### 3/5 — Fun but short and overpriced

*2026-03-18, version 1.06*

My review title says it all. Very cool game but felt extremely short. It’s not an expensive game but it’s more expensive than other games I’ve played but got more content. Overall I really love the game and mechanics. But how short it was took a lot away from it for me.

### 2/5 — Cool concept but not worth the headache

*2026-02-07, version 1.06*

It is far too convoluted. They offer inconsistently helpful hints. Zooming in and out of scenes when the clues are indicating out-of-order actions is beyond frustrating. I just got the train into the lighthouse and I’m done. Not worth it, waste of $5. Spare yourself.

### 2/5 — Do better

*2026-01-17, version 1.06*

Would be a great game, but it just doesn’t link properly.    Not worth the time

### 2/5 — Not for me

*2025-06-19*

Just not what I expected. Not as fun. It annoys me if anything ha

### 4/5 — 写真コンプ難し楽しい

*2025-02-27*

私程度の観察眼じゃ、一周じゃ写真コンプできなくて、シークレットエンドに辿り着けなくて楽しかったです。

### 3/5 — Great game, not available on Mac?

*2024-09-15*

This a great game and is is enjoyable on iPhone. However, why did the developers not allow Mac gamers to also play de game? I want to play on my Mac too

### 5/5 — The perfect hint is really convenient!

*2024-04-09*

After reading the review a few years ago, I was worried, but this game is very comfortable and responsive. I’m enjoying the beautiful cube world from the bottom of my heart! It very fun and good to collect photos and medals even after clearing. (App Store reviews are sometimes disappear automatically, so this review may also too.)

### 5/5 — ゴロゴアやモニュメントバレー好きな人は楽しめると思います。

*2024-03-02*

動きを想像しながら、噛み合うパーツを探していくという本作のギミックがとても刺さりました。
また、ヒントが丁寧なのも良かったです。

余談ですが、ヒントの設定欄に、今解いているパズルに使うパーツを明示するか否かを選ぶボタンがあるので、慣れている方はそのボタンを押して「チャレンジモード」でプレイすることをお勧めします。

### 5/5 — Best game ever

*2024-01-09, version 1.06*

I don’t write reviews but this game is beautiful! I completed it and wish there was another like it.

### 5/5 — Best game ever!

*2023-12-30, version 1.06*

This is a unique game that intertwines images to finish a puzzle. I’ve never played anything like this and hope they come out with more!

### 1/5 — Not Thought Out.

*2026-02-04*

This game is not intended or designed for iPhone. There are actions immediately next to each other, causing you to tap unnecessary things. I’ll even SEE the bubble of where I tapped appear in the spot I needed it to be, but it will still highlight the wrong thing. Beyond that, if there’s a storyline to this game, I’ve yet to see it or understand it. Because of that, I felt absolutely confused at every single challenge. Yes, after incessantly turning the cube, as there finite settings, it can be solved, but whoever designed this game, this is a lazy attempt at a logic/puzzle game.

### 1/5 — Great game, not available on Mac?

*2025-02-28*

This a great game and is is enjoyable on iPhone. However, why did the developers not allow Mac gamers to also play de game? I want to play on my Mac too.

In addition, there’s no support for Game Center achievements nor iCloud save sync. This is a deal-breaker.

### 1/5 — Complexity

*2025-01-15*

Mecanic of this game need
too many challenge and dexterity  to motivate
I not using it anymore

### 1/5 — Flawed touch interface

*2024-09-11, version 1.06*

Nice game until you get to the lighthouse intersecting with a birdcage trying to flip a light switch to light up another room. EVERY time I touch the switch on the screen the game fails to respond. It ALWAYS reverts back to backing out of one or the other side of the cube.
At first I thought it was me, but after watching the video hint, resetting the touch density , etc., and another 15-20 attempts I realized it’s the game interface.

### 1/5 — Not a fan

*2024-08-18, version 1.06*

It’s really poorly made and not worth the money.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2024-07-24*

Won’t open properly and crashes.  Another 7 bucks down the drain.

### 1/5 — Fix the bike wheel!

*2024-03-22, version 1.06*

I am BARELY into this game an I am sooo done. I am on the gate lock puzzle and the alignment of the bike wheel is supposedly perfect, per the glow..and no matter what I do the pedal will not turn. I zoom out. Reset the bottom picture to teddy bear, zoom back in to the perfectly aligned bike wheel and it’s not turning. Puzzle games should not be this hard.

### 1/5 — Ridiculously tiny images

*2024-01-21*

My iphone 14 is about 3x6.5 inches, this game uses a 2 inch square rotating cube containing the images that are the game. That is about 20% of the screen. Then you have to touch the screen with two fingers to highlight essential objects. But nothing happens when you click on those objects and the width of my fingers nearly covers up the entire 2 inch image.
What a piece of garbage. Stay away!!!

### 1/5 — Don’t bother, doesn’t work

*2024-01-21*

Don’t mind paying for games that work but this doesn’t, and seemingly no way to contact makers for help? I do exactly what the hint video says and the cube simply rotates. Maybe you need to shell out extra money for peripheral devices, who knows. Very frustrating

### 1/5 — Impossible to work on iPhone

*2024-01-06, version 1.06*

I’m twenty minutes in and had to delete the game. The game gives you the solution and it is still impossible to touch the screen in any way to make the solution work. I’ve looked online and several others also deleted the game at this stage.

### 5/5 — Waiting to play this game!

*2026-07-14*

I saw this game as a prototype at the NYU grad show sometime around 2019 and I was so impressed by the idea! I’ve been thinking of it since and trying to describe it to people. Ran into some of the program grads last weekend at a bar in Brooklyn and had to ask about it. Thrilled to learn it’s an app now that I can play! Chefs kiss. Such a unique and creative idea!

### 5/5 — Great game until I couldn’t manage the timing

*2026-04-17, version 1.06*

I remember playing this game and I eventually get to a point where there’s some timing involved that was very complex and I couldn’t get past it

### 5/5 — Well done

*2026-02-24*

Really enjoyed this puzzle story game… thinking in different angles that connect scenes was fun and the challenges quality without being too hard. Look forward to other games from this developer

### 5/5 — もう、何周めかなあ❣️

*2026-01-31*

パズルゲームなのに、ストーリー性が豊か

### 5/5 — エンディングがすごくいい

*2025-09-05*

エンディングは2つに分かれてますがどちらとも最高です1つ目は全て攻略すること2つ目は写真を全て取って1回目では使わなかったところがありますそこを繋げてください

### 5/5 — 大好きなゲームです！！

### 5/5 — Un jeu renversant

*2024-09-27*

Wow. 
Un jeu qui sort de l’ordinaire. Une histoire accrocheuse, une musique d’ambiance relaxante, des graphismes à couper le souffle. Je suis vraiment fasciné par le côté novateur de ce jeu. Ça valait chaque sou

### 5/5 — clever use of THINK OUSIDE BOX

*2024-08-25, version 1.06*

### 5/5 — Très sympa

*2024-07-20*

Un peu dur parfois, mais le système d’aide est pas mal. Par contre il est en anglais

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2024-05-07*

the sheer design of the structure and fluency of the game makes playing it feel frictionless and satisfying, while challenging your creative side… overall creating a great experience!!!
