### 1/5 — App tracking

*2026-08-21, version 2.22.2*

It wouldn’t let you choose not to let other apps not track you.

### 3/5 — Coins and Ads

*2026-08-20, version 2.22.2*

Okay, the amount of coins it take to uncover a text, email or phone call is a little over the top. There’s plenty of ads going back and forth from messages, email and calls

### 3/5 — Good story, too many adverts

*2026-08-18, version 2.22.2*

Great story, I was very much gripped and I found it to be very immersive. The downfall was the amount of adverts I had to watch to get coins to progress.

### 2/5 — Ehhh.. Good?

*2026-08-18, version 2.22.2*

You either need to spend a ton of money to advance through the story or wait a full 7 days for it to reload and advance on its own. It can get very tedious to constantly have to either buy coins, keys etc or wait it out for 2 days. I ended up finding spoilers online after waiting 6 days to advance to episode 3. 🫠

### 5/5 — Off

*2026-08-18, version 2.22.2*

Needs to be free

### 2/5 — Eh

*2026-08-15, version 2.22.2*

Wish i could do more than just wait for minutes to get new notifications

### 3/5 — Too slow and not interactive enough

*2026-08-15, version 2.22.2*

The concept of this game is good but the actual execution isn’t great. The videos, photos etc are all a really nice touch but I wish it had more of an investigation feeling rather than just feeling like you’re monitoring someone’s phone.

### 1/5 — Not good anymore

*2026-08-13, version 2.2.12*

It was brilliant when it was Unrd and you could get a subscription for keys but then they stopped adding and updating stories and changed it all completely

### 5/5 — So fun love it

*2026-08-12, version 2.2.12*

I absolutely love this game and waiting to play this for a long time. It’s so fun but I just wish you would give me more clues. Don’t get me wrong. It gives me a lot of clues, but I need a little help and I wish I had a little more tokens because I wasted them in. I absolutely love this game but back to what I was saying joking me wrong. I did waste them so it is my fault but I really wanna see what Alex said I’m talking about I’m only a chapter 1. I bought this game like did I say bye I mean I got this game at like 4 o’clock and it’s 653. I’ve been playing it ever since it’s absolutely addicting and it’s a great game to play if you like true crime thank you so much for reading it and I’ll definitely get this game bye.

### 5/5 — Had me hooked for days

*2026-08-11, version 2.2.12*

Loved this app! I wish we could vote or have a little more an interactive experience but it was fun and I enjoyed the chat feature as well.
