Wish I could get a specific hint. ### 4/5 — Wow *2017-08-05, version 3.0* Really makes you think ### 4/5 — Very confusing *2017-07-25, version 3.0* Just plain confusing ### 4/5 — Very confusing *2017-07-15, version 3.0* Makes you think more than expected. ### 4/5 — Keeping me engaged *2017-06-22, version 3.0* Enjoying the challenge. ### 3/5 — Confusing! *2017-05-30, version 3.0* I just started this game but it is very confusing. I am only writing thus review so I can get a walk-through video. I'm not sure what else to say about it until I've played it. ### 3/5 — Really challenging! *2017-05-18, version 3.0* Just started playing and I'm finding the game very challenging. Haven't played long enough to know yet if I like it. ### 4/5 — Really hard!! *2017-05-10, version 3.0* Just started and quite intriguing. Gonna be up for hours tonite! ### 4/5 — Wow *2017-04-25, version 3.0* Definitely makes your brain work hard! ### 4/5 — Impossible is right! *2017-04-22, version 3.0* I'm still stuck on the 1st room! If you love a challenge, this game is for you. ### 3/5 — Hard to figure out *2017-04-21, version 3.0* Just started playing. ### 3/5 — Just started *2017-04-10, version 3.0* Trying to work through the 1st puzzle, fun so far! It'd be helpful if there was a theme, map, or some sort of guide. Impossible doesn't have to be clueless (void of clues) lol ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Did it say hours of gameplay? *2016-11-22, version 3.0* No it couldn't have, because this game took me 30 minutes and then it was over. Abrupt start and even more abrupt ending. No story building whatsoever, if I didn't read in the description that you broke in to destroy the.. house? I wouldn't know what was happening. It still doesn't even make sense now! But I mean, it's free. So how much can I really complain without sounding like a wannabe critic. ### 2/5 — Mediocre *2018-12-07, version 3.0* There are a number of bugs in the game (arrows that don't actually rotate to left) and other puzzle that didn't seem like I gig them right but things unlocked anyway. ### 3/5 — Too early *2020-11-15, version 3.0* It’s awfully early in the game to have to write a review as I don’t know yet. But I guess the fact that I’m stuck this early to need a walkthrough says something... ### 3/5 — Good puzzles but not a cohesive story *2020-06-03, version 3.0* These puzzles were interesting but overall the game lacked a feeling like you’re getting somewhere. Just sort of lacks a story ### 3/5 — Has potential *2017-08-25, version 3.0* I like the fact that they've designed it, so we can actually grab objects. I dont like that when you're stuck, you're stuck. I'd like clues, not the entire walk through. ### 3/5 — Just started *2017-08-22, version 3.0* Still trying it out... interface is nice and simple ### 3/5 — Super challenging *2017-06-27, version 3.0* Hard to figure out when stuck but fun otherwise ### 3/5 — Idrk *2017-06-22, version 3.0* There's no help tool so I was really confused about what to do and there's no where to get hints but it seems true to its name bc it's pretty hard... Ig idrk ### 3/5 — Not too bad *2017-06-12, version 3.0* Could be better. Thought some more instructions might help out. ### 3/5 — Still waiting for the wow *2017-06-03, version 3.0* Hoping to find it with the walk through ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Challenging *2020-09-09, version 3.0* This game will keep u occupied for hours at a time.
