Also I’m not sure if it’s my touch screen, but it’s really hard to grab certain items or the morphing objects. Like clicking everywhere to get a certain item. This could be a cool game if things were a bit more organized. I’ve got to say I’m bummed I paid money for this. ### 1/5 — Can’t play it *2019-04-20, version 1.0.0* Very sadly this game had issues a while back so I deleted it, I’ve downloaded it again and yet again the skip button doesn’t work and non of the buttons work (it does on other games just incase your thinking it’s my phone, it’s not) I can’t input my name nothing works so I can’t move forward and play the game! ### 1/5 — Game doesn’t work *2018-07-02* Touch screen isn’t working, so you can’t actually play the game unfortunately :( ### 1/5 — Game is crap *2018-07-02, version 1.0.0* I know why this game only got an average of 3 stars. It will not even open. Please if you are going to put something on sale make sure it works! ### 1/5 — Doesn't work *2017-04-25, version 1.0.0* App does not work you can't get past typing your name in to start! ### 1/5 — Didn't work *2016-10-28, version 1.0.0* I wasn't able to play because nothing on the screen was responsive. I couldn't type my name in or skip so I just deleted the game. :( lame ### 1/5 — Nothing works *2016-08-25, version 1.0.0* Couldn't skip the starting scene, couldn't even type my name in, deleted immediately. The more BFG games that I download the more disappointed I am. ### 1/5 — Doesn't work *2016-06-03, version 1.0.0* This is the second game that I have downloaded that won't let me past the player name screen! Won't let me click on anything 😡 ### 1/5 — Not working *2016-05-31, version 1.0.0* Does not work on my iPhone 6s ### 1/5 — Doesn't work *2016-05-30, version 1.0.0* It won't recognize my touch , and doesn't for any elephant games ### 1/5 — Another rip off *2016-05-29, version 1.0.0* I have an iPhone 6s, this is the second big fish game that I bought that doesn't work.

It was definitely not one of my favs. Don't know if I can really pinpoint why, I just didn't like it that well. I played it, wasn't sad when it was over, ready to move on. ### 4/5 — Good gameplay, but occasional bugs *2016-06-05, version 1.0.0* The overall play was very good, however the multipart puzzles and the painting minigame suffered from buggy controls. ### 4/5 — Good *2015-07-18, version 1.0.0* Suspense and good story ### 4/5 — Awesome but... *2015-07-10, version 1.0.0* Would have given this game five stars if it wasn't so dark!! Drained my battery by turning my phones brightness all the way up. Loved finding all the collectibles too. Please brighten up the scenes so can play again and give it 5 stars!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
