### 3/5 — I miss Rick too

*2025-01-16, version 1.0.6*

All of us players who have enjoyed the series really deserve some sort of answer as to whether the series will continue on with Rachel and the team or if Rick will eventually return. As for the game itself, it was OK. Not the worst not the best. I did have several of my inventory pieces just not be there. The circles were there and the items were there they were just invisible. They could still be used, but it was a little annoying to have to figure out which circle held which inventory piece. Other than that it was OK -- but again please tell us about Rick. Enough is enough.UPDATE: I’ve seen this mentioned recently and I have same problem on downloading game. When I hit the unlock button, the screen goes dark and there’s no way to play. Also happening with Detectives United 6. Have reported.

### 3/5 — Paranormal Files: Ghost Chapter by LynxMinx

*2023-10-12, version 1.0.3*

I really did not love this game. This was the first one in the series that I didn’t like. The series revolves around Rick,  and without his sarcastic sense of humor and acerbic wit, the game fell flat. The graphics were very blurry, and finding those collectible eyes was a terrible strain on my eyes. The storyline was not novel or unique, and neither was the gameplay. There was a severe lack of touchscreen sensitivity on the gameplay interface. It made it impossible to place the puzzle pieces in the secret room. In addition, I found another glitch which could have been fatal. When I tried to place the mold over the heater it disappeared! I had to totally reset the game and replay it up to that point. I did enjoy traveling through portals as Rachel across the space-time continuum. However I felt very bored throughout most of the game. My rating will remain at 3 stars for average! Stay well, everyone!

**Developer response:** Hello, thank you for the review! We understand your frustration and we would love to give you more answers, but we just can't share spoliers for future games :(

### 3/5 — Chapter3 before Crypt

*2023-02-09, version 1.0.3*

入れません。鍵のパーツをひとつしか取れないままアクション出来なくなります。

I really did not love  this game. This was the first one in the series that I didn’t like. The series revolves around Nick, and without his sarcastic sense of humor and acerbic wit, the game fell flat. The graphics were very blurry, and finding those collectible eyes was a terrible strain on my eyes. The storyline was not novel or unique, and neither was the gameplay.

### 4/5 — Great game, but…

*2021-09-24, version 1.0.0*

This was a great game to play, but as someone else mentioned, the premise gets lost in the story. What happened to Rick?? 

Can’t wait for a sequel to hopefully tie things together.

Would have liked to see a little longer story line considering the price, but still enjoyable.

### 3/5 — Looks good but it’s buggy

*2021-09-10*

Portrait puzzle is broken. Can’t move name plates around properly. Gave up and deleted game.

**Developer response:** Hello! Could you please share some details with us at support@elephant-games.com? It would be great if you could include such information as: 1) name of your device  and 2) screenshot of the mentioned scene. Looking forward to your response!

### 4/5 — Where’s Rick?

*2021-09-07, version 1.0.0*

The story starts out with Rick and Rachel  wing called to investigate a mysterious business that seems to have weird occurrences, but continues to move. Rick and Rachael finally find this store and Rick disappears. 13 years later, Rachel and her team find a mansion by the same name and goes to investigate…..and this is where you lost me. Only one time throughout the game is Rick even mentioned. Instead we follow a family trapped by their fathers evil deeds. Think Alister Crowley meets the 13 ghosts, the remake not the original. The game was fun to play and the graphics and story line with the paranormal was right up my alley but I gave it 4 stars for its in cohesiveness. I hope there’s another game soon that ties this all together.

### 1/5 — 日本語になりません

*2025-06-26, version 1.1.1.76*

日本語に設定してますが日本語に翻訳されないです‥

### 1/5 — Ok dann halt nochmal kaufen

*2024-12-24, version 1.0.6*

Warum funktioniert der Freischalten Button nicht? Man kann ja wohl kaum kaufen, wenn der Button nicht funktioniert.. Bildschirm bleibt beim laden schwarz.

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2022-01-20, version 1.0.1*

Made sure to check if the game was just a trial and pay to unlock the full game before downloading it , not one word of just a free trial. Start playing the game and low and behold you have to pay to play 😠

### 1/5 — 😟☹️😟☹️😟☹️😟☹️

*2021-09-01, version 1.0.0*

Mal wieder nicht in deutsch.☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️

### 2/5 — Can not unlock collector’s edition

*2024-12-08, version 1.0.6*

Wanted to play this game’s collector’s edition, but touching unlock on the first screen, just gets me black screen and stays there till I restart the game. After restarting I can play the game, but still can’t unlock. Playing on iPad 9th generation with latest iPadOS. Can you fix this please. You would probably tell me that my connection is bad, but it is not. All my other apps connecting with no issues

### 2/5 — Developers help!

*2021-11-20, version 1.0.0*

I need help 🥺 while playing this game (which is amazing the way) I somehow messed up. While inside the crypt and using the magic glass, I swiped wrong and the glass went out of the viewer and I can’t get it back.. I don’t want to reset the game so please help me if possible. This game is fantastic with puzzles I’ve never come across before. I’ll change my rating to 5 stars if I can get some help!

### 2/5 — Had a fatal glitch for me

*2021-11-04, version 1.0.0*

Just bought this, then reached a glitch in the game that would not let me continue. I’m not going to play thru again to see if it happens twice. Bummer. Was a decent HOP game. They need to program an override in these games.

### 2/5 — It’s fine until the bug

*2021-10-10, version 1.0.0*

Pretty standard point and click/hidden object adventure. You know what to expect for $4.99. There’s a bug inside the crypt with the glass. No response from the developers.

### 2/5 — Boredom

*2021-10-01*

Elephant Games has been the best for along time, but the format is the exact same as ever. To be honest, it’s just boring now.

### 2/5 — Too short again!

*2021-08-29, version 1.0.0*

Can’t help feeling a bit ripped off by this one and the last one elephant published. Way shorter than usual.

### 5/5 — Fabulous!

*2021-09-09, version 1.0.0*

Great game in every way. Can’t wait for the next episode!

### 5/5 — Great game

*2021-09-07, version 1.0.0*

Finally it feels like the developers are reading reviews,really enjoyed playing this one! great mini games graphics were good and it did feel like a longer game play this time around 🙌🏻👍🏻

### 5/5 — Played perfectly

*2021-09-04, version 1.0.0*

So glad to have a developer who ensures that their games play properly.  Great game.  Keep it up.

### 5/5 — Entertaining

*2021-09-04, version 1.0.0*

I haven’t purchased an Elephant game in awhile due to way to many puzzles and HOS as I enjoy a lot of adventure but this one caught me. It was a nice mix of everything. I really enjoyed the various hidden objects scenes. A tad short but well worth it!

### 5/5 — Sehr spannend !!!

*2021-09-03, version 1.0.0*

Das Spiel ist wieder mal grafisch ein Genuss. Auch das diesesmal Rachel die Hauptperson ist, und wir uns auf die Suche nach Rick machen müssen, ist spannend. Lieber Buddha 66, ein Spiel sollte fairerweise nach seiner Qualität beurteilt werden, und nicht nach verfügbaren Sprachen. Klar, ist es nicht schön wenn man ein Spiel nicht spielen kann weil man kein Englisch versteht, dafür gibt es viele andere in deutsch. Vielleicht hat Elephant einfach im Moment keine Möglichkeit in deutsch zu übersetzen, das sollte man respektieren, und lieber gar nicht bewerten als immer nur schlecht. Sorry, das musste gesagt werden.

### 5/5 — 💫😍

*2021-08-30, version 1.0.0*

That’s more like it! Loved this game was a good length , loads of little puzzles along the way and the storyline was brilliant!⭐️💫

### 5/5 — Ghost Chapter

*2021-08-29, version 1.0.0*

It was so good to have a game based on the paranormal, while also being dark and suspenseful. The game had intrigue and great hidden object puzzles throughout. Ghost Chapter  itself had a storyline based upon a family with dark secrets and ghosts which were not too spooky so not like a horror story. I found the story went very well in solving the mystery and the bonus game was just as good although very short. I thoroughly enjoyed playing this game and look forward to the next one.

### 5/5 — Oh Rick… Where are you?

*2021-08-29, version 1.0.0*

Rick’s disappeared right before Rachel’s eyes! And now after thirteen years of fruitless searching, she has finally discovered a lead! Will she find Rick or meet her doom?

Awesome game! Cannot wait for the sequel!!

### 4/5 — Not enough

*2021-12-16, version 1.0.0*

While I loved the game and the puzzles, I wish there were more! I’m upset that it seems to not be over yet. Unless I missed it, we never found Rick! And I’d love to play more with it! Please update with more chapters or just a bonus chapter.
