### 4/5 — Entertaining and good way to pass the time

*2026-07-26, version 1.1.0*

Fun puzzles but some things to find were obscure.  To be fair I would have gaps in my playing time and I would forget to use the tools available. Overall I would say it was fun and made me think which is why I play puzzle games like this.

### 2/5 — Should Have Bought Coffee Instead

*2026-05-13, version 1.1.0*

Huge fan of The Room series and this one had promising reviews. Started out strong, by the mid point I was wishing I’d spent my $4 on a good cup of coffee instead. The puzzles are not intuitive, and most of them felt repetitive and a time waster rather than being challenging. Story was not engaging, on a whole the game just felt blah.

### 2/5 — Now What

*2026-05-09, version 1.1.0*

I purchased it, but I can’t get into it…can’t start a profile. Why??

### 2/5 — Not for the iPhone

*2026-04-13, version 1.1.0*

Possible to play this game on the iPhone now using prompts and even then you can get really stuck.

### 4/5 — Good but…

*2026-04-04, version 1.1.0*

Very good very challenging but my two issues on it are that one it is far too dark with no options to brighten it I get that that’s it’s vibe but I have horrible eyesight and glasses and I really struggled in the dark scenes I wish there was an option to toggle brightness/colors for people with eyesight issues Second thing was that some of the puzzles needed the hints and were next to impossible without them And some that I knew the answer to tried a dozen times and then had to wait for the last hint and suddenly it worked Idk if it’s a glitch or something but wish it was a bit more user friendly

### 2/5 — Want to like the game but can’t

*2026-02-28, version 1.1.0*

I wanted to enjoy this game after playing the room games. Game wants to be fun but has too many problems with it. First when playing on my phone the exit button is in the worst spot ever at the top left of the screen where I am constantly hitting it with my hand. So this will back you out of what you are doing. Second when you are trying to do a task when you are spinning something, or trying to hit a switch the game will think you double tapped and back you out of it again. Third some of the areas are so dark you can’t even see a button or something of importance. Finally some of the stuff you need to do they don’t have anything near to look at that would help you figure it out. They give you clues but some of the clues don’t help you at all. I am finding myself with this game compared to other similar games having to look at walkthroughs way to much.

### 2/5 — Bad for motion sickness

*2026-01-31, version 1.1.0*

The camera floats to places I never meant to go and it is really disorienting. To navigate, I have to wait for the camera animation to fly me to the area. Please consider adding an accessibility feature to turn this off, arrows on the edge of the screen like old flash escape room games would be just fine. Warp, stop flying me!! I really want to complete this but unfortunately the camera movements became further away from each other after chapter 6. I physically cannot play ☹️

### 2/5 — Stuck on chapter 5

*2026-01-21, version 1.1.0*

My lighter wont work no matter what I try. Can you fix this?

### 4/5 — Good game.

*2025-12-29, version 1.1.0*

It was just enough to keep me interested. The mechanics weren’t very challenging though.

### 3/5 — Meh

*2025-10-28, version 1.1.0*

Şöyle öncelikle bu oyun room serisinin getir götürünü yapar. Mesela gereksiz zekayla bulmacayla alakası olmayan sadece uğraştıran birçok bölüm vardı. Ayrıca bir eşyayı objeyi vs incelerken belli açılardan basmazsanız asla tam olarak inceleyemiyorsunuz boş yere vakit kaybettim sürekli. Grafikleri room serisine göre çok kötü. Yani bence indirmeyin değmez

### 3/5 — Major irritation

*2025-10-13, version 1.1.0*

When playing the ‘conquer territory’ game, it is hugely irritating that clicking on/touching the map doesn’t centre you on the area you clicked on/touched straight away, but somewhere else, so you then have to then do more clicks to get to the area you want to play. Hugely irritating and unnecessary.

### 5/5 — TOP TOP

*2025-09-21, version 1.1.0*

Nejlepší logická hračka trhu! Hraji již po čtvrté a stále mně baví ☺️

### 3/5 — Obtuse and infuriating

*2025-09-09, version 1.1.0*

Many of the puzzles are super arbitrary and not really puzzles at all. And don’t get me started on the infernal camera movements and having to incessantly zoom zoom zoom in and out.

### 1/5 — Finicky

*2026-07-19, version 1.1.0*

This game is so frustrating!  If you don’t have your camera at the perfect angle, then many times items don’t work.  Often I am doing exactly what people have said is the next step, like inserting a key, and the key won’t go in the slot.  Also, the oculus doesn’t always work when it’s supposed to.  I deleted the game and won’t be buying anything from Blue Brain again!

### 1/5 — 金を返してほしい

*2026-04-20, version 1.1.0*

途中の幾何学模様をなぞる箇所がクリアできません
ちゃんと線通りになぞっていましたが、色が付かずに進みません
しかも一度指が離れたら最初からやり直さないといけないクソ仕様が本当に腹立たしい
他の人のレビューも見たら、6年も前から指摘されているのに今だに修正されていないのを見るに、ユーザーの声を真摯に受け止めていないようにも思えます
そこまでは楽しく遊べていたのでとても残念です
随分と高評価レビューが多いですが、みんな気にならなかったのでしょうか？

### 1/5 — Why did your company screw up a good game!

*2026-03-20, version 1.1.0*

First time I played this game everything worked now it is screwed up. You do exactly right and it still doesn’t work.

### 1/5 — Hasn’t aged well

*2026-03-01, version 1.1.0*

The taps a controls are off. Along with that, prepare to need help. You will need the horrible and useless clues and you will need to cheat. Not nearly as good as the room.

### 1/5 — Pretty good

*2026-02-10, version 1.1.0*

I was worried by some reviews, but I ended up liking this more than The Room series. Guess I’ll be playing the sequels.

### 1/5 — Can’t play！

*2026-02-02, version 1.1.0*

Keep on (loading ）page even try to renew for many times..help

### 1/5 — Do not buy

*2026-01-26, version 1.1.0*

The glove icon never popped up. I walked through 6 different troubleshooting and nothing fixed it. I’m requested a refund and the apple store doesn’t authorize a refund on this game. Contacted Blue Brains themselves and they refuse too. It’s all scamming. Do not buy.

### 1/5 — Sound is not working

*2025-08-22, version 1.1.0*

I am not sure what is happening with this build but despite of turning on the sound and keeping it 100% it is not working on my iPad. Speakers are working just fine for other apps.

### 1/5 — Terrible programming

*2025-04-21, version 1.1.0*

I paid for this game now its daaayyysss i got stock at snake puzzle in crypt. Cant skip the level, no proper hint, I should just delete the game

### 1/5 — House of Divinchi

*2025-02-25, version 1.1.0*

Complete rubbish and impossible app errors

### 5/5 — Puzzlers Paradise!!

*2026-06-17, version 1.1.0*

Loved this game none stop puzzles amazing graphics smooth transitions puzzles range from easy to difficult which made it more fun!!

### 5/5 — 非常推荐

*2026-06-06, version 1.1.0*

最喜欢的3D游戏，国内的未上锁的房间是抄他的吧，真的很好玩

### 5/5 — Amazing game

*2026-05-02, version 1.1.0*

Game is so fun it keeps me entertained and engaged for hours on end. I strongly suggest to anyone who like puzzle game or solving puzzles.

### 5/5 — Would have been five

*2026-04-29, version 1.1.0*

The absolute best 3D game I’ve ever played  (I have played a few). But you have to use the hints to know what was next. You would think it would go to the next but it didn’t.I don’t have a problem at all getting the hints, so once I understood that you had to play as they had set it up, I played that way,,, loved every minute of it. Will get House of Da Vinci 2 right now, can’t wait to get started. If you are thinking on this game don’t think, get it now.

### 5/5 — So hard!

*2026-04-25, version 1.1.0*

I really enjoyed this game!

### 5/5 — çok iyi

*2026-04-14, version 1.1.0*

çok çok iyi.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2026-03-02, version 1.1.0*

Puzzles are not perfect, not too easy or too hard
Very fair price
Not bogged down with storyline fluff. 
You can read it all or none of it, it no doesn’t effect your experience.

Definitely worth downloading and playing 

I’m going onto the next one. 

Enjoy, I did!

### 5/5 — Super

*2026-01-15, version 1.1.0*

Prechádzam už 2x

### 5/5 — PUES CLARO QUE HAY QUE PAGAR!!!!

*2025-11-22, version 1.1.0*

Un juego extraordinario. Me hace gracia los que dicen que lo malo que tiene es que hay que pagar. ¡Pues claro! Es que si te tomas una cerveza en una terraza, ¿no tienes que pagarla?

### 5/5 — The perfect puzzle

*2025-11-14, version 1.1.0*

It stays interesting, it’s challenging and thrilling. This game is a masterpiece!
