### 2/5 — Payant

*2026-07-17*

Le jeu devient payant après quelques scènes. J’ai joué à tout les jeux du même genre proposé par un autre développeur, et franchement j’ai été assez déçu du fonctionnement de celui ci dans la façon d’interagir avec les objets, notamment dans le fait que si on ne place pas l’objet exactement au bon endroit le jeu ne le prend pas en compte, en niveau difficile on peut donc se retrouver coincé malgré une bonne approche. Ce qui est bien c’est qu’on peut entièrement régler le niveau de difficulté, même si au final on a le choix entre avoir des indices trop évident ou pas d’indices du tout et se retrouver dans la situation cité précédemment. Les graphismes et l’histoire reste pas mal malgré tout.

**Developer response:** Merci d'avoir pris le temps de partager votre avis avec autant de détails. 💙 Nous souhaitons simplement préciser que la description du jeu indique que la partie gratuite est une version d'essai, afin que chacun puisse découvrir l'aventure avant de décider de débloquer le jeu complet. Nous vous remercions également pour vos remarques concernant le niveau de difficulté et les interactions avec les objets. Notre objectif est de créer des jeux qui procurent du plaisir, et vos commentaires nous aident à mieux comprendre ce qui pourrait rendre l'expérience encore plus agréable. Enfin, nous sommes ravis d'apprendre que les graphismes et l'histoire vous ont plu. Merci d'avoir joué avec nous et d'avoir partagé votre expérience. ✨

### 3/5 — Nicht mehr zeitgemäß

*2025-12-24*

Grafik, Spielinteraktionen und Sequenzen wirken wie vor Jahrzehnten und sind teilweise nervig

**Developer response:** Es tut uns wirklich leid, dass dir der Stil des Spiels nicht zugesagt hat 😔 Vielen Dank, dass du deine Eindrücke mit uns geteilt hast! Wir hoffen, dass du vielleicht in unseren anderen Abenteuern mehr Freude finden wirst!

### 2/5 — Finding objects

*2025-10-07, version 1.4.0*

All finding object mini games are exactly the same and happen every 2 minutes! They could have varied the object search with silhouettes or round pieces of pictures, but it was all exactly the same and boring.

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2025-04-03, version 1.1.1*

I love games like this.  Unfortunately, I don't bother with games that I can't zoom in on my phone. The graphics tend to be pretty dark, which is fine since it’s applicable to the theme, but it’s very difficult to see anything. Seems like a very simple fix.

### 3/5 — Fun game in General

*2025-01-04, version 1.1.1*

Fun game I liked the graphics but please stop making the game so that we have to play your sound and music. Also stop making some of the puzzles so large that they mess with the screen changer drop down at the top of an iPhone drive me nuts to try and turn a puzzle piece and constantly have to toggle back from my screen settings because it’s to close to the top of the phone

### 5/5 — Pup

*2023-09-19, version 1.1.1*

Thank you for your games , I’ve played and spent a lot of money on them but every one was worth it , please hurry and put more on as I’m on the last one I downloaded. Thanks.

### 2/5 — Von wegen gratis

*2023-07-31*

Man ist im Flow und dann…. Bezahle 7€ Frechheit

### 5/5 — Addictive!

*2023-07-29, version 1.1.0*

Beautiful graphics, music and fun to play. I love that I only pay once instead of buying coins or annoying ads. I think I will have to go to rehab for game addiction as this is the 7th one I’ve played!

### 5/5 — Big fish

*2023-06-28, version 1.1.0*

I love it

### 3/5 — 환불 요청

*2023-06-11*

당신의 회사게임은 흥미롭기에 부담이 되지만 매번 결제하며 즐기고 있습니다
하지만 2년 전 발매된 ’Ice rose‘ 게임을 6,600원 결제해서 즐겼는데,
이 앱도 이름이 ’Ice rose‘지만 결제 전 게임 시작영상이 달라 다른 게임인 줄 알고8,800원을 결제 후 진행하니 같은 게임이였습니다 (출시시기가 다릅니다)
당신 회사의 또다른 게임을 즐길 수 있도록 환불 바랍니다

**Developer response:** 안녕하세요. 이 게임은 많은 업데이트가 포함된 리마스터 게임입니다. 이 주제에 대한 자세한 답변은 지원팀(support@friendlyfox.studio)에 문의하시기 바랍니다 😉

### 5/5 — So Much Fun!

*2023-05-21, version 1.1.0*

One of the THEE most enjoyable, fun, satisfying games I’ve ever played. 

The written commentary after certain cut-scenes was so informative and fun. 

And seeing the timer showing me how long I’ve been playing was fun too. 

Trying to find squirrels in every scene cracked me up. Like, why squirrels? But I loved it!

Both the main game and the bonus game were really long too. 

The graphics, the sound, the storyline, the dialogue, it was all so much fun!

I’m going to play it again f’sho! 

Bravo!

### 5/5 — Needs more instruction on some of mini games.

*2023-04-18, version 1.0.1*

So frustrating. I bought this game for my phone because I love these types of games. Of course the only one I actually paid for does not work on the phone. When you get to the mini game above the fireplace you have to right click to rotate the pieces (it’s does not say this in the game at all so I had to google it) but of course the phone does not have a right click option. I was able to figure out how to skip it. I had to hold down on the rose until it said 100% which took a few minutes. It wasn’t until almost the end of the game did another mini game state to hold the pieces over a rotate button did  I figure out what I had missed on the mantle game.

### 4/5 — 제발 ㅠ

*2023-01-08*

한글화해줬으면 더 잼게햇울거에영

**Developer response:** 의견을 보내 주셔서 감사합니다. 우리는 당신의 제안을 고려할 것입니다. 🙂💗

### 1/5 — Charged me twice

*2025-12-05, version 1.4.1*

I purchased this game in 2022 and I went to restore the purchase and it charged me again. No warning at all.

BEWARE!

Completely frustrating!

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2025-07-05*

After playing for sometime, you have to purchase the game !!!

**Developer response:** Please note that the free version of our game is a trial edition. For a full experience, we recommend exploring our free-to-play (F2P) titles — there's plenty to discover and enjoy!

### 1/5 — Not worth it

*2024-10-25*

All of these games for the tablet are way too expensive. $7 for a game that won’t even take a hour to complete. Ridiculous

### 1/5 — Waste of Money

*2024-03-06, version 1.1.1*

This was by far the worst game I’ve played. Do not be deceived by positive reviews. The storyline was terrible, the puzzles were nonsensical albeit easy. Many words in the hidden items mini games made no sense and looked more like translation gone wrong. The graphics were very outdated, not sure what they meant by ‘Remastered’, probably the price. All n all I was happy to be done with this game which thankfully is pretty short, another point that doesn’t justify the price.

### 1/5 — Love the game

*2024-01-31, version 1.1.1*

I loved the game, but it only let me play so long. It would tell me that I have to buy the rest of the game. Would give more stars if I could play the rest of the game.

### 1/5 — Be up front about the cost!!

*2023-05-21, version 1.1.0*

This might be a great game, I dont know,  but so annoyed to spend time on it then find there is a cost involved.. The cost itself does not seem unreasonable, but honesty is better. If it costs, say so, before wasting people's time

### 1/5 — Why £5.99

*2023-02-27, version 1.0.1*

I have already bought and played the original version of this and am at a loss as to why you’re charging full price for a slightly updated version. These days a have to be a little more careful with the pennies so will find something else.

### 1/5 — ㅁㅂㄱ

*2022-10-20*

ㅁㅂㄱ

**Developer response:** 피드백 주셔서 감사합니다. 이 게임에서 정확히 무엇을 싫어하는지 말해주세요. 어떻게 도와 드릴까요? 💓💓💓

### 1/5 — Why can’t I move on?

*2022-09-26, version 1.0.1*

Why can’t I move on without paying money?

### 1/5 — Jeu

*2022-07-06*

Ce jeu est complètement stupide aucune trame rien d’un ennuie total

**Developer response:** Merci pour vos commentaires. Nous sommes vraiment désolés. Peut-être serez-vous impressionné par nos autres jeux? 🧡

### 5/5 — A wonderful classic

*2026-08-03, version 1.4.2*

Full disclosure: I worked on the 2012 version of this game as a narrative designer for Big Fish. Playing it here in 2026, I’m impressed with how well it holds up as a wonderful classic in the HOPA genre.

### 5/5 — Très bon jeu

*2026-07-07*

Comme toujours !

**Developer response:** Un grand merci pour votre fidélité ! Votre soutien constant est notre plus belle motivation pour continuer à créer des aventures captivantes. ❤️🕵️‍♂️

### 5/5 — Just one thing

*2025-12-22, version 1.4.2*

The book constantly flapping is quite annoying. Can you turn that feature off?

### 5/5 — Highly Recommend

*2025-12-14, version 1.4.2*

Worth the time and cost! The game designs are beautiful, the storyline is a good length, the puzzles are fun, challenging and keep me on my toes.

### 5/5 — Mystery

*2024-11-14, version 1.1.1*

Great

### 5/5 — I miss games like this

*2024-10-10, version 1.1.1*

I miss playing games like this!! First time I’ve heard of Fox Friendly but not the first at playing hidden object/adventure games. This was awesome to play. The graphics were taking me back when I first started out playing games like this. The story line always got me and I’m like “he did whaaaaaat?” Hahaha I can’t wait to play the others.

### 5/5 — Beautiful

*2024-03-04, version 1.1.1*

I love these games, the artwork is stunning! I actually played the original many years ago so it’s lovely to get a remaster. Friendly Fox are the best studio for this genre, got most of their games. Perhaps we could get the otherworld series (spring of shadows, omens of summer, shades of fall) remastered one day? They were just amazing games, very sad they stopped working when Apple went 64bit.

### 5/5 — Sehr entspannend!

*2024-01-28*

Schöne Rätsel, sehr angenehmer Sound.

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank für die Bewertung und wir hoffen, dass Sie unsere Spiele auch in Zukunft spielen und genießen werden! 💖

### 5/5 — Wonderfully Designed!

*2023-12-15, version 1.1.1*

This game plays well and allows lots of hints. Great story and theme!

### 5/5 — Fun and Fascinating

*2023-12-04, version 1.1.1*

I enjoy this  game. It’s not too easy and yet not difficult either.  I highly recommend anyone purchasing and playing!
