### 5/5 — Lot of fun

*2022-07-16, version 1.0.0*

This was a lot of fun and very captivating to play

### 3/5 — Disappointing

*2022-04-14, version 1.0.0*

My critic is no good but I wish developper will realize that they can make a better game next time.  The first chapter was great, enough to ignore few small bugs and buy the game (selecting an object is sometimes difficult; the back button, the one at the right of the bar in the bottom, is not always working properly, the map is not showing always the right info, etc.). But I regret that buy: the puzzles are going lesser and lesser interesting and very predictive with the progression of the game like if the programmer got short of ideas of budget. By the way, I wish programmer will stop using so much non sense ideas like using any item from one object to use with another one that is way too big or small in comparison of the item. Also, using stupid solution like cutting a branch to get a small pendant or worse put gaz on wood and using a silex to start a fire (hoping no children will never try that) kill the sense of suspens that the first chapter has been created.

### 5/5 — Awesome game

*2019-10-26, version 1.0.0*

Graphics great, interesting storyline. Good game length and loads of hops.

### 5/5 — Game is top flight

*2018-02-11, version 1.0.0*

Loved it, great game play and expectations done in unique ways. Good puzzles and superior graphics though a bit short.

### 4/5 — Volksy48

*2018-01-31, version 1.0.0*

I enjoyed this game. The storyline was good, it flowed well, maps worked well, graphics were terrific. It was a reasonable length. I had a little difficulty picking things up at times but not annoyingly so. Well done.

### 2/5 — Short game

*2018-01-30, version 1.0.0*

Really quick to play, too few puzzles, don’t feel it’s worth the money I spent.

### 1/5 — Terrible Game

*2018-01-29, version 1.0.0*

I am a fan of most Big Fish games; however, I am extremely disappointed in this one.  Very poor quality design & full of glitches.

### 1/5 — Unable to unlock

*2018-01-29, version 1.0.0*

Unable to unlock!!!

### 5/5 — Awesome storyline

*2018-01-04, version 1.0.0*

This was a really fun game, no having to pay extra for more time or jewels or pointless stuff like that! Great puzzles and mini games and seek and find! I love that it's an actual mystery game and that you actually are solving a mystery, without monsters and demons and all the stupid evil junk. It seemed like it was fairly short and I got through fairly quickly, but I still highly enjoyed this game and would definitely recommend to anyone who likes real mystery solving games! Please make more games like this!

### 2/5 — Poor

*2017-06-05, version 1.0.0*

Not worth the money. Poor graphics, poor movement hints and I really dislike being slowed down in the HOP's by the system. Overall it's slow, not interesting.
