Magic City Detective: Revenge by LynxMinx
Attention all gamers. I have a very important update. I heard from Oleg today. He assured me that Domini will continue to release HO games on all platforms. As long as it’s iOS that’s what counts. And now I have the upper hand as well. So it’s a chance to make some improvements! We need novelty and innovation. I am going to try my best here. This is the replacement series for Secret City. (Ameer is now a female called Ymir and there are merfolk and magical creatures). This game was enjoyable, although inventory usage was not very innovative. There were a couple of new tools so I know that some of the creative team can think outside the box. It was evident in the terrific mix of HO puzzles and mini-games. Quality assurance has actually improved quite a bit. If that department would just enhance the touchscreen sensitivity on the gameplay interface, we would have no issues acquiring or using inventory, or completing puzzles! I have written to the department head, so we will see. I was excited that the game setting was Venice. It’s a city I love, where I ate gelato, gambled at Lido, stayed at a very exclusive hotel, and fell on every bridge in Venice! I must hold the world record for that one, lol! The game had beautiful scenery and the storyline held my interest. My actual rating will be 4.5 stars. I deducted only one half star for touchscreen sensitivity and for the same boring inventory tools. Domini needs to look at my creative idea. It would open up a whole new avenue for them and boost revenues. Happy gaming, everyone!

Fails after a point
The game was going along fine until I cut out the glass from the store window and then you can’t go past that point. So glad I hadn’t already paid for it.
Ok but buggy
The game is fine but in the ‘deluxe’ version it can kick you out of the special sections into scenes you have previously completed and you have no way of moving forward. This leave you with no option but to delete and reinstall, losing all progress. This is incredibly frustrating.
Stopped working
As much as I love playing these games, this one really frustrated me. It stopped working after giving the statue his trident. I tried using hints, but it just kept telling me there was nothing else to do in that part of the game. Someone needs to figure this out. I paid for the game and can’t finish it.

No bonus chapter
Not sure why but unable to access bonus chapter games just will not let me access anything after main game complete. 1st the glitch with the gondola now this. Not very happy. Hopefully someone will sort this out
Stopped working
I would’ve given this five stars however, it won’t let me go any further than the guy in the gondola. Don’t waste your money.
Taking 4 stars.
I have reinstalled game 3 times and the still, I can not give the ferryman the paper because he’s not there when I tap on him. It’s a shame I can’t finish the game. I was enjoying it.
Major bug fail
I’m running on an IPad Pro, latest version of iOS. Was enjoying the game but when I needed to give the address to Shady San Palo, the screen doesn’t show the gondolier, just water and I’m unable to move forward. I stopped, unloaded all active games, then restarted and ran into the same bug. At least I hadn’t paid for it yet.

Loved playing - but !
Loved this game so far but there’s a glitch at the gondola
I have the address I need but I’m unable to move forward
Hopefully this will be resolved soon

Not Worth the Frustration
Because I liked the concept, I keep reloading it and invariably come to a play that won't do what it should. It's a different sticking-spot each time--once, no hints. No ink--although I can SEE it sitting there. Hints make no difference, I've found. Forget it.

Can’t finish
I’m near the end. I opened the pedestal and took the fan and magic cards. Closed the game for the night, and when I came back, the cards and fan were gone, the pedestal was closed - with the shield in place - and there were no moves left anywhere. I can’t finish the game. I hate wasting money.
Impossible to finish
I have reached a point in the game where I have tweezers, a carabiner, and a hose clamp. Only 3 locations are accessible. Noe of the items work on anything, and help says there is nothing to do. Two stars is generous for a defective product
Crashes
Game keeps crashing. Cannot play. Needs to be fixed.
Great adventure
I am enjoying the game but it is very difficult to understand the games by simply the description. Please rewrite the “How to’s” of the games.
Great game
Another great game! Just wish it wasn’t so expensive
Update causes problems
Just updated this game for minor bugs fix and it has deleted my whole game to date so I now have to start from the beginning again! Also has many glitches. Please fix this asap
Big fish
I love it
Much better
Loved the innovative HO scenes and the map in Venice. Of course there was still boring inventory usage in some scenes,but overall a solid game. I did have trouble in the bonus game to acquire the moon symbol, where I could not pick up an item, and therefore was forced to use the match 3 option. No other issues, so my rating will be a 4.
