### 4/5 — FBI

*2020-02-20, version 1.1*

Bello ma mettete la versione completa gratis ve lo scongiuro!

### 1/5 — Ne dépensez pas votre argent

*2015-12-08, version 1.01*

Les scènes d'objets cachées sont injouables : les objets sont complété ment invisibles dans un ramassis sombre qui fait mal aux yeux. Obligé d'utiliser l'aide pour chaque objet ce qui ralenti considérablement le jeu. La seule chose un peu sympa, ce sont les petits flashs d'info sur la vie de JFK. Également, lorsqu'on quitte le jeu et qu'on y revient, on doit recommencer toute la séquence. Vraiment très mauvais jeu.

### 1/5 — Will not register what I'm trying to do

*2014-12-27*

Great idea, great music but let down with bugs in the game and won't register when I click on items. Needs sorting out!!!!!

### 4/5 — I really like this game a lot

*2014-11-28*

Yes there are bugs, but, it's a really cool game. I've been going off and on it for months now just playing for an hour or so. Pretty cool.

### 1/5 — Hidden Files: Echoes of JFK is stuck

*2014-10-23, version 1.01*

Oct 22-2014
GAME:   Hidden Files: Echoes of JFK 
I am stuck at the garage where the live wire needs the sticky tape.
No matter how many times I restarted & tried it, the tape did not stick on the live wire.
This happened after I purchased the game. I should ask for a refund.

### 1/5 — Don't Bother With This Game Either

*2014-10-10*

You can only get so far in the game and when you get to the scene of the ransacked apartment you can't advance. 

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!

### 1/5 — Awful!

*2014-06-29, version 1.01*

This game is not very intuitive and is a bit of a challenge to figure out, despite the 'tutorial'. There are puzzles that have no directions for solving. Frustrating and boring in the end.

### 1/5 — NON COMPRATELO

*2014-05-12, version 1.01*

Pieno di bug. Non funziona. Disinstallato e reinstallato non consente di andare avanti. Pagato e NON RIMBORSATO.

### 1/5 — Dommage

*2014-02-23, version 1.01*

Il n'arrête pas de buger et tu es obliger de recommencer à zéro, c'est vraiment chiant surtout pour un jeux à 4,99€...!

### 3/5 — Needs improvement

*2014-02-16*

There are many glitches that keep this game from being fun.  You have to redo many activities over and over just to move on.  There are times you have to shut the game down because it freezes up.  In some of the hidden object games, you will find all the objects but it won't let you out.  When you use your hints, it starts showing things that were not even on the list.  This game really needs work.  Don't waste your money.
