Needs tweaking

I’m using an IPhone . Every time I try to place an object my whole screen slides. The game isn’t locked on. Any ideas?

Response from developer

Won’t even start

I have tried several times to reset and the game, but all I get is your logo spinning round. Such a shame as love your games but this is completely disappointing ☹️😔

What is going on

It tells me it’s not available in the US but I just played

Hello! Could you please tell us if this provlem is still relevant to you? We'll look into it!

Good game but bonus has continuity issues

Love the Grim Tales series and this one is as fun as others. However, Bonus Chapter has continuity issues. Who is David? He just suddenly shows up as the villain with no explanation. Nor is there any explanation of the witch and her hatred of Anna. I know some of these mobile games often have missing pieces of information, but this kind of makes the bonus chapter a little less enjoyable because you spend so much time wondering where these people came from.

Another great one Elephant!

Another fantastic game. I’ve been starved of good quality games for so long!
I know to look out for the little elephant now!

Good game but bad function

Game is good and quality is good but it does not work on an iPhone 12 very well because the screen falls off the side of the screen of your phone. Every time you try to pick up a tool you swipe out of the game. It’s very annoying. You also can’t see somethings on the screen because they’re not in view.

Problems

I purchased the game, the story boards load but game play screen doesn’t fully load. It is not possible to play. I have purchased several of the Grim Tales but this is a bust.

Response from developer

Hello! We've been experiencing technical since since iOS 14 release and we're doing our best to find a solution as soon as possible. We're very sorry for the inconvenience. Thank you for understanding!

Great game.

I do love Elephant games, this was a bit dark in places making it difficult to find morphing objects. The game itself didn’t seem very long but the bonus was alright. The map was excellent and a good variety of puzzles of mixed ability but the hos were just boring random tapping. I missed one collectible which I couldn’t get at the end and what was the point of collecting screen saver pictures when there wasn’t anything to do with them, so considering these points I have deducted one star. I still look every day trying to find reduced games to no avail. I had an email to say Chimeras 11 the price of greed was available on the App Store but it isn’t, just the original game which I have already played, it is time these developers helped us during the lockdown.

Very enjoyable

Another good game in this series, good storyline and puzzles but wished it could have been a tad longer, it was quite long but was enjoying it so much, but bonus game too short.

Grim tales

Love these games...excellent

Fantastic game

Amazing graphics and storyline but should have been a longer game for the price of $10.99. Really enjoyed it but.

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback! 🌟 We’re glad you enjoyed the graphics and storyline. We truly value your thoughts and will consider them as we work on future games. Stay tuned for more adventures! 🎮✨

Ok what happened to searching for HO games?

Ok, I played the trial game. Sorry. Still not paying $6.99 for an hour long, maybe game I will only play once. Not unless your Five-Bn UK LTD & I still try to buy those on sale. That is my personal choice, do as you please, and please refrain from attacking my choice. I don’t attack your decisions, opinions, etc.
That being said, after this last update, the search history is not the same. When you search Hidden Object and adjust to most recent, the games are different. Where’s the latest one the dark something or other? They used to make for Big Fish & this may have been(?) their 1st solo game on their own. And it seems like there are probably a lot more missing? Some Elephant and DominiApp games? I didn’t study this too hard but something is off for sure? Has anyone else experienced this as well?
I’m writing this on my favorite holiday, Halloween. To give you a reference point & I just updated my iPad last night to iOS 13.2. I’ve gotten this result all day. Tried multiple, different times. Changed the phrasing, but that seems to only affect what automatically pops up.
I kindly thank you in advance for any feedback and I wish you all the spookiest and safest of All Hallows Eve!
Let’s send some prayers and thoughts of intention of water to California! The thought of all the animals that are taken during these events breaks my heart to the core!
***Update*** It seems the search glitch was momentary and everything is back to normal! So disregard my previous inquiry.

Another great game in this series!

I have enjoyed all the games in this series, and this one was pretty darn good! I personally didn't find the game to be short at all, but I suppose everyone has different definitions of how they perceive that. The storyline was fresh, Richard is a hoot as always, and Alice was likable from the start. Thanks so much for this awesome game, looking forward to the next one in the series!

Was worried it would be dark but could see scenery quite well. Enjoyed the story and tasks. No problems, kept my interest.

Grim Tales: Guest from the Future by LynxMinx

I really enjoy this series, and the highlight of course is Richard Gray (Anna’s father, the talking skull), because he’s hilarious, witty, sardonic and rude to his daughter; however he does help the investigation. This game is typical Elephant. There were no elements that were incredibly novel or unique, but the gameplay was still entertaining and addictive. The graphics were beautiful. The storyline captured my interest, and there was a plethora of tasks at each location. My biggest gripe is length! For what we are paying, we should be getting games that have double the gameplay. For that reason, I am deducting a half star, so my true rating will be 4.5 stars.
UPDATE: To all players! I still cannot furnish you with details, but please ensure that you read all of my reviews going forward. Hopefully by Christmas I will make an announcement that will blow your minds. If you ever doubted that karma exists, I can tell you that it does, and that we will all have redemption from the BigFish debacle. I decided that they weren’t going to get away with destroying our genre and devastating the players, so I did something about it! I just can’t tell you yet. I promise you this: you’re all going to have a great Christmas, courtesy of Lynxie. Let the speculation begin. Any gamers who want to try guessing may do so. I will entertain all “conspiracy theories.”
Happy gaming to all!
