### 5/5 — Détective

*2026-04-24*

Trop bien

### 4/5 — Gut

*2026-02-12*

Ich suche schon seit längerem eine App des Spiels black Stories. Da es solche nicht gibt, habe ich mir diese App auf Empfehlung von ChatGPT heruntergeladen. Ich bin der Meinung das diese App sehr gut ist. Ich finde es nur schade dass man so wenige Rätsel machen kann ohne das Abo, weil mir es nichts taugt, ein Abo in einer App zu haben, habe ich das halt nicht aber im Großen und Ganzen ist die App sehr gut. Man kann Solo spielen und als Gruppe ich habe bisher nur Solo ausgetestet, weil ich alleine war. Aber es ist eigentlich nicht schlecht, stellst Fragen über ein Mikrofon oder kannst auch Text eingeben und dann antworte dir KI das ist gut. Es sind auch gute Geschichten dabei.

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank für dein tolles Feedback!

Bitte schreibe uns eine kurze E-Mail an tic.stack.help@gmail.com und wir senden dir gerne einen Promo-Code zu, damit du den vollen Zugriff auf alle Rätsel genießen kannst.

Viel Spaß weiterhin beim Rätseln!

### 5/5 — perfect for playing in a cozy company
