### 3/5 — Homage

*2021-07-25, version 1.0.0*

Weird flashbacks to replay bits out of sequence. Good puzzles but some more accuracy needed in touch-screen activity.

### 4/5 — Good game

*2019-07-13, version 1.0.0*

I loved the first final cut.  This one reminds me of that one because the music is the same and we are able to go back and forth between an older and newer set. I just want to say when you exit allow the game time to finish loading before exiting.

### 3/5 — Un peu déçue...

*2017-01-04, version 1.0.0*

La deuxième fois que j'ai essayé de jouer, je ne voyais plus mon inventaire d'objets malgré qu'ils étaient bien là... impossible de continuer... une mise à jour serait assez bien!

### 2/5 — Better, but...

*2016-08-06*

Well, it's been fixed and doesn't keep crashing anymore, but....  I have yet to find one game in the Final Cut series that I enjoy.  I don't like the switching of scenes through the camera.  I just find it annoying.  The graphics aren't great, so identifying items is difficult.  Not being able to skip scenes is annoying, too.  I don't care what the characters are saying!  Anyway, not for me.  I really dislike this series.

### 4/5 — Good

*2016-02-28, version 1.0.0*

Graphics are good and so is the story line. Enjoyable.

### 4/5 — Mystery

*2015-11-23, version 1.0.0*

So far so good!

### 4/5 — Final cut 3

*2015-10-17, version 1.0.0*

Love these games but this one is full of problems.  Firstly when closing down and opening later, I have had to repeat a scene.  Secondly, after the Egyptian scene I was supposed to go to the cemetery.  I found myself back at Linda's house with no way but to redo the next scenes again.  Hint and skip stuck

### 2/5 — Inexcusable

*2015-06-18, version 1.0.0*

Remind me to never buy another Final Cut again!

The last one in this series, I got nearly halfway through and an inventory item vanished. I had to delete the game, download it again and start from scratch to restore it.

In this game, I got to the point of placing the four disks on the projector, only to see them suddenly vanish. Nothing I do will restore them so I can continue. Looks like I need to restart this one, too. If I hadn't already paid, I wouldn't bother. As it is, I will never buy another game in this series again!!!

Update: skipped the game and got past that. Later, when you need to rearrange the stones on the picture frame, that one totally failed to function as well. You couldn't move them and they would disappear. Had to skip that one.

Crash, crash, crash. The "Making of" in the Extras doesn't work. Sloppy.

### 4/5 — Worth it!!

*2015-04-11, version 1.0.0*

Loved it. Nice long game and plenty to keep you thinking. Thumbs up to Big Fish.

### 4/5 — Charlsy

*2015-04-06, version 1.0.0*

Loved this was great having to go thru the projector to other scenes loved the interaction with the characters and was a good twist in the end keep up the great work cannot wait for the next one!

### 3/5 — Homage

*2015-03-29, version 1.0.0*

Was a good game until it froze and nothing will help me progress.  Don't feel I got my money's worth and would probably avoid this make of game in the future.

### 2/5 — It was fun while it lasted.

*2015-03-25, version 1.0.0*

Not to say it crashed. However I was in the final scenes and exited for the night. When I started the game it appeared to have taken me back a few steps. No, it had taken me back almost half the game. Tried rebooting the iPad as suggested. Nope. All that time gone.

### 4/5 — Fun but easy.

*2015-03-23, version 1.0.0*

Fun but was to easy even with out help.

### 1/5 — Hint/skip buttons not working. So frustrating.

*2019-07-04, version 1.0.0*

I’m getting a refund. What a waste of time.

### 1/5 — Impossible to finish. Don't waste your $

*2017-02-26, version 1.0.0*

Very poor user's interface on the iPad. Screen is frequently unresponsive. Sometimes it corrects if you restart the game but after hours of back and forth I gave up. Don't waste your money

### 1/5 — Pat

*2016-11-06, version 1.0.0*

Could be great but keeps crashing after 2 minutes of playing. Not buying the full game unless it changes

### 1/5 — Final Straw!

*2016-04-28, version 1.0.0*

Crash! Crash! Crash! Crash! Crash! Restart with new profile...Crash! Crash! Reloaded and was trapped mid-game in an area without the right tools to escape! Hint button disabled itself, as did the area transfer buttons! I am deleting and getting my money back. Big Fish, get some quality control before you release these wastes of money and time!

### 1/5 — Good concept. Horrible game system. Horrible Help

*2015-09-15, version 1.0.0*

I already wrote a review which I can only assume bigfish felt was inappropriate because they did not post it. I did get an email stating that if I wanted a refund i had to contact Apple with ordering info. Too too much! Overall DISAPPOINTED!
 At least give me a credit to get a new game

### 1/5 — Please update

*2015-08-13, version 1.0.0*

Continues to crash even after updates. Waiting for an update that fixes it. Its a shame, i like the series and enjoyed the other ones

### 1/5 — Glitchy, glitchier, glitchiest

*2015-07-18*

It won't let me past the Franklin Hotel. I deleted the game and tried a second time and once again, it won't let me get to the docks. This, along with various disappearing inventory items and other glitches such as the address holder in the car removing addresses, makes it the most unplayable game I've tried so far. And I've played many! I used to think Eipix was the best but lately, because of this and also a similar experience with The Seal of Solomon, I'm reevaluating and looking for other developers that are more reliable. Sorry guys. I'm scared of your games now. I'm playing in an iPad mini with iOS 8.

### 1/5 — Still buggy in May 2015

*2015-05-13*

Have paid and got through several chapters but got locked into a dead end where i had retrieved a key but then didn't have it when i needed to insert in door. Changed my login name and started the game over. it was annoying but finally got back to and beyond where i hung up before. now i got thrown back several puzzles and am above the train station in the dark.  And that is where I will leave this game. At $7 these are making somebody a lot of money. i think users are justified expecting that Big Fish do a better job of vetting the releases. That IMO is part of what I'm paying for.

### 1/5 — Fix

*2015-03-30, version 1.0.0*

For one of the more pricier games... At least ensure it works ! 
Freezes non stop ... Hint and skip button hasn't worked once ... Infuriating !!!! 
Looked so good too! 

 By the time you get an update ~ interest will be lost and on to something else ... 
Waste of money :( Thanks

### 1/5 — Final cut homage

*2015-03-27, version 1.0.0*

Sorry big fish but very disappointed I have paid for the full version on several games and had no problem unfortunately this is no the case with this  one.... I have had to play some scenes over and over as it takes me back to scenes already complete not I'm stuck in the cemetery and it won't let me walk back out ?? Fix it or a refund please

### 5/5 — Final cut: homage hd

*2024-02-11, version 1.0.0*

Love it. 👍👍👍👍👍J.F. 2024

### 5/5 — Big fish

*2023-02-05, version 1.0.0*

I love it

### 5/5 — Great story

*2021-07-06, version 1.0.0*

This is one of the best hidden objects games I’ve played in awhile. It has a great story and graphics, super fun!

### 5/5 — Final Cut: Homage

*2017-01-15*

Extremely creative! Especially the HOP's. There were surprises and twists within the HOP's. There are clever layers within layers regarding the game and clues. I was happy when the game did not end quickly like so many do. This game designer makes the other games seem to be two dimensions by comparison.  I hope to purchase many more games in the future by this designer. . .

### 5/5 — Highly highly recommended

*2015-11-27, version 1.0.0*

Great visual graphics! Great story! Have 3 levels of difficulty to choose from. Just awesome! Buy it and try! Definitely a good purchase! : )

### 5/5 — Loved it

*2015-09-17, version 1.0.0*

I read the other reviews and it seems many people had problems with the early releases of the game which is a pity as this is s great game, I just love the series, story, graphics, duration, etc. I would thoroughly recommend this game to everyone but would also suggest games are not released until thoroughly tested! Bring on Final Cut 4, can't wait to see it!

### 5/5 — Final cut homage

*2015-07-17, version 1.0.0*

### 5/5 — Final Cut Homage

*2015-03-05, version 1.0.0*

Great game, but had difficulty figuring out how to solve puzzles. Did not know how to arrange blocks around picture. Know explanation in guide either.

### 5/5 — Awesome game!

*2015-03-03, version 1.0.0*

Love the game. Had a great storyline. Can't wait for more. Wonderful job!

### 5/5 — Luvuto
