### 3/5 — Где русский язык

*2021-11-21*

Игра классная , но добавьте пожалуйста русский язык

### 1/5 — Errors

*2021-08-13, version 4.0.0*

This game has a serious fault. Many of the objects needed to be ‘ticked’ appear off the main page. Frustrating and rubbish game.

### 4/5 — Works on iPhone just fine.

*2021-05-17, version 4.0.0*

Good, simple hidden object game. Use zoom function to see better. I was able to see everything on the screen-they must have fixed it. Those bad reviews are from several years ago. It is only $2.99 and is a decent little game. You are a detective helping the police solve crimes.  I recommend to hidden object lovers.

### 5/5 — Fun

*2020-04-24, version 4.0.0*

I really enjoyed this game. It was better made than the other games I have played by this company. It was especially fun because the finding object games were quite hard, however, some of the pictures weren’t very clear (shadows, extremely small objects etc.). It had an interesting storyline and charming characters. It would definitely be worth the money, and if you don’t want to spend any money, it’s still a nice game to play for the first part. All in all, great game.

### 5/5 — Contente !!

*2020-02-28*

Ce jeu est bien, simple, bon pour quelqu’un qui n’a pas envie de bloquer des heures sur un jeu pour y arriver.
Étant une adulte je trouve qu’il s’adapte pour les ados aussi.
Ayant payé pour avoir le jeu complet, (vraiment pas cher) dommage qu’il ne soit pas plus long ....😩
Sinon impec.

### 1/5 — Rip off!!!!!!!

*2017-08-06, version 4.0.0*

Purchased but will not let me go on in the game. Tells me I need to purchase to go forward but already purchased when I downloaded. Beware do not buy!!!!!!!!!!!!!

### 1/5 — Could be good IF fixed; currently a total RIPOFF!

*2017-04-14, version 4.0.0*

DO NOT BUT THIS GAME FOR iPAD!   THE DEVELOPERS CHARGE FOR AN NONWORKING GAME!!!  Because the game doesn't fit the iPad screen correctly (many hunt and find items are outside of available touchpad space per clues); therefore, unable to locate items even with clues or to progress!
TOTAL RIP OFF!!!!
BAD iTunes BAD developer!!!

### 2/5 — Cool Game But Poorly Executed

*2017-02-05, version 4.0.0*

It's an awesome concept, but the game is very buggy. It'll ask you to click on something and when you do, nothing will happen, which will keep you from advancing. When that doesn't happen however, the game is alright. Makes you think!

### 1/5 — Needs work.

*2017-01-16, version 4.0.0*

Terrible. First level part of the room wouldn't show up on the screen so I couldn't finish the level. Needs some work.

### 3/5 — 구매 목록 삭제 부탁드립니다

*2016-03-29, version 4.0.0*

구매 목록 삭제 부탁드립니다
