### 4/5 — 4 starts

*2025-06-19, version 5.1*

I like the game but when I’m on episode 1 it glitches my phone and I have to restart when Barry is talking about his sister

### 4/5 — Buy episodes

*2025-06-16, version 5.1*

Really love the game expect for the whole episode buying thing. I wouldn’t mind getting an ad at the end for episodes instead of having to stack them up. At least make it so we can watch add back to back for gems rather than having to wait a couple minutes. Love the game tho but the gem thing is kind of annoying.

### 2/5 — Glitch

*2026-01-05, version 5.3*

I saw other people wrote this as an issue as well but no one responded. When u reach a certain point in Episode 1 the game  states “Hey man” and you can’t go further. Please resolve this issue.

### 2/5 — Potential… but long and exhausting

*2025-11-12, version 5.3*

I love the idea of cracking codes but having to endure multiple boring conversations before getting the next code… it’s too much. Too boring. I wanted to really like this game but there’s far too much clicking of limited speech, and nowhere near enough puzzles. Speaking of, they are far too quick to solve. 
Not worth it.

### 3/5 — it’s okay

*2026-03-03, version 6.0*

i love the game and the story line however the in game purchases for gems i purchased the tiny pack and didn’t recive anything

### 3/5 — Crashes

*2025-12-30, version 5.3*

was having fun playing it but when i got to the prioplot message in episode 1 it crashes everytime it wont let me say anything and the message only says “hey man” and ive watched gameplays and this hasn’t happened to anyone else.

### 3/5 — Good game but

*2025-06-17*

It’s a great game, amazing visuals, fun puzzles but I wish we got gems daily or something because some of use don’t have the money to buy gems. And sitting here having to watch as after ad gets annoying. Plus the ad cool down and having to wait makes it worse

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review! We understand it can be challenging to earn gems sometimes. Besides ads, the game also offers daily rewards and gems for social actions like following us on Instagram or inviting a friend. If you don’t see these options, try updating the game — they should be available in the latest version!

### 4/5 — Slight bug in game

*2026-07-26, version 6.0*

Loving the game but there is a bug which may need fixing. Every so often, the game will all of a sudden switch off and this doesn’t happen with any of my other apps so that’s a little annoying.

### 4/5 — Crash

*2025-12-31, version 5.3*

I love this game but in episode 1 when I got the ‘hey man’ text from prioplot I wasn’t able to continue, no options no other tasks to do it’s like the game completely crashed.

### 4/5 — A Bug that needs to be fixed

*2025-12-30, version 5.3*

Hello developers, there seems to be a problem on the PRIOPLOT message on Episode 1…
Anyways the game is really good but I am looking forward for that bug to be fixed
A kind response from you would be highly appreciated.

### 4/5 — Diamonds

*2025-11-13, version 5.3*

I love the game, but I bought the 11.99 pack of diamonds, and they’re not showing up :(. I closed and entered the game and even restarted my iPad. The purchase went through, it shows up in my bank app

### 4/5 — Good game

*2025-11-06, version 5.3*

Although I’m dying for episode 10, how much longer till it’s out?

### 5/5 — Love!!

*2026-06-25, version 6.0*

Love the story and how the puzzles fit right in! Love the gems bc watching an ad isn’t that bad and they don’t just interrupt things. Love the voices!

### 5/5 — A Hidden Gem for Puzzle & Mystery Lovers!

*2025-08-14, version 5.3*
