Kept freezing. I deleted it and re-downloaded it, raced thru story to the point of purchase and I was prompted to pay again. ### 4/5 — Fun with one blip *2021-06-12, version 1.0.0* I enjoyed this game but it was difficult to select things most times. I would tap on it and it wouldn’t select. I would tap multiple times and it would still not select then it would all of a sudden. Frustrating, but overall a fun game. ### 4/5 — Coulda,shoulda *2019-03-07, version 1.0.0* If some of the games’movements hadn’t been so wonky,this would have been a 5 star game. ### 2/5 — Bad design, I eventually gave up on it *2018-08-09, version 1.0.0* The plot seemed intriguing, but the design was poorly executed. Clues and puzzle pieces didn’t seem logically planned (who locks up a broken saw as if it were valuable?) and you were often left wandering around the map at random, trying to figure out where to go and what you were looking for. The most frustrating part was trying to pick things up! Even when I knew an item was selectable, I usually had to mash my finger on or around it until I managed to select it. Too frustrating to be enjoyable for long and I gave up in disgust. ### 4/5 — Riveting *2015-12-08, version 1.0.0* This game can keep you busy. Great graphics and plot. ### 4/5 — Riddles of Fate: Into a Oblivion by LynxMinx *2015-10-16, version 1.0.0* I had the same issue as Blueflier! (Btw, Blueflier, I hope u r feeling better!) I was about to go up against envy, and got a black screen that says loading and won't do anything. Of course I already bought the game at full price. I am playing on an IPad Air with the most updated IOS. I was really enjoying this game, and now this! BigFish, give us an update! We are sick of glitchy Elephant games. This game was gorgeous and fun and now I can't continue, and others have also had the same issue! I am also full of WRATH because I can't be a SLOTH (or at least a lazy Lynx) and lay around and play this game. I ENVY those of you who were able to finish! How, I don't know! And you are GREEDY for collecting our money and giving us a game that cannot be played! Take some PRIDE in your offerings to us and fix it! Dream Team, for those of you who haven't played, don't! When I finally was able to play I liked it. Beautiful graphics, fabulous cut-scenes, instant loading between locations. Labeled inventory. The hint system was a non-spoiler one. It was lengthy with bonus adventure. And thank you, no RATS except in the HO scenes! I cannot give it 5 stars. It was glitchy. It had a teleport map but you had to run around because it marks objectives on the map and you still have to find the inventory item. I would prefer to only go to a location when there is not just an objective but an actual task! Yes I'm lazy! (Sloth, lol!) The HO scenes were nice and bright, but only word lists. That gets old after a while. There was a nice mix of puzzles though. I also would have liked a journal in addition to the updated objectives. Not a bad game overall, but not my favorite series! I prefer EIPIX to Elephant Games! Much more interesting! ❤️💋❤️💋 from Lynxie ### 4/5 — Obliviously good ! *2015-05-24, version 1.0.0* Bought this as soon as I saw it ! Brilliant storyline and graphics; lots of puzzles to solve and things to do. The only problem I encountered was that sometimes I couldn't pick items up, no matter how I touched the screen, only working after I had touched hint ! A brilliant game nonetheless and I look forward to its sequel ! ### 4/5 — iPad version *2015-05-21, version 1.0.0* I have this on my PC and just tried the iPad version. Not to different and the graphics are nice and clear. ### 4/5 — Good game *2015-05-15, version 1.0.0* Really enjoyed playing this ### 3/5 — Went wrong *2015-05-06, version 1.0.0* Was enjoying this game then purchased, now with previous big fish games I have not had problems. Sadly this time round after purchasing I played switched off then went back in next day. At that point the game froze at loading, after various attempts I felt it wasn't good enough. Thanks to Apple they returned my £4.99 same day. Perhaps big fish you should get your servers sorted in case that is the problem for some of us, and then we will get a good download and none of the problems experienced after payment. ### 5/5 — I didn't expect this! *2015-05-02, version 1.0.0* Great game! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Game has frozen and I’ve already paid for it. Please unfreeze. *2024-08-30, version 1.0.0* Game freezes ### 1/5 — Bugs *2024-01-27, version 1.0.0* Once I paid to unlock the full game it would not load ### 1/5 — Not compatible. *2023-08-08, version 1.0.0* I love these games now as much as I do when I originally bought them. Unfortunately ever time I try to restore my purchase the game crashes. I’d really like to play this game again because it was brilliant! ### 1/5 — Would not load once purchased *2021-12-23, version 1.0.0* I was actually enjoying this right up to purchasing the game. First lost the sound and so closed down game and then turned off iPad. Went back into game and just sat at the word loading but sadly never did and did the same after several attempts. So Buyer Beware, as I see from previous reviews (which I wish I had read) that this is not the first time. Bought in sale but still a waste of money. ### 1/5 — Game not loading after paying *2021-10-04, version 1.0.0* The game is not loading after I paid £5.99 to unlock. Big Fish - fix this or refund the cost! Very disappointing and unacceptable. ### 1/5 — Oblivion *2018-08-07, version 1.0.0* Story line was great only got through the first chapter twice, after I tried to get back on the game it just was stuck on loading never came back on so I deleted game and reinstalled thinking it would work the second time around but it didn’t the same thing happened it just stalled on the loading screen... very disappointed considering just paid for it ### 1/5 — Glitch *2015-08-08, version 1.0.0* Got almost to the end of chapter 4 and after completing a task I should have received a board and nails but only got the nails. The board was still in the scene but I couldn't collect it. I couldn't move forward in the game. It was a shame as I was enjoying the game. ### 1/5 — "Loading" *2015-05-13, version 1.0.0* Game is frozen. Black screen with the word Loading frozen in the middle. Please fix. ### 1/5 — Black "Loading" screen of death! *2015-05-02, version 1.0.0* As soon as I paid full price for this game I received the black loading screen and cannot go further! Please fix... ### 1/5 — Don't waste your money *2015-04-22, version 1.0.0* Looked a good game, graphics etc. Played upto the point of it being free and as enjoyed the puzzles and scenery decided to purchase for £4.99. Let me play the game for about half hour and then when the next day I went to carry on playing it wouldn't load. Managed to get my money back fortunately. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great game! *2023-08-26, version 1.0.0* Wonderful storyline, graphics, music & great mini games to play. Long playing game with a Bonus game. A game you need to play! ### 5/5 — This is fun! *2021-08-05, version 1.0.0* If you have not played this game, I highly recommend you try it! Creative, challenging, great graphics, a really good storyline! I’d like to stay and tell you more about it, but I stopped playing the game to write this review. I have to get back to defeating the seven deadly sins, and saving the town! I’m bouncing out!! ### 5/5 — Wonderful game! *2020-06-12, version 1.0.0* Very creative! Love the characters, and the seven deadly sins theme. This is an older game, from back when Elephant was really good. Newer games from them are just repeatedly finding an amulet, inserting the amulet to..guess what?.. find another amulet🙄🤦‍♀️. I believe the new ones were rushed by big fish, but I digress. Even though the graphics are 5 years old, they are still good. Only 24 scenes in the main game, but it was still a good length. The mini games were great! I especially love the “embroidery” one, which is a pic-a-pix (also called, griddler , logic art, nonogram, etc.) The bonus game is 13 scenes long, and you prevent 6 sins from causing the havoc in Riddleton, (why not 7? Idk). I did have to sometimes tap on an item a few times in the hos to get it to register, and when trying to pick up the first item in inventory you often got the task button instead, which is annoying. The hos are all list/interactive. But it is 5 years old, and that just didn’t bother me because the game is more about the story, creativity, and mini games. Real rating of 4.5 bumped up to 5 because it is just a delight to play! ### 5/5 — Good game *2019-11-26, version 1.0.0* I thoroughly enjoyed this game. Puzzles were good only problem was sometimes I couldn’t pick up objects no matter how I tried ### 5/5 — Into oblivion *2019-01-20, version 1.0.0* Good game, really enjoyed it ### 5/5 — S. Hardy *2016-10-07, version 1.0.0* Fun game!! ### 5/5 — Riddles of fate: into oblivion *2016-05-22, version 1.0.0* Great story line! There need be a few tweaks to fix hidden object problems when selecting items - on each screen there were items that you had to back out of the hop altogether, then try the hop again to retrieve. But overall really good story line. ### 5/5 — Excellent Game! *2016-01-17, version 1.0.0* Great scenes and graphics, thoroughly enjoyed it. Well worth it😊 ### 5/5 — Oblivion *2015-10-23, version 1.0.0* This is a long game so well worth the money. Graphics are good and you can teleport to locations where there is something to do. Not too many hidden object screens but lots of puzzles some more difficult than others. Storyline is interesting. ### 5/5 — Solid game *2015-05-12, version 1.0.0* Pretty solid game, very enjoyable. No glitches at all. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
