Soweit ok gemacht, aber ab Level 10 oder 11 kommt nach jeder Wimmelbild Szene Werbung, außer man bezahlt. Das ist zuviel, deshalb werde ich das Spiel sofort deinstallieren. ### 3/5 — Next chapter? *2026-01-07, version 1.0.33* I enjoyed this game and completed it several years ago, I’m still waiting for the next chapter. Any idea why it might happen? ### 3/5 — Fun *2025-10-31, version 1.0.33* No Halloween House this year is disappointing. ### 3/5 — Fun but a lot of glitches *2024-10-03, version 1.0.33* There must have been an update because all of a sudden I am getting “cannot connect to server” issues after completing a game. The only way to get the app to restart is to power off and restart the device you are using for the game. Please return the game to the way it was! ### 2/5 — Forced ads *2024-10-01, version 1.0.33* The game forces you to watch long ads. You are not able to opt out. It’s a good game except for constant ADS!!! ### 4/5 — Fun game but….. *2024-09-27, version 1.0.33* Fun game but energy runs out too quickly Thanks ### 2/5 — Too many adverts *2024-09-07, version 1.0.33* No need for an advert every time a scene is completed 🥱 ### 3/5 — Review *2024-09-02, version 1.0.33* Started out, loving this game, but too much energy not enough awards not worth a little time I have. I am going to delete it. Lots of possibilities, but not there yet. ### 3/5 — Strong Eye Strain, low Quality scenes, but not bad *2024-04-28, version 1.0.33* Been playing for a week or two and I don’t hate this game, in general I enjoy it. But I doubt I’ll be playing it for long. There is very low contrast on the scenes which makes it difficult to see many of the objects. If the scenes were higher quality, this might not be as big of an issue. But when you zoom in, it’s just extremely pixelated and doesn’t make much clear. There’s also issues with zooming in any of the special modes. Hidden object, find the difference, etc. most of the time zooming makes it even more difficult to see or to move around the scene. I enjoy this game but it gives me eye strain so I probably won’t play it for long. ### 4/5 — Fab! love storyline im hooked *2024-02-23, version 1.0.33* you have to decide what quest u want to do which is cool CONS- the text is tiny energy goes down quickly better than junes journey by far one type puzzle is hard wish there was some help ### 2/5 — Lack of solid storyline vs Murder in the Alps *2024-01-29, version 1.0.33* Wish I could enjoy this more like the murder mystery "Murder in the Alps” app that keeps evolving on its storyline. This instead feels like it’s just a mixture of a pokies machine and a thinly veiled fantasy world overlay on top. Limited storyline/character substance. Sort of use your own imaginary story to keep your self going. Some may like this type of thing. Lack of desire for me to continue. Not captivating enough. ### 2/5 — Progress isn’t saving *2023-11-03, version 1.0.33* Please fix ### 3/5 — Had enough *2023-10-12, version 1.0.33* Having reached level 26, I’ve decided I’ve had enough of the incessant advertising, many of which take far too many clicks to close and have just deleted the game. Some of the games are also frustrating with zero prizes even having completed it with a score of 6. In other games I can have 6 on the bar, but lose all of it finding the last 1 or 2 objects. The morphing level drove me crazy, because it isn’t morphing, it’s disappearing and is impossible to get a high score on. Oh well, it was enjoyable for a while, so goodbye and thanks for all the fish. ### 4/5 — Enjoyable, but has it been abandoned? *2023-08-24, version 1.0.33* I quite enjoyed this hidden object game. It had an amusing storyline and it kept adding locations and scenes to explore. Some of the puzzles are rather challenging, but still quite playable overall. However, I have not seen an update to the in-game story since Chapter XV, The Leaning Tower. What’s happened, Nordcurrent? ### 3/5 — Non playing adverts *2023-08-05, version 1.0.33* To get extra time, one is supposed to watch adverts. I just get a blank screen and when I get fed up I click close and that’s when the ad pops up. Frustrated that I cannot get extra time to play because of this. Pictures are very dark and make it difficult to find objects. I actually like the game, but just find it so frustrating that I cannot play it very often as I run out of the energy very quickly. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Time Guardians *2026-07-11, version 1.0.33* 🚨Attention 🚨 Time guardian game does not appear on my screen but in the App store it is still active, I want to delete the game but can’t because it’s not on my screen anymore, what can i do to delete your game ? ### 1/5 — What the heck ! Time Guardians *2025-11-22, version 1.0.33* I downloaded this app months ago I thought I deleted it but apparently not, I can go to the app store open it and play it still, it doesn’t appear on my home screen with the rest of my apps I want to delete it but there is NO WAY to do so that I see I searched all. Through my settings menu and no luck, my advice do not make an app you can’t delete it’s not only time consuming to search it out but also worry-some ### 1/5 — Good advice retrospectively *2024-11-05, version 1.0.33* Don’t waste your time. Have found out that Nordcurrent no longer support this game. Don’t know why it is still in the App Store. Especially since Nordcurrent still accept “in App purchases”. Why pay for something no longer supported? ### 1/5 — 日本語対応しましょう *2024-04-20* アルプスなどからおすすめされても 日本語では遊べません しかも二年更新もされてません ついでに 物が小さいのでスマホ向きではありません😝 ### 1/5 — Quite fun *2024-03-29, version 1.0.33* I am enjoying the game, even though I’m not sure what the actual story is. If you don’t want to spend money, you just have to wait. Don’t like waiting, spend money! Updated review. Like many others, my game has now permanently crashed and since I don’t have Facebook I don’t suppose I will be able to get back in at the level I was, 26. So I have decided to delete the game as I’m not going to start again from the beginning. Shame. Now don’t seem able to even update my review. Oh well. ### 1/5 — Dumb *2024-03-10, version 1.0.33* Really dumb. A bunch of morons to take your money. ### 1/5 — If you like watching adverts this is the game for you. *2024-02-28, version 1.0.33* You are forced to watch adverts for other games after every round . Why bother there are plenty of games where you do not have to waste 60% of your playing time . ### 1/5 — No support. Expensive. Zero care *2023-07-10, version 1.0.33* I never give feedback and especially the negative ones but here is my exception. The game is OK. The only one I ever spend any money on. What a mistake. Zero support and no response from the developer when the game crashes. Gave them a chance on many occasions and waited patiently to hear any response. Other games at least give you points, energy etc back when that happens. Not here. Zero interest. Don’t waste your time and especially money. Very disappointed. ### 1/5 — Game rate *2023-04-06, version 1.0.33* I just started this game but I really like it ### 1/5 — Pointless tasks, time wasting game. *2023-03-10* After playing this game for a long long time, have found the game is pointless. The storyline eventually peters out and there is no justification for doing repeated searches. The game just strings you on to keep you occupied but you get no closer to reaching any sort of goal, if there is any goal at all because there is no storyline anymore. After the hours wasted on this game it’s a wonder I haven’t deleted it already. I am a poofteenth away from doing just that - deleting the game! Do yourselves a favour - don’t even start! Wouldn’t be surprised if this review disappears, never to be seen by anyone else. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Support non response *2026-07-30, version 1.0.33* I have purchased every gem except for the largest package, you take the money and then it says purchase pending and nothing ever happens. If that isn’t a total ripoff I don’t know what is! ### 5/5 — 9.5/10 *2026-03-06, version 1.0.33* I really love this game. I’ve been playing it for a while now and enjoy the variety of puzzles. I’m a little disappointed that I’ve apparently finished the overall story, but the special events somewhat make up for it. My only complaint is the lack of helps available for the Collectors League, the Navigator’s College, and the Astrology Museum. The only help available is extra time, but mostly I just end up using gems to finish, because they’re so difficult. Hints would be very useful. I initially used the hints in the Fisherman’s Guild, but now I don’t need to. ### 5/5 — Fun, faster energy *2025-03-18, version 1.0.33* This game is a little different than the other hidden object game I’ve tried. There are less items, and a timer count down. However, the energy also recharges a lot faster in this game. Plus, I love time travel ### 5/5 — Très bien *2024-12-05* Génial ce jeu,les graphismes sont très beaux et les enquêtes très facile a faire,merci aux concepteurs ### 5/5 — Good Hidden Image game *2024-11-14, version 1.0.33* Replaying the game helps ### 5/5 — 求支持中文啊 *2024-10-11, version 1.0.33* 为什么没有中文版 ### 5/5 — Time Guardians *2024-08-20* Bisher keine Abstürze. Stand Level 5. Finde das Spiel super. Gute Mischung von Abenteuer und Wimmel. Grafik ist super mit viel Liebe für das Detail. Überraschende Wendungen in der Dramaturgie lassen es nicht langweilig werden. Mehr davon 😀😀 ### 5/5 — sehr schlecht *2023-06-28* Ich schreibe ja nur ungern schlechte Rezensionen, aber diese App ist einfach schlecht. So viele Abstürze, das macht keinen Spaß. Ok, sie ist mit Werbung kostenlos, aber da erwarte ich auch das nach der Werbung alles weitergeht und nicht das ganze Spiel eingefroren ist. Immer wieder neu anmelden und die Spiele von vorne beginnen ist unzumutbar! Ich habe jetzt versucht die Rezension (mit nur einem Stern)mit meinem Namen abzuschicken, wurde immer abgelehnt. Jetzt mit 5 Sternen klappt das!! Komisch oder??? ### 5/5 — Nothing lighting up *2022-10-16, version 1.0.33* Been playing this game for quite a while now. Had to start again a few times cos it kept freezing. Not sure what has happened this time. It’s not letting me press any of the side or bottom things( book trophy and more). They don’t seem to be lighting up. I’ve deleted it to see if they come back but still nothing. Please can you try and solve it for me. Gutted. Can you try and solve the situation for me please. ### 5/5 — Enjoying the game *2022-08-07, version 1.0.33* I really enjoy this game. Each one I think uses to much energy, and it is used up very quickly, but it is a really enjoyable, relaxing game. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
