### 3/5 — Ads

*2026-04-10, version 1.3.0*

The game is fun, but there’s wayyy too many ads. It feels like there’s more ad than game, at this point I could be playing a billboard

### 4/5 — Not the Best, Not the Worst

*2025-12-16, version 1.3.0*

Some spoilers:
This game was really fun to play. Once you get past all the ads (the whole hordes of ads), it’s a nice app where you can just sit down and relax. 
The artstyle has to be one of my favorites out of all the games I played. For one, I liked how everyone had pure monochrome color palettes. It made them easily recognizable from each other and matched their personalities. Secondly, the faceless look and the white skin gives the game a much more mysterious feel. The game isn’t scary within itself, but I like how the creators take the strangeness to the extreme. Lastly, it kinda reminds me of YTTD artstyle. 
As the game went on, I could tell the creator was getting more passionate when making the characters. Each tenant had a well drawn room that reflected their quirks. Additionally, a character would hint about their secret without it being too obvious. Then, you find out and everything clicks into place. Also, I liked the supernatural elements to the game. It made the secrets a lot more interesting and shocking. The most remarkable residents for me has to be the Novelist, the Game Master, and the Director. 
One of the downsides of this game to me, besides all the ads, is the lack of interactions between the neighbors. I always liked when another person referenced a previous character. The symmetry guy and the 2 dudes dating each other was cool. However, I was sad when the minimalist didn’t get to meet the skinny girl, but I understand that would ruin his whole writing. 
It would be a lie to call this game generational or revolutionary, but it’s entertaining and that’s all it needs to be.

### 5/5 — Loved it

*2025-09-21, version 1.3.0*

Great game, wish there were more levels 🥹

### 3/5 — Game won’t let me progress

*2025-06-19, version 1.2.0*

The game is good and all but I am just stuck after a certain point in the game

### 5/5 — Room 104

*2025-01-21, version 1.2.0*

If u have a problem with 104 with the signal issue, u need to click on the panel and 
then click the word, “massage”. And that is the signal error.

### 3/5 — Problems with 104

*2025-01-11, version 1.2.0*

I liked the game at first even though there were countless ads. Even forcing you to watch ads to learn the characters secrets, although the secrets weren’t that shocking except for the first one. The only thing I truly had a problem with was room 104 with Mr.Contact. The hint states there’s something wrong with the signal which was obvious but when I tapped on no signal nothing happened. Please get this fixed soon or at least add a way to skip levels (it could even be ad blocked) just so that players can continue on with the game even when it’s acting buggy.

### 5/5 — Amazing game

*2024-12-04, version 1.2.0*

I loved it so much i love the character designs and art style and I hope there are more games like this.

### 1/5 — Can’t even play it

*2024-11-30, version 1.2.0*

Once I opened it it had “trust issues” and even after pressing continue, it would crash. I tried over and over to play it, but it just kept crashing. This game looks like fun and I wish I was able to play it.

### 5/5 — Amazing Game

*2024-11-16, version 1.2.0*

The game is incredibly captivating, and I adore the variety of characters.

### 5/5 — Mr. Property Manager! >.<

*2024-10-29, version 1.2.0*

I absolutely love this game, it’s very fun and I adore how each story is different and had fun little twists! My favorite story so far is the one from apartments 503 and 301, they are certified cuties!😖 I really liked the way they got together ദ്ദി(｡•̀ ,<)~✩‧₊

But, despite all the fun I had playing there’s a teeny little problem I have, the ads. I don’t really care about ads in games but, it is a little annoying having to watch so many ads especially when you fail the level and have to watch another ad each retry. I know it’s normal to have ads as it is a free game but, it can get annoying really quickly.

Anyways! despite the constant ads, I still adore this game and find it very fun and silly, I really hope more people find it-that’s it byeeee
