Do not buy

One of the worst games I ever played. I cannot figure it out even after reading the official walkthrough.

need walkthrough

i am stuck and i’ve looked at what you guys have on your website as hints but it’s just not helping i love the game and love to finish it but can’t

Don’t know what some of these reviewers are talking about…

This game was a gem! All of the puzzles were solvable with the clues in the game, they just took a little thought. I think that’s a good thing! I also liked that several puzzles were kind of “open” at the same time, so you could make some progress on a puzzle, do some work somewhere else, and come back to the first puzzle once an idea clicked. I hope this developer makes more games and I’ll be checking back to see if they do!

A really good game

I just replayed this after a couple of years and was happily surprised to see how well it holds up. The puzzles are challenging and interesting and tricky - the best kind imo. I def needed a couple of hints and the hint guide on the website is great. It gives you a little nudge at a time so no spoilers. Overall a well-made, very enjoyable game. It’s amazing that it’s basically a one man production. Well done, dev! I hope you make more!

Locked Upstairs Rooms

Cannot figure out how to get into the 2 locked rooms upstairs? Can get into the closet.

Great puzzle game

Good graphics, great mix of puzzles, largely intuitive controls. Really enjoyed it. Could have done with the expanding the story a bit but would look forward to another if there is one.

Loved it

Nice assortment of puzzles. Helpful messages. Not overdone.

Great puzzles

This game has absolutely excellent puzzles, really different to others out there. Fantastic, loved it. More please!

Super!

Eines der schwereren Spiele :-) Macht Spaß und lohnt sich!

Decent game

No fancy graphics here, but some of my favourite puzzle games are exactly like that and it is absolutely not necessary. There are not many easy puzzles here and so prepared to be challenged! Nothing ridiculously difficult, but nothing is handed on a plate to you either. The one criticism I would have is the controls are not intuitive. I kept finding myself pressing the wrong ones and I think they could be made to work much better. It could just be me of course, but I think with a little tweaking it could be made to work much better.

Really great when’s the next one coming out?

Really enjoyed this, puzzles just hard enough and fun to play.

Please make a follow up!

Clunky and missing some key play support

Ok. So in essence this is a pretty game. Crisp graphics and quite real looking structures.

For the price, I found it a disappointment.

I’ve played most of the games like this and there are some key play support tools that are required in this game, otherwise you need a notebook and pen which then takes away the “mobile” playability.

For instance, if this game had a snapshot function, such as in forever lost, you could get to the puzzles without having to keep opening your very clunky inventory over and over again.

The fact that there isn’t a select and drag function on inventory items makes it a poor playing experience.

A sketch function would also enhance this game.

All in all, shows promise but when you are paying more for an app than the room or da Vinci code etc, you expect similar, if not better in game experiences.

What did I miss?

Game was okay. Puzzles were interesting. But the game ends abruptly and you never find out What lies underground. There is literally no point and no resolution.

Loved this

Great game! Was very sorry when it was over. Really nice graphics, challenging puzzles and a very helpful hint website. More please!

Cool but too difficult

Amazing game but for the most part couldn’t figure out the puzzles ...maybe if I spent more time but don’t have that

What a let down

I want my money back. Waaayyyy too short, mediocre gameplay and look, several puzzles unsolvable without a hint (which developer admits), and too top it off the end is basically a cliffhanger with no answers. You end up underground but never find out ‘what lies there’. Not worth paying at all

Great fun

Really playable. Loved the graphics and the puzzles weren't the hardest to figure out, but saying that I did use walkthroughs a couple of times 🤔. Looking forward to the next episode

Excellent game

Good gameplay great graphics and the puzzles made sense. Bit of humour thrown in for good measure. Recommend

It’s a keeper

Normally I trash games after I finish them. This one, though, I’m keeping in hopes that there will be new levels.
Please?

What Lies Underground?

I'm so confused. I was really hoping to an answer to the question. Is there an episode 2?
