The graphics, history and animation are top tier and everything feels insanely polished and well executed! Loved it ### 5/5 — tuyệt vời *2025-10-16, version 1.10.44* Chơi trong 2 ngày bị ốm và hoàn thành các màn. Cốt truyện hay, thú vị kiểu xuyên không. Cám ơn rất nhiều đội ngũ sản xuất gamehouse đã cho ra những sản phẩm giúp mình có nhiều trải nghiệm thích thú khi chơi . Game điện thoại chắc mình chỉ chơi được các game của nhà gamehouse sản xuất. 😆🩷❤️ ### 4/5 — PARTE 2 *2025-07-12, version 1.10.44* espero que tenha continuação…🥺 ### 4/5 — Quality but incomplete *2025-06-25, version 1.10.44* The graphics, the animation a lot of it is SO GOOD; game is really immersive and it makes watching the ads worth it but the abrupt and incomplete ending takes the user experience out of it. I think, like the excavators in the game, the people working on this game deserve more funding/time to make the sequel. One of, if not my favourite game out of gamehouse ### 5/5 — 스토리 엔딩? *2025-03-05, version 1.10.44* 마지막 내용이 이게 맞는건가요?? 이야기가 마지막에 너무 허무해요 ### 1/5 — Good game pity it’s so buggy *2025-01-28, version 1.10.44* I was enjoying this game. I paid for a monthly subscription to Gamehouse to play the whole thing. This however failed to cancel ads. I did everything the troubleshooting guide recommended. Everything was connected and approved. I even deleted and reloaded my original game. However now it won’t let me even play on to the second gate at all. Disappointing, I shall be asking for a refund. ## Frequently asked questions about Unsung Heroes ### What is Unsung Heroes: The Golden Mask about?
