I won’t bore you with the annoying, oh it was so great and now it’s bad, and let’s just get down to the nitty gritty. After beating most of the levels and finally nearing the end on void mode, I suddenly encountered an error. Now it wasn’t just any bug like randomly dying or powers failing, but it completely gave me no credit on a level I had already finished in The City, void mode, the second to last level. Mind you, this level took me about 30 minutes to complete due to how hard it was, and now, it doesn’t even give me credit. First, I tried waiting another 2 minutes, but as expected, nothing happened. Next I tried restarting the app and waiting another additional 5 minutes, but still, nothing. I don’t understand how exactly this bug can happen, but it severely impacted my thoughts about this game, especially when the ending levels are near-impossible. Sure, I get it, it’s an old game, but shouldn’t that make it have a ton of updates that fixes bugs as significant as this? Other than that, pretty good game, but would like some answers, and will now have to unfortunately spend another 30 minutes of my life completing a hard level I already completed. ### 3/5 — Game exits itself *2024-02-26* I downloaded the game few days ago and after playing few levels, the game was started exiting when I click to open it . I un installed it and installed again but problem remains same . As soon as I click to open it, it exits m using iPhone 13. Please help ### 5/5 — Просто вау! *2024-02-22* Эта самая легендарная игра которую я играю ещё с детства! Я проходила ее уже бесконечное количество раз и все ещё играю. Очень хотелось бы увидеть вторую часть игры)) ### 5/5 — Rediscovering a creative classic *2023-11-18, version 2.2* The game is over ten years old and playing it again I am feeling the same wonder as when I first tried it. Beautiful and innovative. Atmospheric with compelling gameplay. ### 5/5 — Nihilumbra 2 *2023-11-12, version 2.2* Continue….. ### 5/5 — Круто *2022-07-10* Играл давно вот вспомнил о ней и решил купить ### 5/5 — Good game *2022-05-03, version 2.2* Im speaking with rose tinted glasses but this is legitimately my favourite mobile game. Its charming, kinda tricky and really pretty to look at. Highly recommend playing it, a lot of fun ### 5/5 — :/3 *2022-01-14* Да давай сделаем 2 ча ### 5/5 — One of the greats *2021-11-20, version 2.2* Great games like these are almost impossible to find anymore. The App Store is full of junk games with no imagination or soul, only marketing. We need more games like this and more developers like this. One of the great classics. ### 5/5 — Will there be a Nilumbra 2? *2021-04-25, version 2.2* Please? Would make an awesome sequel. Maybe you get to be another character or creature? Maybe you only get to be the void in “Void Mode”. *No other games found as good as this one, besides “Journey and Flower”. Idk if on the app store. ### 5/5 — Геймплей... *2021-04-19* Геймплей очень расслабляет. Но пожалуйста сделайте 2-ую часть! ### 3/5 — 진짜 역대급 게임입니다 *2021-03-24* 이상한 양산형 하지 마시고 이거하세요 인생게임 ### 5/5 — Please update this game! *2021-03-11, version 2.2* This was one of my favorite games back when I got my first iPhone.

Highly recommended. ### 5/5 — So nostalgic *2020-07-31, version 2.2* I remember playing this a while ago I absolutely adored it and I was amazed on how beautiful it was for a iOS game i just couldn’t remember the name but I finally found it again! You cant put into words how happy I am ### 5/5 — Любимая бездна___💓💜 *2020-07-18* Я играла в эту игры в детстве с сестрой, была маленькой и к сожалению не прошла , решила еще раз бросить ей вызов. Когда хотела её скачать, не смогла её найти, искали с сестрой, но не нашли, потом я вспомнила что на айпаде папы она вроде бы была, в надежде на это я решила проверить и вот скачала. Никак не могла забыть эту таинственную и тихую музыку, она будто залегла в моей голове и эту атмосферу глубокой и таинственный бездны, ну здравствуй...💜 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Tolle spiele *2025-09-09* So win tolls spiel 👍 ### 1/5 — iPod doesn’t work while playing *2023-04-01, version 2.2* You can’t listen to music while you play, so it doesn’t matter how good the actual game is. ### 1/5 — Crock of effluence *2019-11-29, version 2.2* What the hell have I purchased. The voice is depressing he should be the voice of the Samaritans. Deleted after 5 minutes ### 1/5 — Von der Steuerung her mangelhaft *2019-02-19* Wie oben erwähnt, auf dem PC vielleicht gut, aber aufgrund der Steuerung auf dem IPAD nicht zu empfehlen. ### 1/5 — So so *2016-11-21, version 2.2* Great game, horrible static left-right control made for baby's hands. ### 1/5 — Stürzt ab! *2016-06-25* Es stürzt oft ab. Im Vulkan bei Kapitel 6 kann ich gar nicht spielen weil es schon beim Laden abstürzt.😞 Bitte diesen Fehler beheben, spiele dieses Spiel nämlich sehr gerne!😊 ### 1/5 — Terrible *2016-04-29, version 2.2* Just like SMB if you don't like a soundtrack. Description was totally inaccurate. Worst ever. This exact *thing* is why I hate buying games you can't preview. ### 1/5 — Porcaria *2015-09-22* Acabei de atualizar e não da p/ jogar mais. O jogo abre e fecha em seguida. Tnc. E o jogo é simplesmente muito bom, que pena que ferrou. ### 1/5 — Crashes... *2015-03-03, version 2.0* I got on the app, through the intro level, but when I select the first level, it crashes... Please fix. ### 1/5 — Broken *2015-02-01, version 2.0* Now broken with iPad mini and ios8 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Nice *2026-08-01, version 2.2* This game is the best game that I’ve played in a while. It’s just awesome.🖤🖤🖤 ### 5/5 — Super 7 Sterne *2026-05-28* Nester spiele aller zeiten ### 5/5 — Such old reviews *2025-11-17, version 2.2* Please pleasee make either an update or make Nihilumbra 2! ### 5/5 — Such old reviews *2025-07-15, version 2.2* I also can't believe that theres reviews from 9 years ago ### 5/5 — 非常优秀非常好的一款游戏 *2025-04-25, version 2.2* 希望以后还能遇到这种优秀的好玩的有深度的游戏，这款游戏制作的非常的用心，这么多年来是我玩过的闯关类里最优秀的一个，不知道是游戏团队解散了还是怎么了没继续更新下去，还是期待会有新的关卡更新 ### 5/5 — Utter Genius! *2024-12-08, version 2.2* There's no words for this other than the perfect game. It's absolutely beautiful, everything from the story, to the game play, to the music has had so much thought put in to it that the creators have come up with a master piece. I keep worrying that it'll come to an end.... Yet it doesn't!! I wish I could give 50 x the stars... Thank you, thank you, thank you . Edit: probably nearly 10 years since I first played this gem and it still is the best gaming experience I’ve ever had, the narration combined with evocative music is the best of any game and the visuals are perfect add to that good puzzles and you get the perfect game. ### 5/5 — A very good game that could be great. *2024-12-07, version 2.2* It’s the platformer puzzler I was looking for. Well done, only have one complain. I can’t fathom why the left / right directional buttons are set up how they are. Need to be bigger, or separated or both. For a while I thought it was a a progressive slider. I constantly have to contort my thumb and still miss the directional inputs. 95% of deaths occur from missed inputs. Please fix:) ### 5/5 — nostalgia *2024-11-15, version 2.2* i found this game after searching for so long and trying to rack my brain for the name of this game. i LOVED this game as a child and i love it now. thank you thank you thank you ### 5/5 — Лучшая *2024-05-04* Да, пожалуй, одна из лучших игр в жанре. ### 5/5 — Update *2024-03-09, version 2.2* This game gives an error when you get out of it and want to go again, so you need to update it. please --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
