### 3/5 — 1 flaw

*2026-07-11*

Game is so fun but you can’t save your progress at all so if you lose connection or even exit the app for a moment you lose all of your progress and have to start over. So frustrating after spending so much time and then losing it all

### 5/5 — phenomenal.

*2026-01-03*

my friend and i played this after we played the other game from the same developer. i loved this so much , constant communication is needed. recommend for anyone liking puzzles!

### 5/5 — Muito bom

### 2/5 — Server not connecting

*2025-05-30*

Constantly disconnecting one or other player

### 4/5 — Super bon jeu sauf pour la fin…

*2025-05-25*

Une des énigmes nous donne une information cruciale sur le dénouement mais ça n’a pas été pris en compte dans la manière dont est tourné la fin. C’est dommage qu’en tant que joueur on comprend quelque chose qui surprend les détectives à la fin alors qu’ils sont sensés avoir eu les mêmes infos que nous (je fais de mon mieux pour le pas spoiler de quoi je parle pour les futurs joueurs ahah). Sinon, c’était vraiment super ! Merci beaucoup pour cette expérience digne d’un escape game

### 4/5 — Super et dommage

*2025-05-25*

Super jeu ! Dommage qu’on puisse deviner la fin grâce à une énigme qui nous montre clairement ce qui se passe, mais que les détectives dans le jeu ne captent rien.

### 4/5 — So good but expected it to be longer!

*2025-03-15*

Beautiful game very interesting but too short

### 5/5 — Fun and interactive

*2025-02-18*

Super great! Loved all the puzzle details, I wish the clues were more reactive to where we are in the game.

### 5/5 — Dimension Issues for iPad

*2025-01-29*

Me and a friend have been trying to solve this game but discovered there are some dimension issues with the game. We are both playing on iPad Pros but often the visuals and texts are stretching off the sides of the screen. We have been unable to see certain letters because they were off-screen, and therefore have been unable to solve some of the puzzles.

Please help! It’s a very enjoyable game otherwise :)

### 5/5 — Super fun with a partner

*2025-01-28*

Really fun and thought out escape room type game. Enjoyed every second.

### 1/5 — The game was too short

*2026-02-27*

It wasnt worth it tbh they shouldve added other levels

### 1/5 — Does not let friend join

*2025-12-12*

Friend cannot connect. 0/5 for failing to play.

### 1/5 — Keeps disconnecting

*2025-10-20*

The server keeps disconnecting at the same stage very disappointing

### 1/5 — lame

*2025-06-30*

too short.

### 1/5 — INADMISSIBLE

*2025-01-28*

ON A PAYÉ ET ÇA NOUS QUITTE EN PLEINE PARTIE RENDEZ MOI MES 3 euros on était sur le point de conclure l’énigme. Ce n’était pas la première fois que la partie était interrompue, nous avons gardé notre calme pour que finalement le bug se reproduis. Je suis déçu.

### 1/5 — Beaucoup trop court

*2024-09-19*

Jeux trop court, a peine 5 niveaux faits en moins d’une heure…

### 1/5 — Did Not Function

*2024-07-30*

Very first puzzle did not work. Word you were supposed to be rearranging was already correctly spelled and would not let us do anything and therefore we couldn’t advance past the first step of the game.

**Developer response:** Hi, the first puzzle is actually the walkie-talkie. After you solve it the WELCOME letters rearrange and the puzzle starts. Sorry we didn't make it clearer.

### 1/5 — THE GAME DOES NOT WORK! Do not download

*2024-04-10*

I paid for the game and it refuses to connect to the server!

### 1/5 — Can i get a refund

*2024-01-14*

I accidentally purchased, because my phone lagged and didn’t show the price before scanning my face. PLEASE!!’nnnn

### 2/5 — Verbindung bricht immer ab

*2026-06-29*

Ich finde das Spielkonzept wirklich toll aber die Verbindung bricht immer ab. Ich habe das erste Level jetzt schon 10 mal gespielt aber weiter komm ich einfach nicht, weil die Verbindung abbricht und sich auch nicht neu verbindet, sondern einfach das Spiel von vorne anfängt. 
Sehr schade.

### 5/5 — Should I stay with her?

### 5/5 — Ótimo pra jogar em casal

*2026-08-02*

Ótimo pra jogar em casal

### 5/5 — the best and worst bonding experience lol

*2026-07-23*

first of all whoever said this game is too short must be sheldon cooper. this game took me and my friends 3 hours to complete lol. was so much fun and included a lot of yelling at each other. we did run into a bug on the first level with the notes, both of our papers said poland on them so we had to search up the answer. other than that it was amazing and we can’t wait to play the next level!!!

### 5/5 — Good game, good puzzles

*2026-06-02*

Loved it as a long distance couple

### 5/5 — 5 estrelas!

*2026-05-24*

Simplesmente incrível, muito legal de jogar em dupla! Poucos jogos são tão legais assim e bem feitos! amei o jogo inteiro, os gráficos e jogos dentro de cada!

### 5/5 — JOGAO

*2026-05-03*

muito difícil um jogo mobile ser tao bom e tao divertido

### 5/5 — Muito bom

*2026-05-02*

Joguei com a minha namorada e realmente é muito divertido. Recomendo.

### 5/5 — Sehr gelungenes Spiel

*2026-03-07*

Ich finde die Aufgaben hatten die perfekte Schwierigkeit. Nicht zu leicht aber auch nicht zu schwer. Und wenn es mal doch nicht klappt kann man ohne Probleme einen Tipp einfordern. Hat sehr viel Spaß gemacht das Spiel zu spielen, kann ich nur jedem empfehlen (vor allem Paaren mit dem Thema Kommunikation ;))

### 5/5 — So much fun

*2026-02-23*

Just loved it and loved the details and animation and storytelling

### 5/5 — HIGHLY RECOMMEND

*2026-02-08*

I play lots of escape room apps both solo and co-op and this is easily one of the best! It was definitely challenging but in the best way. No hints needed, just thought and time. Everything felt totally logical. I cannot recommend this game enough. It has set a high bar for future games I play. I wish they made more games. I would have paid triple for this game and still felt like I got a great value. Thanks for making an amazing game!
