### 4/5 — Beautiful game but tough

*2024-06-02*

Really beautiful artwork. Love  the concept but a lot of the puzzles are not logical for me and I’ve had to refer to a walkthrough on several occasions which is a shame. Looking forward to trying more games.

### 4/5 — I’m Stuck

*2022-07-17*

I really enjoy the Forgotten Hill games but have to say the Dark/Beyond side is quite difficult and requires hints to understand what you need to do next.  I’m currently stuck in Beyond the Library. I’ve made the Mandrake bread but every time I click on it, the game enlarges it like a photo or book so I can’t give it to the hungry goblin boy. Is this a glitch - the game doesn’t seem to consider it an inventory object?

### 4/5 — A giant step in the right direction

*2021-07-18*

So, I was very critical of previous titles in this series- they were essentially Rusty Lake clones.

However, Delusion is well worth paying for. While some of the sound effects and puzzles are a bit ripped off, there so many positive aspects to this puzzler.

The story is unique, it actually ties in all the previous titles. Without spoiling, the way the story progresses makes it well worth the money.

I would like to go in to further detail but I don’t want to spoil! All I can say is it’s a very strong puzzler, which while it is derivative of Rusty likes in places, carves it’s own path too.

Def worth the money, if you like creepy puzzlers you will love this app.

### 3/5 — Okay…well

*2021-06-30*

I LOVE escape room puzzle games and I have played most of these now and all of Rusty Lake. Rusty Lake is FAR SUPERIOR. Why? Because the logic is sound. You find a clue and it makes sense where the next step is and if you don’t figure it out and have to resort to a walkthrough, you are like “omggggggg I’m stupid”. This one?? Every time I’ve used a walk through (a LOT) I’m like “why on earth would THAT be a thing??” It’s no fun to just go room to room clicking on things without logic. That’s not a puzzle - that’s trial and error. 
I will play till the end because I’m a completionist but meh. This one is making me mad. 3 stars because it still looks cool.

### 5/5 — Fantastic!

*2020-12-22*

One of the best puzzle games I’ve played thus far—and I’ve tried many! I’ll play anything these developers make in the future, if the quality and attention to details is even half as good as this! I am always on the hunt for good, engaging puzzle games and this one brings all the best elements together: entertaining stories, interesting characters, great graphics, mental challenges, the works!

Finished Disillusion and am just floored at how good it was. I want to start all over again but I am moving on to the other forgotten hill series games.

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2020-11-14*

Fantastic click and collect adventure game with a macabre twist

### 4/5 — Very good

*2020-11-06*

Overall very well done but some puzzles make no sense like the poster (with the holes) trying to figure out what order the numbers are meant to be entered.  Had to look up a walkthrough.

### 5/5 — 10/10

*2020-09-29*

Such a good series of games!!

### 5/5 — Wonderful - loved every minute.

*2020-07-29*

What a wonderful game.  Lots of quirky challenges and gore.  I found some puzzles a little challenging, but once you get used to the style they become more obvious (and there are plenty of walkthroughs on YouTube if you get really stuck).  Please make more of these games!

### 5/5 — Get it- you will love it!

*2020-05-09, version 1.1.23*

Manuela- Thanks so much for making these! This was my favorite by far! All your games remind me of a mix of choose your own adventure books and old PC games like Hugo’s House of Horrors and Black Cauldron! 

Why I love them- Perfect mix of spooky and challenging. I love the mystery and puzzle solving without having elaborate battles that I’m not good at to progress the story like some other games. 

This game has so many improvements! Excellent hint system and being able to pass if you get REALLY stuck. The Camera! I play on my my phone and for the first time I did not have to write everything on scraps of paper. My memory is terrible and the camera was an amazing addition. I also loved all the backstories and books. I lived for the baking and the monster poop! 

Suggestions- It was really hard to know when I was finished with an area and where to go next since multiple areas were all open. I felt there needed to be a bit more direction on what to do next especially once I got to saving the kids. I could not tell if I was supposed to be reviving the expired ones and could not remember where the heck they all were. Overall great!

### 5/5 — Больше таких игр!!!

*2020-04-07*

Лучшая из лучших. Мозги придётся включить) Стоит своих денег. Крутой сюжет, жду продолжения

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2020-01-21*

I have played just about every high quality escape game like the room, forever lost, ect. This game ranks up there with the best! Good job.

### 1/5 — Stuck in Sculptural Arts!

*2024-11-05*

I’ve been at this game for awhile and I’m totally stuck at the 4 statues and also the projector room.  I’ve watched multiple walkthroughs, though not sure they’re for IOS.  No matter how many times I use the sheet on the right poses I don’t get the drawing.  And even when I look at a walkthrough and copy the exact design for the projection room the door never unlocks for me.  Help me please and I’ll update my rating.

### 1/5 — It’s not work

*2021-11-04*

I paid and downloaded this game. But it’s not work. Please refund my purchase

**Developer response:** Hi there, the app has been updated and now should work on all devices. Thanks for your patience

### 1/5 — This is the same game as DH: the library

*2020-12-31, version 1.1.24*

Looks like it’s an earlier version but it’s the same game. I thought it was another installment in a series.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2020-08-13, version 1.1.24*

Seriously the worst game I’ve ever purchased.

### 1/5 — Can’t move forward because of glitch

*2020-03-26*

I am at the point where I need to pick up a gun before I can progress any further. However many times I click on the gun, I can’t pick it up. 1 star until this is resolved.

**Developer response:** Hello, so sorry about that. The issue has been solved in version 1.1.24, please update your app and let us know if you need any further help. Thanks a lot.

### 1/5 — Не берётся пистолет

*2019-12-21*

Добрый день,просьба исправить баг,со стены невозможно взять пистолет.Соответственно игру до конца не пройти((((Как исправите-исправлю оценку.Играю на iPad Pro 12.9

**Developer response:** Hello, so sorry it took so long. The issue has been solved in version 1.1.24, please update your app and let us know if you need any further help. Thanks a lot.

### 2/5 — このシリーズ作品の、

*2019-12-15*

iOS版は全てプレイしてきた上で、このシリーズは今まで通りの短編向きだと思いました。全シリーズに共通する、通路と部屋とドアとディフォルメグロテスクファンタジー、これだけで長編を押し切るのは無理があるかなー。カメラや後半は時計も使っての、重ね合わせの裏世界、の設定も失敗していると感じました。最初から裏世界みたいなものなので、疲れる材料にしかなっていなかったです。

### 3/5 — 유료로 하기엔 좀

*2023-06-04*

이스케이프게임 워낙 좋아해서 더 할것도 없고 이 시리즈 모두 해봤기에 이것도 기대하고 플레이 해봤는데 물론 그냥 게임이만 이 시리즈 자체 분위기가 기괴한건 알지만 아이들 구출하는 여정이고 죽은 아이들도 있다는 결말이 좀 꺼림직하네요 너무 억지로 짜맞춰놔서 난이도 높은것들 많이 해봤지만 도저희 혼자서는 플레이 할 수 없는 스토리에요 돈까지 주고 하기엔 비추요

### 3/5 — Fehler im Spiel

*2022-06-19*

An sich ein gutes Spiel.
Leider kann man es, trotz des Kaufes, nicht zu Ende spielen. Bei der alten Frau und dem Spiel des Teufels hängt sich das Spiel leider auf.

### 3/5 — 정말 재미있게 잘 플레이했지만..

*2022-04-17*

후반부 시계 수리 끝난 다음 나오는 퍼즐들은 개연성이 떨어진다고 느껴져요.
게다가 마지막에 쥐 쏘고나서 앱 강제종료 이후 쥐 시체가 사라져서 열쇠 못얻고 엔딩 못봤습니다

### 5/5 — Супер

*2025-07-04*

Спасибо. Игра супер, самая лучшая

### 5/5 — Great Series!

*2023-03-20*

Came here from The Wardrobe and played Puppeteer and Mementos. Haven’t played this game yet but I’m sure it’s just as good as the other ones. Definitely don’t mind paying for great games. They’re hard to come by these days. I found the bird language in Two Sisters a bit overly challenging (used the walk through for a lot of it) but overall most of the riddles in all the games are the perfect amount of hard, yet do able. Great story. Love these games. Keep making them please :)

### 5/5 — FANTASTIC！！！

*2022-08-12*

The game is totally worth this price！I look forward to your next work^-^

### 5/5 — SOOOO Well worth the 5$

*2021-10-30*

I was initially unsure of whether to pay 5 dollars for this, but it’s actually crazy how much content is in it. Well well well worth it. Puzzles are extremely creative and they will last you a long time, provided that you don’t get as addicted to the game as I was and finished it in several days. Puzzles are challenging for sure and will get you thinking, but not too hard that someone would get stuck often. Anybody unsure of whether or not to get this should really honestly just pay the $5. Well worth it, and you’d be supporting a developer who has consistently (and hopefully will continue to) created great content. With how much creativity goes into these puzzles, the developers really do deserve all the praise and support. Whoever develops these games is doing a great job and I can’t wait for more new content!

### 5/5 — Игра бомба!

*2021-10-11*

Здравствуйте! Игра просто великолепная, очень интересные и разнообразные загадки, красивая картинка и хорошая атмосфера. Единственный недостаток - в книгах и других источниках информации надписи не помещаются на страницу и не получается прочитать всё. Это очень мне мешает, потому что я мечтаю полностью понять сюжет этой франшизы, и читать книги полностью мне необходимо. Можете пожалуйста исправить это, чтобы всё помещалось?

### 5/5 — ios15업데이트한다음 게임이 안열려요

*2021-09-24*

유료결제해서 구매했는데 게임켜면 그냥 꺼져버려요

### 5/5 — Disillusion - top game

*2021-07-30*

Wow! What a brilliant game plenty of puzzles and twists didnt think any game could top Rusty Lake but this is certainly up there 
with it Top marks this is my favourite game for a long while 💯
Well done

### 5/5 — Can’t stop

*2021-05-14*

This is the best escape room app and I have played them all. Totally worth the money. It was hard to put it down! I couldn’t stop and now that I finished it I wish I had taken it slower because I want to keep playing! I love how long this particular game is - there appear to be different levels at first, but then everything connects in the end. Great storyline and great variety of puzzles! 

Well done! Would love to see another game like this, but perhaps less creepy lol!

### 5/5 — Please take down one of the disillusion game

*2021-04-25*

It's very confusing and I ended up paying for both, I thought they’re different.

It's a great game though.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2021-03-15*

A really great game! And a super long story. Live the puzzles and also love the story. Keep going!
