Graphic much too small, on an 11 in IPad it uses just half the screen size, hints are worthless, I deleted it just after trying to go anywhere without access after 2 days. Don’t waste time downloading it, there are sooooo much better escape and puzzle games out there which actually work and are FUN to play. This is just frustration. ### 1/5 — I deleted this game *2020-06-08* Got stuck early in the game with the water tank puzzle. Hint was not helpful. No available online walkthrough. I wonder how this game got its high rating? - - - Wow, great response from the developer! I would definitely give the developer of this game 0 (zero) star rating for its attitude. Please see other people’s LOW RATING of this game. Does that mean they too couldn’t think for themselves?🤔 **Developer response:** Because everyone else knows how exhilarating it is when you can think for yourself and solve it. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on iPad Pro *2020-05-20* Although app page says it works on iPad, it doesn’t draw correctly on iPad Pro 11, iOS 13.4. Can't get past the Select Language screen. **Developer response:** Thank you for providing this information. You have helped me to solve the problem. A new update has just been delivered to the Store, please give it a try. Sorry it took so long to resolve the issue. ### 3/5 — Didn’t get very far *2019-06-08* I think this might be a fun game, but I got stuck pretty early on and had to stop playing. It kept giving me the same hint over and over - something about a numerical code corresponding to the position of a water tank. Makes no sense and I can’t find a walkthrough online, so I had to delete the game. ### 5/5 — Good puzzles but.... *2026-06-07* Update: update on app has made huge improvement! Game now moves quickly and little box is totally responsive! No lag time at all! Thank you developer! Changing to five stars. This is a good game with challenging puzzles and an obviously responsive dev! Play it. Long lag time... buttons and butterfly on little box are unresponsive. I'm enjoying the game but this little box is getting frustrating. I hear a click but the butterfly only moves every so often and unpredictably. I managed to get past the buttons but the butterfly is proving too much for me. ### 5/5 — Challenging *2020-06-26* Some of the puzzles were not obvious, but I think that’s a good thing! ### 5/5 — AMAZING GAME!!! *2019-09-10* This is my first game by this developer and it was honestly one of the best escape games of this type. It wasn’t too hard but it wasn’t really easy either. It was just the right combination of logic and having to think outside the box. The graphics, sound effects, and background music were all GREAT. I absolutely loved playing this game. It took me an hour and I had to use the hint system only 1 time. This game is a really good escape game. I definitely recommend giving it a try. Thank you to the developer for making such a wonderful game. I enjoyed it VERY much! 👍🏼 ### 5/5 — Fun! *2019-06-17* Great puzzles that made sense and weren’t too difficult. Looking forward to more from this developer! 🤖 ### 5/5 — Good puzzles but.... *2019-05-07* Update: update on app has made huge improvement!
