Strap in for a wild ride through lite versions of several key FH games, plus brand-new adventures. The puzzles are tough but not unsolvable. The art is top-notch. The music is spooky and atmospheric. Everything you love about FH is here! The reason this gets a 4 instead of a 5 is because there are some bugs in this version. The forest scene gets stuck on the left side of the map and seems to scroll through more steps than is shown on the grid. At times, it appears to default back to the beginning of the map. It’s unclear if that’s a glitch or not, but it’s confusing and not in a fun, puzzle way. Another bug is that the first Nightmare scene crashes repeatedly in the iOS for iPad version (14.6). Developers, fix the bugs and I’ll bump the rating to a 5. It really is good! ### 4/5 — 재밌어요 *2021-06-15* 세가지 전작 합친내용에 추가로 내용이 많이 들어가있습니다. 재미는 있으나 오류가 종종 있어 챕터를 처음부터 다시 플레이해야했던게 몇번 있어요. 그게 좀 아쉽습니다. ### 5/5 — Great but there’re bugs *2021-06-11* I’m a long term fan, can’t wait to play the new game! However there seems to have a bug in the forest. **Developer response:** Hello and thank you for playing Forgotten Hill games. Can you tell us what issue did you have in the forest? Thanks again! ### 5/5 — Amazing! *2021-06-11* Another fantastic point and click in the series. Love these games. ### 5/5 — Управление *2021-06-10* Постоянно виснет управление, предметы становятся не активны. Исправте, пожалуйста, невозможно играть. ### 5/5 — Прохождение *2021-06-10* Не могу пройти уровень где монетки кошка человек корона оса ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Don’t play if you have a phobia of certain bugs *2022-09-08* There were huge spiders in the second room - I paid to play this game. There should be a warning - many people around the world have arachnophobia. Thanks ### 1/5 — Broken *2022-08-07* Forest level is broken, I somehow made it outside of the paths and now just have endless options in all directions. Going to ask for a refund ### 1/5 — Freezes up iPad pro11 and iphone7 *2022-07-12* I really was enjoying this game, but early on it froze. Have uninstalled and installed only to get a little bit further along in the game before freezing again. Cant get past where I need to collect skeleton key behind heart in cross. Such a shame as I think I would love this game. So only 1 star unless it can be fixed. Have emailed developer. ### 1/5 — I want a refund *2022-05-26* I love forgotten hill but this game is the same as one of their previous games called fall. They just changed the graphics but the puzzles and rooms are the exact game. That’s really lame when you are asking people to pay for the game. ### 1/5 — Absolutely dissapointed *2021-08-17* Im still his huge fan and would love to pay for his ‘new’ work but this is not what i expected. Just download his free version games. Don’t worry about if you miss something they are 98% same with this. ### 1/5 — Don’t pay for this app- it’s all available for free *2021-06-30* For a Rusty Lake clone it’s not bad. Some decent puzzles. Better off playing Rusty Lake if you haven’t already first, as it’s much more polished Please don’t pay for this app though- the free versions cover 95% what’s available in the paid versions A bit dishonest if you ask me ### 1/5 — Restarts if you close app *2021-06-11* I was almost at the end (I think?) when I had to close the app. When I opened it to keep playing, the opening scene started again. So that’s fun. **Developer response:** Hi and thanks for playing Forgotten Hill First Steps. We are very sorry your progress have been reset. This does not happen on our end but we are investigating and will make sure this won't happen again in the future. ### 2/5 — Не открывается приложение *2021-11-01* А я купила за 179р :( 2 звёзды за то что другие игры норм **Developer response:** Hello, we've fixed the issue and the app now should work on all devices. Could you please update and try again? Thanks for your patience! ### 2/5 — Сомнительные ощущения *2021-07-12* Не понятно за что деньги платишь, если можно все тоже самое пройти бесплатно, просто по отдельности эти игры. В общем, к скачиванию не советую. Все эти игры есть в бесплатном доступе. За сами игры ставлю 5! Всегда жду новые части. ### 3/5 — Love this game but something is wrong *2022-07-28* I’ve been playing the games on my Como for sometime now and decided to purchase for my phone. I click on things on the screen and it won’t budge. I’m replaying the games I had on my computer so I know what needs to be click but it won’t let me click anything on my phone! :( hope this gets fix ! Won’t be able to keep playing with out the click working ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Excellent! *2022-07-01* I love the FH games. The puzzles are interesting but manageable, and the story of FH is absorbing. I had previously played the free versions of Puppeteer, Surgery etc. but I found plenty of new gameplay in First Steps. And who can complain about paying £1.79 for that? Half the price of a coffee? And I’m proud to say that I persevered with the marble challenge, which was devilishly difficult! Can’t wait for the next Tales instalment! Any chance of a Disillusion 2? 🤞 ### 5/5 — Favorite *2022-02-08* I loved this game. Perfectly challenging enough. The game is very long almost like five games in one! ### 5/5 — My favorite Forgotten Hill yet *2021-11-12* Twice as long as I expected it to be, with interesting puzzles and the perfect amount of creepiness and spookiness. ### 5/5 — Wunderbar *2021-10-02* Ich bin einfach immer wieder begeistert, überrascht, amüsiert über diesen Einfallsreichtum, der so aus diesem ganzen Spiele-Schrott herausragt. Ihr macht wirklich etwas Besonderes und ich freue mich jetzt schon auf Euer nächstes Spiel, das hoffentlich nicht allzu lange auf sich warten lässt, herzlichen Dank für Eure tolle Arbeit und viele, viele Stunden Spielspass ### 5/5 — Great game *2021-08-31* I have always enjoyed playing these kinds of games. This is one of the best. The puzzles are challenging. The great thing about the game is that it offers hints, double hints, and then does the solution for you if you can’t figure it out. I also found a walkthrough online. There was one puzzle I couldn’t figure out. Maybe it will be easier for you. I also liked the artwork, even though it was a little bit gory. You collect things like eyeballs, hearts, and brains. ### 5/5 — Worth it *2021-07-23* I don’t agree with the reviewer who said that most of this game us available for free - I found a lot in this game that was new to me. Enjoyable with some tough puzzles. ### 5/5 — Баги и ошибки. *2021-07-04* Не работают слова Memories и Nightmares в головоломке по поиску слов. Исправьте, пожалуйста. IPhone SE ### 5/5 — A great game! *2021-06-19* Loved it as I have loved all of them. One slight glitch, I never got the game book…, the rest was very cool and morbid! Great job! ### 5/5 — Brilliant *2021-06-16* Love these games , always pre order them and want disappointed. Just wish they were bit longer ### 5/5 — Updated review *2021-06-15* Just finished the whole game - excellent. Love these games from FM and looking forward to the next chapter in the Tales series. More please 👍🏼😊 **Developer response:** Hello! Thanks for playing Forgotten Hill First Steps and for your report. Updates normally do not reset savings, so definitely something went wrong. It didn't happened on our end but we are investigating and will make sure this won't happen again in the future. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
