### 3/5 — Fun

*2026-02-03*

Fun but disappointing that I can’t purchase game unless there’s a way but I can’t see how You have to purchase coins for hints and skips so I’m giving 3 stars , otherwise I would give 4 like most of my games

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback!  This game is in a F2P format, but it’s also offered in Premium — you can purchase it here: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/dark-city-kyiv-hidden-objects/id6478279868 and play without limits, with all hints and skips included. 💛

### 3/5 — Good game, but too many hints

*2025-11-26*

I recently rediscovered the HOPA genre and was thrilled to find the Friendly Fox games.  In general, I find all of the Friendly Fox games to be fun, slightly challenging, and of a higher caliber than some of the other HOPA brands around.  (I particularly love the more difficult mini puzzles that popup).  

By that standard, I found the Kyiv game underwhelming.  In its own right, it's a good game, however, there was almost no challenge.  Every few steps there was an unprompted "hint" (the screen zoomed in and showed exactly what to do next), there were very few (and pretty simple) multi-location moments (needing to go between locations freely), and overall a rigidity to this game that made it kinda boring.  It was one of their F2P games so I'm not really upset, just disappointed.

As it was the last game from Friendly Fox I had left to play, I played it through.

If you are new to the HOP genre, this may be a good starter game since it is a very simple/non-challenging one to help get the hang of it.  Overall, I know Friendly Fox can do better.

Thank you for being a pretty consistent, quality developer in the genre though!  

(p.s. I hope to see some new / un-used and challenging mini-puzzles in future games.)

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for sharing your detailed thoughts!  We truly appreciate your honesty and your continued support of our games.

### 5/5 — Another Great Adventure

*2026-01-12, version 1.5.2*

This was such a joy to play! It has an exciting story set in wonderful locations with great attention to detail. 
I had to skip 2 puzzles though, as these proved to be too much of a challenge for me.
The bonus chapter was just as thrilling and fun to play as the main chapter; both were excellent!

### 5/5 — So Good
