As usual Elephant Games delivers on all fronts: graphics, sound, and gameplay. I did knock one star off because the bonus chapter was really short. ### 4/5 — It is good game, just not as good as others in the series *2016-04-24, version 1.0.0* I like Elf, and he's in this game...Yay! But while all the fundamentals are great, the plot just doesn't work with the MT series. And I'm used to some innovative thinking from this series, but this didn't have any. I wasn't going to review, because most of the other reviewers have made similar comments. Just So so so SO predictable. Find oil for a rusty lock, check. Use a coin to unscrew something, check. Run up stairs to battle the bad guy, check. And on and on. So, there's not much new I can say, except that some reviewers have said the game is short. I didn't find it short...just puerile, boring and cold. So, for me, it's a three star game and Elf gets his own little extra star. Hope all the reviewers are well. I saw Lynx has medical issues, sending prayers. And good wishes to all. Thank you for the excellent reviews. 🐈💐🌸🌼🌷🌹 ### 4/5 — Mystery Trackers: Winterpoint Tragedy by LynxMinx *2016-04-18, version 1.0.0* This game had a lot of good elements but I just did not enjoy it. There were varying levels of difficulty. It did have beautiful wintry graphics and exciting cut-scenes. The story was easy to follow. You get a bling scanner, a cell phone and your doggie Elf to help you. Lots of collectibles, including stars. Loading was instantaneous between locations and there was a marked teleport map to get you there. Inventory was labeled and there were plus items. The HO scenes were varied and interesting. A lot of the mini-games were rotational stuff that I don't really like, but some I did enjoy. The game was short, even with bonus adventure, and that is the main reason for deducting a star. I also felt it was slightly glitchy at times, but maybe it was me. At least for once Elephant didn't torture us with RATS! Maybe if my head was in a different place I would have liked it better, but I am experiencing a lot of medical issues and not thinking as clearly as I usually do. Dream Team Elite, please check out the New York Mysteries games from a developer called Five-BN! Amazing! KimTwilight mentioned them and they were fabulous. We are lucky to have her; she finds more games for us than BigFish, lol! Lynxie sends ❤️💋😘 to all! ### 3/5 — 😡😡😡 *2016-04-17, version 1.0.0* I can't get the moon!!! 😡😡😡😡 ### 3/5 — Mystery Trackers Are Usually My Favorite.... *2016-04-17, version 1.0.0* This was a good game but definitely didn't seem a lot like the usual Mystery Trackers games. Except for Elf there wasn't much else to make it feel like a part of the series. ### 3/5 — Glitch in minigame *2016-04-17, version 1.0.0* Game is ok, way too short and one of the multi-part mini games had a glitch where symbols did not appear, so it had to be skipped. ### 5/5 — Elf is back !!! A great game as usual ! *2016-04-16, version 1.0.0* First, I want to mention the length of the game, it is a standard length, that you will find in any other game, nice and long, so don't be misguided by some reviews. And it is another gem from Elephants, one of their best and for less of the price. You will find plenty of new stuff, the game is dynamic and interactive and very enjoyable. ### 5/5 — Elf is Back *2016-04-16, version 1.0.0* The best Hint button transports to the next location. You can customize the Hint and Skip buttons. Exciting story line, beautiful graphics. I wish the game is longer. ### 5/5 — Absolutely Intriguing! *2016-04-16, version 1.0.0* Love the suspense of the game! Keep it coming! ### 5/5 — Love it! *2016-04-16, version 1.0.0* Kudos to Big Fish and Elephant games for a total 5 star game! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Begs for reviews after purchase *2017-10-22, version 1.0.0* Too bad it’s a good game, but big fish is sooooo greedy ### 1/5 — Mystery Crashers *2016-04-21, version 1.0.0* ...is what it should have been named. I'm on an iPad mini 3 with around 90% free memory and I can't play for more than three minutes before it crashes. This has happened at least 10 times and I lose my progress every time. Thanks, Big Fish, for taking my money yet again and giving me a broken product. ### 1/5 — Winter point *2016-04-17, version 1.0.0* I was really enjoying this game until I got to to the hidden object game in the town. I found ever item except Mail!! I have spent an hour searching and searching and tap everywhere and everything on the screen, no luck. I try to use the hint but the creature just hops off the screen and resets my hint timer. Can not find any hint guides that point out where the MAIL item is in the HG game. I am stuck!! Ticks me off !!! ### 2/5 — TOO SHORT plus BF issues *2016-07-04, version 1.0.0* UNBELIEVABLY short, even at the sale price. Shame, because the game, what there was of it was great. Buying BF games is like gambling. Be prepared to lose your money. Long time customers are probably familiar with their abysmal customer "service". A new low for me was the latest Dark Dimensions: Homecoming. There were problems with the game. Big surprise, right? What was new was that instead of their usual do nothing, deny the problem, or blame the customer, they did somethings different. They did the right thing and updated the app....NOT. Actually, they did fix the app. The problem is that instead of issuing it as an update for those of us who had paid the broken app, they released the fixed version as a SEPARATE app. That way, they get rid of those pesky negative reviews so they can attract new buyers while completely screwing over the old buyers. They gave it a shiny new release date and 1.0 version number but the old broken app is still right there in the App Store. Also, this week, I discovered that the old buy once play forever....NOT... problem of the supposed past still exists. I went to open a game I had bought a while ago and it will not work on iOS 8 or newer. I never played this game. I bought a bunch of games during the last big sale. Can't get a refund because it's been over six months (from Apple, who have been great about giving BF refunds versus BF who not only never refunds, but makes you jump through stupid hoops with the promise of a refund, or otherwise strings you along in various ways until you give up). The multiple 1 star reviews clearly show that it is an issue with iOS but, again, they haven't fixed it AND they are continuing to sell an app they know won't work on current devices or older devices with current operating systems. They'll probably never change but there are alternatives which other reviewers have mentioned. Goodbye BF. ### 2/5 — Pretty bad *2016-05-23, version 1.0.0* This one was pretty bad. Who decided to take a chihuahua to the north pole and have it dig in snow? The guy in the lighthouse telephones you but then refuses to meet you? There are these super advanced creatures called northern men but they use magic because reasons. The inuit kid saying we must stop the northern man was unintentionally hilarious - i played him like a beat box. And the driving game had horrendous, tear-your-hair-out controls. The bonus game hung on me and i felt relieved. ### 2/5 — Winter *2016-04-21, version 1.0.0* This game is great I am a new beginner and I love the help I am able to get Great that you have different levels of difficulty ### 2/5 — Tedious at best *2016-04-18, version 1.0.0* Puzzles are all super easy. No logic or skill required. If you're looking for a mindless game that can be solved with busy work and in under a day, this is it! ### 2/5 — Weak, VERY SHORT *2016-04-17, version 1.0.0* Save your money.. The game is waaaaayyyy too short!!! It starts out good but then just gets very weak and disappointing.. I swear its employees of big fish that right all the "best game ever" reviews.. This is the worst mystery trackers.. A definite rip off!!! ### 3/5 — Elf is the best part *2016-04-21, version 1.0.0* Always love working with our faithful Elf. Rest of the game is okay. Kinda short. ### 3/5 — Meh...ok *2016-04-18, version 1.0.0* I don't tend to write reviews too often but I felt this game warranted a mediocre review. I was excited that it was a mystery tracker game. I think that was the problem. I was expecting a bit more. I always play on the casual mode but this was waaaay too easy and simple. I think it would have been more appropriate for my 8 year old. That said, it worked fine and was cohesive. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great game! *2018-01-27, version 1.0.0* The only problem was the triangle pieces toward the end. Had to restart as one was missing then restarted and it appeared. Weird. Loved because I hate ‘ghost’ games and such but this had a great sci-fi type story. ### 5/5 — Mystery Trackers : Winterpoint *2016-05-22, version 1.0.0* One of the best Mystery Tracker games so far !! Great graphics, interesting storyline, teleporting map, customizable game mode (which is a BIG plus, in my opinion), puzzles are interesting and not to difficult, HO , morphing objects, and stars to collect, and of course Elf, the ever faithful little companion. Definitely a game I would play more than once. Keep up the great work developers, and please keep making more games, like this one !! ### 5/5 — This was A GREAT ONE, Elephant Games! *2016-05-21, version 1.0.0* One of the very best M.T. games of them all. Each hidden object game was different, some better and more unusual than others (and not too many of them, thank goodness)! Some of your very best and never before seen mini-games as well!! Well done! You guys keep outdoing yourselves with each one of these! Loved it! Bravo ### 5/5 — Awesome Game! *2016-05-18, version 1.0.0* Love this series! Great storyline, wonderful hidden object scenes, puzzles and nice teleporting map. Elf is just too cute and what a helper. Always, look forward to this series. They never disappoint. Thank You, for such an incredible adventure. A must buy! Pure enjoyment.

Fun game ### 5/5 — Great Game *2016-04-17, version 1.0.0* So enjoyed this one. Look forward to more. ### 5/5 — Excellent Game *2016-04-17, version 1.0.0* Best one I've played in a very long time. Elephant does it again!! ### 5/5 — great game AND a story! *2016-04-17, version 1.0.0* Finally, a game that has all the details of a challenging, fun game plus an interesting story that follows its plot line and does not disappoint. Original collectibles, morphing objects, humorous surprise achievements, collecting STARS (who wouldn't enjoy collecting stars??) and a setting in my home of Interior Alaska. I can relate to the climate! I'm a happy camper. Good job, developers! *Update: completed the game. Still hold a high opinion of the clever design that went into this game. Suggestions for developers- 1. Some of the HO objects were very tiny and hard to discern. Can you enlarge them a bit? 2. Nobody teaches Alaska history well anywhere, except the university history profs in AK or Native elders. I've studied with both. May I help? You wove your Alaska setting better than any game I've encountered. However, there are 11 different Native groups in AK. Two are Eskimo (Yupik, Inuit), one Aleuts, and the others are various Indian tribes. The Interior is populated with the Indian tribes, while the northern and west/southwest coastal regions are inhabited by the Eskimos. Only the Tlingit tribe, an Indian tribe in the relatively warmer SE stretch of Alaska built and used totems as they were located near the lush Tongass forest. Eskimo and Interior Indians didn't build totems due to needing all available wood for burning simply to keep warm (-60 degree temps). Just some notes for authenticity :) ### 5/5 — Mystery Trackers Winterpoint Tragedy *2016-04-16, version 1.0.0* Elf! Big fan of Elf. Had to mention that first. Plus excellent game! ### 5/5 — Always the best *2016-04-16, version 1.0.0* Great story line, wonderful graphics. Mystery Tracker is never a let down. As always Elephant has done the job right the first time. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
