### 2/5 — Klasse, das Big Fish..

*2025-10-29, version 1.0.0*

seine alten Spiele wieder aufarbeitet,hab jetzt einige durchgetestet ,beim Iphone13 funktionieren die meisten leider nicht.Schade!

### 1/5 — Broken

*2023-07-09, version 1.0.0*

This is one of those with the glitch all through the game of everything being in layered multiple white squares. That is not design, its glitching because it hasn’t been updated in a very long time.

### 1/5 — AGAIN!

*2023-07-03, version 1.0.0*

Yet another one with the white bars all through it. 

Can't see to play. 

I'm so sick of these defective useless videos! 

I would NEVER buy another game sight unseen again. Why can't you fix this? There are close to twenty of these junk titles. D you just not want to be bothered?

### 1/5 — Game not working

*2023-06-26, version 1.0.0*

On apple 12 pro there are squares on top of squares. Cannot play.

### 1/5 — Something is wrong

*2023-04-03, version 1.0.0*

Something is wrong with this game. The very first scene which requires my input (not the cutscene) is nothing but a bunch of white squares. I’ve noticed another reviewer mentioned this 2 years ago. That’s more than enough time to address such an issue. I am playing on an iPad on which this game is supposedly compatible

### 1/5 — Da fallos

*2022-12-04, version 1.0.0*

El juego no carga los gráficos

### 1/5 — Graphics all messed up

*2022-10-11, version 1.0.0*

The graphics were a mess…. Big patches of messed up colors.

### 1/5 — Unplayable due to it being glitchy

*2022-10-04, version 1.0.0*

I just downloaded the game the cutscenes are beautiful but the actual gameplay is so glitchy I can’t see anything

### 1/5 — Complete crap whited out graphics

*2022-09-11, version 1.0.0*

Get it fixed or give me my $7 back - massive issues on ipad pro. Cant see anything due to whited out display. Resolution on video extremely poor. Not happy right now Big Fish.

### 1/5 — Unplayable-Massive glitch

*2022-09-07, version 1.0.0*

Graphics are shot. It’s all blown out in white with random boxes. The cut scenes work but nothing else.

### 3/5 — Halloween

I like the game but it is in blocks and blacks out please fix it

### 1/5 — Still broken

*2022-03-18, version 1.0.0*

### 1/5 — Halloween iPad game

*2022-03-06, version 1.0.0*

### 1/5 — Halloween

Can not play as can’t see the screen be great to get my money back

### 1/5 — Problem running on iPad

*2021-11-02, version 1.0.0*

I had to uninstall the game since the game was rendering a bunch of white squares (best way to describe the view) overlaying one another on top of the game, I couldn’t see anything.

### 1/5 — Stupid!

*2021-10-29, version 1.0.0*

What’s the point of playing a game that’s got white boxes mixed with some colors and you got to touch the screen… You have no idea what you’re touching until something pops up and sometimes the white box you got to touch the white box before something else pops up. This game is stupid it’s nothing but shapes with colors mostly just white squares. What’s the point of this game touch the screen and see what pops up because you can’t see crap! This is the worst game SERIOUSLY?!????!🤷‍♂️

### 1/5 — Halloween

*2021-10-28, version 1.0.0*

as many pointed out, this game is unplayable on ios 17, its full of glitches and square textures. waste of money

### 1/5 — Unplayable

*2024-10-19, version 1.0.0*

This is the third Big Fish Games app in the App Store to not be playable. The intro is fine, but when you go to play the game, the images are all in squares. Needs reconfiguring.

### 1/5 — White Splotches

*2024-05-11, version 1.0.0*

It seems I have the same problem as everyone else. When I first downloaded the app, there were so many splotches of white everywhere on the menu so I couldn’t see anything at all. Would wish to know if the developers are trying to fix this or not.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2023-12-29, version 1.0.0*

Bought the premium/ collector's edition and the graphics are awful. White screen, splotches of color and unable to see the game. This was a waste of money. The first disappointing game by elephant/big fish games.

### 5/5 — Halloween Stories Invitation

*2023-10-20, version 1.0.0*

I bought this game several years ago and it is my favorite Halloween game! However when I download the game I can no longer play it because it seems to be corrupted now. Have you had any other players that have addressed this issue? Can it be fixed?

I have been playing Big Fish games for years and love and enjoy your games.

I would appreciate a response from you regarding this game!

Thanks 
Virginia

### 5/5 — good but short

*2020-09-06, version 1.0.0*

main game+bonus game made it a full game, that means that the main game was very short. Not acceptable for full price, but ok for discounted price.

8/10 Would play this game again. Ok storyline and mini games. 

Good spooky graphics.

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2019-12-08, version 1.0.0*

One of the best games I have played.  You had the opportunity to stay in a select set of rooms instead of being all over the place and not knowing where to go. Easy enough to have fun except the puzzles were challenging. Hope I can find more games like this one.  Love the spooky theme.

### 5/5 — Awesome game

*2019-10-03, version 1.0.0*

It is kinda hard and terrifying at first but once you get used to it.it is so much more terrifying and kinda easier if your looking  1 of the best Halloween games step right up and get this awesome  FREE game

### 5/5 — Bien fait

*2019-09-17, version 1.0.0*

Puzzles juste assez difficile, dessins magnifiques, bonne ambiance de Halloween.
