## What is Nightmare Asylum?

Strange things are happening at the local asylum and you've been tasked with the investigation. You must perform tasks for the inmates to gain their trust, and then find out what they know. Just don't be distracted by the screams that echo down the unlit corridors or the voices that whisper in your ear when no one is standing there...

Featuring a captivating combination of adventure and hidden object gameplay, asylum contains dozens of unnerving rooms to explore and each one is packed with secrets and pulsating with an undercurrent of dread. To solve the mystery of the asylum, you'll need to search for hundreds of items buried within the decaying rooms and hallways, and use special skills that allow you to locate objects quickly. Discover and use powerful artifacts, track your achievements, and experience multiple game modes, including the appropriately named "Scary nightmare mode." (You won't want to play this mode alone at night!)

Do you have a rational mind and a strong heart? If so, you just might survive to the end. If not, don't say we didn't warn you. Begin the descent into darkness today – if you dare!

### 2/5 — Looked good

*2022-02-06*

Game doesn’t load. Just a black screen

### 2/5 — Freezes in level ten.

*2021-03-29*

I have downloaded this game twice on an iPad.  Each time it freezes toward the end of level 10. I think this would be an awesome game if you could play the whole thing. But getting stopped at the same spot with no way to fix it but reset the game is a bummer.

### 3/5 — Unsure

*2020-10-18*

I got my first hall of fame item, the painting, and after the scenery changed I couldn’t interact with any of it! Strangely though, I still recovered my mental health, and the particles were still moving. 

Tried turning device on and off, deleting and playing back up to the same point, but I can’t play any further.

Very disappointing because I really loved the game so far, but I don’t know how to progress further. 

Would love a bug fix update.

### 1/5 — Won't open.

*2019-02-01*

I usually don't rate games. But I just down loaded this game and it won't open. So right now don't get this game. When it's fixed maybe I will give it a better rating.
