Good story, bonus and length of main game, I thought it ended a bit abruptly, but bonus section carried on with an explanation about it all. It was great to have interesting HO sections for a change. The morphing figures were tricky to find some times, but that was probably my fault as I was so engrossed with it all, I forgot to look for them 🙄, but got them in the extras section. Puzzles were varied, and map was essential to help, especially if you leave the game for a while, just to remind yourself where you were. I highly recommend you give it a go, especially at the reduced price. 😻 will definitely play it again..."Yes" got all the morphing figures second time round!! Really enjoyed it all again.👍👍... ### 5/5 — Among the best. *2017-01-28, version 1.0.0* Very good all around. ### 4/5 — Good game *2016-12-10, version 1.0.0* Good mix of puzzles. Good storyline and long game play. ### 5/5 — What an AMAZING game *2016-11-29* I purchased this base on reviews something I wouldn't generally do ...... I am so glad I did finally a unique game ### 4/5 — Prima Spiel *2016-11-25, version 1.0.0* Bietet alles, was man sich wünscht, außer Superminis, die ich so liebe. Trotzdem abwechslungsreiches und gut durchdachtes Spiel. WBS streckenweise etwas zu dunkel. ### 5/5 — Awesomeness *2016-11-24, version 1.0.0* This is the best game I have ever played!!! It was a mixture of creepiness and awesomeness~ totally worth buying! ### 5/5 — Sombre à souhait ! *2016-11-22, version 1.0.0* Très bon jeu. Humour noir, ambiance diabolique.. Belle réussite !!! J'ai passé un très bon moment. ### 4/5 — 面白かった *2016-11-22* 途中落ちて出来なくなったけど、削除して再インストールしたら最後までできました。 でも、記念日ルームでまた落ちて。。。 ボリュームもあり、内容は面白かったです。 ボーナス章はすごく短くて残念でした。 次回も楽しみにしています。 ### 5/5 — Intéressant *2016-11-22, version 1.0.0* Bon jeu,excellent pour passé un petit moment de détente ### 5/5 — Best puzzles in a while! *2016-11-21* The game was kinda scary and the puzzles were original and challenging enough to play again at the end of the game. The length of the game was just right and it had everything we like to see in a Big Fish Game. Morphing, collections, puzzles, neat story line, maps to make getting around faster, interesting characters. A great game overall. Enjoy ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2016-11-20* Graphics, puzzles, storyline all a great game. Words were small for the iPhone but overall a game for everyone. Can't wait for the next game. ### 5/5 — Superb game *2016-11-19, version 1.0.0* As usual phantasmat always the best game ### 5/5 — Great game *2016-11-15, version 1.0.0* This is a great game so far. I am enjoying the graphics and so far the storyline is not to bad either. Keep up the good work ### 4/5 — Tolles Spiel, leider Problem mit Bonusspiel *2016-11-14, version 1.0.0* Spiel ist empfehlenswert. Karte zum Springen, WS leider teilweise zu dunkel, deshalb - ⭐️Sternchen. Nachtrag, Bonusspiel hängt, eine Spielmarke verschwunden, leider kann ich nicht weiterspielen 😩 S. Handbuch Seite 2/8 (T) ### 5/5 — Brill *2016-11-13, version 1.0.0* Excellent game,graphics,storyline and puzzles all brilliant,can't wait for the next one ### 5/5 — A brilliant game *2016-11-12, version 1.0.0* Love this series,and it does not disappoint, great length, interesting hos, great variety of puzzles, only skipped one which was a shame. The map was invaluable and needed, good collectables, not too hard to find, lots of locations, extra's after the game was finished. What a treat and all for £2.99, will definitely play this again, do not miss it. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — It's way too dark *2017-11-22, version 1.0.0* It's downright evil. Sad. Depressing. ### 1/5 — Why are u selling as new??? *2016-11-30* I got this game on 11/2 showed as 1.0.0 then and again today? Same game and when u click on version: says 1.0.0 just like the first one. Some people will pay again, if they don't remember buying it already ( as I did about 4-5 weeks ago. It should be version 1.0.1 while it does say updated, u do not reference the original date released and no warning. I can think of no valid reason this is happening then simply to make more money. If I am wrong, please explain to me. Thanks ### 1/5 — Too dark *2016-11-09, version 1.0.0* I've played Big Fish games for years and enjoyed the majority of them. However, I take issue with this one as it incorporates infanticide into its limp plot. Please, do not use children as hostages or child murders in games. Our society is sick enough as it is. ### 2/5 — It was okay, not worth nearly £5 though *2016-12-11, version 1.0.0* I play a lot of big fish games and unfortunately sometimes there's the odd let down, the story was pretty basic and graphics wasn't as good as some of the other stuff. There are definitely better games by big fish :( ### 2/5 — Not enough mini games! *2016-11-09* The beginning of this story was very interesting, but then it started to drag on. This is one of the longer games I've played, but that only means there is a lot of repetitive tasks. A lot of the HOP's have you repeatedly looking for morphing objects, which I found boring. I like a game that provides more mini games. Disappointed. ### 2/5 — Boring. Predictable. *2016-11-03, version 1.0.0* Just the same old oil can here, jump between rooms to find obvious things. I bought it and stopped halfway through. Eipix games are very pretty but DULL. ### 3/5 — 残酷過ぎて…。 *2018-01-04* ストーリー性もあって良いゲームだと思うんですが、音楽家のキャラ設定が耐えられず、吐気を抑えながら、眉間に皺状態で進めました。なにもここまで残酷にしなくても（ ; ; ）なので、私は星は３つです。 ### 3/5 — Entertaining *2016-11-09* I enjoyed this game. The story line is interesting. The hidden objects scenes and puzzles are varied, but not too difficult. I count that as a plus and a minus. I normally play once on Easy and then on Hard to get all of the Achievements, but there aren't many achievements and they aren't difficult to achieve. Play time was good, not too short if you're a casual player. ### 3/5 — ok *2016-11-07, version 1.0.0* Wie immer, WBS gemischt, Story so lala, Minispiele mäßig. ### 3/5 — Did not enjoy *2016-11-07* The game works perfectly. I did not like the darkness and gore. I have played all the other installments and while they are pretty dark, just not that bad. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Big fish *2024-06-06, version 1.0.0* I love it ### 5/5 — 胸熱展開 *2022-08-26* 2022年現在のiPadで問題なく作動します。 ジャパニーズホラーっぽい演出があってすき。 広く美しい廃墟を夢のように冒険できて楽しかったです ぶっ倒したゴースト達によって、驚きの展開が続いて笑っちゃった。 このメーカーのゲームは高品質でやっぱり大好き！！ ### 5/5 — Good value for money *2020-06-16, version 1.0.0* Absolutely loved game but kept me up at night cos had to see what happened next Well worth the money and will play again ### 5/5 — 星6 *2018-10-09* 今年やった中で1,2位かな？ ホラーが苦手ではないからオススメです。ストーリーもグラフィックも反応も秀逸。シリーズ物ではないのも良いと思います。 ボーナスゲームのボリュームが有りませんが、本編と合わせると有りだと思います。 ### 5/5 — LOVE IT *2018-08-02* I love this game great graphics beatiful atmosphere and i especially love all the videos ( just the right amount of challenge ) and the fact that with the hidden object scenes you can play a match 3 game to help you thx for this game and good goin whoever made this 5 stars from me ### 5/5 — awesome game! *2018-04-20, version 1.0.0* absolutely loved this one! ### 5/5 — Phantasmat: Behind the Mask by LynxMinx *2017-12-03* Thanx for the heads-up, Izzyoc (and Dracyy) and for telling us about upcoming games. I just wanted to let everybody know that I really handed BigFish their heads on a platter, for the whole Puppet Show debacle. I accepted NO EXCUSES and NO GENERALIZED ANSWERS! I threatened them, basically. So Puppet Show is no longer available. For those of you who bought it, ERS is working to fix it and then will bring it out when it is working properly. They tried and brought out another version but it did not fix the problem, and obviously BigFish doesn't seem to be on their case to fix it! So don't worry about it for now! On to Phantasmat. I was concerned about playing it because the subject matter (murdering family and using their remains, such as bones and ashes, in their artistic endeavors) is truly gruesome and macabre! This game is not for children! When I played it, it was such a fantastic game that I felt the same way as both Dracyy and Izzyoc. The storyline held my interest. There are 3 difficulty settings, although there is no option to customize the settings. It was a decently long game and had a bonus adventure. The graphics were eerily gorgeous and very crisp and clear. The cut-scenes were chilling and quite frightening! At each location you collect a rocking horse and at some you collect a morphing object, and there is an indicator which tells you when you have them. The morphing collectibles allow you to access portfolios of the Ward family. There were many locations and loading WAS instantaneous (for a change) between locations! There is an in-game marked (dependent on settings) teleport map to use. You learn the story via notes, and objectives were regularly updated. Inventory is labeled and interactive and there are complex items to assemble. The HO scenes had variation, and if you preferred not to play the scene you could play match-3 instead. I actually enjoyed the puzzles in this game; there were some new ones and they weren't only boring rotational junk! My actual rating is 4.5 stars, and I deducted half a star due to lack of a cohesive journal. The game ran smoothly and I did not encounter any glitches. This game was extremely clever and I enjoyed it immensely. I even bravely fed the mouse and thought that it was kind of cute (EIPIX did not torture me too much!) Of course I will deny EVER saying a mouse was cute, lol! Lynxie sends lots of ❤️💋😘 to the intrepid, fabulous and hard-working Dream Team Elite! Keep up the great work, and please also keep pestering BigFish to get Puppet Show updated. The more we annoy them, the more pressure they will have to do it! I cannot do it alone, although I really have tried! Please Dracyy, KimTwilight, Izzyoc, Opinion, Sunshine Susie, Deana M and Catalina, keep sending nasty emails to BigFish. A lot of people bought the game and it is unplayable! What will it take for ERS to finally update it? ### 5/5 — Traceyanne *2017-10-25, version 1.0.0* Can you get back to me please. Shirazshaw ### 5/5 — Loved it *2017-09-11* I rarely give a game five stars, but this one's one of my top five, for sure. Creepy, challenging, long...loved it. Worth every penny. Note: Someone else called it disturbing, and there are some dark themes here. Just an FYI. ### 5/5 — Awesome game *2017-05-27, version 1.0.0* I hope they make the sequel soon. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
