Agent *2019-09-02, version 1.0.0* Love the story and adventure so far. The graphics could be better and I’m not a big fan of the setting of the story but it’s a solid game. ### 4/5 — サムは？ *2019-07-25, version 1.0.0* このシリーズの冒険が楽しくて、ミニゲームも他とは少し違う感じで今回も良かったです。 ただ、サムはもう登場しないのかな？ ### 4/5 — Spannend u. abwechslungsreich *2018-10-28, version 1.0.0* Sehr gut aufgebautes, spannendes Spiel mit tollen, interessanten Schauplätzen ganz unterschiedlicher Art. Flott durchzuspielen durch Karte u. Tipp. Sammelobjekte etc. vorhanden. Die WBS waren ganz okay, aber die Mingames fand ich sehr schwierig und oft auch unzureichend erklärt. Dafür den Stern Abzug. Insgesamt sind die H.E.L.P. - Abenteuer aber immer super. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ### 3/5 — Not the best of the series *2018-06-18, version 1.0.0* Graphics are average with many cut and paste cheaply done. The perspective is awkward with objects having the wrong size according to their placement in the scene. Disappointing story with uninteresting characters. Playability is OK and the game is long enough with some interesting puzzles. Recently I have been playing some Maria Glorum games, they have an overall quality so high, this one pales in comparison. ### 4/5 — 面白かったです( ^ω^ ) *2018-06-13, version 1.0.0* ミニゲームは他にはないようなものが多くて楽しめました。 ちょっと短いので星⭐️4つ。 ### 4/5 — Really interesting game! *2018-06-03, version 1.0.0* I have mixed feelings about this series. I love visiting the locations, and learning historical facts. But it’s done by Eipix. You know what I mean; no innovation, predictable puzzles, hos, gameplay, etc. But this one grabbed my attention and kept it! I loved the story of Mithridates, which I previously did not know about. Some of the puzzles were a bit innovative 😯. Some hos were too 😳! Long game that was thoroughly enjoyable. The only beef I had, is a bit of a disconnect in the storyline. Originally you are supposed to stop the poison from spreading into the water supply within six days. Then something else happens you need to take care of first. Then....what about the water supply? I thought maybe that would be the theme of the bonus game, but no. Still good, still worth buying. ### 3/5 — Good game...impossible mini games *2018-05-08, version 1.0.0* I love a challenge and the game and story are fun. But a few of the mini games are impossible....have never skipped so many! ### 3/5 — Um.... *2018-05-02, version 1.0.0* Since the majority of my recent reviews have been less than gushing...ha!...I will try my best to avoid my seemingly spilling over dialogue of constructive criticism, lol...and attempt to focus on the positive....😇 ..ahem.. we'll see how long it lasts.... ....apparently not long.😌 It dawned on me that reviews are supposed to be related to the game details and my endless complaints are better suited for EIPIX's game forum, so from now on I will try my best to limit the commentary overload & stick to the game specifics: Here's the deal: It's 2018. EIPIX and the others obviously have the knowledge, resources, skill set and experience to put together a killer game. Take MCF. The Mini-Games alone are worth the cost, as they are absolutely original, complex and challenging require skill to navigate- especially the ones with six-eight steps....now THAT set the higher standard...and anything less seems like plain laziness. So as I hold EIPIX to higher expectations, I'd expect each subsequent game to be BETTER than the last, displaying updated tools and at the VERY least seeing the HO, Puzzles, Mini-Games presented in new ways. For starters: 💪🏻The stocky thick bulked up man arms on the rope....😳 ONGOING TROUBLE SELECTING For some reason primarily with EIPIX games - it's impossible to select an object in a scene- until I select HINT- which then circles the item- not actually solving -then suddenly it's unlocked! I will continue to update. And find my sense of humor. 🤔 ### 3/5 — OK Game *2018-04-29, version 1.0.0* The story line has kept me intrigued. I find the puzzle instructions difficult. Thus had to skip many of them. Detracts from the enjoyment of the game. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Costs Money, Scam, Outdated *2026-08-09, version 1.0.0* Game is not free. You play a good portion and out of nowhere you have to pay to unlock the rest of the game. It’s very outdated ### 1/5 — セール対象 *2019-03-29, version 1.0.0* セール対象となってるがなってない ### 1/5 — どうして？ *2019-03-28, version 1.0.0* セール中なのに、840円はどうしてでしょうか？ ### 1/5 — Boring *2018-06-03, version 1.0.0* I typically love most hidden object games. This one was definitely not for me! ### 1/5 — sucks *2018-05-27, version 1.0.0* the side games don,t work. was not able to complete one of them without skip button. the directions do not have enough information to be able to complete or even get them to start ### 1/5 — Do not like the puzzles. Directions are horrible *2018-04-29, version 1.0.0* Not intuitive at all. Have to skip most just to see what they want me to do ### 2/5 — Hidden expedition *2018-05-28, version 1.0.0* Moyen ### 2/5 — 😏 *2018-05-23, version 1.0.0* All the hidden expedition games are the same they’re getting tiresome and boring I stopped playing it and won’t be buying anymore neither. ### 2/5 — Interesting but *2018-05-11, version 1.0.0* I’m finding the challenges to be explained very poorly. Some of the tasks make no sense. Not sure I’d bother. Paid for it now so will continue but otherwise try something else. ### 2/5 — Horrible mini games...way too complex *2018-04-27, version 1.0.0* I love working with the HELP team, the stories and adventures are great BUT it’s no fun when you have to skip EVERY mini game. Tone it down a bit will ya? ☹️ ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great story and graphics *2021-07-05, version 1.0.0* So far I am enjoying this game. At least no scar monsters ### 5/5 — A surprise *2021-06-08, version 1.0.0* So many of these have trite, unimaginative story lines, stock characters, and really are little besides a few basic puzzles strung loosely together by a character looking for something. Here the characters actually reflected the setting, the dialogue was witty in places, and the clues matched the people and their surroundings. Much more mature, with vivid colors and exotic settings. ### 5/5 — Big fish *2020-10-16, version 1.0.0* I love it ### 5/5 — My review :) *2019-11-30, version 1.0.0* So I just am now downloading the game and I’m beyond excited to start playing, but I’ve read the other reviews and they aren’t really positive!!!! So hopefully everything works out for me :) and no issues with the game and plus it’s new one ☺️☺️☺️☺️ I’ll do another review as soon as I’m done with the whole game and bonus chapter :) - amanda 💗💜💗💜 ### 5/5 — Terrific game *2019-10-14, version 1.0.0* Fantastic entertainment...many thx ### 5/5 — Good Game *2018-07-05, version 1.0.0* I always enjoy this series of Hidden Expedition Games. Good story line ### 5/5 — Bright Adventure *2018-06-19, version 1.0.0* Great game when it is brightly colored and not evil dark. Need more games like this so keep them coming! ### 5/5 — Gusto *2018-05-30, version 1.0.0* Good game loved the mini games. Good challenge.good value in the sale ### 5/5 — 難易度高い *2018-05-03, version 1.0.0* 簡単モードでやっていても苦戦 ### 5/5 — Engrossing Plot, Varied HOPs and Puzzles *2018-04-29, version 1.0.0* One suggestion - Please make the Hint and Puzzle options faster at 5 seconds! Bonus section has an option to find missed objects. There are also 24 souvenirs to locate. I thoroughly enjoyed playing this game! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
