### 4/5 — lynx minx stop posting spoilers

*2025-09-03*

I really wish lynx minx would stop posting spoilers.  I feel like every game I want to try gets ruined by her dumb reviews.  No need to give away practically the whole plot.  I like this game but it’s only getting four stars because you guys allow this person ruin numerous games with her critiques.  Just talk about the graphics and how it runs smoothly.  Let the gamers find out the plot themselves.  Sheesh.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback! We completely understand your concern — spoilers can really affect the experience. 😞 We appreciate you sharing your thoughts and will take your comments into account. We’re glad you enjoy the game itself💛

### 4/5 — Good game BUT

*2025-05-09*

Price is ridiculous for the age of the game

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We understand that price can be an important factor when choosing a game, and it is in line with the level of content, updates and support we provide. We are constantly working to improve and enhance the game for our players. We hope you can enjoy all its benefits! ❤️❤️❤️

### 4/5 — Maze: Stolen Minds Mystery

*2025-03-30*

The game was okay. I really thought I was going to enjoy love the game. But I did not. I had to tap on items a couple of times. The game was not lengthy for the price. J.F. 2025

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We are sorry that the game did not meet your expectations. Regarding the sensitivity of the clicks, the team is constantly working on optimizing the gameplay. As for the duration, the developers are trying to find a balance between the quality and volume of content, but we will take your comments into account for the future 😊💗

### 4/5 — Maze: Stolen Minds

*2025-03-29*

This is an older game developed by MadHead, and it has the usual quirky gameplay customary to that developer.  The game was fairly short, inclusive of the bonus game.  The scenes were dark and sometimes hard to navigate, but overall it is a 4 rated game.  FYI - watch out for the huge rat in the bonus section if you have a fear of them.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! Yes, this game has MadHead's signature style with unique gameplay. They tried to create an atmospheric world, although we understand that dark scenes can be a challenge ❤️❤️❤️

### 5/5 — Maze: Stolen Minds by LynxMinx

*2025-03-29*

This paranormal mystery from Mad Head, distributed by Friendly Fox, will keep you on the edge of your seat. You must play mind games to escape your captor. It’s a thrilling and frightening adventure with horror and intrigue mixed together. The tasks are interesting and quirky, and you will enjoy the terrific HO scenes and mini-games. This exciting adventure is a must-play and purchase! If I say any more, I will be giving you spoilers and you do not want me to do so. Thank you so much to Friendly Fox for releasing this gem, which was a request that I had made! It means the world to me!
The only spoiler has nothing to do with this game. Towards the end of April, our beloved Friendly Fox will release an installment in the Living Legends series. So now you have something else to eagerly await!

**Developer response:** Thank you for the great review! We are very glad that you liked the game and were able to provide such an exciting experience. Your words inspire us, and we will definitely continue to work on interesting and original stories. We are also looking forward to the release of the new game in the Living Legends series and hope that it will bring you even more joy! ❤️❤️❤️

### 5/5 — 👏🥰🌟👌

Wow what a game it was fantastic! Similar to the broken tower. I love these kind of games 😘

**Developer response:** This kind of feedback gives us the motivation to keep improving. Thank you! 🤗

### 1/5 — Ad is a lie - NOT a free game

*2025-05-28, version 1.1.0*

Can only play for a short time before being cut off and forced to buy the game if you want to keep playing. Can't finish the whole story. Only get about 20mins of free playing

### 1/5 — Awful

*2025-05-12*

This was dark and difficult to see. Directions were sometimes incomplete and hidden objects were so covered up it was impossible to see them.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We are sorry that the game from these developers did not meet your expectations. We still offer other games in our usual style - maybe you will like them more. We will be glad if you give them a chance! 💗💗💗

### 1/5 — Dark and Dingy

*2025-04-11*

Not impressed so far, definitely not up the usual high standards, too dark and dingy, some of the hidden objects are almost impossible to see.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We're sorry that this game didn't impress you - we've included projects from different developers to diversify the gaming experience. We understand that the style of the game may seem too dark, but we will definitely take your comments into account in the future! 💖💖💖

### 2/5 — Hidden cost

*2026-06-15*

The only mystery here is the developer letting you go through one chapter then having to pay to play which is not clear in the playstore. Deleted

**Developer response:** As noted in the game description, the first chapter serves as a free trial so you can test the experience before making a choice. We completely understand that everyone has different preferences, which is why we also create separate free-to-play games. We'd love for you to check them out! 🎮💛

### 2/5 — Price

*2026-06-06*

The games are fine but why does each individual game cost so much? $7 and around 5 gamers per series wth

**Developer response:** Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Behind every single game is a vast amount of dedication, time, and resources to ensure high-quality artwork, storytelling, and mechanics. We always strive to find a fair balance between the cost of development and the value we deliver.
That being said, we completely understand that everyone has different preferences, which is why we also offer our F2P (Free-to-Play) versions so you can enjoy the stories in a way that suits you best! ❤️⚖️

### 2/5 — Feels dated

*2025-05-10*

Unlike almost all other Fox Friendly games, this one feels dated. It contains none of the nice features of their other games.
I couldn’t make it past the first 20 mins and disappointed I spent money on it.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review! We are sorry that this game did not meet your expectations. We realize that it is different from the style you are used to. However, we continue to release our classic games that you might enjoy more. Thank you for staying with us! 💞

### 3/5 — Just ok so far

*2025-08-03*

I would have given this game a higher rating but when trying to complete a mini puzzle, I followed the hint EXACTLY but the game still said it was wrong. Very frustrating!

**Developer response:** Thank you for sharing your experience! All puzzles are carefully tested before release, and many players have successfully completed this mini-game — their reviews reflect that. If you're experiencing any technical issues, feel free to reach out to us at support@friendlyfox.studio 🧡

### 3/5 — Old game?

*2025-05-06*

I feel like I already played this game on iphone a few years ago, or at least a very similar “maze” game.  I prefer the fantasy games anyway though

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review! Perhaps you did come across a similar game - ideas sometimes overlap. You may have come across this game from direct developers. We are glad that you like our fantasy games, and we will definitely take your preferences into account in the future! ❤️❤️❤️

### 3/5 — Dumb mind

*2025-04-17*

Well I don’t know what all the five stars were for. I 
Found the game tedious and so boring took me 
weeks to finish because I just did not feel like
playing it for hours like I do with all of Friendy
Fox games. I hope we will be getting a much
better game in the future.
I think you can get a deal with another  gaming
company that  will have better games then 
Mad head games. 🥱

**Developer response:** Thank you for your honest feedback! We're sorry that you didn't enjoy this game as much as the previous ones. Each project is the result of a great teamwork, and we always strive to get better. We hope you enjoy the other games on our list ❤️‍🔥

### 4/5 — Nice game

*2026-04-24*

I really enjoyed the game, the puzzles weren’t too easy or too difficult. Sadly I can’t justify paying £6.99 for the whole game, times are hard! 
Loved the game though

**Developer response:** We completely understand that pricing is an important consideration. 💛
We always do our best to ensure the value reflects the quality and creativity put into each project.  If you’d still like to explore our worlds, we’d love for you to try our F2P (Free-to-Play) versions! It’s a great way to keep the adventure going without the cost. Thanks for playing with us! 🎮🆓

### 5/5 — Great story

*2026-06-28*

It’s a great story line but too short for $6.99

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the kind words!💖
 We understand that pricing can raise different opinions. Game development is a complex and resource-intensive process involving many specialists working behind the scenes. We always aim to ensure the price reflects the quality and creativity put into each project. We also have a selection of free-to-play games available, so you can always find something that suits you. 🙂

### 5/5 — Lynx Minx

*2026-02-26*

I personally love Lynx Minx reviews! I can’t believe someone on here said they don’t like the reviews! I know of there is a good review from Lynx Minx that it will be a good game! Don listen to the haters Lynx! Thank you for all your reviews!

**Developer response:** Thanks a lot for your kind words! 💛
We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed the game — we truly put our hearts into making it a fun experience for you! 😊

### 5/5 — Voice actor?

*2026-01-12*

The villain in this has a real sexy voice. Had to check the voice was actually the game 😅

**Developer response:** That’s wonderful to hear 😄
Our voice actors will be very happy to know their performance left such a strong impression. Thank you for sharing—it truly made our day! 💛

### 5/5 — Tough, but challenging

*2025-12-02*

Hard one. But after you’ve done a bunch of these, you appreciate the difficulty.  Just escaped from the first scene, so maybe I’ll regret it later….

**Developer response:** Challenging puzzles always make the victory feel even sweeter, so don’t give up — you’ve got this! 💪 Enjoy the adventure! 🚀

### 5/5 — Maze: Stolen Minds by LynxMinx

*2025-06-12*

This paranormal mystery from Mad Head, distributed by Friendly Fox, will keep you on the edge of your seat. You must play mind games to escape your captor. Of course, your tormentor is certifiably insane, and it’s not exactly great news that you are trapped in an abandoned mental hospital. Even the police won’t help you! It’s a thrilling and frightening adventure with horror and intrigue mixed together. The tasks are interesting and quirky, and you will enjoy the terrific HO scenes and mini-games. This exciting adventure is a must-play and purchase! If I say any more, I will be giving you spoilers and you do not want me to do so. Thank you so much to Friendly Fox for releasing this gem, which was a request that I had made. It means the world to me!
The only spoiler has nothing to do with this game. Towards the end of April, our beloved Friendly Fox will release an installment in the Living Legends series. So now you have something else to eagerly await!

### 5/5 — Great Scary Fun!

*2025-06-11*

Thanks to Friendly Fox for this release! It was tons of fun with a couple of good jump scares to add to the party! Smooth gameplay and a welcome addition to the series!

**Developer response:** Your support fuels us! Keep playing and having fun! ⚡💪

### 5/5 — Maze

*2025-05-30, version 1.1.0*

This is a pretty good game…one price, unlimited hints, levels of difficulty, good story and graphics, interesting, intriguing. It has all the things I like about a hidden object game. Thank you!

### 5/5 — WOW

*2025-05-16*

More games like this, it is mind blowing. Play it, I.   dare you.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your support! We work hard on our games, and your feedback means a lot to us 💕

### 5/5 — Enjoyment

*2025-05-08*

I really enjoyed this game and find it enjoyable. In the past I purchased quite a few games from Apple. This was the first game I purchased  a game since 2019 and was surprised to see how much games cost and to add to the price there is now a tax. I will probably limited my purchases, however this game was worth the cost..

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We're glad you enjoyed the game. We understand your concerns about prices and taxes, as this issue is more dependent on the platform you purchase the game on. However, we always strive to provide the best quality and content so that every purchase is worth the price. Thank you for your support! 🧡🧡🧡

### 5/5 — This Thriller “Wracked” my Mind!

*2025-03-31*

Mad Head did it: They “created a monster”! Somehow, they concocted a psychologically traumatizing masterpiece that interweaves a spine-tingling, hanging-on-to-the-edge-of-your-seat plot with disturbingly macabre imagery and chilling, fight-till-the-end gameplay. You’re driving down a seemingly quiet, desolate road; and all of a sudden, you crash your car and wind up kidnapped by an evil psychopath. You’re then forced to undergo your most trying tribulation yet, as you fight for your life against all odds while finding your way out of your imprisonment. True to this series, the visuals and ambiance are unnerving and ill-boding, cultivating a feeling of trepidation while I traverse the haunting asylum, and amplifying a fear of what obscured, hideous secret might be released from behind the dark shadows. The creepy background effects, such as the eerie screams of torture and the ominous musicality, are frighteningly immersive, adding layers of suspense and inducing quite a few jump scares. The gameplay is outdated considering this game was released a few years ago. The hidden object scenes mostly comprise word lists with minimal interactivity. The puzzles, which suit your objectives, are heavy on the rotational type; some might take some time to work out. The collectibles are inconspicuously blended into the environments. To sum it up, I think the storyline resembles a catchy horror-like movie; however, the gameplay is a bit underwhelming due to the lack of creativity within the hidden-object scenes, except for a few.  I still really enjoyed playing this game, so my 4.5 rating is bumped up to 5 stars.

**Developer response:** Wow, thank you for such an emotional and detailed review! We're glad that the game was able to evoke so many strong impressions and immerse you in the atmosphere of a real psychological thriller ❤️‍🔥
