After you jump through all those hoops?? ### 4/5 — Robot game *2022-12-06, version 2.1* Awesome game ### 4/5 — Hopefully Part 2! *2022-12-04, version 2.1* Admittedly it took a bit to figure out, and had to watch the video thingy. The plot is interesting especially the cliffhanger. Every game like this has its ’tone’ like a book, and once you get a feel for it it’s fun. ### 3/5 — .. *2022-12-02, version 2.1* It’s really fun I like it ### 3/5 — Why ask for review already?! *2022-11-16, version 2.1* I want a walkthru, but begging for reviews a minute in makes it so I can’t give you a truthful review. So until I have actually played it, you get an average 3 star. Hope it’s good. ### 2/5 — Look I don’t get it *2022-09-26, version 2.1* I Searched everywhere but no matter how much I try it doesn’t work like what do you want me to do where is switch 3 anyway I cannot find it terrible game ### 2/5 — Eh *2022-09-08, version 2.1* Just started ### 2/5 — Confusing *2022-07-22, version 2.1* And seems like there is an abundance of pointless moves. Not Machinarium by a long shot. ### 3/5 — Love the game *2022-04-10, version 2.1* This game need some updates and I am ready fo the second half ### 4/5 — Rating *2022-04-04, version 2.1* Confusing in the beginning but overall a pretty good game ### 2/5 — Confusing *2022-04-01, version 2.1* Started confusing and was still confusing I spent a while just clicking my screen. It’s not a bad game I just wish it had more to it. That’s really it tbh ### 4/5 — Interesting *2022-01-15, version 2.1* Like Samorost better but this one is at least interesting ### 3/5 — Confused *2021-11-11, version 2.1* Confusing no instructions. Hopefully a walkthrough will help ### 3/5 — Here because I got tired of banging on the screen *2021-08-26, version 2.1* Walkthrough, anyone? ### 2/5 — Review *2021-08-15, version 2.1* It’s alright... time consuming... very annoying ### 2/5 — Confusing *2021-07-27, version 2.1* Spent time tapping all over the screen. Would be nice if there were more logical connections to items gathered and their application. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not happy so far *2022-04-24, version 2.1* Not really happy with Gavin to go through all this bullsh$@&? just to start play this game. It better rock my wor. I will update review if it it does. 👍 ### 1/5 — It’s a game *2022-04-04, version 2.1* It seems to be a find the hidden picture game with everything blending into everything else. I couldn’t even see me of the items I picked up by pure chance. I have pretty good vision. I can’t proceed because what I need to find is invisible. I’m pretty sure I’ve touched everything. If they want people to play the game they should make it playable. ### 1/5 — What are you doing developers?? *2021-11-28, version 2.1* Other reviews that mention this game making you download other apps and immediately review this “game” are correct. I’m trying to help my son figure this out and I swear this seems like a scam somehow? Is there even a game here? Why can’t I proceed without reviewing in order to get a walkthrough? Ridiculous. ### 1/5 — Needs more work *2021-07-30, version 2.1* Great concept, cool environment. Poor copy of Machinarium. Bugs a plenty and no ‘hints’. ### 1/5 — Not sure of the point…. *2021-07-14, version 2.1* Lots of clicking. Not many clues. ### 1/5 — Escape games are not adventure games *2021-07-07, version 2.1* the game is fair for an escape game but meaningless random clicking isn’t much fun, case one point, the mirror. Am I just going through that exercise just because you wrote it into the game? The point is to escape but why am I escaping? I’m home in my world. The whole thing is empty and pointless. Oh, and if this game stole the use of the name Machinarium as someone else wrote, then it’s despicable. Oh look, it’s now called Robot Escape suddenly! I found a glitch. An item I picked up is called, “Item Name 16,” so they forgot to name it so I don’t know what it is or what to use it for so I’ll have to try and use it everywhere (ouch.) You have to post a review to get the walkthrough but if you close the walkthrough it’s gone. To get the walkthrough back, you then have to share it to Facebook or Twitter which I don’t have so I’ve lost the walkthrough for good. Seems like they’re gatherers more than gamers. ### 1/5 — Frustrating!! *2021-06-22, version 2.1* Handle won’t go on machine by ladder! ### 1/5 — I usually like games like this but... *2021-03-15, version 2.1* Just started playing this game and was forced to write a review before watching the walkthrough (the ONLY possible clue given on how to play this game?). So obnoxious. So here’s your review: 1 star. ### 1/5 — Confusing, clickbait *2021-01-08, version 2.1* Within 2 minutes of opening we had no less that 5 attempts from the app to open up the App Store to download another game by the developer. Also, the app name appears on the home screen as “MachinariumE...” like they are trying to make you think this is somehow in someway related to the awesome game Machinarium, which it clearly isn’t. Scammy business practices aside, the game is confusing to play, and hard to tell what the objective is. Also for some reason all the robots speak broken English with an Eastern European accent. I didn’t really have a problem with that other than my kids were constantly asking me what they were saying. ### 1/5 — So far.....(UPDATED- updated 20 minutes after starting game and finished 🤦🏻‍♀️) *2020-08-24, version 2.1* So far I’m liking it.... it’s very interesting. Let’s hope it don’t get boring. ☺️ Update- so...... it didn’t get boring BUT it did just..... END at the scene that you come to when you are done with all 7 of the rooms and you use the handle, and go down the next shaft and get in the elevator. All in all, it’s a 5minute game and it’s been updated ONLY 4 years agoBY APPLE so that it’s compatible for their updates. SMH to be continued is what you end up with and nothing else......would actually be a great game if it would last a LOT longer and FINISH the story. 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Machinarium *2022-10-28, version 2.1* Fun game very interesting graphics ### 5/5 — Not bad *2022-06-16, version 2.1* Still haven’t figured out what the deal is with the white lights in each room, though ### 5/5 — Great game *2022-05-15, version 2.1* Great game ### 5/5 — Eh *2022-02-09, version 2.1* It’s ok just really slow and doesn’t give much clues on what I’m trying to achieve could use some work ### 5/5 — Amazing *2021-12-27, version 2.1* Amazing work ### 5/5 — Its awesome *2021-09-29, version 2.1* It’s not machinarium but it almost the same I didn’t want to buy it so this is my option hope you like it too. ### 5/5 — Machinarium Escape *2021-08-29, version 2.1* Not sure yet what to do. I am on the very first opening scene. I don’t see myself yet but I have to see the superintendent first, wherever that is. ### 5/5 — Shima Sabzinejad *2021-07-26, version 2.1* Oh my god 🥺🥺 i atill waiting for the next . Why it has not been updated?? I am obssessed with this game 🥺 ### 5/5 — Great game *2017-07-10, version 2.1* Very fun ### 5/5 — Good *2016-06-15, version 2.1* This game is awesome and I love the post-apocalyptic robot theme! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
