### 1/5 — Jack the ripper

*2010-06-19, version 0*

Don't buy it! Only one level works.

### 1/5 — DON"T DOWNLOAD unless you want the developer to steal your money

*2010-06-18, version 0*

The same thing happened to me. It gave me a message after the first game segment that I downloaded the game illegally. Uh, no. Got it through the App Store on an a non-jailbroken iPad. I can admit to spending money on game that are bad. That error is on me. This error is on either Apple or the developer. I will be challenging any charge on my credit card from this app.

### 1/5 — Pot off the screen

*2014-07-22, version 3.0*

Same here. Can't get past the off screen pot in the morgue. It was a really good game but for that.

### 1/5 — Jack the Ripper letters from hell

*2012-10-05, version 3.0*

Love the game but can,t pick up the pot. Is on edge of screen. Want it fixed or money refunded.

### 1/5 — Jack the rip off

*2012-09-01, version 3.0*

Good game,however in one ho, cannot get pot of fallen as not enough pot showing and cannot further progress in game. Frustrating, want my money back or fix screen where u can retrieve pot and proceed.

### 1/5 — Don't waste the money

*2012-02-05, version 2.0*

A waste of money and time..same thing over and over.. Find the same objects over and over 15 of the same  thing over and over Back tojail over and over and over and over Stupid go Dreanland!

### 1/5 — Jack the Ripoff

*2011-08-28, version 1.3*

Game came to a stop when the main character was in his office and said, "something is missing".  There no hints as to what the game player is supposed to do at this point.  Dead end.

### 1/5 — Jack The Ripper HD

*2011-06-14, version 1.3*

I agree with non HD reviews.  Takes less than 1 hour to play, directions not clear to the point you have to blindly guess what they want you to do.  It became a guessing game, not a fun challenge.  Do not waste money.  My game also got stuck several times, where clue clock would not count down after using a clue.  Next time I will read all reviews regular as well as High Def.

### 1/5 — Short but not sweet

*2011-01-17, version 1.2*

This game is way too short. It takes less than one hour start to finish. The story is pretty stupid. The hidden objects usually have nothing to do with the story. Find 15 of this, 20 of that. The graphics are bad. I got this on sale and it was still not worth it.

### 1/5 — No Fun At All

*2010-08-22, version 0*

Too difficult, stingy with hints, no walkthrough anywhere, guess everyone who bought this game said not worth spending time to write one.  Beyond boring, should have cost no more than 99 cents.  Save your money.

### 1/5 — Don't waste your money

*2010-08-12, version 0*

Only bought this when it went on sale and hoped it would be mildly entertaining for a couple of dollars.  I was pleasantly surprised when I was really enjoying the game and the interesting premise.  I didn't have any crashing problems and was happy until maybe 10-15 minutes in......the end.  What??????  Are they really serious?  I really thought it was a mistake.  I can't believe they would charge $5 for this.  Even if it were free, I would feel robbed.  Thanks!

### 1/5 — look out

*2010-06-19, version 0*

After I got through the first level a message came up saying I downloaded the app illegally and will not continue.  I went to the developers site and it is all in French with no English available.  So download at your own risk.  No one will respond to the problem with this app.  DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY THIS APP DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY?

### 5/5 — Chloe

*2012-10-19, version 3.0*

Ok if I could get formalin. Please fix my game or refund my money. Now I can't pick up the bell by the clock. Do not even see a bell.     I can pick up the bell but now I can't pick up the las blue arrow next to the barrel.

### 5/5 — A nice change from the games I've played 100 times

*2012-02-03, version 2.0*

Beautiful macabre graphics (but they are not kidding about the brighten your screen first warning). So often, it feels like i've played the same game over and over. This game had new things to do, not just a simple hunt for the hidden picture game. The hidden items, though, were well hidden and challenging. This is definitely a good game for adults who need a challenge.  Judging by the previous version's low scores this must have been greatly improved for v2.

I played it on an iPad; it would not go well on a smaller screen.

### 3/5 — Qbalagrl

*2012-02-27, version 2.0*

The games ok . It is not this company's best, but also not it's worse

### 3/5 — Fun, while it lasts

*2011-02-01, version 1.2*

The game is fun with a neat story but some of the things you do is weird. But the story is short it took me a little less than an hour to finish and these games are not my best. But the gameplay is fun and interesting.

### 3/5 — No Problems, Just Short

*2010-09-07, version 0*

I didn't have any issues with the game. These high def games take up a lot of memory. Just running your iPad takes memory, so if you are running short then your game will crash.  Delete some of the stuff you don't use or like anymore.  The only complaint I had is that I paid $5.00 for a game that took me less than an hour to complete...much shorter than HDO's other games. Now that is robbery.

### 2/5 — Not worth the money!

*2012-03-25, version 2.0*

Pretty much the same thing over and over, find 15 bats, find15 pieces of paper, find 10 of this and 15 of that.  Point and shoot? What a joke a 2 yr old could shoot faster than these items appear is this a game for my 110 yr grandma to play while half awake because that is about all the brain time you need to dedicate to this game!  Had promise but fell thru quickly!

### 2/5 — short on fun

*2010-10-23, version 0*

The story just begins to get my interest and it's over. Most notably the game play is weak. I get the feeling the studio behind this line of HO games just doesn't like their job. 1 dollar and 2 stars is fair for their half hearted efforts.

### 2/5 — Jack the Ripper

*2010-07-19, version 0*

Doesn't anyone test these games.  I got the same message that the game was downloaded illegally.  Then nothing.  The game freezes.
I tried reaching customer support, but all I got was a site on, I think, French.  I received a reply in French that I have to translate sometime.  
Not to worry, iTunes charged me for this game.

### 2/5 — Theft

*2010-07-12, version 0*

This should be reported as thievery...same thing happened to me.  Too bad I purchased before anyone wrote their reviews.  Support is non existent unless you speak french, then who knows, and of course, it is impossible to get support from the iTunes store.
