### 3/5 — bugs v5.01

*2026-05-09, version 5.01*

this update erased my puzzles progress. now it starts at level 1, I finish that one, the next one is still level 1. 2020 ipad 7, latest ios compatible. Please fix this otherwise enjoyable game. Thanks!

### 3/5 — Game ok

*2026-03-17, version 5.01*

Wish stars and coins were easier to obtain.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2026-02-22, version 5.01*

Been playing this  game and it’s really helping with my concentration problems

### 2/5 — So boring

*2026-01-28, version 5.01*

This game is awful compared to other games by this developer. I really dislike how the puzzles are not at all related to the story and you only do the puzzles to spend on stars to complete story actions. There is no logic or deduction involved in solving the mysteries or interacting with the environment of the story, it’s just a story with irrelevant repetitive puzzles that you need to complete to watch it play out. Disappointing but still I’ll look forward to the next games that Haiku releases

### 5/5 — Puzzle town mysteries

*2025-12-27, version 5.01*

Really fun game more cases plz and I think Lana and Barry should date

### 5/5 — Always impressed by Haiku

*2025-12-19, version 5.01*

This is an interesting way to divide up the puzzled vs. The mystery and story. You spend stars for clues and you gain stars by doing puzzles so you can stock up on stars and play through an entire chapter, or you can do each at an incremental rate. 

With their other games, sometimes you get stuck on one puzzle which halts the game. Still fun, but sometimes it’s take a couple days so the story is a little detached. I’m impatiently waiting for chapter 11 to release 😆

### 5/5 — Puzzle geek

*2025-11-28, version 5.00*

Pretty good puzzles to get stars. Enjoy the storyline

### 2/5 — Been playing Haiku Games for years

*2025-10-07, version 5.00*

This new style is not Haiku that we all know and love. Please reconsider this change. Its a lazy style and has no character. By the time we finish one game we have to wait for the plays to add back up and by then some of us already forgot the storyline. Its not enjoyable. I miss the feeling of going on an adventure in the old Haiku Games. It was a beautiful journey that took skill and determination. I felt accomplished after completing the different puzzles and loved reading the complex mysteries. Please we beg you.

### 5/5 — Super

*2025-10-05, version 5.00*

J’aime beaucoup le concept des mini jeu. 
Ça reste les mêmes concepteurs que haïku games qui sont juste très très bon

### 3/5 — Problem with purchase

*2025-10-03, version 5.00*

I’ve tried to buy the gold pass and every time it comes up with an error code 11.1022  It’s been like this for 2 weeks.
Really frustrating, now I’m at the end and only have 8 minutes to get all unused bonuses!
