### 2/5 — What a shame

*2024-02-27, version 1.0.8*

I think I would’ve loved this game but I don’t know if it is my old iPad or what. The game flows beautifully and plays beautifully right up until the second that some clock shows up at the top of the screen. When that happens everything slows down gets sluggish and doesn’t respond in a timely fashion and eventually becomes too frustrating to play. Again which is a shame because I believe I would enjoy the game if that clock didn’t screw everything up. So I’m out. I was fully intending on purchasing the game up until that little booger showed up. I was excited because there was a sale 30% off when I was looking forward to the rest of the game. But alas it cannot be because I can’t put up with that throughout the entire game.

### 3/5 — Fun but stuck

*2022-10-08, version 1.0*

I bought the deluxe version but every time I open it, it asks me again! Now I’m stuck and it just keeps saying nothing to do here! Well  how can I continue??  Uugh

### 3/5 — Crash

*2022-09-25, version 1.0*

Hey guys this game is cute and fun but I paid for Deluxe edition and now it crashes when I beat the map tokens puzzle to get past the gate every time

### 1/5 — Deluxe Version not available

*2022-08-26, version 1.0*

Can’t purchase the deluxe version as it’s in Euros not £. Please fix

### 1/5 — Won’t restore purchase of deluxe upgrade

*2022-08-07, version 1.0*

Paid for the deluxe upgrade but when I open the game another day, it say upgrade to deluxe again, I push the button for already purchased and nothing happens. Please fix this so I can actually enjoy what I paid for

### 3/5 — Why take away the good?

*2022-07-22, version 1.0*

I’ve played HOAG on/off for years. I’m a big fan of interactive aspects(aka “Gimmicks”). The good games used to have a kit to heal/mix or the Beastiary etc was way more interactive. Now it’s all gone & I feel like I’m just going through the motions as with every one of their games now. Head on over to Friendly Fox & see how it’s done. You were a quality developer at one time. Also the so called “Deluxe Version”??? Glad I didn’t pay for it, it ended up only giving you 1 extra topic to explore(like all the ones that had a “free” option in the trial)I’m glad your exploring change. This one flowed better than most but bring back the gimmicks please

### 1/5 — Can’t rate it…

*2022-07-19, version 1.0*

It crashes as soon as it loads the splash page. *sigh*

Update: I got an email saying the developer wants me to contact them, but all I get is a bot that apparently can’t comprehend my request for a real, live person.  The game loads, and you can play it, but there is no strategy guide.  I keep re-“purchasing” the upgrade levels, but it doesn’t take, and I only have the standard game, despite paying for both upgrades. You can do better, Domini.

### 2/5 — Deluxe Version

*2022-07-18, version 1.0*

Same issue as others . Payment made but does not unlock

### 1/5 — worst game ever

*2022-07-17, version 1.0*

will not purchase any of this developer’s games again.

### 2/5 — Was really enjoying until…

*2022-07-04, version 1.0*

I opened up the game to continue and it will not let me progress or do an available puzzle.  (The piano puzzle). I checked every scene and even tried the hint each time and no actions are available.  I also paid for the full unlock AND the extra premium and now it’s not registered.  Great game until I hit this point

### 1/5 — Game crashes

*2022-07-02, version 1.0*

After purchasing the game, I decided to upgrade to deluxe.  Although this only cost £0.89, the game will not let me load the deluxe version.  Also, after I have completed the map to navigate the forest, the game totally crashes and closes.  Very disappointing on both fronts.

### 1/5 — Unplayable

*2022-07-02, version 1.0*

This game is not playable

### 1/5 — Update

*2022-07-01, version 1.0*

I am now able to actually play but I cannot upgrade to deluxe after I purchased it and restored it several times

### 1/5 — Kept crashing

*2022-06-26, version 1.0*

Assume the deluxe version doesn’t crash! The standard one certainly does

### 1/5 — Mini Games have glitch

*2023-12-22, version 1.0.7*

I was solving the games but the game did not accept my solotiuon.
When I pressed the skip button, the game applied my solution.

Some kind of bug in the game

### 1/5 — Background door knocking and creaking?

*2023-03-17, version 1.0.5*

I could not concentrate of the game. When I was in a scene to find objects, all I kept hearing was what sounded like someone knocking on a door, a creaking door, and low voices. I assure you that I was not hallucinating. This is not the first game where this has happened.

### 1/5 — Expulsion

*2023-02-12, version 1.0.3*

Started playing the game, but it goes back to the home page. Deleted and reloaded, but still the same problem. Please fix and update.

### 1/5 — Royal Legends” Expulsion..

*2022-12-30, version 1.0.2*

I’m having difficulty in playing this game, It won’t let me carry on playing and it always takes me back to the front..  Sorry 😞 but I can’t give you the stars.. I Think you need to re- fix it..

### 1/5 — Faulty

*2022-12-03, version 1.0.2*

Another game full of faults.

### 1/5 — Not fun to play

*2022-10-20, version 1.0.1*

I paid for deluxe, but it keeps asking if I want the deluxe version.

### 1/5 — DISAPPOINTED

*2022-10-19, version 1.0.1*

Profile got deleted, beginning of game look odd, tried deleting and reinstalling but didn’t work….WASTE OF MONEY!!!!

### 1/5 — Crashes in the king’s chamber

*2022-10-17, version 1.0.1*

I am in the beginning of the game pretty much, where the nursemaid is tending to the king and I have to open the case to try to get the items to examine the King. I have the cane and have just finished the HOP next to the bed and when I try to click on anything else in the room, the game crashes. Super frustrating, as I love these Domini Games.

### 1/5 — Glitches Galore

*2022-09-30, version 1.0*

SO many things wrong with this game, I can’t believe it’s still out there. As others have stated, I purchased the deluxe version though it doesn’t show it. When given an option to do the extra “deluxe” task, I had to click on the “upgrade to deluxe” button, then it said I had already purchased so I wasn’t charged. However after I completed the task the upgrade to deluxe button came back. There are numerous other glitches like items coming from nowhere and disappearing. The worst is that now I have played the map minigame three times and as soon as I complete it, it boots me off the game. I restart and do it again - same thing happens.  I cannot finish the game! So frustrating!

### 1/5 — Where’s the guide - UPDATE

*2022-09-22, version 1.0*

I purchased this game and also purchased the deluxe part. Unlike the screenshots on the App Store showing the question mark, which for other games is the guide, this game it’s missing. I removed and re downloaded the game. Clicked on already purchased. Still the question mark for the guide is missing. Came out and went back in and now part of the front screen shows update to deluxe - I have already purchased that - so clicked on it and see that I needed to click already purchased. Only it won’t allow me to click on that. Why, I have purchased it so what is going on. So far very poor. If I get stuck or find part of a game not playing quite right, being able to double check with the guide is necessary. So how am I able to do that now. Seems there is still a glitch on this game that needs sorting out.
UPDATE - don’t waste your money this is the worst game that I have encountered with DG. The mini games hardly work, I complete and yet it won’t move on, so I had to use the skip button only to use that I was right in the beginning. Also having paid for the deluxe game that shows I have to repurchase it, then it showed twice the questions to play the extra part, but it wouldn’t. Waste of money all round. Not going to replay just to take screenshots to send to the support, for what, they hardly ever respond anyway.

### 5/5 — Find hidden objects.

*2024-02-13, version 1.0.7*

I am stuck on sages. I don’t know what it means and I can’t go any further. HELP ,,!!

### 5/5 — Another Great Game!

*2022-08-01, version 1.0*

Enjoying very much!

### 5/5 — Next one

*2022-06-24, version 1.0*

### 5/5 — The game is fine

*2022-06-23, version 1.0*

6/23/22 Get the stuff from the side flap of the doctor bag in the first scene and you can move forward

### 5/5 — Domini gets better and better!

*2022-06-16, version 1.0*

I was able to play the game just fine. I absolutely love Domini games. I own every single game they ever made. You keep getting better and better and I get so excited every time you release a game on IOS.  I have one request though. Can you make the achievement notifications optional?  I find them annoying and they interrupt my game play experience because they are often covering things I want to look at and there’s ssssssoooooo many of them and they get bigger and bigger on the screen over time (they used to be small in the upper left hand corner, but now they take up a quarter of the screen).  If you did this your games would be perfect.

### 5/5 — 👍😀

*2022-06-13, version 1.0*

Really enjoyed this game the puzzles were a bit different and hos are bit harder which was great . Liked the option of the deluxe gameplay to.

### 4/5 — Frustrated

*2026-03-31, version 1.1.0*

I have paid for the extended version on the game and now it is stuck and will not let me move on. There needs to be some bug fixes because this is unacceptable, especially if I I have paid for it.

### 4/5 — Glitches

*2022-08-06, version 1.0*

I was enjoying the game but after paying and being charged again for more advanced it completely turns off after the map pozzel is done !

### 4/5 — Fun but some flaws

*2022-08-02, version 1.0*

The game was very fun. However, I didn’t get to finish it. I bought the deluxe yet it never let me access it. I keep contacting support but so far nothing has been done, that’s the only bummer. Hope they fix that and can’t wait for more games.

### 4/5 — Update

*2022-07-28, version 1.0*

In addition, please do not get asking me to send you proof of where this happens, because as a customer, we trust in you to give us a game we can play to the end, and go back to pick up items we may have missed, so, as developers, you should trust your customers!

These games keep me going as I am disabled an housebound!

I have deleted this game, and may very well think twice about purchasing any further games from your company
