### 4/5 — Little bug plz help!!

*2026-08-16, version 1.9.8*

Hiya with your new update, I had to re get the game!! (Already completed it in the past). And the update is great. One thing tho. On chapter eight 'EDGAR gets pushe off of cliff by ghost wife's - haunted' doesn't let me solve. I really need help I have tried everything

### 5/5 — Great game too

*2026-08-16, version 1.9.8*

Mabey add more levels, love it, super fun, but too short, or at least more devil levels, or mabey something like angel leveles where you must fix the bad ones or something also the book is too big for the screen i cant really use it

### 5/5 — BEST GAME EVER!

*2026-08-16, version 1.9.8*

I really love this puzzle game and the art style! It has become the game that gives  thrills and even exciting chills before opening! I would love even more levels, sequels, and chapters to add to this AMAZING game! I Would also totally recommended this game to others. 😆💯💯

### 4/5 — Glitched display ratio

*2026-08-16, version 1.9.8*

This game is extremely fun however when playing it seems to be zoomed in sightly making unable to access the tabs on the side of the book and on some levels does not allow me to swipe to different levels without having to leave to the menu then going back to the level, I am unsure also if I’m missing some characters for stories where it’s cut off.

### 1/5 — Glitch

*2026-08-16, version 1.9.8*

Loved the game. Finished it pretty quick, so I was hoping for more chapters; but nothing had come out so I deleted the app. I heard that they ended up adding more so I was excited to play it again. 
I cannot log in for some reason. I input my log in information I selected my profile and takes me right back to logging in. I thought maybe it was just my phone but I tried on my tablet and the same happened.
Really disappointed, I hope this gets fixed.

### 1/5 — Glitching?

*2026-08-15, version 1.9.8*

For some reason it keeps glitching. I try to play a level and it takes me back to the previous one. It’s also super zoomed in compared to the first season. It’s really frustrating because I was able to use my apple pen on the other game and now I cannot at all. My apple pen works completely fine off the app but now for some reason it won’t detect it. The glitching and bugs are super frustrating.

### 3/5 — Glitches!

*2026-08-14, version 1.9.8*

The app is not recognizing my Apple Pencil, which it did before and I’m not able to move past the second level only because it’s not letting me set the scene. I’m not able to drag any item onto the stage.

### 3/5 — Netflix exclusive???

*2026-08-14, version 1.9.8*

I love this game but it's so incredibly stupid that the new levels are Netflix exclusive. Why? Most people play on computer so this makes no sense.

### 4/5 — Can't use Apple Pencil

*2026-08-14, version 1.9.8*

I can't use my Apple Pencil while playing the game, can you please fix this problem? i was able to use it before this update, now it doesn’t work in game. :(

### 4/5 — There are still bugs,

*2026-08-13, version 1.9.8*

I’ve tried every way possible to complete the revenant haunted level, and followed online tutorials but it still would not work, I asked google for help and everything it told me to try did not work
