### 4/5 — J adore

*2025-07-07, version 1.1.2*

Le jeu Est très bien mais il a une énigme avec un coffre en métal que je n'arrive pas à ouvrir j ai chercher dans toute la forêt dans les bâtiments dans les voiture et dans quelque autre endroit mais je ne trouve rien quelqu'un pourrait me dire comment faire!?

### 3/5 — Ok but short

*2025-03-24*

Decent enough point and click game. I wish there was more story that got unveiled as you solved the puzzles. I did have one puzzle glitch on me that wouldn’t take the answer even thought it was correct. Once I restarted the game, it worked fine but that did mean redoing a few puzzles as it doesn’t save your progress between levels. It definitely wasn’t 5 hours + of gameplay though. The puzzles are fairly straightforward so maybe 3 hours at most.

### 3/5 — An sich ganz gut

*2025-02-02, version 1.1.2*

Sehr sehr kurz

### 4/5 — Ich fand es klasse!

*2024-09-09, version 1.1.2*

Typisches Point and Click Adventure mit meist nachvollziehbaren Puzzles und schöner Grafik. Die Angabe, dass es Free to play ist, ist nicht ganz korrekt, aber 3€ für den Rest des Spiel ist günstig und hat sich für mich gelohnt. Der Umstand sollte aber erwähnt werden. 1 Stern Abzug, weil nicht durchgängig gespeichert wird. Ist aber nicht so schlimm.

### 3/5 — Fun trial version

*2023-10-28*

Oct 2023. Free play for about 10 min or less for experienced players. 

Once you unlock the door to the underground tunnel free play is over.

### 2/5 — Could be great, couple big problems

*2022-02-08*

I had high hopes for this game, the graphics looked good and the story sounded interesting. I only played the free part of the game. I decided not to purchase it because of the following issues:

1. This game is soooo freaking dark! Even with the brightness cranked up I could barely see the things I was supposed to be clicking on. 

2. Useless hints. If there’s a locked door and I click hint it is not at all helpful to tell me I need to find a key. I understand not wanting to completely give away the solution but maybe use a graduated hint system where the hints get progressively more detailed. 

3. The game is completely linear. There is only one correct thing to do at any time, nothing can be done out of order. This makes the game feel very unnatural, it is the opposite of immersion. 

4. Similarly you can’t interact with anything other than the things needed to progress the task. I like games where I can read signs, pick up papers on a desk and decide for MYSELF what’s useful and what’s not. At the very least I’d like to be able to click on things and have the character give me some feedback and a basic description. Especially since I can’t see what most things are. 

Again, I think there is some real potential here, but in its current state it is not something I’m willing to pay for.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback, I'm sorry to hear my game wasn't for you. I'd like to feel my newer games are much better and have developed since Mystery of Camp Enigma was first made. 

Sadly supporting a free game doesn't pay the bills, so in the meantime I will be concentrating on newer titles. 

In the future I will add all the features and improvements I have learned over the years and make the game even better. 

Thanks again.

### 3/5 — Very basic game

*2022-01-09, version 1.1.1*

I wondered at first why some of the M9 games have only a few ratings and they‘re all kinda bad until I played this one and knew why. Horrible game physics, weird design. Examples: the hose you need to fill gas into the truck looks like a piece of wire. Hints use up even when there is no futher hint coming on a subject. The developers answered to a player „the games saves at the end of every chapter“, but how do you know? Bullet holes on the wall form a number, another is printed on a car -> ???

### 3/5 — Progress not saving

*2021-11-02*

Playing on IOS 14; after reaching the level with the radio tower, any progress is not being saved. One point actually two tools were overplayed in one inventory box.  Enjoying but frustration is setting in.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback. I'll take a look and try and fix the bugs you have reported. Sorry for the frustrations!

### 2/5 — Problem with save

*2021-09-21*

Have been enjoying this game but now doesn't save chapter on ipad pro also annoying hint / ad gets in way of scenes top left corner.

**Developer response:** All saving should automatic so maybe you have discovered a bug. 

If you could let me know by email where about in the game you are when the game doesn't save then I can fix this.

### 3/5 — There’s a bug

*2021-03-21, version 1.0.5*

Great game, unfortunately when you get the torch for the dark room it disappears and you can’t get any further.

### 4/5 — When is part 2?

*2021-01-21*

Just got into it, and am now waiting for the next part. Are you going to add the more advanced save option from Mistico into this?

You are doing well!

**Developer response:** Thanks for playing my game! Yes the new save is coming to all my games!

### 3/5 — Disappointed

*2021-01-14*

Downloaded this game after reading reviews and wasn’t disappointed until I came out of the game, only to find that when I wanted to pick up where I left off I found my previous progress wasn’t saved so had to begin all over again!  I’ve now deleted it.   I wish developers would add a save option to an otherwise potentially great game.

**Developer response:** Thanks for giving my game a try, I have recently added a brilliant new save system to MISTICO. The same save system will be added to Mystery of Camp Enigma soon!

### 2/5 — El sistema de pistas es una estafa

*2021-01-06, version 1.0.2*

Pagas por 5 pistas y pierdes la mitad con pistas obvias (lnecesitas un destornillador” - como si no lo supieras) o te dan dos veces la misma o te dan una pista de algo que ya habías resuelto. No he visto un timo así en mi vida.

### 2/5 — Ok.

*2021-01-02*

The hints are pointless. They’re telling you what you already know and are repetitive and, of course, you have to pay for it.🙄

**Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for playing my game, once you have used your hints you can get more hints by watching a simple ad. You don't have to pay for anything! Happy adventuring!

### 4/5 — Great game

*2020-11-17*

Thoroughly enjoyed this puzzle, it’s atmospheric , challenging and fun. Well worth the 99p. 

One star lost because several puzzles which needed a specific sequence of characters - with multiple potential answers - don’t reset. So when I press the keys to see what happens, it’ll take that as the start of a sequence. Once I’ve wandered around and returned to the puzzle, I type in potentially the correct sequence but the object with which I’m interacting has retained the originally pressed keys, so I’m not at the beginning of the sequence. But the object doesn’t tell me that, so I press the correct sequence and variations thereof, get annoyed and leave the app!

If each object would just reset its sequence to the start when you click away and come back, the problem would be solved. Please please please add this functionality to any updates/ further chapters!

**Developer response:** Thanks for playing and enjoying my game! Most of the puzzle should reset themselves once you press so many buttons - there should be a beep. But yes resetting the puzzle when you move away could be a solution, the problem is some people like to input half a code and then get more info, returning when they have the second part. So it's a tough balance to accommodate as many people playing the game. But thanks for the feedback!

### 4/5 — Some Help Please

*2020-11-04*

Hi there! Can anyone share the code that was found in the dark room in the bunker. I had the flashlight and copied the code as 7153, but that appears to be wrong as the box in the first hallway won’t accept it. And now when I enter the dark room, the wall won’t illuminate again. Thank you!

Thank you, Developer!

**Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for playing! The code from the dark room should be read from left to right so the code is:

***SPOILER BELOW***

 5713

### 3/5 — Help

*2020-11-01*

I can’t decode the cryptic code. Turning off the electric fence was pure luck when I tapped on the power box by tapping all over the place. Other than that a good game so far.

**Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for playing! When you turned off the power to the electric fence you may have turned off the power to something else which could help you, I don't want to spoil what to do next but try turning the power back on and take a look around the area near the radio tower door / pathway.

### 1/5 — Don’t bother

*2025-08-17*

One of the worst games in that style. Low effort graphics, reused assets to a point it gets confusing. Puzzles unsolvable, not because they are too hard but because of gameplay issues. Hints are useless as they just state the obviously observable at first to push you into buying and buying more hints.

### 1/5 — There’s a bug

*2024-03-31, version 1.1.2*

Mystery of camp enigma - the gear disappeared for the lift - now unable to go further!

### 1/5 — Have to pay or watch ads….

*2022-07-10*

When I first loaded the game and started it there was a tab on the left labeled “Hints” and it had a count of five. Out of curiosity I clicked a number of times and they it indicated that you would have to either watch ads or pay to get hints. I have already paid for the game, I shouldn’t have to pay more. The intro it good, but I select games that I have to purchase over free games for a reason. I don’t want to have to deal with ads or find out that I have to potentially spend more money. I removed the game and will not play it. I will be requesting a refund. The description should warn the potential buyer that the game will be asking for more money or for you to watch ads.

Update:
    I appreciate the reply from the developers. I paid for the full game, so it was not free. I paid specifically to remove ads and in app purchases, yet it did not seem to make a difference.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your thoughts, I'll certainly be taking them into consideration in future updates.

Generally games that are free do include in app purchases, so I'm sure this wouldn't come as too much of a shock, but I do understand your disappointment and I'll look at making adjustments in the future.

Thanks again for trying my game, take care!

### 1/5 — Painful

*2022-01-06*

Can only review on the first 3 minutes of the game as I’m stuck.  The key I got from the safe magically disappeared after I got it while on my way to the truck.  Wow. Then attempted to restart the game. As I was only 3 minutes into it.  However after leaving the office it took me the place I was stuck at.  What a waist of my life.

**Developer response:** Sorry to hear you are having troubles. Have you used the key to open the truck? Items are removed from the inventory when they are used. If you could email me a more detailed description maybe I can help, as things obviously shouldn't disappear.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2021-08-17*

It keeps crashing

**Developer response:** Hi there, I need more information, feel free to reach out over email so I can help.

### 1/5 — No save option

*2021-07-10*

Gave up with this. After playing for a little while couldn’t find a save option, so had to close the game. On restarting the game took me back to the start.

**Developer response:** Hi there, the game automatically saves after you complete each part. So when you enter the bunker the game saves. Then just press 'Continue' to pick up where you left off!

### 1/5 — Unspielbar

*2020-11-06, version 1.0.2*

Fing gut an. Aber 5 hints sind ganz schnell verbraucht und somit viel zu teuer.
Das Spiel ist leider auch sowieso unbrauchbar, da bei einem Ausstieg aus einem aktuellen Spielstand dieser beim nächsten Einstieg einfach weg ist. Ich lande wieder im Boot und kann von vorne anfangen. Keine Ahnung wie man den Spielstang speichern kann..

### 1/5 — Game cannot be saved

*2020-09-23*

This looks like it would’ve been good but every time you shut the app down it goes straight back to the beginning. There is no way to return to any kind of options menu to save your game and there is no autosave! How absolutely ridiculous for a game to come on the App Store in this state! 

The developer says to push the continue button but what use is the continue button when you can’t save the game and when you reopen it it starts you at the beginning again!

**Developer response:** Hi there, the game is saved automatically when you complete each level. Once you begin the next level the game progress is saved. Then the next time you resume the game you can press the Continue button to resume where you left off. Ideally I would like a more polished save system, however this is the best I could do. Maybe future updates will bring a better save system. Thanks for playing!

### 2/5 — Really short

*2023-07-31*

I love this type of game but this one was sooo short. Also was very dark making finding things a little frustrating.

### 2/5 — Nur Demo

*2023-03-04, version 1.1.2*

Ganz kleines Spiel, das leider nicht als Demo deklariert wird.

### 5/5 — Bug drove me to a walkthrough, which convinced me it was a bug

*2021-12-29*

Was really enjoying this game. Got to the bit where you have to pump up the Jeep’s tire, and the keep takes you to a new area. Spent AGES trying to figure out what I was missing to get the flashlight to work in the dark area. Finally gave in and looked up a walkthrough and… It’s just supposed to work?! I have restarted the level like four times and mine still doesn’t, so I can’t get any further! :(

**Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for playing! It sounds like you have the flashlight but are missing the batteries? These can be found in a wooden crate on the left near the radio tower building. Drag the batteries onto the flashlight then go back to the dark area and drag the now working flashlight onto the scene and it should light up the cave area. Hope this helps :)

### 5/5 — Really enjoyable!

*2021-03-03*

Nice game.  Enjoyed the challenge of the puzzles which were complex but didn’t make me either cheat or give up.
Definitely willing to pay for another.
Well done!,

**Developer response:** Really glad you enjoyed the adventure! It's very encouraging when I hear people having fun with my game, makes it all worth the effort - Many thanks again for your kind words!

### 5/5 — Brilliant Adventure

*2021-02-11*

I wanted to play this after completing Mistico... I was able to play through the full game by watching ads... The hints were really helpful... if you kept getting a hint the answers were more detailed...

**Developer response:** Thanks for giving Mystery of Camp Enigma a go! Really glad you enjoyed it! :)

### 5/5 — Need help

*2020-11-10*

I’m totally hooked on this great game, also totally lost on the Morse code puzzle. Do you tap the lever or the dot/dash buttons? I’ve tried both ways and have tried urgent, help and sos.
Finally got it! Loved everything about this game.

**Developer response:** Hi there. Yes you have to press the dash/dot buttons, I guess you figured that out. Thanks for playing and enjoying my game! It's great to hear when someone really enjoys something I created so much. Take care.

### 5/5 — Very very good

*2020-10-26*

I have played I think all the games of this type on the App Store and am really impressed that this game was by a solo developer, there’s too few good games of this nature out there. This one had good locations, logical puzzles and was a generous price, if it had incorporated a little story and with a few more complex puzzles this would be up there with the top adventure games. A huge well done to this solo dev.

**Developer response:** Really glad you enjoyed my game and a big thank you for the generous feedback and review! Receiving great feedback really does give the motivation to create new chapters and further adventures!

### 5/5 — Problems with the Code

*2020-10-25, version 1.0.1*

I really loved this game so far, but I think there is a bug need to be fixed in the 2nd Level. There should be a Code entered on a Board in the first screen of this Underground Labyrinth thing. Due to all the hints, this Code needs to be something according to 7153/7135 or so. But every combination i tried seemed wrong. Can you help me please.

Edit:
It worked, thank you so much

### 5/5 — Frustratingly Addictive

*2020-10-24*

Kept coming back to the game as just when I thought I was on the right track I couldn’t seem to find the next step, but so wanted to complete it! Just the right level of difficulty for someone who likes real life escape rooms. Although graphic is dark I was able to complete the game by searching around, very impressed for an independent game developer. Will be downloading the next instalment.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the review, really glad you enjoyed playing my game!

### 5/5 — Quality puzzle

*2020-10-23*

I stumbled on this and thought it looked worth a go. Probably like many of you out there I download hundreds of puzzles but the majority of them get deleted within a few minutes.

I kind of knew straight away that this had something going for it. I used my 5 free hints up quite quickly but found a walkthrough for the first 2 chapters which I checked for a couple of things I got stuck on, thankfully I managed to complete the remaining ones with my own initiative and a bit of trial and error.

It is quite dark in many scenes, I guess this is for atmosphere but did find a few items by accident because of the darkness. In my opinion the puzzles were good and quite logical, I always judge a puzzle by how much I lose myself in it, I had been playing this for an hour or so and then had to pop out, I couldn’t wait to get back and continue which I did.

99p for the game is a real bargain but I think the hints are quite expensive.... for what it’s worth I would make the game more expensive (it is well worth it) and then make the hints free. Either way I am really looking forward to the next chapters, any idea when they will be ?

I can see from the other reviews that this is all the work of a single guy.... a big well done to you Sir, keep up the great work 👍🏻👏🤛🏻

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the fantastic review and feedback! 

It means a lot to hear that you enjoyed the game so much and provides the motivation to make the next chapter!

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2020-10-06*

Thoroughly enjoyed it.  Thank you for your game.

**Developer response:** Really glad you enjoyed playing! :)
