### 4/5 — It’s kind of tricky.

*2022-04-01*

It’s rather tricky but I love it.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2019-03-06, version 1.0.2*

Really enjoying this - riddles add a great dimension to the story. Would love more of these types of text games

### 5/5 — A cute, whimsical little game with terrible puns

*2018-09-20*

A fun riddle-fest in which all answers are ultimately logical...

Except that the white painting seems to be nonfunctional. Try as I might, I could not see anything no matter how I tilted the screen, and had to use my sole magic bean (free answer) of the run. (Its answer is Glockenspiel.)

That aside, I really enjoyed this game and its ingenious answers. I highly recommend it to any riddle-fans.

### 5/5 — An awesome game that will stretch your mind to its limits

*2018-01-11*

This unique game was very different from the normal Hosted Games. Instead of having choices for you to make as the main character, there are numerous riddles and puzzles for you to solve.. you will be scratching your head in frustration, but don’t worry, all the mysteries have solutions! I definitely recommend this game to anyone who enjoys brainteasers because, besides being pretty well written, except for some minor spelling errors, this game definitely delivers!

### 5/5 — Crazy stupid fun!

*2017-09-27*

I just played the free content, but it was great fun, complete with a (partial) happy ending. Riddles are generally easy. If you’re stumped, you can use in-game hints, or your friend Google. Not your usual choose your own adventure and not a trivia game like the App Store says, but really a hoot.

### 1/5 — Be careful the add choice is very messed up

*2017-09-03, version 1.0.1*

Add don't only show in the bottom but flash up after a few pages from em dirty web sites mostly Asda well says Asda then I phone give away abut they seem to get a lot more frequent and nastier I enjoy the game side of it the riddles are good the story is lovely so far but nope I deleted as I was getting too much dirty messages popping up thankfully my niece didn't download it too as it was for her initially

### 5/5 — A great read for all puzzle lovers - kids and adults.

*2017-08-19, version 1.0.1*

This is a very well-written story with a fresh take on many old riddles and puzzles!  As a keen puzzle fan myself, I haven't been stumped yet, but some of the puzzles will challenge a lot of readers.  While the game does have some scary elements to it, the overall story would suit children and adults alike!  I have 2 more mushrooms to get - I'm hoping to be stumped before the end :)
