## Newest reviews (4 of 24)

### 3/5 — Мало уровней

*2025-04-19, version 0.0.4*

Всего 49 уровней…. Это очень печально

### 3/5 — Has potential

*2025-04-06, version 0.0.3*

The clues do need work:  with clues e.g. “The only criminal in column D is not in the criminal”.

Fun though.

### 2/5 — Please edit!!!

*2025-03-29, version 0.0.3*

The spelling and grammatical errors are driving me nuts!!!!!

### 2/5 — Poorly written clues

*2025-03-28, version 0.0.3*

The clues are not all properly translated to English in a way that makes some of them inaccurate.  Example: one clue was “The doctor are innocent.” There are 2 doctors, so I assumed it meant “the doctors are innocent.” But one was a criminal, so I don’t really know what exactly the clue was intended to say.  Another clue was “The criminal is bald.”  But there were no bald characters.  I deleted the app. Hopefully they get someone to work on that because it’s a pretty good logic game if done right.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Has potential but…

*2025-10-08, version 0.0.7*

The game is fun, and quite addictive! But… the way the clues are written can be quite confusing, sometimes plain silly, and sometimes just awful! It says that Denise is innocent but there’s no Denise, only a Dennis. Get a fluent English proofreader and make this game much better!
They have “teaser” offers that give you nothing after you press the button. This is baiting, not a good thing.
And, after level 50, the levels start to repeat randomly. 
Good graphics, bad grammar, repetitive levels, and baiting false offers. Don’t recommend it.

### 1/5 — Poor Translation

*2025-06-22, version 0.0.7*

The translation is so poor it causes lots of logic flaws. Or the clues will mention a character name, but the name isn’t even used in the level. 

Also, some of the clues sound outright racist. For example: “All of the black people with glasses are innocent” but then there are no black people with glasses. 🤯 Or mentioning the darkest skin tone over and over.

### 1/5 — Tasteless Clue Hints

*2025-06-08, version 0.0.7*

One of the clues directly mentions the criminal having the darkest skin tone. 

How rude and obviously stupid can you be to include that.

### 1/5 — Good idea, poor execution

*2025-04-26, version 0.0.4*

Unfortunately the translation to English is way off. Clues aren’t correct and lead to wrong answers. I.E, all people wearing glasses are innocent, but not one person is wearing glasses. Definitely needs to be refined before being a live game.

### 1/5 — wrong grammar and only goes to level 50

*2025-03-31, version 0.0.3*

when you get to level 50 it just repeats itself and the clues are off and the spelling is not always correct very poorly created game

### 1/5 — I really wanted to love this game, but I can’t!

*2025-03-29, version 0.0.3*

The premise of this game is so fun. I love doing it. However, there are so many problems with it. The grammar is horrific. The spelling is bad and some of the clues are wrong. For example, one said I have three criminal neighbors, and she actually only had two. Another one, said the only criminal in my column is Gregory. Gregory was in another column. It continued and continued until I had to stop. I am so very disappointed.

### 2/5 — Too many mistakes

*2025-08-08, version 0.0.7*

There’s too many mistakes in the clues. Names and locations are wrong. Also you can’t make any mistakes, otherwise you need to start over or watch ads… there are better versions of this game

### 2/5 — Перевод

*2025-06-27, version 0.0.7*

Отвратительный перевод, невозможно решить некоторые уровни, потому что логики ноль. Например, уровень 13, известно, что «все чернокожие, носящие очки, невиновны» и при этом нет ни одного чернокожего с очками. И ты просто сидишь и тыкаешь куда нибудь, лишь бы что от открыть, потому что инфы больше нет.

### 2/5 — Only 49 levels

*2025-05-04, version 0.0.4*

This socks only 49 levels. I want a refund for no ads.

### 2/5 — Well,

*2025-04-16, version 0.0.3*

I managed to work through all the weird clues. Made it to #50 and wham it’s over. I guess I’ll look for something similar.

### 5/5 — интересная игра

*2025-07-24, version 0.0.7*

отличная, захватывающая игра, прошла все уровни за пару часов, и они пошли по новой. жду продолжения !

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-07-05, version 0.0.7*

I like this app a lot and here why
1. It doesn't have much adds at all
2.it can be a bit challenging but there's always a way to win. 
3. A lot of levels to do
4. It let's you revive once for two options for 100 coins or a add
And last but not least it's 
5. You get 20 off the games coins each time you except if you're on the first level

### 5/5 — Love it

*2025-07-03, version 0.0.7*

Love it it’s so fun and it need so much focus so I do it at night and I’m 10 years old and I still love it

### 5/5 — In a Loop!!

*2025-04-28, version 0.0.4*

Really like this game and it improved significantly after the last update. Only issue is I am up to level 49 but every time I complete the puzzle it starts at level 49 again!!  I hope this isn’t the end of the game with no further levels, particularly given I paid for the ad free version after about 20 levels!!

### 5/5 — Good

*2025-03-02, version 0.0.1*

5stars

### 4/5 — Add more levels

*2025-04-26, version 0.0.4*

I do like the concept of the game.  Yes some clues could be written better but I will say the graphics are better than similar games.  It actually looks like real people not cartoonish.  Please add more levels and maybe you can do a story mode like find the killer or something like that.

### 3/5 — Repeats itself

*2025-07-11, version 0.0.7*

There are a few little errors and the levels end up feeling the same after a while (literally the same clues and criminals). But until you hit that point, the game is fun

### 3/5 — Typos

*2025-06-21, version 0.0.7*

Level 16 clue lists Denise but there is only Dennis. Confusing.

### 3/5 — Мало уровней

*2025-05-04, version 0.0.4*

Игра пройдена за вечер, 49 уровней мало

### 3/5 — Есть куда развиваться

*2025-04-24, version 0.0.4*

Очень мало уровней. 49, серьезно? Делайте еще! У вас хорошо получается
