### 1/5 — Level 2 is hard

*2020-07-20, version 1.0*

Level two I hard help with level 2

### 1/5 — Puzzles make no sense

*2020-05-22, version 1.0*

As mentioned above, puzzles make no sense. Pretty much have to pay to get hints. Like trying to guess what number I’m thinking or what’s my favorite food. Impossible to understand what their puzzles are implying.  Forget this one

### 3/5 — Good game, but doesn’t always make sense!

*2020-04-08, version 1.0*

Am stuck on level 14 — have tried everything I can think of to figure out the star puzzle.  And the hint is useless!  Any one have any suggestions?  This is not for people who are logical, because most of the puzzles are anything but that!

### 5/5 — Like it

*2019-12-19, version 1.0*

I like this game

### 3/5 — Challenge

*2019-10-07, version 1.0*

A little challenging but good game

### 4/5 — Challenging

*2019-02-01, version 1.0*

Difficult but still a great deal of fun!

### 1/5 — Makes no sense

*2018-06-25, version 1.0*

I play a lot of escape games and this one makes no sense. A few of the clues work but then with others they have no rhyme or reason. Had to delete it after the 3rd room.

### 2/5 — Stuck on level 3

*2018-04-26, version 1.0*

I can not get past level 3. What’s with the robot on the floor? How do I run the projector on? What’s the code to the button door? Please help!

### 4/5 — Level 10

*2018-02-22, version 1.0*

There is a game on the bar...it’s a nonogram...google it to know how to solve it!

### 1/5 — Annoying

*2018-02-15, version 1.0*

Be prepared to have ads at random moments when trying to solve the puzzles. It's one thing to have had between levels or before hints but when you're trying to work on a puzzle, it's annoying and takes the fun out of the game.
