### 3/5 — $14?!? Is that a typo?

*2021-05-11*

These games would need to have a LOT more content than just run-collect-click to make $14 even close to reasonable.

### 2/5 — $14 bucks. WTH!

*2020-05-07*

I have purchased all of the Hercules games so obviously a fan. But $14 for this same game that is a repeat is price gauging.  And for that matter, the game has to be pretty involved with great graphics to be worth that much. Shame on you guys and even worse that you triple the price during a shelter at home pandemic quarantine.

### 5/5 — The Excursion Level

*2020-04-30*

Your games are awesome but for some reason this particular level does not give the player enough gold to break the crystals or enough wood to build the bridges, so I can’t move on. I’ve played this level 5 times with the same issue..what do you suggest? Sad player :(

**Developer response:** Hi there! Thank you so much for playing and giving us a review! We are very happy you are enjoying the game. Drop us a message at contact@jetdogs.com and we will help you with the tricky level :)

### 3/5 — Can’t get past 4.5

*2020-04-29*

I’ve played all the Hercules games and love them. But I can’t get past level 4.5 on this one and it’s frustrating.

**Developer response:** Hi there! Thank you for playing and giving us a review! Drop us a message at contact@jetdogs.com and we will help you with the tricky level :)

### 5/5 — Best one yet!

*2020-04-25*

In casual mode I had to play a couple levels over again - that’s awesome! Please keep them coming this series is so fun!

### 3/5 — Good game

*2020-04-23, version 1.0*

Too expensive to buy the full version

### 3/5 — Not crazy about the changes

*2020-04-23*

I love the Hercules series and play and replay them addictively. While some may enjoy that this new version is more challenging, I find that the added complexities of this version diminish my enjoyment. This is my least favorite of the series.

### 5/5 — 日本語版出てほしい

*2020-04-22*

シリーズ大好きです！
日本にはこういうゲームがないので嬉しい
日本語版を出してほしい…

### 3/5 — bien mais bloque niveau 4.5.’faites qqch pas assez or

*2020-04-20*

bon jeu
mais erreur niveau 4.5
pas assez malgre boosters.bug

### 5/5 — Best Game Series

*2020-04-19*

I thoroughly enjoy the Hercules game series. The next in the series is better than the one before. The games is very well built, I very rarely experience any glitches. Then the story line and gameplay is excellent. I can’t wait for the next one.

**Developer response:** Hi there! Thank you so much for playing the game and giving us a review. It means a lot to us to know that you enjoy the game - glad you are having fun :) We are always working on new games - stay tuned!

### 2/5 — I’m a fan but not this one!

*2020-04-17*

I am a HUGE Hercules fan... I’ve purchased every single one. But at $9.99 this one is simply not worth it! There was a glitch on one of the levels that makes it near impossible to achieve gold status for that level. There are only 5 islands and I completed the entire game in just a few days of light play. 

I can only hope that the developers add more levels to this game, perhaps then it will be more worthwhile. There are many apps and games out there for far less than $9.99 and you’ll get more play out of.

### 4/5 — Minor improvements

*2020-04-17*

Love these games but expert level is a bit too intense. Challenging is one thing, but this is not as enjoyable

### 1/5 — Way to expensive

*2021-01-23, version 1.0.1*

Cost is ridiculous. Way more people would buy this app if it wasn’t sooooo expensive and you would make more money in the long run !!!!!!

### 1/5 — Suddenly stopped working.

*2020-08-06*

I was thoroughly enjoying my recent purchase, but it suddenly stopped working on my iPad. There was a recent update to the operating system, but all my other Hercules games are still working. Considering the price, I’m really disappointed.

### 1/5 — Lädt nicht

*2020-08-06, version 1.0.1*

Gestern die Vollversion gekauft, heute lässt sich das Spiel nicht mehr öffnen. Ärgerlich!

### 1/5 — Great game, but why so expensive?

*2020-07-31*

I love these games. But they’re definitely not worth $15+.  The price is $13.99 plus tax, and that would be fine, if the game had more than 3 times the normal levels of the other ones, since it’s 3 times the cost of them. Or if it was a game that had unlimited play with in game upgrades. But for just the cost of a regular strategy game with 40 or so levels, I’m not paying that much. I expect more from Jetdogs Oy.

### 1/5 — 14,99€?! Langsam wird es unverschämt

*2020-07-15, version 1.0.1*

Ich spiele ja gern solche Sammelspiele auf Zeit und gebe auch sehr gern den einen oder anderen Euro dafür aus, damit die Entwickler auch ihre Familien ernähren können. Aber bei 14,99€ In-App Kauf hört der Spaß mehr als auf! Dann spiele ich lieber die ersten 10 freien Level und warte auf die Fortsetzung. 

Mal schauen, ob diesmal die Bewertung veröffentlicht wird. Ich gebe die Hoffnung nicht auf.

### 1/5 — Rip off!

*2020-04-27, version 1.0*

Way too expensive. Developers got greedy. :(

### 1/5 — Too expensive

*2020-04-09, version 1.0*

Usually buy all these games but £6.99 feels like a rip off.  I’ll sit this one out

### 1/5 — I will review after playing

*2020-04-07, version 1.0*

Developer. I want to buy but your 50% off 9.99 deal is 6.99? Errmmmm I failed maths twice but even I know that’s not right. I love your games but that is shadey... please fix and I will write a proper review. Thank you x

### 2/5 — Sound problems

*2020-09-09*

Sometimes the sounds just go off and I have to close out the game and open it back up to get the sound back on.  At first I thought it was me or my iPad, but it is a clitch  in the game.  I have all the other Hercules games, but I’m not a big fan of this  1.  It is too fast paced for me and the sound thing is a pain.

### 2/5 — Not loading

*2020-07-10*

I was really enjoying this game. Up until, for no reason, it started crashing. It now won't load at all. I have deleted and reloaded but to no avail. Not happy as it cost €7,99.
Fix it please.

*2020-07-11*

I’ve played all of them, and the provide hours of entertainment!

### 5/5 — Great fun game

*2020-06-15, version 1.0.1*

Another in the Hercules series of puzzle games. Some harder levels in this one. Great to play if you’ve only got the occasional five minutes spare. Love the new guide makes getting around a level much faster. Liked how the jigsaw pieces are hidden in this one.

### 5/5 — Apaixonada

*2020-05-29*

Jogo maravilhoso, gráficos perfeitos! Adoro! Precisam lançar novos jogos mais rápido! Sinto falta!

### 5/5 — Great time management and strategy game.
