### 3/5 — Нужно обновление

*2025-03-31*

Обновите пожалуйста игру, статус бар с часами и сетью не пропадает, долгие загрузки с черным экраном и что бы регистрировали трофеи нужно вручную входить в профиль в игре. Ну и по геймплею можно сделать чуть отзывчивей управление, но не критично. Прошел на PS4 и Вите на релизе, и вот купил на телефон спустя 10 лет поностальгировать

### 3/5 — No screen size support for iPhone X

*2019-12-31*

No updates for 3+ years is not a good sign for potential new buyer. This is great game you got there so please update it so we can enjoy it in full screen on 2017 devices and up.

### 4/5 — Tres bon jeu

*2018-04-30*

Le jeu est aussi en français...ce n’est pas indiqué...ça prend un bon sens de l’orientation pour se retrouver...en tout cas c’est un bon exercice pour retrouver son chemin....

### 2/5 — Fun but crashes a lot

*2017-01-02*

Game crashed every couple minutes... So disappointing as I found it fun when it worked.

### 3/5 — Campy but kinda fun

*2016-12-28*

The story is campy but it's kind fun. Where it lost me was when it introduced reaction-time situations. I prefer pure puzzling and adventure, not dodgem. So I decided not to finish this. Let me know if Elena saves her dad, k?

### 4/5 — Legalzinho

*2016-11-25*

A idéia do jogo é boa, mas as vezes a gente se perde, de tantas portas e lugares pra ir... mas de resto tá bom. Já aviso, o jogo é focado no enredo, então terá muitaaaa leitura... nota 10 pela tradução ao português-br.

### 3/5 — Вылетает

*2016-11-08*

Игра супер, но на IPad Mini начало вылетать, когда открыла дверь в правую часть дома, поднявшись по лестнице. Исправьте поскорее, пожалуйста, очень нравится игра и хочется продолжить!

### 2/5 — Keeps crashing

*2016-11-02*

Seems to be a good game so far, but whenever I try to enter the mansion it crashes, so I can't progress any further.

### 4/5 — 무서워서 죽는 줄 알았습니다

*2016-11-01*

깜짝 놀라면서 했어요 한글화 된다면 다시 해보고 싶네요 영어라 잘 이해 못했어요

### 2/5 — Awesome, except for the crash

*2016-10-31, version 1.40*

This game seemed to be everything I wanted out of it, until I got hooked, and the story line was fun. Then as soon as I get to go into the mansion, it crashes. Every time

### 3/5 — Crashed but big potential

*2016-10-31*

Got to level 2 on my iPad mini 1. But the game crashed which is a big disappointment because it looks like a fantastic game.

Can recommend to anyone on better devices than mine!

Great support from developers. I wish them luck!

### 3/5 — Enjoyable but too short

*2016-10-31*

The game was enjoyable but I was able to finish it in 3 hours. The puzzles are from easy-midium levels, nothing that makes you think really hard. The games requires a lot of reading (you don't have to read it all to finish the game though) so if your phone is small, your eyes might have to do a lot of work. The last challenge was too easy which was disappointing. And storytelling was rather simple. Overall, I enjoyed the game but wish it was more complicated.

### 4/5 — Great Creepy Feel of a Game

*2016-10-30, version 1.40*

Just in time for Halloween - a great side scrolling adventure game that gives you a sort of Danny Phantom vibe.

Switch between Spirit form to Human form is very appealing and nice to new take on a gaming idea

Love it

### 3/5 — Good but.....

*2016-10-30, version 1.40*

The game had really good graphics and all, but when I got to chapter 2 my iPod kept on kicking me out of the game and than it made it crash and I needed to restart my iPod! Plz fix this

### 5/5 — Tres bon jeu

*2016-10-28*

Très bon jeu, avec une bonne durée de vie. Pas déçue par cet achat!!

### 5/5 — 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

### 1/5 — Черный экран

*2019-12-18*

Черный экран при загрузке - вот и вся игра. Разработчики либо лентяи, либо мошенники.

### 1/5 — В ступоре

*2017-11-22*

Игра платная. 
Купила.
Деньги с карты ушли.
Не загружается на iPad.
Не знаю, больше я сейчас зла или расстроена.
Посоветуйте, что делать.
Заранее спасибо.

### 1/5 — Bello o brutto? A saperlo.

*2016-11-06, version 1.41*

Acquistato con soldi reali! (Non molti, a dire il vero). IMPOSSIBILE GIOCARE CRASH...CRASH E ANCORA CRASCH! Se leggete, fate qualcosa!

### 1/5 — Won't start

*2016-10-29*

After the starting credits the game closes, so the game is unable to start. Hopefully will be fixed in the next update.

### 1/5 — Please fix

*2015-09-18*

Could really enjoy this but stuck in mansion and keeps ending game when I try and go through a door GRRRRRRRRR

### 1/5 — Fairly uninteresting

*2015-09-13*

Walked for half an hour in identically-looking corridors, then was killed by some creature after finding crescent key. No idea how to deal with it, and, frankly, at this point I don't really care.

Controls are very bad. Why on Earth should they disappear after you stop using them for a second? And what genius decided that joystick is a best interface for walking left and right?

### 1/5 — Sadly Wasted Money.

*2015-09-08*

Sounds like it should be a great game. Too bad you can't really play it because it perpetually crashes. Glad I bought this award winning virtual paperweight at "50% off" because it will never have any other use. Perhaps, the developers will do right by consumers and fix it. Otherwise your purchase will be a donation to them just like mine.

### 1/5 — Odd

*2015-09-03*

I find the "Joystick" very odd to move around.
The game collapses every time I walk down a new passage and it autosaves.
Graphics and music are really lovely, but I feel like I have wasted my money here.

### 1/5 — Game crashes iPhone 4

*2015-09-01*

Every time I get to the door one level up from the pulley system in the catacombs the game crashes and exits.  I am not impressed considering I spent $5 for an unplayable game.

### 1/5 — Tres mauvais portage

*2015-08-31*

Une croix directionnelle énorme a gauche, 4 boutons plus gros que votre pouce à droite : déjà c'est degueulasse.
Les textes dans les bulles dépassent l'écran donc on ne peut pas tout lire.
Apres le jeu en lui même n'est pas super intéressant, le personnage est lent, les déplacements en fantôme sont mous et approximatifs, l'histoire n'est pas folle, on fait peut de chose au final ... Ma femme l'a teste et l'a trouve tout aussi mauvais alors qu'elle aime bien ce genre de jeu en général ...
Bref, jeu médiocre.

### 5/5 — Beautiful story

*2018-04-15*

Well done !  An immersive and beautiful story .  Lots of gameplay.  Puzzles add to the story.  Walkthrough not needed.   I truly hope the developers of Whispering Willows are working on other high quality games ....

*2016-11-02*

It was fun to watch this story unfold.  The gameplay is simple but the point is to piece together and solve the mystery.  Well done.
