Seems to have happened to others by reading reviews. ### 3/5 — Secret city 4 *2022-01-29, version 1.0.8* Half way through the game and I’m stuck due to a glitch in the game. I’m unable to use the arrow to pick out the ruby eye on the well. It just won’t accept it. Also unable to put the statue in the stone character scene. Such a shame to get this far and can’t move on. Very frustrating and disappointed. ### 2/5 — Error with the sound (voices) *2021-12-17* What happened with the sound of the voices? Checked the button in settings, even deleted the game and installed again and no change at all. I can hear the rest of the sounds although. **Developer response:** Hello! Thank you for your review.

Wondering if I should bother playing 5&6 ### 3/5 — Secret city 4 *2021-07-17, version 1.0.6* I love the games but the reason for the low stars twice now on this and a couple of other games I’ve purchased rubies at 2.99 for 5 to skip a puzzle as soon as I use the first ruby the game shuts down even though I’ve skipped the puzzle previously I have to use another ruby to skip it AGAIN last time I buy rubies in some of the other secret city games you only have to have 10 coins to skip a difficult puzzle you are not having much luck with GO BACK TO THAT! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Full of bugs for ipad *2023-01-07, version 1.1.0* The game is full of bugs for ipad. Right now cannot pass the qr code step. Dissapointing. ### 1/5 — This Game Should Go Back To Development *2022-10-22* This is one of the least responsive games I’ve played. So many times I tapped on an object or dragged a tool into a scene, only for nothing to happen. Then, out of desperation, I use a Hint. Lo and behold, it’s the exact thing I tried to do twenty times! This is ridiculous, and I hope they decide it’s worth it to fix this issue. **Developer response:** Hello! We appreciate your feedback and will keep working hard on our hidden object games!

I have tried everything. I have watched all the YouTube videos for this and still does not work! I cannot go forward without this “phone” game working. It is so frustrating!! ### 1/5 — Secret City 4 remastered f2p *2022-02-28* It will not start after a few seconds of the video introduction. **Developer response:** Hello!

The main problem is that the card itself is not aligned center to the box. Can’t seem to pass it and I do not want to waste the one ruby I have. Please fix this. ### 1/5 — Having trouble *2021-11-16* In the game where, in the beginning, where the chalk gets stolen. I am having a hard time moving the pictures. Takes a few times at least to move a picture. Sometimes they go in the opposite direction that I want them to go. When the car is on fire and i have to play the game with the green gems on a checker type board. I put one down and touch another and it makes me start over. **Developer response:** Hello!

No se puede continuar ni con pistas. Abandono ### 1/5 — Stuck with no actions! *2021-09-13, version 1.0.6* Was doing really well. I used the hairpin to open the cupboard and then had to leave the game. Going back into it my hairpin has gone and the cupboard is locked. Used a hint and it says there is no task to do. That’s it then I can’t finish the game. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Avis *2024-08-12* Jeu très intéressant facile un bon passe temps merci ### 5/5 — Bonus game unplayable *2024-05-23, version 1.1.0* Really enjoy playing these.

Aber dass hat nicht den Spaß an der Geschichte genommen. Großes Lob für die immer neuen Geschichten🤗🥰 ### 5/5 — I love these games *2022-11-18* The games are enjoyable, and I’ve had very few "bugs" with them. Also, the developers are quick to respond to problems. Just one thing bugs me … they all drain my iPad battery like crazy. I’ve never had this happen with other developers’ games. Any thoughts on why that happens? **Developer response:** Hello! We appreciate your feedback and will keep working hard on our hidden object games!

Klasse, dass sie kostenlos sind. ### 5/5 — Can’t hear the voices!!! *2022-01-09* When the characters talk to you, you can’t hear them!! What’s up with that?? There must be a major glitch with the sound in this game!! I know you would want me to email your specialists, but I don’t get paid to email game developers issues with their games!! That’s what pre-release testing is for!! I love the secret city series, but issues like this make me less inclined to play these games! I would have given the game a better rating, but the sound issue made me take 3 stars away. Sorry, domini games 🤬 **Developer response:** Hello! Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We will forward all the information you’ve provided to our development team. Thank you for helping us improve casual hidden object games! ### 5/5 — Отлично, но *2021-08-08, version 1.0.6* Стала вылетать игра. Нажимаю играть, он вылетает… так обидно.
