### 5/5 — Great true adventure game

*2024-11-20, version 1.31*

I like these old style adventure games where you get to discover many scenes and travel back and forth to accomplish tasks. Part of the fun is remembering where something was. Much more challenging than simple linear puzzle games. This lasted a long time for me. I used the hints a few times. Graphics were beautiful and game play was smooth and responsive. I played this years ago and it’s just as enjoyable on my new iPad Pro.

### 5/5 — Beautiful game!

*2022-10-28, version 1.3*

I love all these games, but this one in particular. It has many, many beautiful screens, each of them with one, two, three hidden things to do… And a few of the screens are there just for the beauty of it. The green text describing interactive objects important to the story is also a nice clue. Tapping around is not punished, which is also nice. 

And I must confess that I loved the ending, which does explain a lot of what is really happening. 

I would definitely recommend this game to anyone who loves to search for clues while enjoying beautifully drawn (or rendered?) screens. I would like to send the developers my congratulations for creating this extraordinary game!!

### 1/5 — Purchase only if you want no support

*2022-05-13, version 1.3*

It's beyond infuriating to play a complex game with no way out. Other platforms have a SKIP BUTTON, however, they must have thought that the people on ios were to smart to need one. Close your wallet. The frustration isn't worth this game. They've moved on to other puzzles. No support here.  The underwater elephant puzzle was my nightmare & the end of my support for this developer.

### 4/5 — Great game

*2022-03-02, version 1.3*

Great game. I just wish I could have my own audio keep playing in the background when I open the app.

### 3/5 — Too sprawling to get a handle on

*2021-11-30, version 1.3*

I wound up playing this one at the same time I was working on the last chapter of Meridian 157.  Such a contrast in design effectiveness.

"Lost Fountain" is one of those games that throws many obstacles at you at once as you traverse the various worlds and it takes too much time and effort going back and forth to solve puzzles and accumulate the necessary items to progress.

The outline of the story is somewhat vague and not all that compelling, although the ending has a neat twist but fails to make up for everything leading up to it.

I've found some of the other Media City games (Crimson Manor) to be more focused and rewarding to play than this one.

### 5/5 — Best. Developer. Ever.

*2021-07-03, version 1.2*

I always love games from this developer. Engaging and addicting. Can’t wait for more

### 4/5 — Doc

*2020-11-16, version 1.2*

Stuck at the bamboo door. It wont open via the clue on the wall in B22. It seems others have the same problem. I dont like wasting money on buggy games.

### 1/5 — So confusing!

*2020-06-15, version 1.2*

I began this game thinking that it would be as entertaining as the Alice games, but it did not hold a candle to them. The graphics were beautiful, but the scenery in each area was so similar that I spent most of my time trying to figure out how to get where I needed to go.  Very frustrating!  The map was useless, as it did not indicate how to travel from one location to another, nor did it allow for clicking on an area to travel to it.  That would have helped in the long run. If it had not been for the Appunwrapper site walkthrough I would have deleted this game after the first half-hour.  I persisted because I felt there would be a worthwhile ending to the game.  I am deleting it now and will not be replaying it.

### 4/5 — Good effort

*2020-04-21, version 1.1*

A decent game that takes a long time to finish, if you don’t use the in-built help facility.
Controls slightly clunky and not as polished as some of the ,ore expensive games, but no real complaints.
Certainly one of the better games i’ve played, without being mind-blowing.

### 3/5 — Beautiful theme

*2020-04-04, version 1.1*

I loved everything about this game, especially the many mini puzzles that were challenging yet doable. However, one feature made it more frustrating than fun....the number of scenes that look so similar and the lack of a useable map to click and relocate. It is a constant maze of going places to place, all of which look very similar and I spent more time trying to find what I knew was there than I did playing the games. There is a map, but you can’t click on it to get there. That would make it spectacular. Still I do recommend the game, and the price is well worth it!
