### 3/5 — PLEASE FIX IT

*2025-12-25*

Everytime I try to turn on the faucet to fill the Cauldron the faucet won’t turn on and I tried over and over again but it still won’t turn on so please fix.

### 5/5 — Игра - топчик! 💞

*2025-12-12*

Мне очень понравилась 2 часть! Ничего нигде не зависало, все окей. Эта часть очень интересная и тут много головоломок, они сложнее чем в 1 части, особенно тяжело у сестер ( ну для меня было так )
Эта часть намного страшнее 1, но не рисовкой, а атмосферой. Пока играла все время была такая нагнетающая атмосфера, что даже когда я изгнала сестер я боялась что они заберут у Фрэн мистера полночь 🌙
Всем советую, игра очень интересная😊

### 5/5 — ❤️

### 5/5 — Magical game!

*2025-03-21*

This game is amazing, the mysteries you have to solve make your brain run! Fran Bow is an exceptional game; there are always deeper stories within. The twins really caught my eye, the fact that there is a story imbedded within a different story is magical. Thank you for this game and Little Misfortune. ❤️❤️❤️
