### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2026-04-18, version 6.1*

Scenes are too dark. Very difficult to see shapes and items.

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2021-05-25, version 6.1*

Finally a game that’s easy to play, no time limit and hints when you need them

### 4/5 — I like it and it is not too expensive

*2021-04-20, version 6.1*

Love it

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2020-10-09, version 6.1*

Actual challenge and no ads!

### 5/5 — No ads, difficult levels

*2020-09-14, version 6.1*

I’ve been experimenting with these hidden objects games for a few months and this is the first game I’ve found that I can play all I want for FREE!  You can buy hints if you want, but you can get free ones, it depends how competitive you are.  I just started this game and it’s not too easy which I love and even have puzzles along the way.  The other games I after a week or two as it got harder, you couldn’t move on or sometimes not even able to play until you spent money, that’s when I would delete, others that were free were boring and way too easy for my taste.  The pictures here are not easy,  I’ll be playing this game from now on.

### 4/5 — You can actually follow how to play!

*2020-08-17, version 6.1*

I’m sick of the games where you almost always have to go to some website to have the game explained. I’ve bought several over the years, and deleted most of them. Such a pain, and no fun. This game keeps you moving along with hints when you need them, and no dead ends (so far).It does end abruptly, which is unfortunate. But the visuals, the sound effects, and the challenging hidden objects make it worth a few dollars.  I recommend it.

### 4/5 — Intriguing Game

*2020-06-17, version 6.1*

Great story line and good scenes. A nice mix of ho scenes and puzzles. I agree with the person who wrote that it would help if the scenes were lighter. Also it is frustrating to be sent back to the same scene over and over again.

### 4/5 — Too short...

*2020-05-16, version 6.1*

Would like the game to be longer, finished in about 2 hours, using no hints.

### 5/5 — Good challenging game

*2020-05-11, version 6.1*

Just the right amount of easy to very hard things to find and with a hints if you are truly stuck. Nice detailed art work.

### 2/5 — Dull

*2020-04-19, version 6.1*

Some scenes too dark too see properly, dull game to play

### 2/5 — Too Dark

*2020-04-05, version 6.1*

I enjoy this game but it’s really just too dark to find the hidden objects

### 5/5 — I Was Blown Away!!

*2020-03-18, version 6.1*

If you like hidden object games this is THE one to buy. It is an artistic masterpiece that I thoroughly enjoyed playing. My compliments to the developers for your commitment to excellence and attention to detail. Highly recommended!!

### 5/5 — Looks and plays great

*2020-02-10, version 6.1*

Great value!

### 5/5 — Awesome Game!

Enjoy the hunt very much and the great layout 👍

### 5/5 — Fun Game

*2019-12-22, version 6.1*

I love it!!!

### 4/5 — So far, so good.

*2019-11-11, version 6.1*

The piccy in the second scene alone was worth playing the game.  Still trying to figure out what it triggered in my memory.  Musix not bad either.  Atmospheric thot provoking scenes.

‘ Like.’

### 1/5 — Boring

*2026-02-26, version 6.1*

Some difficulties finding hidden objects because too dark, poor storyline

### 1/5 — Game?

*2018-02-06, version 6.1*

This is dull. Waste of money, don’t bother! Zero*

### 1/5 — Time trap

*2017-09-02, version 6.1*

First of all you should learn to write English before you sell an app here in America.  It was very difficult to understand the words in the dialog boxes. What you called a machete was in fact a meat cleaver and what you called a coil was in fact a spool.  There were many other items that you got the names wrong for.  Graphics were only mediocre.  Very short game.

### 1/5 — Mediocre

*2017-07-10, version 6.1*

Not very good. First there is little plot. You start then it guides you from place to place. At each you have a bunch of things to find. Ok, I understand, its a hidden object game, but really the genre has grown beyond that. The puzzles you encounter are so simple as to barely qualify. There's no finding items to use elsewhere. You don't even get to chose how you progress, it tells you where to go. But I persevered and reached the end only to find it doesn't really end so much as stop. Going from place to place then it just said "Congratulations. You followed the guys path and got trapped just like he did." Boom end. You have the option of going back to each location and finding more things to raise your score. But what's the point?

### 1/5 — Annoying pop ups

*2017-06-11, version 6.1*

Jarring frequent pop ups that are loud and have 5 second timers.  This ruins game play.  I am deleting Time Trap.  Don't waste your storage.

### 1/5 — Zoom too small

*2016-06-13, version 6.0*

Screen too small and dark

### 1/5 — Still has same problem

*2015-07-29, version 5.0*

I am also stuck on a level that I see was reported in May 2014. 2 bottles in the scene, neither one is correct, press the hint button and nothing happens. Paid for this and very disappointed, don't bother downloading unless they fix it but I don't hold out much hope as this was originally reported in 2014

### 1/5 — Please fix

*2015-06-25, version 5.0*

Why is this game not uploading?
This problem has still not been rectified and it's been nearly 2 weeks. U can't take the money and not care surely......

### 1/5 — Time trap, hidden objects

*2015-01-11, version 5.0*

Waste of energy. Dumb game. Do not spend money on it.

### 1/5 — Badly designed.

*2014-11-10, version 5.0*

The sound effect when you collect an item is horrific.

I hit my first puzzle - and get getting penalised. There were no clear instructions on how to interact with the wires. Basically presented with a puzzle the penalises you every time you touch it. Lacks feedback.

I stopped at this point. This game lacks polish. Even the written story text was clunky.

Please improve the user experience!

### 5/5 — super grafik super sound tolles spiel

*2025-11-04*

gerade für die langen winterabende super geeignet

### 5/5 — More please

*2025-09-11, version 6.1*

I love the music, the artwork, the dark theme and that it's almost all HO scenes.  IWILL BUY ALL YOU MAKE OF THIS TONE AND QUALITY

### 5/5 — Time Trap

*2024-08-18, version 6.1*

Very cool game, loving the post apocalyptic atmosphere and surroundings. The graphics are clear and sharp. It’s an awesome hidden objects game and I’ve looked at many of them available and this is just what I was looking for, I’m glad that I found it and downloaded it. It’s a quality, well done project.

### 5/5 — Tolles Spiel

*2023-07-21*

Und ohne Werbung 👍

Gibt es eine Fortsetzung?

### 5/5 — So toll

*2023-07-13*

Solche Spiele liebe ich, man kann super neue Gedanken sortieren
und seinen Kopf frei bekommen.
Ein Spiel das richtig Spaß macht!

### 5/5 — Doesn’t get stale

*2023-03-29, version 6.1*

I’ve been playing this for years. I take a break from it for awhile, then go back, and it’s still challenging enough.
As others have pointed out, some things are mis-named. 
New HO games that I’ve looked at are either too easy, have too much story line, or have too many ads. (Yes, I like my HO games to have minimal storylines.)
Spookiness also keeps things interesting.

### 5/5 — Different

*2022-04-26, version 6.1*

I like this game because it is different and makes you think.

### 5/5 — Good and challenging

*2022-03-21, version 6.1*

The HOs are very tough,story line good,graphics are well done.

### 5/5 — Love this game

*2021-07-15, version 6.1*

I absolutely love this game.  I’ve completed it once some years ago and having memory problems means that it not only helps me but I can’t remember where anything is lol.  If you like apocalyptic scenarios this is the game for you, plus the background music fits perfectly.  Don’t give up cause you have as long as you want to find the objects, unlike most games that time you out.

### 5/5 — Great hidden object game

*2021-06-22, version 6.1*

Good game, lots of objects to find, interesting story and good value for money, well worth it.
