I even had to go back and restart it .still the same thing Smh! ### 4/5 — Nice idea but only episode 1. *2023-02-23, version 2.0.2* This was made, at least 5 years ago, so It doesn’t look like we can expect any more episodes. ### 3/5 — Great game, but.. *2022-12-05, version 2.0.2* This is a great game, but in the lab with the turrets it has proven impossible to slip by them by creeping along the right hand wall.. Every time I get to the boxes to hide behind as the walkthrough shows the game allows the turret guns to shoot through the boxes and kill the robot.. I would love to finish this game but it seems there is a bug that keeps one from progressing.. ### 3/5 — Game Locks Up *2022-02-23, version 2.0.2* Seems the game locks up when finding a heavy object to dislodge the pipe in the apartment building. As you walk back out of the building, you just turn around in circles. ### 3/5 — Adequate. Not for the casual gamer. *2022-02-13, version 2.0.2* The game is fine. The movement is a bit slow and it can feel like the robot takes forever. The game doesn’t save enough, so I found I was needing to commit to playing at last 5 minutes so the game saves, but I’m more of a casual player and found that scenes we’re starting at the beginning most of the time. ### 2/5 — Apartment glitch *2021-01-22, version 2.0.2* Like the others, I was enjoying the game until I got stuck at the apartment spinning in circles. Really wish we could finish the game. ### 2/5 — Game was pretty good until the glitch *2021-01-03, version 2.0.2* I have the same review as card_buddy... the robot gets stuck just outside the apartment building after trying to remove the pipe by hand. The robot keeps circling around and around on a continuous loop... and you have no choice but to restart the level from the beginning to break the loop. (There is no save function mid-level) Tried to replay the level, because the game was pretty good until that point, but then gave up when it happened again. Please fix. ### 4/5 — Cool home but lots of narrative *2020-12-23, version 2.0.2* I like these types of games with a role play, puzzle solving, action themed and story line, and this game is all that. But 2 things: there’s a lot of narrative going on and your just sitting there waiting to start playing again. I understand the story line needs to be put out there, but it seemed a bit much. The other is that it’s already over. It’s is only the 1st episode and it was over fast. So my question to the creators......”when is the next chapter(s) coming out? ### 4/5 — Amazing game with good storyline...but *2020-12-22, version 2.0.2* I love the storyline of this game and the main character so far but it does have glitches where the character gets caught on doors and camera angles getting stuck. Also the graphics are a bit low but can be improved, along with that there should be a hint system implemented for puzzles and guides so the player can know where there objective is. ### 4/5 — Next? *2020-12-20, version 2.0.2* I just need more. Completed chapter one and hope there will be more. Only downside is controller use is very limited on IOS almost to buggy to use. More chapters and full controller support on IOS is all the more I hope for. Loved the story from start to finish in this installment and the implementation of achievements have me ready for another play through after another chapter is released. So, what’s next? ### 2/5 — Looks like a good game but... *2020-12-16, version 2.0.2* It is not able to be played because it has bugs in it which prevent you from completing the tasks set. ### 2/5 — Not good on iPad *2020-12-15, version 2.0.2* The game was decent until I got to the point where you have to avoid the turrets and cross the room. This is on an iPad I bought last year. There are several places where the camera angle is too narrow and it’s hard to take action because things are not visible. One location is in the ventilation room — the view does not show far enough to the right to be able to exit the room. In the conference room, the action button for the viewscreens is at the very right hand edge. At the location where you’re supposed to avoid the turrets, all I see is a sliver of the right side of the room, with no way to see the left or center part of the room. I have not found any way to adjust the camera angle to see other views. One other thing — I tried to adjust the graphics quality to see if I could get a wider view. I can tell that the graphics are getting lower quality as I adjust the slider, but when I hit Apply, it always reverts to highest quality. So I’m done, unless there’s an update that makes it better. ### 3/5 — Needs dev attention *2020-12-10, version 2.0.2* I really want to give the game a 5 but it’s too buggy. Very great story, but I keep getting stuck due to imprecise controls. No way to exit ventilation room as others have said. I wish they would just get rid of any action portion that requires timing as the controls are imprecise and inconsistent. If these get fixed I would change the rating ### 3/5 — Glitch *2020-12-09, version 2.0.2* Game was going great until I get to the apartment building. After entering, when I come back out of the building, the robot continues in circles. 3 times this happened and with no option to save (auto save is only at certain points) I had to start over again. So I’ve given up due to frustration. Really enjoyed it before the glitch. ### 2/5 — Buggy, non-sensical adventure with barely literate dialog. *2020-11-10, version 2.0.2* I’m about 30 minutes in. The graphics are pretty good, and the audio, the same, but the actual story... ugh. In the first 20 seconds we’re told how perfect the robot society is, and then, seemingly every single minute after that, we see or experience or do something that undermines that. The character dialog (English) is very poorly written, making it annoying to read or listen to, and sometimes hard to understand. The game is set 200 years in the future, starring walking, talking A.I. Robots but, wireless networking, that’s futuristic. The author’s understanding of IT and Networking (used as puzzles and plot points in the early game) is hilariously vague and the “futuristic” computers and network gear look stolen from bad 1950’s pulp S.F. The game makes a habit of offering the player actions that it won’t let the player do. Example: showing an available action on an item, and when the player chooses it, telling them some variation of “you can’t do that”. As if, the player getting their metaphorical hand slapped over and over is “fun”. (It isn’t.) Wort of all are the numerous game killing bugs. Right now I’ve replayed an annoying section four times where the player walks out of an apartment building and then just starts spinning uncontrollably in one spot, seemingly without end. The periodic, game controlled, progress saving system doesn’t have a save point nearby, so every time I restart, I have to do the whole section of the game over again. It’s getting pretty frustrating. There are MANY better adventure games in the App Store. I suggest you avoid this and try one of those. ### 3/5 — A great start but needs work *2020-04-28, version 2.0.2* The plot, premise, general atmosphere, voices, visuals and music of this game are top notch. Being the first chapter of an interesting story, it ends on a cliffhanger that makes you want to find out more of it. The small little inserts of humor are great, & just obscure enough not to take away from the more serious tone of the game. So all in all, a good start (presentation-wise) to an intriguing adventure game. That said, the game itself is a little wonky and could stand to be vastly improved. The controls are okay, but movement can be buggy in certain spots. Many times you will find yourself spinning around with no way to stop. Other times, the spots that transition you from one screen to the next are so far away or difficult to reach that you’ll need to back up and tap the extreme edge of the screen just to get there. These are both quite frustrating, and definitely need to be fixed. Other bugs include disappearing audio dialogue - isnt so bad since there are subtitles - and movement/screen view troubles. It should be noted, however, that none of these things prevented me from finishing the game (minus a few restarts) or enjoying it as a whole. The only other thing I would suggest is improving the dialogue trees. Sometimes you can choose all the options, but other times you can only choose one of them before the conversation moves forward. This is frustrating when there are questions you have or things you want to know. If if werent for the buggy gameplay and somewhat wonky dialogue, i would have given this game five stars. As it is I’m hoping the next chapter comes out soon and has these issues fixed, because I would very much like to continue playing. ### 3/5 — Wonderful...until the accessibility issues *2019-09-30, version 2.0.2* I loved every minute of this game— it is clever and interesting and has a great story, with puzzles that are not very hard to solve but still take some thinking. But then I got up to the room with the security turrets at the lab and what was a puzzle/story/adventure game suddenly requires reflexes that I, someone with a joint disorder, just don’t have. I tried— for hours— to get past that scene, and I watched play throughs, and tried to do what those players did, and I simply physically can’t. Usually when I encounter a game that’s going to need fast, calculated motion, I know it in the first few minutes and can nope out. This reminds me a lot of Life Is Strange in that it’s a game that I was able to play almost to the end and am now stuck because it is asking me to do something that is a physically impossible for me. If you’re going to create a game where one scene has a radically different gameplay style than the rest, PLEASE either warn up front or have a way for players like me who can’t play in that way to skip the outlier scene. It’s so frustrating to get so invested in a game and then have to just stop without getting to know how it ends because the developers didn’t think about disability access. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Help *2023-03-07, version 2.0.2* I can’t move after I’ve cracked the case! I am stuck! Someone fix it please! ### 1/5 — Freezes a lot! *2022-07-11, version 2.0.2* Beware, there has been no updates to correct this game. It freezes a lot at each new scene and you have to start over, only to have it freeze again. Too bad, it has a great plot, good graphics and sound. I could not finish the game because of all the glitches. The developer has not responded or has abandoned this game. What a shame. ### 1/5 — Cool game, too bad you can’t complete it. *2022-02-06, version 2.0.2* I loved this game until I got to the security drown guns. The controls are so sloppy and slow, it is impossible to complete the game. Great story, really lousy execution on the controls. ### 1/5 — Glitch *2022-02-05, version 2.0.2* This game has not been updated in years. It is unfortunate because it is a good game. However there is a glitch where the robot gets stuck rotating in place and no way to proceed. Basically makes the game unplayable. ### 1/5 — Very glitchy *2021-03-30, version 2.0.2* There’s one scene that I can’t finish (apartment building scene), every time the robot exits the building it gets stuck spinning in circles and you can’t proceed. It’s quite annoying. I’ve seen multiple reviews with this glitch mentioned, beware. ### 1/5 — Stuck at safe *2021-03-14, version 2.0.2* Stuck in front of the safe , everything seizes, tried to reboot 3 times. Waste of time. ### 1/5 — Glitchy and they’ve known for YEARS *2020-12-14, version 2.0.2* Just downloaded this to my iPad and wasted hours. It keeps glitching. Sometimes it has you running around in circles (literally) with no way to stop and others you enter a room but it won’t let you leave. You move to where the passageway is and it acts as it your character is running into a wall. The only way out is to exit and come back in which often takes you 20-30 back in your gameplay where you have to discover the rooms and find the objects over and over again and hope it doesn’t glitch again. Well, it did and, for me, it was the last time. Immediately came over to write a review. Reading through the it is clear that these bugs have been known for literally YEARS and they still haven’t fixed them. I will stay away from this company in the future. BE WARNED, DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME!!! ### 1/5 — About to delete this game *2020-12-12, version 2.0.2* I openend the safe 3 times, and 3 x the whole game froze. It was fun up to that point, but I’m now at the end of my patience! Please debug and I will try again. ### 1/5 — Sticks *2020-12-10, version 2.0.2* It started well enough, but eventually came to a point on leaving the informant’s apartment block where the character sticks and just spins around. I tried to get past this point a few times, but the glitch always returns. There is no way I am able to progress in the game, which makes it unplayable. I can only give it one star because of that. ### 1/5 — Glitchy *2019-06-02, version 2.0.2* Just started and the robot just pivots in one spot. I can’t fix it so I can’t continue. Delete and refund. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — respect *2022-12-18, version 2.0.2* игра очень крутая и интересная, графика не отстаёт, хоть это и игра на телефон. есть баги как и простые, так и из-за которых пришлось перезаходить, но их мало, буду ждать 2 эпизод🎅 ### 5/5 — Great Game With Minor Control Issues *2020-12-28, version 2.0.2* I finished the game, and it was not short at all, so well worth the cost to play. In some rooms, you must tap high up on the doorway to be able to exit, so that is my one gripe as it is not intuitive. Minor control issue, but if you don’t know to tap high, then you will be stuck and frustrated. The game is really well done in terms of graphics, audio, storyline, and playability for entertainment. I thoroughly enjoyed this game 100%. I hope the devs make a sequel. I have not found it in the App Store yet, but I am hopeful. The minor room exit issue is not enough to ding the game a star, so 5 stars are my feelings on this game. Cheers! ### 5/5 — Fascinating game *2020-12-12, version 2.0.2* There are glitches with moving around the lab and operating the aerocar when escaping drones but I've gotten to both destinations somehow. Managed to finish the game and loved it. Interesting plot, very good design, entertaining puzzles. Great job! Looking forward to the next or ending part. ### 5/5 — Enjoyable *2020-09-23, version 2.0.2* I’m not too far into this game but so far I’m loving it, the storyline alone is brilliant and right up my street, a much more original idea than most games, the puzzles so far have been logical and just the right difficulty setting, and the visuals are great, people really do want the Earth for the price of a coffee these days don’t they! So far I’ve had no crash or looping issues but il add more to my review as I progress, perhaps ppl should stop moaning and start appreciating others efforts or developers will lose heart and stop using such imagination. Oh and the humour has already made me chuckle a few times, especially the robots attempt to avoid updates 😂 and the mysterious swing set! Sorry Art piece. ### 5/5 — Where’s the next one? *2019-07-27* Beautiful work for ipad ### 5/5 — Yes, an excellent adventure. Highly recommend! *2019-04-05, version 2.0.2* While I too spun around awhile coming out of the apartment building I was able to get around the glitches and finish the game. This appears to be a new game. The story was entertaining and I definitely think that minor glitches in no way should depreciate the fact that this is a five star game. You can fix glitches but the story/game itself is top notch. To the devs, I use IPad Pro 1st gen. I was stuck a few times in the air ventilation room too. I was able to either shut down to get out or just happen to hit it right. It almost seemed that the exit was off screen. Had there been a place that allowed me to save it, Along with your auto save feature, then I wouldn’t have lost minor progress. During the airborne sequence it seemed that I had no control at all, I kept smashing into things. Maybe I was supposed to but even when there appeared something at the bottom of the screen I didn’t get it. Perhaps it was just me. The gyroscope is definitely touchy. I learned to slow down to keep it from looping. I wish there was a way to be updated in the game with new chapters (like an update appears that gives you the opportunity to purchase new episodes) as I look forward to purchasing the next one. I only comment on glitches for your information, habit from beta testing. Thanks for hours and hours of good/fun entertainment. ### 5/5 — More Episodes??? *2018-01-31, version 2.0.2* I loved this game and I have completed episode 1. I had to keep restarting from beginnings of certain parts of the game if I exited the app, it took a lot longer than 3 hours to play! Another thing I noticed is it says episodic, when do more episodes come??? ### 5/5 — Amazing but.. *2017-12-28, version 2.0.2* This is a beautiful game. So far I am enjoying it but there are a few issues. I see that you recently fixed glitches and bugs. However, I just downloaded this and I can’t continue because there is a glitch. When rt is assigned to find the informers apartment and “has to find another way in” if you try to go back outside Rt literally just spins around so you are unable to exit or tap anything. Tried to restart but I’m stuck. Please fix this as soon as possible. UPDATE: after closing the app, while it’s running in the background, then opening it again seemed to stop the glitch. UPDATE (again): I realized it’s the gyroscope that is causing this glitch. ### 5/5 — YES!! Thank you! *2017-12-14, version 2.0.1* I really love playing these type of games! And I enjoyed playing this one! It will def be a top seller!! Thank you! Please make more! ### 5/5 — Ready for episode 2 *2017-12-14, version 2.0.1* Played game on my iPad Air and finished episode 1. Looking forward to episode 2. Great storyline. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
