### 3/5 — Le texte en français ! Au secours !

*2026-08-02, version 1.06*

Petit jeu très sympa, beaux graphismes, univers intéressant. Mais alors la traduction des dialogues en français, c’est la catastrophe. Il y a des fautes de syntaxes pratiquement à toutes les phrases…

### 5/5 — Very fun!

*2025-11-27, version 1.06*

Good game for a few hours of enjoyment, awesome art style and storyline. Puzzles are difficult enough to get you thinking but not overly so. (Second chapter harder than the first) Really hope the developers haven’t abandoned the game and the third chapter releases eventually…

### 2/5 — Где продолжение?

*2025-11-14, version 1.06*

Купила платную часть, а там всего одна глава и продолжение следует. Как я поняла по отзывам продолжения нет уже 3 года 
Сама игра классная, несмотря на корявый перевод

### 5/5 — 等到頸都長

*2025-09-06, version 1.06*

真係唔好課
3年前comment:唔好課幾時先有更新

### 5/5 — 简单解密

*2025-06-22, version 1.06*

可爱画面 揭秘故事也很好

### 5/5 — 👍

*2025-04-16, version 1.06*

Классная игра,затягивает!

### 5/5 — Frage

*2025-04-07, version 1.06*

Das Spiel an sich ist echt gut gemacht, aber wo bleibt die Fortsetzung? Ich warte schon seit mindestens einem halben Jahr und es hat sich immernoch nichts getan.

### 4/5 — Красиво, но перевод и музыка подкачали

*2025-03-31, version 1.06*

Плюсы: милая графика, стимпанк как я и хотела, история интересная, под конец первой главы переживала (прошла только бесплатную часть), головоломки разнообразные, решения квестов кажутся логичными
Минусы: очень корявый перевод на русский язык, одна и та же музыка(грустная), три подсказки быстро заканчиваются и потом не восстанавливаются (может раз в сутки, я не ждала столько)

### 5/5 — Game Play on Repeat

*2025-03-30, version 1.06*

I love this game! 💘 
Can’t wait for Gear Enigmas: Aqua City to come out!!! 🤩

### 4/5 — Hard work

*2025-01-25, version 1.06*

I love this style of game and I really want to enjoy it properly, but despite saying “works on this iPad” the game wouldn’t even load so I’m playing it on my mini phone which makes seeing any clues very very difficult. If I could play on my (yes, ancient) iPad Air, I’d give it five stars.
