### 2/5 — Old game needs screen adjustment

*2022-10-24, version 1.0.4*

It doesnt fit the display of 12mini so cant even play it, its off centre

### 4/5 — Good game

*2020-06-27*

Enjoyed it

### 3/5 — Good but glitchy

*2020-05-29*

Overall good game, main and bonus chapters both good lengths and held my interest. I liked the double click to move/interact feature. No way to get bonus items after completing the game other than replaying, and does have an outdated look with some glitches and crashes.

### 2/5 — Огорчили

*2018-02-23, version 1.0.4*

Купил игру за деньги 30 мая 2014 года, не могу восстановить доступ, верните покупку.

### 5/5 — Punished 5 stars

*2016-10-25, version 1.0.4*

Loved this game, & the bonus game & mini games, gutted I've completed it all 😩

### 4/5 — Ronnie

*2016-10-18, version 1.0.4*

Thought it was very good

### 4/5 — 英語版(^^;;

*2016-10-03*

何故か英語版ですが、勉強と思って頑張ってます。謎解きが楽しい！ヒントが親切。
オフラインで出来るのがありがたい。

### 5/5 — 面白かった❗️

*2016-09-11*

すごく楽しめました❣️

### 1/5 — Семь муз

*2016-09-05, version 1.0.4*

Игра была куплена на русском языке, с не на английском. Исправьте ошибку!!!!!!!

### 5/5 — Really great game

*2016-07-17*

I really liked this one. Not very challenging but not boring at all. There were only a handful or so of times you have to travel back and forth across many scenes, but it has the jump map feature. Plus you can turn on or off the active areas feature from the Options, Difficultly button. You can also customize the game's difficulty, which I always love. Inventory bar is lockable and easy to scroll through. HOPS were all find from list type but they each, at least, had a few interactive items. Mini games were fairly easy but some did require a little thought and/or effort. Graphics, as usual, were awesome. There were lots of cutscenes that aren't too long, but you can skip them without losing an achievement. There are Collectables, teapots and fingerprints, but they aren't in every scene and you won't know if you've missed one until you find the last one. I forgot to use the magnifier and missed all the prints. The Collector's Edition gives you a decently lengthy bonus game, some concept art, wallpapers, videos, a microscope feature that I couldn't use since I didn't find the prints, and some of the mini games to replay. Can't replay the HOPS though. The game's story was decently good, though the ending was quite abrupt, especially from the bonus game.
Overall I really liked this game.

### 1/5 — Punished Talents:Seven Muses

*2025-01-27*

I tried to play it for free then I purchased it and it still won’t work. I love playing these games and have been a member for years!! I just want my money back!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work — Frozen

*2024-08-17*

I tried using the free version but it was frozen and therefore would not work, so I purchased thinking $2.99 isn’t that much. Maybe the paid version would actually work. It did not. I tried to report issue to developer but I am always routed to a page that says, Oops!” Page I’m looking for isn’t there. Can’t get developer. I tried to cancel but because the game shows as “pending “ in my account, I can’t actually cancel until it goes through. That may be the issue … purchase is frozen in “pending.” I usually really like the BigFish games. So disappointed with this purchase/attempted purchase. I did remove and reinstalled. Did not change anything. Thankfully it’s only $2.99 + tax. 😞

### 1/5 — Game is not formatted to fit iPhone screens

*2023-02-26, version 1.0.4*

I purchased this app and it will not fit in the screen. Can this be fixed?

### 1/5 — Paid for it and Cannot Play it.  Picture is all messed up

*2023-01-27*

Paid for this and I cannot play it.  The picture is all messed up.  It does not fit the screen properly.  Clicking on Play does nothing.  It keeps trying to get me to buy it again.  Waste of $2.99

### 1/5 — Rip off

*2022-07-02, version 1.0.4*

So devs thanks for a game that is soooo small it doesn’t fit an iPad screen, lazy! Want your money but….

### 1/5 — Pas jouer car il est en anglais

*2022-04-10, version 1.0.4*

Il est indiqué que ce jeu est en français et il est en anglais. Donc je suis déçu

### 1/5 — No game

*2022-01-27, version 1.0.4*

Just purchased this game by accident and it doesn’t play, how do I get my money back?

### 1/5 — Can’t get past the title page

*2020-11-11, version 1.0.4*

Can’t even get past the title page because it doesn’t seem to fit on my iPhone screen!! Absolute rubbish

### 1/5 — UPDATE ON IOS MESSED IT UP!

*2019-10-10*

I was in the middle of playing this game, thank god I had yet to pay for it because my iPhone 8plus updated last week and now it’s all messed up!  I can’t even get into the game because the main menu page isn’t centered and I can’t even get to the play option!!  I tried restarting my phone and when that didn’t work I uninstalled and then reinstalled... STILL DIDN’T WORK!!  I am so frustrated because I was really into the game. PLEASE FIX IT SO I CAN PURCHASE AND PLAY THE DARN GAME!!!
