### 5/5 — We need more!

*2024-12-15*

I adore this game! I wish there was more episodes. This is the type of game that I really enjoy. I’m a Huge fan of Miss Fisher’s books and Tv series! I really wish that was that the maker’s of this game would continue making lots more

### 3/5 — Meh

*2024-07-20, version 2.1*

Finished the first episode, couldn’t get the second without paying.

### 5/5 — Need more!! Plz come back

*2024-03-24*

Really love it. It’s as smooth as the episodes. I’m so excited about the adventure in Shanghai but sadly it’s not continuing. Could there be any chance for 3rd episodes?

### 5/5 — Love! Love! Love this game but we’re is episode 3?

*2023-12-21*

I love this game but we’re is episode three? I would love to know what happens next. This game is so fantastic!

### 5/5 — Fun Series, Fans Want More!

*2023-08-07*

The television series was such fun to watch and I was thrilled to see a game tie-in! Sadly, there are only two episodes and it is probably too much to hope that they will release more. That said, each episode is a stand-alone mystery to solve within an overarching frame of a larger storyline and I would love to reach the conclusion of that greater story! Most of the time you are playing the Phryne Fisher character and working to solve a murder, but there are side quests with some of the other characters such as Dot, Jack, etc. I love mystery adventure games and the format of this is somewhere between such a game and a game-novel, since you are mostly led through the story but still have to make some deductions on your own to get to the ending. If you enjoyed the books and/or the television series, this download is highly recommended!

### 5/5 — Perfect for Miss Fisher fans!!

*2023-03-11*

I LOVE this game! I particularly love how authentic the characters are represented, even so far as lots of great opportunities for Phryne and Jack to flirt ❤️

Very engaging. And I really appreciate character development between the episodes. Really good storyboarding. 

I NEED episode 3 and beyond. How can we help get this going? Kickstarter? I can’t wait to see the next mystery to solve!!

### 5/5 — A fun game - wishing for ep 3!

*2022-06-28*

I agree with everything rebeccaatthepicnic wrote in her review. This game is fun, and I’m really hoping there will be an episode 3 at some point!

### 5/5 — Fun little game for Miss Fisher Fans

*2021-01-12*

This is a great little game for those of us die hard Miss Fisher Murder Mystery fans. I can’t wait for episode 3! Hopefully they will create one since it’s been 3 years since the last one.

### 1/5 — Awful! Game gets stuck halfway thru

*2020-07-29*

I’m a fan of the movie, books & tv but this game is a waste of money. The Game keeps telling you to “deduce” and I’ve run the clues every possible way but the game won’t move you forward past a certain point. Very frustrating & a waste of money. Very disappointing.

### 2/5 — Doesn’t flow well.

*2020-06-26, version 2.1*

Not enough options or clues. Pieces of clothing to change Phryne’s outfits almost impossible to see. Need to add puzzles to make it more interesting as a game. Will continue watching it on TV.
