Meh

Its a decent, albeit juvenile attempt. Graphics and music are good. The movement could def use a little more streamlining. The grammar in any onscreen text is pretty atrocious. Improper use of commas, run-on sentences, etc. Developer has a good head start in the programming department but really needs to catch up on their English homework lol

Help

I just get a black screen 😬

Satisfying little puzzler

Quite short , but decent code based puzzles, some quite clever. I will look up more by this developer.

Too short but entertaining

This is a game that is actually way too short, and, to be honest, one I had to get a hint or two to complete. It makes you use your brain matter in ways that don’t come naturally, but that’s a good thing. It’s different, but that’s also a good thing. For the price, it’s a great ways to kill some time. Bet there’s a puzzle or two you aren’t able to figure out without some frustration. I’ll be playing it again very soon and try my best not to use any hints.

Another hit!

I spend everyday checking to see if there is another game in this series because I love them so much. Mistico is just as great as the other games in every way, I have them all and never hesitate to snap new ones up. Excellent 👍

Play it

Thank you, loved the scene shifts and interconnected puzzles

Lovely mystery, storyline and puzzling adventure

Disappointing

If you like code breaking games with minimal obscure clues and not much in the way of gameplay then this game is for you.

Response from developer

Thanks for your feedback, Tarakan is primarily a puzzle game so it's main element will be code breaking gameplay, I'd like to think this came across in the description and I've not mislead. Thanks for trying anyway :)

Excellent

This game was a huge improvement on the previous one, which was still very good. Mind-twisting puzzles. The final one really had me going 🤪 More please. Really my kind of game 👍🏼
Now I’ve discovered M9, I’ll be playing them all.

Good puzzles

Good game, nice level of challenge - had to cheat for the abort code though - hints would be better.
definitely worth the money

Love it

This is the continuation of Tierra and I liked this even better. Each M9 game gets better and better and this one was really good. Challenging puzzles, but do-able. I liked that there were different locations to go to. Definitely play this game if you like point and click adventures!

Response from developer

Thanks for the glowing recommendation! I'm really please you enjoyed the game and found the puzzles a good challenge. Thanks again for playing!

Great fun😁

The puzzles are a delight, some easy and some so darn elegantly executed you will surprise yourself with the answers… when you eventually get them! The graphics are beautiful and the soundtrack wonderfully relaxing. The developer is kind when you need hints and that is much appreciated. Purchase this game and enjoy yourself, it’s well worth it.

Response from developer

Thanks so much for the amazing review! I'm so glad you had an amazing adventure and you enjoyed all the puzzles and atmosphere! Take care :)

Great so far

Until I got to the door with the four shapes above it. I used the key I found in the computer room on that door. Was I supposed to be able to do that? Seems I can’t go any further.

Response from developer

Hi there, no you shouldn't be able to use the key on that door, I'll have to take a look at that! Quickest thing to do is restart the level. Sorry for the trouble! UPADTE: This is now fixed in update 1.0.1!
