### 1/5 — Sad. Game doesn’t play right, no matter which version you buy

*2021-04-19, version 1.0.0*

I’ve bought and played dozens of their HO games. This one has more bugs than I’ve ever experienced with their games. The owl and hang glider don’t work properly, voices are out of sync, jump ahead or disappear to where you have to exit and start again. Progress is not always saved or accurate. Very sad as I normally really enjoy their games.

### 4/5 — Audio bug

*2016-02-18, version 1.0.0*

Character voices often dont work unless i restart the game; and then I lose some progress. This bug happens alot with Eipix games. Otherwise good game

### 5/5 — Outstanding

*2015-12-26, version 1.0.0*

Love the story and graphics! These are always great games to play. This is not a dark story which is so much nicer.

### 5/5 — It is good

*2015-11-27, version 1.0.0*

It is good game. I know the words are small, so I read it ok. Mini games were okay. Fewest I can't figure it out. I enjoy the game anyway.

### 4/5 — Eipix does it again

*2015-11-25, version 1.0.0*

Friends & Followers,
Enjoyable play time with intriguing HO's & mini games. Nice story flow with well delineated background scenery.  Voice characterization for the most part on par.
Annoyances that caused loss in rating (which is unusual for Eipix): Notification icon when one has found "collectible" at times does not register, along with fading in & out.  Map not very helpful, which lent for one having to go back & forth too many times in-between scenes.  Adventure "dragged on" a bit in places, even with long playing time. Needs free trial phase, even though game is worth iPad & iPhone sale price.
No problems with loading & using on iPad or iPhone, although game definitely plays better on iPad, or some other type of tablet device.
Thank you for your continued support & following.

### 5/5 — Fantastic!

*2015-11-25, version 1.0.0*

Great addition to the series. I've really enjoyed the other "Off the Record" games so far and this one is no exception. The storyline is good, the characters (minus the voice acting) are interesting and it is a good amount of play time. The only negatives are: you must be very precise when using an inventory item or selecting something in a HOS, or it doesn't recognize it. Several times I wasn't sure what to do because the item I tried to use wouldn't work even though it was right. Also, some of the mini games are difficult to figure out because the directions are either not explained well or confusing themselves. Otherwise, great game. I'm looking forward to the next one!

### 2/5 — NOT FOR IPHONE 👿

*2015-11-22, version 1.0.0*

I am finished buying games that give you no trial. I mean it. This is the last money you will see from me, Big Fish, without a trial period. The wording is soooo tiny you need a magnifying glass to read it and the items, not only in the hos, but everywhere are minuscule. 
DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS USELESS GAME!!!!
