Navigating to different levels is confusing and progression is non linear. ### 5/5 — Great game, fun and innovative, PLEASE port to mac on app store *2025-04-08, version 1.0.4* i love this game. it's fun, the mechanics are cool, the design is simplistic but good-looking, ive had fun playing this. but i really want to play it on my school assigned macbook and would love it if you could make a macbook port. <| : D ### 1/5 — Unusable *2025-03-26, version 1.0.4* The original game is a timeless classic, but not able to play because loading a saved game makes it crash. I’d lose all progress and have to start again, only to crash again elsewhere. ### 5/5 — Under 200mb *2025-02-05, version 1.0.4* How’d he do it ### 4/5 — Glitch game on iOS and no available support on the app support link *2025-01-14, version 1.0.4* A really fun game until… some difficulties I think can wait until I finish the first version of the game. I’ve already played this on my switch where I can complete everything except the clock Puzzle which is glitched out there. On the switch, there are some places where you need to be able to feel the vibration on your controller. Those are the tuning fork puzzles, but supposedly you can solve it by listening, but not on an iPad so probably not on an iPhone either; maybe if you have a headset which I do not. However, the game shuts down every time I try to solve the puzzle where you have to get the cubes sideways when you spell out Metatron‘s name I don’t know if it’s only with one cube or if it’s the location, but I can’t get it to not shut down and I can’t get to Support. I don’t play platformer games. I didn’t even think of this as one. It’s a great puzzle game and it’s also mind blowing. I think that’s healthy for the mind and I’m a psychiatrist so maybe my opinion should count. I first played this game on iOS. And then I change to the switch and I was able to do the entire game except for the puzzle. I have painful arthritis in the base of my right thumb and yet I could still do it without aggravating that it’s much harder for the iOS compared to the switch. I would give this game five stars if the glitches were surmountable. Just making an “app Support” button with no support behind it is almost worth minus 2 stars. Without the glitches, this game would be worth 5 stars. Don’t forget multiple solutions to puzzles online. ### 2/5 — Poor platformer with inadequate controls *2024-11-27, version 1.0.4* Disappointing. I was falsely lead to believe that this game was about solving clever spacial puzzles. However, significant sections of the game rely heavily on jumping or climbing from one stupid platform to another with very little to logically puzzle through. For a game that incorporates so much platforming, its controls are frustratingly imprecise. I spent significantly more time than I wanted just jumping around from one stupid platform to another, and very little time was spent solving puzzles. I only finished about 30% of the game before finally accepting that it’s just not what I want. I caution you against playing this if you’re looking for a fun and clever puzzle game. ### 4/5 — Mostly good. *2024-10-14* The main concept of rotating the 3rd dimension to get different 2d environments, or teleporting through the 3rd dimension via 2d environments, is simple, creative and fun to use. Exploring the bunch of different places in this game to find cubes, is like going through leisurely puzzles that couldn't be recreated in reality. The game is also a good size, keeping places just within reach and comprehensibility, but I only did 80% of it. Some parts of the game are ridiculously cryptic, hardly logical, and without any extra help available. However, understanding that last ~20%, or searching online, is required to even finish the game. If I were determined on completing it, that amount of investment was going to turn the leisurely puzzles into tedious studies, which was nitpicking that I didn't care for and wasn't worth it to me. I'm especially unsure of kids' abilities to work through some of this. At least, most of the game already satisfied me. Also, it worked perfectly on my iOS 17 iPad Air. ### 4/5 — Issue bug *2024-10-14, version 1.0.4* Game keeps crashing when played on split screen on iPad ### 5/5 — Continuez à faire des portage pc sur mobile *2024-07-29* Un vrai plaisir de découvrir ce jeux sur mobile merci 👍 ## Frequently asked questions about FEZ Pocket Edition ### What is FEZ Pocket Edition about?
