I never discovered what the so-called energy regeneration system actually did to increase or replace the energy either despite investing in it. Pity, as the concept is good and the actual game play and puzzles are interesting. But honestly….fine if you are a millionaire! ### 2/5 — Not a long term game *2026-07-05, version 3.18.2* I enjoyed the game for one year even though the side quests were repeated, and i mean exactly the same. Then i hit the end of new adventures. There was one bonus quest that then repeated itself. I verified on the FAQ that there is no intent to make any additional main story quests. If you enjoy this kind of game i recommend Diggy’s adventure at least that is maintained. ### 2/5 — The game sucks *2026-07-05, version 3.18.2* It’s a fun game, but I tap on one thing and reload, the game went back to the beginning. I HATE IT ### 3/5 — Crashes *2026-06-22, version 3.18.2* I’ve been playing this game for a long time Great games, great graphics BUT crashes continuously. Tried all the fixes more than once.Lucky to get a couple of minutes play before it crashes. It’s gotten worse over time. ### 2/5 — Expensive *2026-06-19, version 3.18.2* The game is clearly only interested in your wallet! And gives minuscule amounts of energy/ coins resources etc in return, not recommended in the least! Particularly if you want to eat! Game ad says it’s free but it’s impossible to play without spending money plus you’re bombarded with ads for other pixel games and have to wait too long for things to regenerate, basically it’s boring or very very expensive! No real explanation of the game, how things work etc and often too dark For example how to gain or spend pixel coins. The lab takes forever to produce potions especially if you have to wait for something else to finish first. And it seems to be timed so you’re kept waiting for everything! And precious little of that! ### 2/5 — Lost progress *2026-06-01, version 3.18.1* Twice now I’ve started this game. Played a few hours. Sort of enjoyed it but not as much as other things. For some reason, rather than being able to come back to the game after a month or so, I had to start all over again. So I did, now I find the same thing has happened. Can I be bothered to start again a third time? Why on earth is this happening?? ### 4/5 — A good Challenge *2026-04-22, version 3.18.0* I do like the challenges within this game, but all I would say is that sometimes there isn’t a clear explanation for the challenges ### 4/5 — Game *2026-03-26, version 3.18.0* It is a lot better than it was. It still lags quite a bit. ### 3/5 — More *2026-03-21, version 3.18.0* I have come to the puzzle adventure universe and I guess that is the end for now. Are you planning on adding more chapters? ### 4/5 — Game crash *2026-03-09, version 3.18.0* I am enjoying Puzzle adventure but get a little frustrated that the game crashes 80% of the time when returning home And some adds freeze and crash the game ### 3/5 — Screen movement *2026-03-04, version 3.17.0* The game seemed ok but the auto movement of the screen made me feel sick. ### 4/5 — 4 out of 5, looping commercials discerning *2026-02-14, version 3.17.0* 4 stars for game, but annoying commercials make it less than 5 stars. Game play is great but the looping 2 minute commercials are really annoying and make me want to delete the app. Commercials in a game are expected, however, looping commercials that seem to never end is a deal breaker! ### 3/5 — I don’t spend money *2026-01-19, version 3.17.0* I like to play this game, but why do they have to charge 78 to do a break? Causes one to not be able to play too long if one does not spend money. People who stick to there guns of not spending money on these games will play way less. I watch adds to give me a chance to build but I never will spend money ### 4/5 — 詐欺やめて *2026-01-17, version 3.17.0* 楽しくて遊んでいますが、しっかりCMを見せた挙句“新しいビデオはありません“と言って報酬を渡さない詐欺をちょいちょい入れてくるので、やる気が失せます。 ### 2/5 — Lost progress *2026-01-14* Twice now I’ve started this game. Played a few hours. Sort of enjoyed it but not as much as other things. For some reason, rather than being able to come back to the game after a month or so, I had to start all over again. So I did, now I find the same thing has happened. Can I be bothered to start again a third time? Why on earth is this happening?? **Developer response:** Hi, thank you for sharing your experience.

We appreciate your feedback! - Marek ### 3/5 — Dialogues with some characters are not displayed *2026-01-08, version 3.17.0* Some dialogues with characters aren’t displayed. I mean, not when the dialogues are at the bottom of the screen, but specifically the phrases which are displayed in a ‘cloud’ above the head of the character ### 2/5 — Sooooo many ads - makes the game trash *2026-01-03, version 3.16.0* This game is ridiculous for ads. You HAVE to watch ads for basic daily goals and rewards and just to try to keep up. Yet even watching 30 ads a day I still struggle to have much play time and progress, given the increasing energy costs making gameplay short even though you keep improving. I double my rewards for keys with ads, yet any time there is a chest opportunity the cost keeps going up so I can never collect enough keys even with the ads. That is one example of how gameplay is very out of whack, like the devs have never tried to play their own game like a normal player who works during the day and maybe can only play at night, or who tries to advance but can never meet the ever-increasing requirements which are always just out of reach. The ads though, why do I have to click 6 times for a single ad? It used to be 10 seconds per ad with one X. Now it it 4 to 6 X’s over 30 or more seconds each, or an X every 9 seconds times 4 times. Stop allowing these ads! They are trash! The fact the devs allow this ad nonsense makes this game trash because all you are doing is watching ads. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ads galore *2026-05-21, version 3.18.1* Ads, ads and yet more ads. I’m leaving this game again. ### 1/5 — Not great *2026-05-05, version 3.18.0* It takes forever to load, back and forth to play, long cut scenes, repetitive tasks, boring to earn game time, you get about 2 mind of have time... Rather avoid ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2025-12-19, version 3.16.0* I played this game for a long time and really liked it. Sometimes my grandkids would play with me. As time went on I noticed the characters and events took on a dark evilish tone that I frowned at. When the fowl language got thrown it I cut it off. I do not recommend this game now for children. ### 1/5 — iOS 26, batterie non optimisée… et beaucoup trop de pub qui atteignent presque 1 minute :-( *2025-10-27, version 3.15.1* Bonjour, Depuis le passage à iOS 26, je note une utilisation démesurée de la batterie qui se vide en un rien de temps lorsque l’on joue et même lorsque l’application est en arrière plan. Que ce soit sur iPhone 12 Pro ou iPad Air 4eme génération… Et arrêtez de mettre des pubs qui atteignent pour certaines presque 1 minute. On les reconnaît et des qu’elles se lancent, on pose le téléphone pour revenir plus tard… on ne les regarde même pas.., ### 1/5 — イベントが進めない😢 *2025-10-18, version 3.15.1* ホラーストーリーの古いアーカイブが開かない‼️至急改善してほしい😭😭😭 ### 1/5 — No money for you *2025-10-09, version 3.14.5* I love this game but like all games I get sick of watching ads, but even worse than that is an “extra” to the game where I can play for bonuses to make the game easier but….the game uses bot accounts that couldn’t possibly achieve what it does to try and push you to “buying” advantages. No money for you!!! ### 1/5 — Good game now totally ruined *2025-09-27, version 3.14.4* Update: The game is over! Level 244 is the end of the line. Instead of creating a new storyline, the decision was made to reward end gamers with the monotony of endless reputation of boring events with zero challenge. Don’t waste your money on this one! The dev’s have done it again and took a good playable game and turned it into a money grab. Unless you are able to dedicate your day to this singular game, you’ll have no chance at all of completing the events. Even worse, the energy requirements for regular game play are so high you’ll be lucky to play for 3 minutes once every 3-4 hours. And, expect to have to watch multiple ads just to keep up with the enormous energy requirements as well as shards, coins, etc just to open new levels after having suffered through the previous one. Such a shame for a nice game with a lot of promise. ### 1/5 — Estafa *2025-09-11, version 3.13.0* Esto está llegando ya a ser una auténtica estafa, te sacan un evento nuevo bueno nuevo, es un decir que titulan búsqueda de la historia, compras el pase de la historia del evento 12 € y resulta que no hay historia que jugar la historia no avanza en absoluto No hay capítulos nuevos. Unos auténticos sinvergüenzas. Qué pena que este juego con lo bueno que era como se lo están cargando. ### 1/5 — Not working *2025-08-18, version 3.12.6* It hasn’t worked for over a week. I keep getting a connection error but my internet is fine. ### 1/5 — Very repetitive *2025-08-14, version 3.12.6* A very repetitive game. Gets so boring as you progress in the game all you do is wait for energy to be crafted only to last 5 minutes. Its a pitty as the game has potential. Ive given up and deleted this game. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I like this puzzle adventure games *2026-08-11, version 3.19.0* It’s a nice game to if you have an iPad like me ### 5/5 — Good game, but *2026-07-16, version 3.18.3* So I basically just started this game, I am around level 19? Anyway I understand the game won’t be maintained anymore, however when I tried to play today, there was a new game, it says play now and the leaderboard shows people playing, but mine just comes up with tasks? It won’t go to the game, so I thought I’ll see if there is an update, and wow there was, so I updated the game, and I still cannot play? Not sure what is wrong, so very sad, since this game has great graphics, 3D, and a cute story line. I hope it gets fixed. ### 5/5 — コツコツと楽しくやってます。 *2026-06-20* やり始めて一年半今はコツコツエネルギーを集めてます。　 私自身焦らないタイプだから。　 謎解きゲームが大好きです。　 今一番ハマってるかな。　 エラーも無く順調に進までます。　 これから､ますます楽しみ〜＾＾ **Developer response:** ご意見ありがとうございます。ネット接続の問題により楽しさが損なわれていることをお聞きし、残念に思います。ぜひアプリ内のサポートを活用して、具体的な詳細をお聞かせください。 ### 5/5 — This game sucks *2026-05-27, version 3.18.1* Crashes every 5 minutes. Ready to quit playing. Junk junk junk. Junk junk junk junk junk junk. ### 5/5 — I love this game! *2026-05-25, version 3.18.1* I don’t know why, but when I play this game, the next time I go on, it starts me over at the beginning. Not good, dudes! Fix that shh! ### 5/5 — Cool *2026-03-14, version 3.18.0* Enjoyable game nice gfx ### 5/5 — Fun and entertaining *2026-03-13, version 3.18.0* Love it really fun game ### 5/5 — Adventure *2026-02-11, version 3.17.0* Fun adventure with light puzzles and light farming. You can run out of energy to play and have the option to buy some, but you can usually continue without buying. The stories are fun! ### 5/5 — 최고의게임 *2026-02-09* 이 게임뿐만 아니라 이 회사 출시한 게임은 다 재밌어요 **Developer response:** 안녕하세요! 저희 게임뿐만 아니라 다른 게임들까지 즐겨주셔서 정말 감사드립니다. 재미있게 즐기시는 모습을 보니 큰 보람을 느낍니다. 앞으로도 기대에 부응할 수 있도록 노력하겠습니다! 😊 Marek 드림 ### 5/5 — Love the game *2026-01-09, version 3.17.0* It one of my daily games --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
