### 2/5 — Missing inventory

*2026-08-14, version 1.8.3*

Item disappeared from inventory

### 2/5 — Broken and unplayable

*2026-03-22, version 1.7.8*

I have had 3 game breaking bugs, causing me to throw in the towel. First, the game just randomly deleted my save as I was about halfway through the game. I wrote emails to the developer, no response. Supposedly there’s a way to enter an ID code to jump to a point later in the game, but the section for that on the website is just blank and abandoned

I ended up starting over, catching up, then got about 2/3 through the game. There is a puzzle box similar to scrabble, in which there are 2 rewards. I got the first one, but then the second one did not trigger the win condition, no reward, so I got softlocked. Again, wrote to the developer - no response

The game was pretty good otherwise, very challenging, I loved the camera and notebook for tracking clues and unsolved puzzles. Art style is… bad. But serviceable for a mobile game. But given that the game locked me out multiple times (it also deleted my save a SECOND time after the puzzle issue), I can’t really recommend it to anyone.

Devs - fix and test your games and respond to customers. This game is old and should have all this patched out by now.

### 4/5 — Very good adventure

*2026-02-10, version 1.7.8*

Pity that the THINK bug in the desk word puzzle is not fixed. Otherwise fun.

### 4/5 — Bug(s?) stop play

*2026-01-29, version 1.7.8*

About halfway through game, solved spinning coloured disc puzzle but box was empty. Looked online and found that others also had this problem (and others) but no solution so can’t complete game.

### 3/5 — Pictures I take aren’t showing up

*2024-02-28, version 1.7.5*

In Forever Lost episode 2 when I take pictures for later use they’re blank when I open them.

### 3/5 — Fix bugs pls

*2024-02-10, version 1.7.5*

This my fave game, but unfortunately there is a bugs in the photo album that does not appear as result of the photo. Hope you can fix it immedietly (iPad Air 5 iOS 17.3)

### 4/5 — Glitch in canteen wooden pieces puzzle

*2024-02-08, version 1.7.5*

I see another reviewer posted about this glitch a year ago with no response from developers.  I have purchased many a Glitch game because there are absolutely wonderful developers the helm who create amazing games.  However, I am severely disappointed that I can not finish this game.  In the canteen, the wooden pieces puzzle freezes completely when attempting to put down the pieces.

### 3/5 — Great concept but glitchy

*2024-02-06, version 1.7.5*

Loved episode 1 and just started episode 2. The camera takes blank pictures, which makes it almost impossible to solve puzzles without clicking back and forth a bunch or taking screenshots. I’ve got an iPhone 13 mini running iOS 17.2.1. If they fix that it’s an easy 5 stars

### 3/5 — Camera bug

*2024-01-31*

jogo ta com a câmera bugada, infelizmente fica muito mais difícil e chato sem um recurso que o próprio jogo dá, você não poder utilizá-lo por um bug que nem desinstalando e instalando denovo funciona

### 2/5 — Camera not working

*2024-01-21, version 1.7.5*

My camera isn’t working. Whenever I try to take a picture it’s just blank. JF2S63X47Y

### 3/5 — Camera won’t work

*2024-01-12*

I bought the package and my game camera does not work for episode 2. This makes it more difficult to solve the puzzles because I have to keep coming back to check codes or writing them down. 
I have tried to delete the game and download it again and that didn’t fix the problem.

### 2/5 — Not working properly anymore

*2024-01-03, version 1.7.5*

I love the series but went to play this again and taking photographs isn’t working anymore. I just get a blank image.

### 3/5 — Can’t play

*2023-12-10, version 1.7.5*

I love playing the forever lost but on #2 the camera isn’t story puctures

### 1/5 — Also reporting no arrow in first room

*2023-10-27, version 1.7.4*

I truly enjoy the Forever Lost games.I was in the mood to play Forever Lost 2. My iPad is up-to-date. I also want to report that the arrow doesn’t loadIn the first room so you can’t do anything. If you pull up inventory or pictures, you can’t get out of it. Please fix.

### 2/5 — Bug report

*2023-10-25, version 1.7.4*

The go back button was not working so I was stuck on the screen with the diary and puzzle and couldn't play at all!!

### 1/5 — Do not buy, does not work!

*2023-10-24, version 1.7.4*

I am using an iPad pro with iPadOS 17. Just bought the app and it is unusable. Keep loosing the icons. Opened the first red book and there is no button for closing it and going back. I lost my money!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Space encroachers

*2024-09-15, version 1.7.8*

In the game I have beaten the high score several times but I still have no token. I have no idea whether I’m doing something wrong or it’s glitching. Can’t find a help option anywhere.

### 1/5 — Same bugs as others

*2024-02-23, version 1.7.5*

As others have said, it freezes on the checkers puzzle and photos do not show on either iPhone or iPad. Needs an update to be playable.

### 1/5 — Camera doesn’t work!!

*2024-02-20, version 1.7.5*

I am enjoying this but the camera doesn’t work. If fixed this would be a 5 star!!

### 1/5 — Fix the camera

*2024-02-08, version 1.7.5*

Camera doesn’t work- it’s just blank. Impossible to play

### 1/5 — Ohne Kamerafunktion kein Spielspaß

*2024-02-04*

Leider sind alle geschossenen Bilder mit der „Kamera“ braun/leer, sodass man keine Hinweise hat. Ohne diese macht das Spiel keinen Spaß. Schade

### 1/5 — Blank Photos

*2024-02-02, version 1.7.5*

As others have reported, just get blank photos when taking pictures. Makes the game near impossible having to rely on memory alone. Please fix.

### 1/5 — Camera does't work

*2024-02-01*

I use ipad pro11

### 1/5 — Forever lost 2 HD

*2023-12-03, version 1.7.4*

Loved the game first time round. Decided to play again. Downloaded after update but the game is unplayable. Game controls disappear after you inspect clues no return button, inventory, camera, or photo album. Just stuck on the same screen.

### 1/5 — Developer please fix! Game unplayable!

*2023-11-28, version 1.7.4*

The back button doesn’t work from the start making the game completely unplayable. Using iPad iOS 17.1.1.

### 1/5 — Broke

*2023-11-24, version 1.7.4*

Stuck in first room, no backing out.

### 5/5 — Amazing game from an incredible crew

*2025-01-21, version 1.7.8*

Just finished playing this through for the second time in a year and realized i never left a review. I absolutely LOVE this game and once it was over, I just wanted to forget the puzzles enough to be able to play it again. Forever Lost is a great series. Many thanks and kudos to the creators!

### 5/5 — Love Forever Lost Episode 2

*2024-09-25, version 1.7.8*

Even more than Episode 1.  I did a better job figuring things out with this Episode, maybe I’m getting better.  I am glad the puzzles weren’t too hard and the hints were super helpful.  Only had to google a few of the tough ones.   Keep it up!  Make more of this type of game.

### 5/5 — Hooked!

*2024-07-06, version 1.7.7*

I played the first episode on the Switch and when I saw they were available for the iOS, I knew I had to get the rest. I love that there’s a camera (with an editing mode to take notes!!!) to take photos of clues and the puzzles themselves were brilliant and fun. The puns were bonuses, too! Escape games are one of my faves, but Glitch takes it to a whole new level.

### 5/5 — Got this game immediately after playing the first!

*2024-02-06, version 1.7.5*

Great game play, the story just gets better and better. A little more challenging than the first game but not that bad that long term and new players cant enjoy it.   Its logical and not jsut the average point and click.  Really loved it.

### 5/5 — Great!

*2023-09-20, version 1.7.1*

The storyline was gripping all the way through each episode. I hated it to end. By the time I reached Episode Three… it was harder and harder. But I love a challenge! Loved it !

### 5/5 — Game made with love and care

*2023-04-27, version 1.7.1*

Heart and soul put into this, very thoughtfully made. Love the humour too (not surprised it’s British!) Less grimdark than the last one. There were a few little bugs, usually around puzzles, after a few did make me less patient when I got stuck since I wasn’t sure if I was meant to be brickwalled. But it all came good in the end.

### 5/5 — Great game overall -worth the money.

*2022-10-09, version 1.7*

I like that puzzles made sense and were logical. I did end up checking a walkthrough a few times - it was hard to know where to click.It would have been helpful to be able to see a photo while on the regular game screen. The “ahead to win” gave a giggle.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2022-05-13, version 1.6.4*

If you are a big fan of escape games, you MUST play glitch's.
They are the Best. No need to say other words. 
It is the GREATEST.

### 5/5 — 2022 bug

*2022-05-10, version 1.6.4*

Heads up to anyone who hasn’t played Forever Lost 2 since its last update. A new bug has developed.

Issue: When placing the wooden pieces on the “Draughts” game in the canteen room, the game will instantly freeze.

I’ve tested this issue with an iPad Air 2, iPad Air 4, and iPad 6th Generation all running the newest iOS 15.4.1.

Force quitting the app and reopening it, restarting the iPads, deleting and reinstalling the app — none of these common troubleshooting steps resolves the issue.

I’ve reported the bug to Glitch. Hopefully it can be resolved soon.

I still gave the game a 5 star rating as it’s so good.

### 5/5 — Second instalment didn’t disappoint

*2022-04-13, version 1.6.4*

Love it as I knew I would can’t wait for the last instalment to get all my questions answered
