### 5/5 — Hidden Gem

*2012-10-06*

Really fun game. Well worth the admission to get in this haunted house. I like how every level/room has its own name. It's a nice touch. The graphics are slick, controls are good, sound is nice. It would be nice to be able to use your coins to upgrade your character. (ie, speed, better flashlights, outfits, strength, ect.) I'm looking forward to seeing new houses/levels in future updates. Hopefully before Halloween. Hats off to Armor Games on this one.

### 5/5 — Spook-tastic

*2012-10-05*

Great game! I loved the puzzles and scary sense of excitement the game brings.

### 5/5 — Spooky fun!

*2012-10-05*

Great game - perfect for kids and adults! The levels are quick and addictive. Looking forward to playing more.

### 5/5 — Coolness!

*2012-10-04*

Hey! This game was pretty sweet playing it!

 It has really awesome graphics, maybe among the best I've seen for a game app. 

The gameplay is also pretty good too. Good to pick up and put down whenever, like on the go.

 It's a buy!

### 1/5 — Level 29 too many ghosts

*2015-10-15*

Make that level easier or give us a level skip option so we don't have to go through the super tough levels which are levels I really hate!

### 1/5 — House of shadow

*2014-07-28, version 1.1*

It does not have update

### 1/5 — Awful Controls

*2013-10-13*

I tap up, character goes down. I tap left, character goes right. I tap back, character goes forward! Clearly a glitched game. Glitched games are deleted!

### 4/5 — Want More Levels

*2015-08-20*

I love this game. I played it a couple of years ago and am playing again. I give it 4 stars instead of 5 because I have been waiting for another house (more levels) for a long time.

### 4/5 — it is so fun

*2014-05-02*

it is just not simple.
to break the game, you should think carefully.
it makes more fun.
i love this game

### 4/5 — Veramente carino

*2013-10-21, version 1.1*

Piacevole passatempo non troppo complicato :)

### 4/5 — Pretty good

*2013-10-12*

Enjoyable but controls need some fine tuning.
Also would like to seem Gamecenter with this

### 4/5 — Best Halloween game this year

*2012-10-16*

Man, I wish they had this even on PC when I was a kid.

This game is fun and awesome.

Even though its a kids game, it's not quite that easy.

Only complaint is movement can sometimes be difficult, like you can't rotate in a circle without standing still which is especially difficult when lighting the orbs. Sometimes the character won't go through the doors.

Also since this is a Halloween game it'd be cool candy/treats could be collected as well.

### 4/5 — Cute Game

*2012-10-06*

For 99 cents its a cute game for the Halloween season. It reminds me a little  of the Haunted House game I played on the Atari back in the 80's.

### 5/5 — Fun, quirky, clever, ambiance

*2019-10-04*

Good graphics, animations, and puzzles.  Different & original!

### 5/5 — Next house please!!!!!!!!!

*2017-06-11, version 1.1*

When will we get next levels - great game - so few sneak games  like this?

### 5/5 — A little gem.....

*2014-08-25, version 1.1*

.....this is a little beauty. Starts off easy but gets tricky in the second house. It's a view from above stealth game and is a hidden beauty for me on the App Store and a great precursor to Pixa - which is a masterpiece.
There is an Upcoming Level that will perhaps never come but I'll keep hoping that a super hard third level stops by one day. As it is it's 60 levels of very well made stealth gaming. Well made too.

### 5/5 — Grrrreat!

*2014-03-22*

I love, love this game!  Please make more levels!!!!

### 5/5 — Bello, anzi troppo bello.

*2013-10-15, version 1.0*

Sembrerebbe annoiante ma più vai avanti e più le cose si fanno dure. Veramente un bel gioco. Bravi sviluppatori avete le mie 5 stelle.😀

### 5/5 — Fun game

*2013-01-14*

A great game for kids and adults alike. It starts easy but gets really challenging fast. I would recommend this game to everyone.

### 5/5 — Awesome game!

*2012-10-19*

I can't put this game down!  The graphics are cool, and I love the music, too!  It's spooky, but not too much for the kiddos.  Totally worth the $2!

### 5/5 — Fun for Both of Us!

*2012-10-10*

My son and I both enjoy playing working out the puzzles together on this game.  The graphics and the music are good and spooky, and it even becomes a bit thrilling when the ghost locks on to your character!  A great Halloween game at a great price!

### 5/5 — Cute

*2012-10-10*

I don't play games but I like having something for the season and I liked the cute pictures so I bought the app.   But actually I could play this game and it was fun. I like the music too. This was a good use of two bucks.

### 5/5 — grande game. molto divertente

*2012-10-09, version 1.0*

Sei in una Casa con tanti fantasma e tanti indovinello. Mi piace un sacco :-)
