The hint button is a little too slow compared to other games I’ve played but besides that it keeps you on your toes. ### 4/5 — Short game time *2020-05-07, version 1.0.0* If you like these sort of games then you’ll enjoy this, but it should be priced cheaper as much shorter than others... ### 4/5 — Enjoyed this game *2020-03-12, version 1.0.0* Moves quickly between scenes, good puzzles and enjoyed the music. Entertaining. ### 4/5 — Patn *2019-04-15, version 1.0.0* Good game with lovely graphics and reasonable storyline. Shame that the details in the HOGs were so tiny and dark - very hard to see on my iPad. Puzzles were either a bit simplistic or quite complex, so somewhat of a challenge. A little short too, so definitely not worth paying the full price. ### 4/5 — Confirmed big fish fan *2019-04-14, version 1.0.0* Challenging as ever. ### 5/5 — Surface 8 *2017-06-04* Tolles Spiel, schönste Grafik von allen Spielen dieses Genres. Hoffentlich werden noch mehr Spiele davon auf den Markt gebracht! ### 4/5 — They need to make a full free version *2017-03-19, version 1.0.0* Its really nice and intellectual ### 5/5 — It's one of the best games *2016-11-24, version 1.0.0* You can't find many games as good as this one on big fish inc. A big 5 stars rating ### 5/5 — Surface:Return to another world *2016-08-17* Неплохая игра.НО!!!Сюжет ПОЛНОСТЬЮ скопировали с первой части.Однако при всём этом ставлю вам 5(графика и музыка не подкачали.Надеюсь,что в следующей части сюжет и мир будут интереснее). ### 4/5 — Bon jeu mais payant pour la suite *2016-07-29* Je trouve ce jeu vraiment bien et j'ai bien aimé sauf qu'à un moment il devient payant pour continuer donc je suis un peu déçu car je le trouve vraiment cool. Mais je le recommande tout de même c'est prenant. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Quit working *2021-05-22, version 1.0.0* Took forever to load, (compared to all other games I’ve played) on original install. Enjoyed play, paid for full game. Two days later I tried to open app and it was a black screen—-nothing! Deleted it to reload. Back to taking forever to load and if it does load I have lost all progress. I would like, and deserve, a refund for this game. ### 1/5 — Why *2021-03-14, version 1.0.0* So this is the 3rd big fish game I have purchased that once I pay won’t continue with the game. Makes me so angry. Each time big fish offer a voucher but the voucher only works on a computer. I want my money back. Or fix your games so I can play what I have paid for. ### 1/5 — Not good *2020-03-21, version 1.0.0* The mini games just do not work. Bad info and lack of function. ### 1/5 — Purchase not found *2019-04-13, version 1.0.0* Another SCAM BY BF WE KEEP BUYING GAMES AND WE HAVE TO PAY EVERY TIME WE REINSATLL THEM??? Scam!!!! Contracted by customer service but had no answer or automated email. THIS IS A DELIBERATE SCAM BY BF TO STEAL MONEY ### 1/5 — Terrible support *2016-11-28, version 1.0.0* Do not buy this game! Once you make the purchase, the game will not open! And when you reinstall it, it says that no purchase was found...have tried to contact customer service three times to get help or a refund, without any response. Maybe the next step is to call the B.B.B. ### 1/5 — Deja Vu *2016-07-17, version 1.0.0* Haven't we played this before? Says version 1.0.0, released 7/16/16. I remember having to find that same gnome a "companion" in a game I've already played. Wool over the eyes? I play these games religiously, because my bank account says so. What's up? ### 2/5 — Possibly the dullest game ever *2020-03-11, version 1.0.0* Slow, difficult, dense, unexciting. Not a compelling storyline. I played this long ago and recently bought it for another device. Mistake. I guess humans tend to forget about pain, or at least boredom. ### 2/5 — Is it a HOP or just making me Hop...??🐇🐾 *2019-08-30, version 1.0.0* ? 🐰 🐾 Definitely not an HOP. This episode belongs in the murky depths, along with bottom feeders....and, no, not the ones featured on LOGO...lol...#LOVEmyRuPAUL The constant back+forth hoop-jumping search (and I mean, CONSTANT) either for items that unlock (doors, compartments, drawers, etc) or fix, or complete objects, becomes so tedious and mind numbing ... definitely doesnt qualify as an HOP Game. I agree with Cache, I mainly play for the Puzzles and Mini-Games, the more complex, challenging and different the better. The Developer needs to focus on making the three main ingredients shine, keep spicing them up, using different and unique varieties, keep them coming back for more. Over time all the “NameSake” Searches became so ridiculously obvious, that it was pointless and BORING.... Try actually HIDING objects, and trying new formats and ways of playing. ### 2/5 — Not worth it *2017-03-20, version 1.0.0* Too short, too easy, boring in general. I miss the old surface games. ### 3/5 — Different *2017-12-16, version 1.0.0* This game is a bit different from the other "Surface" games. Its puzzles are different, and have poor instructions. You have a map with teleportation. The help screen is good. Trying to find the "objects"is strange. Some are very easy to find, others, I still didn't locate. I only played the trial version and I'm not sure that I like it. I skipped at least one puzzle, the register, because I didn't understand the instructions. Is it worth buying? Not sure. Update: It's a year later, and I tried it again. I skipped a couple of games because the pieces wouldn’t move. The register wouldn’t allow me to make connections, the houses wouldn’t let me move the windows, etc. I got very tired of the ack ad forth, too, even with the teleport, it was simply distracting s d added time to the game. Otherwise, it was boring. This game isn’t for me. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Wanderful! *2022-04-03* Molto bello ### 5/5 — Five stars plus *2021-04-03, version 1.0.0* Love this game beautiful scenes and animals to collect ### 5/5 — Clever *2020-03-19, version 1.0.0* Love the surface games, difficult then easy, then challenging, covers all aspects of playing these games, excellent graphic, puzzles are all doable, some will take some working out but love the challenge, worth buying, hos are a delight, not just plain search and find, and love looking for the extras ### 5/5 — Good job! *2020-03-06, version 1.0.0* Artwork clear and sceneries not dark. Zoom options helps a lot. Game well planned and organized flow. Mini games are well done and with different levels of difficulties. Free part to play is long. Great game. ### 5/5 — Really good *2019-06-26, version 1.0.0* It’s too expensive ### 5/5 — An engrossing game *2019-05-06, version 1.0.0* I’ve really enjoyed this game. Gr8 graphics and sound.
