### 3/5 — Overall ok

*2021-09-03, version 1.0.0*

The story for this game is quite good and the game is a good length. My issues with it were puzzle instructions that were not clear so I didn’t know what to do and too many of the same type of puzzle.

### 5/5 — Darkness

*2021-03-11, version 1.0.0*

Great game

### 3/5 — Ok start but poor end

*2021-01-13, version 1.0.0*

Got this one on a deal; visuals not great, puzzles quite interesting at first but play got dull with few puzzles. Got stuck on water cannon fight. Couldn’t skip and gave up.

### 3/5 — Macht Spaß, aber Vollversion viel zu teuer

*2020-06-03, version 1.0.0*

Nettes Spiel, aber wie viele andere von Big Fish mit inzwischen 7,99 € (!) viel zu teuer, wenn man die doch eher bescheidene Länge der Spiele bedenkt. Habe mir zuvor die beiden „True Fear“-Spiele gekauft, die deutlich anspruchsvoller und trotzdem preiswerter sind. 
Falls sich die Preise mal wieder in normale Regionen bewegen, bin ich gerne wieder dabei. So lange begnüge ich mich wohl oder übel mit den Demos.

### 1/5 — CANNOT COMPLETE

*2020-02-13, version 1.0.0*

The game has opened up two pages of the diary at once, so I am unable to insert the loose sheet, the game has a glitch, I am totally stuck and cannot continue, will you please refund my money!!!!!,   Thank you

### 5/5 — Fun beginning!

*2020-02-09, version 1.0.0*

Just started this game,but so far so good!

### 4/5 — Creative storyline

*2019-09-01, version 1.0.0*

I’m not happy about the 20 seconds skip recharge but I’m so tired of these games all being the same that I’m giving thumbs up just for the interesting mystery.

### 4/5 — Great game

*2019-08-14, version 1.0.0*

Superb graphics and challenging puzzles.

### 2/5 — Weak storyline, glitchy

*2019-04-19, version 1.0.0*

The storyline was blah, mini games are too easy but it gets frustrating when you tap on hidden objects and nothing happens although it’s the right object. It responds after a while, but it slows things down. I think the weakest aspect is the storyline, it didn’t catch me at all.

### 3/5 — Buggy

*2019-03-28, version 1.0.0*

Lots of freezing, Especially when playing the hops games. I have to restart the games often. I say games in plural. Restarting a game takes away the enjoyment of figuring out what is next. It’s either restarting or not getting enough explanation in order to play the game. 
  What I noticed in casual mode are hops that were simple and then harder games. Not so cool.  Not consistent. 
  I wish I could compliment the game, but there are too many frustrations, which take away from the colors and style. I thought programmers and writers were practically geniuses,  but their not. Since when did java get so complicated?
  It’s too bad the game is full (at least ten) of bugs. It would have been fun. 
  After paying 6.99$ I didn’t get my money’s worth. I took my chance that it would be a good game all the way through. 
   This company, and many more, make it almost impossible to get your money back. That would be fair. At least a code so people can get a game of their choice free. I think there are many gamers who believe like I do. This company doesn’t want you to get your money back. 
  The engineers write games to make money only. Our enjoyment is second place.
