### 2/5 — cute idea

*2026-07-14, version 1.0.1*

it was very cute, but it was very anticlimactic and not very action packed. maybe i’m just a hater idk.

### 4/5 — Игра СУПЕР

*2026-07-04*

И на телефоне и на PS супер но в PS Lost constellation игра когда выхожу со священной горы черный экран исправьте тогда будет 5 звезд

### 4/5 — Loved the story but controls are too clunky

*2026-01-06, version 1.0.1*

Loved the story but found it hard to play through as the game had minor glitches and the controls were a slight hindrance throughout my gameplay.

### 4/5 — I LOVE THIS GAME!!

*2025-12-03, version 1.0.1*

I love the game a LOTTTTTT!! Great characters, amazing dark spooky scenes, and I love just everything about this!But I do wish that the game is longer, has more lore other than playing it again and stuff and changing choices and whatever, and was a bit more darker about Mea and her having insomnia, more lore about Casey, and more about the stuff of the insomnia in this world of the game. But aside from that, I really like this game!!!!

### 2/5 — Bugs? Major Spoilers if you haven’t played yet asw.

*2025-11-17, version 1.0.1*

Just to preface, this game is absolutely fantastic, honestly the story, the characters and the art are all brilliant and this game irrevocably changed me as a person when I first played this in 2020. I was really excited to see this on the App Store here and I’ve been playing it for the past week or so but for some reason, I’ve reached the end but it’s skipped out the entire cult confrontation? I’m really disappointed cuz I’ve been genuinely looking forward to it, is this a bug?

### 2/5 — Good animation and that’s it I guess

*2025-08-05, version 1.0.1*

Not much of a game. There is an unfinished storyline but we spend most time following around the main characters spending time doing nothing. Quite philosophical in some points but I found it extremely boring

### 5/5 — i cried. twice

*2025-06-02, version 1.0.1*

although its better on consle or pc this game is beutiful and  very true. As a college dropout this game just brings me so much emotion. I reccomend 100% the contols are slightly buggy but thats the only issue!

### 5/5 — Definitely worth the $6

*2025-05-26, version 1.0.1*

I've played through this game twice on Xbox and honestly ready for a 3rd play through on my iPhone. Definitely an automatic 5 stars without a second thought.

### 5/5 — Soundtrack is Peak

*2025-05-19, version 1.0.1*

Tbh it’s one of the best games ever in my opinion and The characters are good

### 3/5 — 🙂

*2025-04-25, version 1.0.1*

Fun but they lowkey talk to much

### 5/5 — Really good, but better on console

*2025-03-02, version 1.0.1*

This is one of my absolute favorite games. The story is amazing and so is the art and music. If you want to buy the game i suggest getting it on nintendo, playstation etc (if your able to) the controls are a lot better and the game play is just easier overall.

### 5/5 — Masterpiece

*2025-01-25*

These are the games that make gaming important…. These are the games people look for in the Apple Store once in a lifetime experience.

### 2/5 — I’m rather confused?

*2025-01-09, version 1.0.1*

I’m stuck in the mineshaft at the door blocked by wood planks and I’m trying to tap to get them off because I saw a tutorial to do it but I think it’s glitched because no matter what I do it just moves the hands it doesn’t actually grab the board and I tried exciting out and everything but it won’t change can I please get help? I’d love to proceed

### 2/5 — El juego es genial

*2025-01-03, version 1.0.1*

El juego es una maravilla, pero no entiendo por qué no está disponible en español si este mismo juego en otras plataformas está subtitulado al castellano.

### 3/5 — Snowballs issue

*2024-12-07, version 1.0.1*

I am having a problem collecting snowballs in the Lost Constellation, however many times I click on the ground to collect the snowballs, the character jumps instead. What shall I do then?

### 3/5 — Языковая поддержка

*2024-11-30*

Я не понимаю, в том же стиме у игры есть языки помимо английского, почему же вы не перенесли их сюда?
Так игра перенесена почти неплохо, но миниигру с гитарками не очень удобно играть.

### 5/5 — I cried

*2024-11-24*

play at your own risk!

### 1/5 — Not worth the money

*2025-08-14, version 1.0.1*

This game was recommended as something similar to another game I’ve played and loved, but I just can’t get into it. All you do is move around town very slowly having boring dialogue with the characters, then occasionally you get to jump on something. Wow. I was so excited when I read the other reviews but I honestly don’t see what they’re seeing. It’s not gripped me at all and, in my opinion, was a waste of money.

### 1/5 — No puedo completar un nivel o algo asi

*2025-02-03, version 1.0.1*

No puedo agarrar el objeto y además mira muy rápido y no puedo y además ponganlo en español

### 1/5 — Não tem opção para o idioma português

*2024-12-19*

era pra no mínimo o jogo ter várias traduções inclusive a português, como que um jogo paga não fez o mínimo? se eu pudesse eu daria nenhuma estrela

### 1/5 — Ok

*2024-07-16, version 1.0.1*

This is so boring!! Bought cuz of reviews but way too much to read. It’s nothing like oxenfree which is amazing!! Was looking for a game similar and was directed to this game. Sad I spent money on this. I kept tapping the screen to get me through all the text but I got anxious cuz it’s never ending. Don’t waste your money!!

### 1/5 — No iCloud save backup

*2024-04-28, version 1.0.1*

…

### 1/5 — Graveyard bug

*2024-04-07, version 1.0.1*

Unfortunately can’t get through the graveyard, it’s too difficult to jump onto the last roof before the gate

### 1/5 — Boring

*2024-03-15, version 1.0.1*

Unless you just want to read non stop text bubbles, this is all you do in this game. Will be asking for a refund.

### 1/5 — The worst

*2023-11-21, version 1.0.1*

I am not an arcader. This game includes not a single piece of instruction for an iPad. How do I jump? What is the notebook for? Total waste of money as I cannot move or do anything.

### 1/5 — Lots of aimless tapping

*2023-09-30, version 1.0.1*

I wish I hadn’t purchased this.  Finally went back to it, and it’s just as bad as I remember, lots and lots of skipping through pointless dialogue.

### 1/5 — So boring

*2022-12-28, version 1.0.1*

This is not a game, it’s walking around (slowly, over and over again) looking at stuff and reading endless, pointless dialogue. No real puzzles, very little interaction. It looks good but that’s it.
If you’re looking for a good point and click puzzle adventure, this is one to avoid.

### 5/5 — Spectacular

*2026-03-06, version 1.0.1*

I love this game so much. The characters, the art, the soundtrack, the story, everything about this game is just beautiful. And you can play it multiple times over too for different stories. I love everything about this game. I love coming back every once in a while too to play.

### 5/5 — Night in the woods OMG i love it 😍😍😍😁😁😁❤️❤️ thank you :)

*2025-08-02, version 1.0.1*

I freaking absolutely love night in the wooods the story line this app is the most emotional most heartwarming app I could’ve ever asked for developers if you’re reading this I truly feel like this game has seriously made me a very serious gamer and I got so upset when the app was temporarily removed from the App Store please keep this game on the App Store also for younger people yes this app this game is scary in some ways but it’s 100% worth the purchase Mae is a college dropout at 20 and you get to play this game for 9 hours honestly I wish this was a movie. This is a freaking masterpiece. I hope never dies I always feel like ever since 2020 games feel fake but this game inspired me with the 2017 energy I am giving this game a 154/10 meaning it’s so much better than I would’ve ever expected especially on console yes I also have it on console. I paid more and I don’t regret it all. Ignore all the haters please I’ve never loved a game so much the art and the development is amazing 
: now onto what I recommend purchasing this 10000% unless you don’t like games that actually have a story that means something that you would never regret purchasing unless you’re just ignorant thanks so much developers of this game for making this game and that’s all I have to say have a great day 😎😎😁👍
