### 4/5 — le château

*2022-10-28, version 1.0.0*

Très intéressant

### 4/5 — Very good

*2021-10-30, version 1.0.0*

Nice long main game, bonus was short though. Good puzzles, good graphics.

### 3/5 — Romeo and Juliet meets the Hound of Baskerville….

*2021-09-23, version 1.0.0*

So, i enjoyed the game but it was kind of the same old, same old kinda deal. You know the type, nobility falls for the low life commoner, daddy’s mad and forbids the union, girl dies and daddy has low life commoner killed. The whole Romeo and Juliet tragedy…yawn! Oh, and by the way, I deducted a star for killing the  dog you cads! 

I had no issues with any bugs or glitches. The music was soothing and enjoyable and the hops were decent although at the end of the bonus game trying to defeat the dark half of Lord Flatbury it was impossible to see the ruin symbols through the moonstone because your finger has to be in the middle of the stone.  I ended up skipping it which I hate doing. 

Last, the demon dog with the black knight just disappears. He’s evident until you chase him from the locked room, then poof, he’s gone. I would have liked to have seen him released at the end as well. All in all not bad just predictable.

### 2/5 — ???

*2021-09-05, version 1.0.0*

I just purchased this game and now there is a sign telling me about morphing objects that will not go away! Cannot comment on anything else because I can’t see behind this stupid sign in spite of repeated tapping which usually makes these disappear

### 4/5 — Great game

*2021-08-17, version 1.0.0*

However there is no translation in French.

### 4/5 — Spirit of Revenge

*2021-06-20, version 1.0.0*

This game is really good but if I try to play a second time I have the same problem when opening the chest to take the book and puzzle piece. The drawer closes and I have to delete app and re-install. I checked strategy guide and I had followed the sequence exactly but this keeps happening.
Very frustrating, has anyone else had this problem?

### 5/5 — Great game

*2020-09-12, version 1.0.0*

This game grabbed me from the beginning but was disappointed it didn’t last long ... but really enjoyed it

### 5/5 — Fun

*2020-09-09, version 1.0.0*

Easy game to play

### 5/5 — Good story line

*2020-09-07, version 1.0.0*

Easy, but not too easy.  Relaxing- thanks

### 3/5 — Mini puzzles don’t work

*2020-09-06, version 1.0.0*

I’ve just started but I’ve been through 3 mini puzzles that don’t work. I probably won’t buy this game.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2020-08-31, version 1.0.0*

It’s amazing I’ve had it for two years

### 5/5 — Brilliant entertainment

*2019-11-22, version 1.0.0*

A nice little tale: Beautiful Princess separated from her dearest love by a cruel father etc etc...smart investigator saves the princess and her love while facing dangers all alone while Police chief and poor old Bobby stay nice and safe and well fed outside the castle walls!
Enjoyable, loads of puzzles-some new-some old or based on a theme and some new.  It’s lovely, and long too. Loved it. I do like games with maps,  so you can jaunt from place to place immediately too.

### 5/5 — Great & Long Game 👍👍👍

*2019-09-10, version 1.0.0*

I’ve played well over 100 Big Fish HOGs and I was beginning to find that they were getting shorter or I was finishing them faster.  This was a long game and I really enjoyed playing it.  It is now September 2019 and I noticed that this game was released in 2015, so maybe the newer games are shorter.  I still enjoy playing almost all of them.
Keep up the good work Big Fish HOG developers!  And thank you 😊

### 5/5 — Wow

*2019-09-08, version 1.0.0*

This was a fantastic game.  It was like I was really going through the experience myself. Awesome job...needing new game like that.

### 1/5 — Et la langue en français

### 1/5 — Unimpressive, poor coding

*2020-09-17, version 1.0.0*

Don’t bothet

### 1/5 — Spirit of revenge, cursed castle

*2020-09-09, version 1.0.0*

Got to the stage of paying for this game, did so and now it’s not working. Keeps crashing to main iPad screen? Fix please or re-emburse

### 1/5 — Cursed castle

*2020-09-08, version 1.0.0*

The game doesn’t play properly so I have ended up having to skip which I don’t like doing.to be honest I wish I hadn’t bought it

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2019-09-08, version 1.0.0*

Pop up windows obscure game

### 1/5 — Ugh

*2019-09-06, version 1.0.0*

Problems enter ones name in the beginning. Got it going, but now I'm stuck, because it won't let me take a part for an airbrush, in the cabinet. Can see others have same problem. Why don't you get it fixed? Heard from another person, that she experienced several of times having errors in games, and she have yet to try to see games fixed. Tried finding errors myself several of times now, so might just stop buying games now. Sigh.

### 1/5 — Was going well but then.......

*2019-08-19, version 1.0.0*

a window popped up about collecting morphing objects will give you extra hints but now that window is stuck and won’t leave my page. Wherever I go in the game, the window is there, blocking some of the necessary items or text on the page that I need to see. Very frustrating.

### 1/5 — Château maudit

*2019-01-04, version 1.0.0*

Comment mettre le jeu en français

### 1/5 — En anglais

*2018-09-18, version 1.0.0*

Pas de résolution depuis plus d’un an, le jeu reste en anglais... dommage

### 5/5 — Broken

*2022-08-16, version 1.0.0*

At the beginning of the game there is a trigger for a mini game that freezes the screen and does not let me access the rest of the areas I need to enter. This happens in the dinning room located on the other side of the girls bedroom with the fire place. There is a stand with a locked drawer to trigger the mini game you have to press on the book in the drawer when I do this I automatically exit the screen back to the previous one and it is frozen. A shame since I have loved to play this game in the past.

### 5/5 — Super game

*2022-07-16, version 1.0.0*

One of the best I have ever played, top quality.

### 5/5 — Spirit of revenge

*2022-07-15, version 1.0.0*

Great game. Liked it very much

### 5/5 — Great

*2021-09-09, version 1.0.0*

Loved nice long game with diff. Mini games.

### 5/5 — Luv luv!

*2021-09-05, version 1.0.0*

So fun, most enjoyable!

### 5/5 — Enjoyable

*2021-09-03, version 1.0.0*

Really enjoying this game, lots of quests which though quite easy are still enjoyable to do.  Good story and for the price of £2.49, well worth the money.  There is a bonus as well when you complete the first game, which I am looking forward too. Glad I purchased it.

### 5/5 — Big fish

*2021-05-19, version 1.0.0*

I love it

### 5/5 — The best hidden object I’ve done in a long time...

*2020-10-17, version 1.0.0*

Greatest hidden object game done so far...

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2020-09-16, version 1.0.0*

The game was great loved the graphics and I would have enjoyed the mini games more if there was more clarity with the instructions on a couple of them.  Th story line was okay,  the hidden objects were fantastic.

### 5/5 — Tragic Love Story

*2020-09-15, version 1.0.0*

I love this game! It’s definitely different from the other hidden object/adventure games I’ve played before. The videos playing in between game play are great. I love a good tragic love story. Some puzzles are easy and some a little rough but all in all it’s a really good game. I have no complaints about any tech issues. Game has been running smoothly from the start. I hope I could find more games like this one. Definitely my favorite
