### 2/5 — Frustration

*2026-05-10, version 1.0.2*

I bought this game years ago and have just downloaded it again to play. It won’t let me restore my purchase and nor will it let me buy the game again. Frustrating! The trial part has been so good but I can’t continue with the game

### 2/5 — Frustrating and annoying

*2018-07-04, version 1.0.2*

Game is glitchy. You have to try over and over and over again to pick things up. Not intuitive at all had to refer to the strategy guide to confirm what I was doing was correct and I still had to keep trying to pick things up before it would eventually let me. 

Got to the point now that I Can’t proceed because the game refuses to allow me to hang up the potion recipe even though I’ve tried over and over and over again :/. I’ve collected all the ingredients and gone as far as I can but I can’t proceed further.

UPDATE: thought I’d give it one last try and it finally allowed me to hang up the recipe and complete the potion but I shouldn’t have to tap over and over and over again to get something to work.

The game could be really great but it’s very frustrating and disappointing - if only they’d made sure it wasn’t buggy :(

### 4/5 — LOVED the storyline 😍

*2016-07-09, version 1.0.2*

One of the best storyline's in a long time, kept my interest right to the end (which doesn't happen often!).  It's a long game with gorgeous graphics, a great atmosphere and appropriate music. Nice variety of puzzles of varying difficulty and not too many HOS.
Knocked off one star as, although you can fast travel via the map it doesn't show where you need to be so had to use hint button a lot. Also screen wasn't very responsive sometimes.
Apart from the aforementioned a brilliant game and bonus chapter even better. 👏🌞

### 2/5 — WAS a good game, but ....

*2016-05-23, version 1.0.2*

The first time I tried this game, I liked it very much.  This time, not.  I had to tap on the wooden wedge over a dozen times before I could get it. I even used the hint to see if I was doing something wrong.   

I hate playing games with glitches.  It's off my "to buy" list until it's fixed.

### 2/5 — Gran

*2015-03-23, version 1.0.1*

Was half way through this game and it now keeps booting me out.I cannot complete the game. Am really frustrated, I can expect this the odd time, but the last 4games I bought all had some of the same problems. Maybe fix or make games for free,!

### 2/5 — Wild hunt

*2015-03-20, version 1.0.1*

I was really enjoying this game got to the point where you have to hang the antidote recipe near the cauldron and there is no place to hang it ! I've been stuck on this now for an hour, there is nowhere it will hang!
There must be something wrong with it, such a shame, I really liked it.

### 1/5 — So Disappointed

*2015-02-25, version 1.0.1*

I bought this when it was released and have continuously had problems with it.  I'd start the game, play for a while and then lose my progress.  I finally was almost done when I lost all progress again.  I'm deleting and giving up.  There are too many I can play that aren't buggy.

### 1/5 — Great game

*2015-02-21, version 1.0.1*

Great story line, good length, very good game (and Death is kinda a hottie but he's a one woman man.) ☺️ 2 thumbs way up👍👍👍👍👍👍

Addendum..initially gave this game 5 stars but now I've dropped it to 1 star. Every time I close out of the game now it resets. EVERY. FREAKING. TIME. I'm beyond annoyed right now. Ugh, FIX THIS!!!!!

### 2/5 — iPad bug

*2015-02-10*

If playing on an iPad you can not open any other app, check emails, etc or you will lose all progress. When you go back to game you have to begin all over again. On my third try have updated so fingers crossed. Fourth game with bug this year.

### 1/5 — Don't buy

*2015-02-09, version 1.0.1*

I loved the game, then I paid for it. Finished the game and got halfway through the bonus game...now I open it and all my progress is gone and have to start over, which I'm NOT doing. Goodbye Big Fish games. You'll get no more money from me.

### 4/5 — A lot of fun

*2015-02-08, version 1.0.1*

A bit of moving but I liked the graphics and difficulty level.

### 1/5 — Glitches Galore

*2023-01-16, version 1.0.2*

I was enjoying the game but had a hard time picking up the wooden wedge but eventually was able to get it but I cannot get the piano pedal from the armor. 🙁

### 1/5 — Riddles of fate, Wild Hunt

*2020-10-26, version 1.0.2*

Only just started to play the first hidden object scene and can’t pick up the pipe!! So that’s that then? Don’t know what to do now any suggestions?  Susie

### 1/5 — En français

*2019-04-19, version 1.0.2*

J’ai payé trop vite, j’ai reçu la version en anglais...

I had pay to fast and i received tha english version,  even if all the annoncement was in french.....mad...
The other one was took at same time and was ok

### 1/5 — Riddles of fate

*2019-04-03, version 1.0.2*

Lots of glitches. On first screen impossible to remove wedge from bridge mechanism

### 1/5 — Buggy

*2019-02-22, version 1.0.2*

Can’t get past the part with the wooden wedge.

### 1/5 — can’t pick up stuff

*2017-12-25, version 1.0.2*

game is stuck because i can’t pick up necessary items to proceed. frustrating and self-defeating.

### 1/5 — Terrible game!

*2017-02-20, version 1.0.2*

I had to practically beat my iPad to select objects.  I tried other hidden object games to make sure it wasn't my iPad, it wasn't.

### 1/5 — You will own this game "forever?"

*2015-05-26, version 1.0.2*

Well, the forever is just until you try to replay it again.

I have so far lost three "forever" games from Big Fish. I agree that this is intolerable and needs to be fixed, or else the statement about owning the games "forever" changed. I like to replay games and am highly disappointed when something I paid for just disappears.

### 1/5 — Still has problems.

*2015-05-24, version 1.0.2*

Fixed the lost progress, but now I cannot get one of the signs from the gnome next to the crossbow. That, and I have had to beat my iPad Air 2 half to death to get a lot of the HO items. There have been too many glitches in all of these games, by all developers lately. I will not buy any more.

### 1/5 — Junk!

*2015-04-09, version 1.0.1*

This is a do not buy game!Finally made it thru after several restarts.Started the bonus game,quit and went back later.Says I have to finish the main game!WTH?Which I already did.What junk!And BF doesn't do a single thing about this.They've got your $$..Save yours!

### 5/5 — Big fish

*2024-02-08, version 1.0.2*

I love it and I am watching you all of you

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2023-06-25, version 1.0.2*

This is my third time playing this game, had no technical difficulties as others have stated. Loved the graphics, (especially the "Death" character). The Four Horseman storyline got me hooked soooo, I didn't relegated it to the "Cloud" and it's a good thing I did because I too have been having problems with Games that one is supposed to "own for life" once the game is purchased but, a text comes back stating, "no purchase has been found",......

### 5/5 — Riddles of fate

*2021-07-19, version 1.0.2*

Brilliant, money well spent. Lasted for ever and I was glued to it.

### 5/5 — Riddles of Fate Wild Hunt

*2020-02-28, version 1.0.2*

Congratulations Big Fish, at last an excellent game for iPad gaming, this game reminds me of when I first joined the Big Fish club twelve years ago. I played so many of this type of game on desktop and laptop I had almost given up on ever playing such a well executed, interesting and engrossing storyline on iPad. Graphics are of the same quality of a console game, it’s not the usual run of the mill HOG (save the castle/town/family from evil and find the artefact). So having paid £6.99 I feel that price is justified, but I have to say that some of the previous games I’ve bought for that price haven’t all been worth that amount, it’s a shame that games aren’t priced like console games, depending on the length, quality, and storyline. Well done though, more like this one please.

### 5/5 — Fantastic game

*2019-11-06, version 1.0.2*

Such long gameplay and great bonus as well. Puzzles were challenging. Only gripe is sometimes it was hard to pick things up.

### 5/5 — Wild hunt

*2018-07-29, version 1.0.2*

One of my favourites, loved it more please, still my favourite, love it

### 5/5 — So far it's been good operating😊

*2015-07-07, version 1.0.1*

So far this game has had no issues for me..But the game is spectacular, beautiful, and went way beyond what I had expectations. The scenes are wonderfully done, exceptional detail and graphics, considering I have played hundreds of BigFish games on PC and iPad, this one is in the top ten for iPad games for me👍👍❤️❤️ but I have to add the after getting halfway through the bonus game I got totally reset on the whole game. Very disappointing so I think I am going to start buying the games on cd and get away from online games..sad but beneficial to me😀

### 5/5 — Soweto

*2015-04-29, version 1.0.2*

Excellant jeu mais je suis incapable de prendre le papier dans le nain celui accoter de l'arbalète

### 5/5 — Patn

*2015-02-24, version 1.0.1*

Great game with good graphics, excellent map and hints. Nice long gameplay and bonus, and the secret room was a second bonus. Generally good value.

### 5/5 — Really enjoyable game

*2015-01-19, version 1.0.1*

I had none of the issues with the game crashing and thought this was a really good game. I like to play with no hints at all and enjoyed the challenge of picking things up and then figuring out what to do with them. It reminded me of some of my favourite games of the past like the monkey island series and broken sword. The storyline was interesting and the game was just difficult enough without becoming too frustrating. One of my favourite games of recent months and I'm looking forward to the sequel.
