The narration and story is also great. Really original, well done. **Developer response:** Thanks so much for playing! If you enjoyed this game you’ll love our new game Eastern Market Murder. ### 3/5 — Cannot purchase *2020-02-11, version 1.0.3* It keeps saying purchase does not succeed when I wanted to get the full version ### 5/5 — Fantastic fun *2020-01-23, version 1.0.3* We took a group of 12-15 year olds to Melbourne and did this as an activity. They had a fantastic time. So much to learn,see and do. A worthwhile activity and the game developers were so welcoming. We’ll be taking more groups. ### 5/5 — Gailmccormackart *2019-11-15, version 1.0.2* We Very much enjoyed playing this Melbourne True Crime Mystery game. We played off site, loved the close interaction with the characters in our lounge room. Maud was just as we imagined her to be, it was a pleasure to pour her several glasses of wine. Well done guys on an informative, easy to navigate game, I look forward to the next one in the series ### 5/5 — Millbrook Digger *2019-10-25, version 1.0.2* What a fantastic idea to build an app so true to the historic record of the turn of Melbourne’s 20th century. Obviously a time much more colourful and edgy than today. I like the idea that in playing the game you can be guided through the actual inner streets where all the crime and drama occurred while also getting some tourism done. While I have initially played the game at home in New Zealand it will be top of my list to play it again when next at the actual sites in Melbourne. The use by the developers of Augmented Reality in the game adds a new dimension for an “ old stager” like myself . Can’t wait for 10Tickles next app release. ### 5/5 — Loved the way the story was put together. *2019-10-15, version 1.0.1* The interaction with the characters worked well, especially pouring the wine when I worked out how to do it. I thoroughly enjoyed the historical aspects and the behaviour of the characters involved in the crime. I’m 75 and felt the game was intuitive enough to play through to the end without rushing. It was really good fun! ### 5/5 — A great immersive experience! *2019-10-07, version 1.0* We were so excited to play this game and found the experience completely captivating! I’ve lived in Melbourne most of my life and knew almost nothing about Little Lon and these diabolical characters. Brilliant for the visitor and local alike! The animation, character voices and music give you a complete package. Great tip to charge your device fully before starting and bring your own headphones. ### 5/5 — Brilliant game, even for a non-gamer *2019-10-07, version 1.0* Our family of not-really-gamers loved playing this game. What a fantastic way to explore a new city or in our case discover a whole new side of a city we thought we already knew. ### 5/5 — Next level ‘Who done it’ App *2019-10-07, version 1.0* This App supercharges the ‘who done it’ concept with an immersive AI experience. Such a cool way to experience the history of Melbourne. ### 5/5 — Loved it!! *2019-10-06, version 1.0* The whole family participated today and we had so much fun keying putting the pieces together. Such a great thing for a group or even if you are alone. Thanks for making my Sunday so enjoyable. ## Frequently asked questions about Misadventure In Little Lon ### What is Misadventure In Little Lon about?
