### 4/5 — Abstract

*2026-06-14, version 2.3.6*

We played online with a group,  This game is so abstract, it took a few rounds to get the hang of it. But we had fun & once we understood the game enjoyed playing the ghost too. The visions are often quite difficult to match up to the character/weapon, I feel like if you could reshuffle your vision cards if there was no viable option that would help things along.

### 1/5 — DONT BUY- DOESNT WORK

*2026-01-09, version 2.3.6*

App doesn’t work. It won’t connect to the server to allow you to play. Several people have reported issues Asmodee are ignoring this. Waste of time and money

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2025-12-30, version 2.3.6*

Love it since I often have trouble finding someone to play the actual board game with! 

It’d be cool if you added the ghost vision cards, suspect cards and location cards from Mysterium Park as well!

### 4/5 — Bon jeu de plateau

*2025-12-19*

Serait-il possible de l’améliorer afin qu’il soit optimiser pour les derniers appareils? Je suis sur iPad Air 24 et ça ne prend pas tout l’écran. Pareil pour Jaipur. 2 excellents jeux. Merci

### 1/5 — No logic

*2025-12-02, version 2.3.6*

Basis is artistic interpretation!!!

### 4/5 — Support

*2025-08-11, version 2.3.6*

This app doesn’t seem to be supported anymore. I love the board game. So, I’m happy I can play on my own. There are few glitches and  I haven’t tried anything other than solo.

### 1/5 — Please help

*2025-06-18, version 2.3.6*

I am one of the original players but now I cannot press the play button anymore to play online, and if it does let me in (sometimes after playing solo) I cannot make games anyway. Please help. I have tried the support but my messages have not been responded too.

I want to give this five stars because the game was great

### 1/5 — Modo historia no Deja progresar

*2025-06-10, version 2.3.6*

En el capítulo 2 del tutorial no Deja avanzar, se engancha cuando debes arrastrar la carta de visión para ganar puntos. Podrían corregirlo?

### 1/5 — Mysterium app no longer works

*2025-01-26, version 2.3.6*

Don’t bother wasting money, app no longer supported

### 4/5 — Bug

*2024-07-30, version 2.3.6*

В кінці коли привид дає 3 карти, видно лише одну з трьох. Інші дві перевернути сорочкою вверх і необхідно вгадати вбивцю лише з однієї карти
