### 2/5 — Gambling Ads

*2026-09-10, version 1.74.7301*

PLEASE STOP WITH ALL THE GAMBLING ADS.  And enough with showing ads that suddenly pop up EVERY BLOODY TIME YOU SOLVE A HIDDEN OBJECTS OR MATCH 3 PUZZLE.  You never had this many ANNOYING ADS in the past.  I don’t mind ads BUT NOT AT THIS FREQUENCY.

### 2/5 — Help

*2026-09-09, version 1.74.7301*

My game won’t update or respond

### 4/5 — Review

*2026-09-09, version 1.74.7301*

The game is fun and addicting. It is frustrating that you don’t get points or credits when you complete the challenge so you can continue playing in the venue you were playing in.Dec

### 4/5 — Warum klappt es nicht?

*2026-09-08*

Update - heute ist es mir endlich gelungen die Werbefreiheit zu kaufen, obwohl ich immer noch nicht weiß, ob sie dauerhaft bleibt.
Der letzte Stern fehlt weiter, bis dieser mehr als nervige, zuckende Hinweispfeil abstellbar ist oder verschwindet. Nicht nur, dass er nervt, er ist auch bei den Suchbildern im Weg! Und völlig überflüssig.  

Seit neuestem passiert es immer wieder, dass Werbung startet, die sich nicht beenden lässt. Nicht durch anklicken ob sie mich interessiert, nicht durch AppStore öffnen, nicht durch spielen. Die einzige Möglichkeit ist, das Spiel neu zu starten. Das ist so nervig. Deshalb habe ich mich gefreut, dass die werbefrei Option aufgetaucht ist. Knapp 12€. Aber wofür genau? Werbefreiheit für immer? Ich finde nirgends Infos. Also habe ich es einfach mal angeklickt - es versucht etwas, aber, außer dem Hinweis , dass ich warten soll, passiert gar nichts! Egal wie lange ich warte. Ich habe alles versucht - Spiel und Tablett neu starten, es zu unterschiedlichen Zeiten angeklickt, laaange warten.... Oft erscheint noch nicht mal der Preis. Kann mir bitte jemand sagen, wie ich an die werbefreie Version komme und wie die Konditionen sind?

**Developer response:** Hallo! Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback und Ihre Erfahrungen. Bitte beachten Sie, dass es sich hierbei um einen einmaligen Kauf handelt, der Interstitial-Anzeigen dauerhaft entfernt. Wenn Sie Probleme mit Ihrem Spiel haben, informieren Sie bitte unsere Kundenbetreuer über die Schaltfläche Feedback senden im G5 Friends-Menü - sie werden Ihnen helfen!

### 3/5 — I like this game

*2026-09-08, version 1.74.7301*

Too expensive. I like this game but I feel that many of the levels are too hard and some items are nearly invisible.

### 5/5 — Interesting

*2026-09-07*

This game is really addictive; love playing it.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! It's wonderful to hear that you find the game interesting.

### 5/5 — Match 3

Great

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2026-09-07, version 1.74.7301*

Beautiful graphics and lots of fun

### 5/5 — Expensive

*2026-09-07, version 1.74.7301*

This game is put together very well. The scenes are beautiful and playing is fun.  There are no ads, which is great. But you do have to pay with a cost for your gems and gifts and things. Which I would rather have than watching all those ads. I’ve played this game for years and have really enjoyed it.

### 5/5 — Sherlock

*2026-09-07*

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — New unavoidable ads

*2026-09-10, version 1.74.7301*

Long time user, 1000s of hours … I’m done! Your new format of ads when hitting the claim button is ridiculous 👿
It’s one thing to choose these for an extra 5 moves, another to have zero choice in sitting through the repetitive, AI, treat me like an idiot inclusions. 
Not cool, and definitely doesn’t pass the pub test

### 1/5 — Not great!

*2026-09-09, version 1.74.7301*

They just added long…… ads. I’m done

### 1/5 — Graphics and ads

*2026-09-09, version 1.74.7301*

I’ve been playing since 2020 and notice that the graphics from Sherlock’s room to now have completely gone downhill. It’s a shame because it makes me not want to play this game anymore and find new games with integrity to stick with the initial vision

### 1/5 — Muito bom

*2026-09-07*

Jogo muito interessante, pois tem vários tipos de cenas para achar objetos, diferenças,etc, mas tem Match 3 também. Às vezes, na “pressa” de acertar, gastamos dinheiro no jogo, mas não parece ser imprescindível. Tem uns bugs.
Reavaliação:
Agora em 2026 tem novidades, mas também anúncios. Concordo em pagar alguma coisa, mas não exagere.

**Developer response:** Obrigado pelo seu comentário! Se você estiver enfrentando algum problema com seu jogo, informe nossos representantes de suporte ao cliente através do botão Enviar Feedback no menu Amigos ou pelo e-mail support@g5.com - eles estarão prontos para ajudar!

### 1/5 — Sherlock Holmes

*2026-09-07, version 1.74.7301*

I have not not received the new game for the month of August. I have sent so many messages and all I get is BS answers in return. Today is August 8th and still nothing. I’ve reset the app etc. nothing works. I’m so done with this Today is August 27th and still no help and I have no game

### 1/5 — Interstitial ads

*2026-09-06, version 1.74.7301*

Once these interstitial ads are gone without having to pay this ridiculous $10, I’ll be glad to change my review back to 5 stars! This game WAS my favorite but now that these interstitial ads have started, the enjoyable and relaxing gameplay of this amazing game is now GONE! When I emailed support, they tried to make it sound like they were just advertising their other games, but they are NOT. These are irrelevant ads between each level designed to generate revenue for a game that already makes a ton of money on those who pay to play via upgrades and those who already watch ads for additional energy and gems! The only other option is to pay $10 to get rid of the ads - what! They weren’t even there in the first place! This punishes long time players who have been enjoying this game for YEARS. The interstitial ads MUST GO!

### 1/5 — adds and more adds

*2026-09-05, version 1.74.7301*

used to like this game, but today…they added adds…no off…interruptions and mindless.  off to play another game….

### 1/5 — Auto play 3rd party Ads

*2026-09-05*

Title says it all.  Autoplay ads.  Most recent update totally sucks

**Developer response:** Hi there! We're showing ads in our games since they are completely free of charge. We hope that as you check out other G5 products, you will find more exciting games for yourself.

### 1/5 — The worst update

*2026-09-04, version 1.74.7301*

The latest update forces me to see add while finishing the level. So annoying

### 1/5 — Пропала реклама

*2026-09-04*

Без просмотра рекламы нет алмазов, нет алмазов нельзя собрать коллекции, не могу дальше продолжить играть

**Developer response:** Спасибо за Ваш отзыв! Мы предоставляем рекламное пространство для видеороликов, но иногда у провайдеров рекламы заканчивается контент для отображения. Доступность рекламы зависит от нескольких факторов. Как только контент снова появится, Вы сможете наслаждаться видео. Продолжайте играть!

*2026-09-07, version 1.74.7301*

A lot to read but very interesting and a lot of rewards. I appreciate this game not nickel and dimeing me to death like all the rest do. You’ve got a winner with this one Mr Holmes. Thank you so very much.Do you think you could allow us to buy tools with all the coins that have been adding rapidly, PLEASE. Thank you again so very much in advance, I know You’ll work something out.
Your friend Samantha.
