continue any further… triangle will not rotate on top of tower 2 ### 3/5 — Simple pero bueno *2025-11-08, version 1.1.3* Like ### 3/5 — Schwierig ohne richtige Anleitung *2025-10-25, version 1.1.3* Eine Anleitung wäre nicht schlecht ### 2/5 — Would be better if in-app purchase worked *2025-10-24, version 1.1.3* The free levels are great, but it’s frustrating that trying to buy the full game simply crashes the game. There doesn’t seem to be any place to request help on this issue. Game is worth checking out though, even if you can’t buy it. ### 5/5 — A gentle puzzler *2025-10-20, version 1.1.3* I really like this type of game, an intuitive approach, a decent learning curve and a visual hint system that still needs you to figure out the manipulation or logic at times. Took me several evenings to complete the 20 levels, and I didn’t find all the notes; not sure if there’s a bonus relating to them? Anyway have downloaded the next two to keep me out of mischief this week. ### 4/5 — 廣告不要那麼多就更好了 *2025-10-19, version 1.1.3* 大致上很好玩 ### 5/5 — Very good *2025-10-15, version 1.1.3* It’s a very good puzzle game, it makes you think kind of puzzle game. ### 5/5 — Faraway:puzzle escape *2025-10-15* I’ve played #2 & 3…on level 8 in the first faraway..from what I’ve observed I get one free hint maybe every day..I have done most of this without having to use the hints..I am almost done with this game but having to wait to get a clue is absolutely crazy..I’m giving it 5 stars because I’m having a fun time..still waiting on a hint..it’s been two days without one..I have figured out many things on my own without having to use a hint..now that I have no idea what to do there’s no help…I just blew through faraway 4…still have level nine in the first faraway game…I can honestly say that I was able to get through the rest of level 9 without having to use a hint..I gave done 1-4 faraway games and to play this…it was definitely AWESOME 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 ### 5/5 — Faraway:puzzle escape *2025-10-12* I’ve played #2 & 3…on level 8 in the first faraway..from what I’ve observed I get one free hint maybe every day..I have done most of this without having to use the hints..I am almost done with this game but having to wait to get a clue is absolutely crazy..I’m giving it 5 stars because I’m having a fun time..still waiting on a hint..it’s been two days without one..I have figured out many things on my own without having to use a hint..now that I have no idea what to do there’s no help ### 5/5 — Tis Good *2025-10-03, version 1.1.3* Hi the game is so good I love it ### 5/5 — 好 *2025-09-26, version 1.1.3* 好 ### 5/5 — Beautiful *2025-09-17, version 1.1.3* Looks gorgeous, great atmosphere. The puzzles aren’t very difficult, which makes it a very relaxing game. I accidentally discovered a crash within the first ~10 minutes, which isn’t a great sign :( But overall, love it! I will be playing the second one! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Needs a skip option *2026-08-05, version 1.1.3* I was really enjoying this until I reached the laser puzzles on level 18. I know exactly what needs to be done and what the rules are, but I am not physically capable of manipulating the fiddly controls within the very narrow tolerance of the mazes inside the building. Past that point, it becomes a test of fine motor dexterity rather than the mental exercise that was advertised, and, as a result, I will never be able to finish unless I can find someone to play this section for me. ### 1/5 — sehr, sehr einfache, schlichte Rätsel *2025-10-30, version 1.1.3* Sehr kurzes, sehr einfaches Spiel mit schlichten Rätseln in grober Optik. Hat mir überhaupt nicht gefallen. ### 1/5 — Wow it’s expensive and forced ads *2025-09-23, version 1.1.3* You only get the first 9 levels free and then it’s really expensive. Charge less and you’ll likely get more uptake. Like £1 not £5. Plus you’re already forcing ads which is rare to see on a game. You can’t even play it without watching an ad. That’s enough for me to write in and say, save your time and download something else. Deleting the game! ### 1/5 — To many ads *2025-08-29, version 1.1.3* Ads that are between each level are on longer than it takes to get through a level. ### 1/5 — Bad game *2025-06-14* Bad ### 1/5 — Fbfnd *2024-10-02, version 1.1.3* Nous ne pouvons pas continuer jusqu’à la fin c nul ### 1/5 — Why is the full game need money!???!! *2024-07-03, version 1.1.3* I want to play the full game to test my iQ but the price was high!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ### 1/5 — Too essay *2024-04-23, version 1.1.3* Way too essay ### 1/5 — A “Minus Star” *2024-02-21* Dunno what the objective is. “Earn when you Can” ### 1/5 — After 9 scene you have to pay 7$ to get another 11 scenes *2022-11-07, version 1.1.3* Relax ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Exceptional *2026-06-27, version 1.1.3* I’ve played many escape puzzles,started with rooms completed them all. Looking for my next games I saw 3 D escape games,these are the most challenging,satisfying when complete.love these,will be finishing the trilogy. Thank guys,,keep making these. LOVE it. ### 5/5 — Some in game bugs *2026-06-26, version 1.1.3* It is fun and all but there is some bugs in pruduction it just that the visuals change a bit ### 5/5 — 퀄리티 장난아님 *2026-06-05* 항아리 부수거나 편지 모으는 재미도 쏠쏠하고 퍼즐도 재밌습니다 뭣보다 맵 디자인? 이나 퀄리티가 너무 좋음 ### 5/5 — Maravilho, apenas joguem! *2026-05-26* Quando era adolescente costumava ficar HORAS jogando todos os jogos da saga, mas, por motivo de falta de armazenamento, vez ou outra desinstalava os jogos. Agora lembrei deles e ainda bem que achei. Partiu jogar todos novamente pra ocupar o espaço da nostalgia!! ### 5/5 — Faraway puzzle escape is rad *2026-05-11, version 1.1.3* Best little puzzle game app ### 5/5 — Classic *2026-04-15, version 1.1.3* Enjoyed it when it released and got it again ### 5/5 — . *2026-04-15* Bien mais dommage que se soir payant 😔 ### 5/5 — 힐링탈출겜 *2026-02-08* 너무 어렵지도 않고 브금도 평화로워서 마음 비우기 좋은 방탈출 게임이에요! 무료맵도 많아서 좋아요 ### 5/5 — Excellent *2026-02-06, version 1.1.3* Excellent game ### 5/5 — Far away puzzle escape *2025-12-08, version 1.1.3* 👍 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
