You can speed it up with coins, but there doesn’t seem to be any way to earn them so it’s either wait or spend a lot of money. ### 3/5 — Great *2024-08-15* I love this game but the wait times are ridiculous! Wish there were ads we could use instead of the skip tokens. ### 4/5 — Story *2024-07-20* Spannend ### 3/5 — fine *2024-07-09* I dont mind waiting honestly but the notifications are bugged because when i open it that way its a grey screen.. ### 3/5 — Interesting *2024-06-02, version 1.2.10* The wait time is atrocious but it keeps you interested. ### 2/5 — OK game *2024-03-29* I love interactive games but the waiting times are really frustrating and unnecessary. Have only been playing for 20 mins and I’ve been asked to rate the game. Not sure I’ll keep playing this one ### 3/5 — Wait times *2024-01-23, version 1.2.10* I like the game, but hate the wait times! ### 4/5 — Great game overall *2023-11-24* Some scenarios are a bit lacking. The wait times aren’t too bad. ### 4/5 — Pretty good *2023-11-01* This game is pretty good. Which there were more videos and photos. ### 3/5 — Ok *2023-10-23, version 1.2.10* Ok ### 3/5 — Idioma *2023-10-15* Por favor en españo!! ### 4/5 — Really fun overall *2023-05-04* The game is pretty fun, the only thing I don’t love is the wait times, but they’re usually not bad considering there’s still real life going on, and it makes the game more realistic ### 3/5 — Good *2023-04-02* I really want to love this on as much as I’ve loved all this company’s stuff but I’m struggling. The story is pretty good (not great but good) but you get to read and interact only to be interrupted either by an ad which doesn’t annoy me to much except then all a sudden you have to wait 10 / 20 minutes to move on because Annie’s busy. Doesn’t make for much fun if your just sitting around waiting for that long. I mean the wait I understand but that’s to long to make it any fun. This being said I love most of their work, Seven and Seven End Game were great Orphan is still ongoing The healing is also fantastic although mine is froze at the moment. So great job and fun interactive reading! Wait I just hit a Annie will be offline for 3 hours. Ya not fun this way. ### 3/5 — It’s okay *2023-01-12, version 1.2.10* Not as good as some of the other games and wait time in between is terrible….. However still love the story etc ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Du potentiel *2025-11-18* Toujours pas en français !! Déçu !!! ### 1/5 — sacanagem *2025-03-31* não consigo coloca em português 💔 ### 1/5 — Breaks are SO annoying! *2024-08-20* Keeps making me watch advertisements, which is fine, but then still makes me wait 3-4 hours for the next interaction. Interaction with the main character is very short, so it feels like very little time is spent actually invested in the game. This doesn’t make me want to invest financially in the game, and i can’t see I will continue playing much longer. Disappointing after playing the developers other games, avoid this. ### 1/5 — Déçu *2024-06-07* Pas en français ### 1/5 — What? *2024-05-05* I’m glad there’s no minigames, but good god there’s just so much waiting. Someone claims it’s more realistic, but I strongly disagree. This is a game that starts with a mystery where a woman lost in the woods turns on speech to text and it somehow picks up noise to play ambient sound while changing the phone background relevant images. Also you get to play through Annie’s nightmare. So we have a completely bizarre plot where Annie’s husband Thomas tried to kill her and run off with their daughter because Annie heard frankly absolutely nothing important over the phone. And the reason Thomas is like that is because his father ran off with him when he was a child. In my game I had her shoot him and then she flies home with her daughter and gets a text on Thomas’ phone that she’s still being watched. Then I got a game over jpg. And that’s what I played 30 seconds - 2 minutes of game followed by 12 minutes - 6 hours of waiting for. That’s what this mystery led to. A wet fart. I’m sorry, I appreciate the effort, but this isn’t even a good visual novel. ### 1/5 — Fun *2023-04-02* It’s kind of like those fun books when I was a kid. You get to the point where you get to choose what the character does and then you had to turn to the page for that option. You could read the book multiple times and it was different everytime. But with this story it’s someone sending you texts asking for help. I just started this story so I can’t say more yet. I only gave 4 stars because it has short interactions then you have to wait 10 or 20 minutes to proceed. You can skip but you have to pay to do it. They do give 2 for free though. I’m changing my review because ads started popping up right in the middle of text. Plus it gives you 3 sentences and then you make a choice and then wait 2 hours unless you buy skip coins. There’s no way to earn skip coins. It’s just not enough to keep my attention so I’m deleting it. Good idea, but not set up right ### 1/5 — Pas en français contrairement à ce qui est annoncé… *2022-04-08* Dommage que le jeu ne soit pas en français, pourtant indiqué dans les infos sur l’app store …. Sinon ça a l’air d’être un très bon jeu ### 1/5 — Faux : pas en français *2021-07-16* Pas en français, contrairement à d’autres jeux de la marque ### 1/5 — Lingua italiana *2021-05-16* C’è scritto che è disponibile la lingua italiana ma scaricato il gioco non c’è’!!! ### 1/5 — 😡 *2020-06-19* Cadê a opção de colocar em português ? Na descrição diz que tem como ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Help Annie *2025-04-21* This is really good and or make you think it is also good because you are helping the people and saving them it is brilliant being your own detective ### 5/5 — So addicted *2025-04-17* I’m so glad doesn’t have the tedious mini games it is a little annoying to wait all the time but it’s still super fun would totally recommend ### 5/5 — So much fun!! *2025-03-14* This and other interactive stories like this are so much fun and you get invested in the character(s) and their welfare. Sure there are some times when you have to wait for a bit, but I usually use that time to my advantage and go do other real life things that I need to do. :). I absolutely love reading and having a part in helping to try to save these characters. So much fun!!! ### 5/5 — gostei *2024-09-30* muito legal ### 5/5 — Very enjoyable edge of your seat story *2024-08-28* This is as good as any page-turner. The developers really know how to make you care about Annie and want to help her. This was a great find! ### 5/5 — Kurzweiliger Zeitvertreib *2023-04-17* Die App läuft stabil und bislang (~ 2 Spielstunden) keine Zahlungsaufforderung. Werbung nervt, aber irgendwie muss das Ganze finanziert werden. Wenn die andere Rezession stimmt, wird im Laufe der Zeit einmalig ein Betrag fällig. Für ein gut geratenes Spiel, soweit ich das bislang beurteilen kann, würde ich einmalig bis zu 5 € zahlen. Die Verwendung von Bildern im Chatverlauf finde ich zudem sehr gut. ### 5/5 — Great game *2023-03-04, version 1.2.10* Great game! ### 5/5 — Worth playin *2022-08-29* Hooked from the start and can’t wait to see how it goes ### 5/5 — I love this game *2022-07-21* The story is so fun and easy to follow. I also learn a lot of stuff when I was playing the story. The part I mostly enjoy was the part where Annie need help with starting the car. I felt that I learn a lot and won’t have to worry if my car doesn’t start. Thank you for this game and I hope you continue updating this game ### 5/5 — Impressive *2022-06-26* I just finished the sign and it was the best game ever but this one is just as good --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
