It’s very frustrating and if there is something I’m missing that will allow the game to save would someone please tell me how. ### 4/5 — Amazing but… *2023-11-21, version 3.0.5* You have to play and there’s a bunch more levels definitely worth the dollar. ### 4/5 — It’s fun but *2023-04-05, version 3.0.3* It’s fun but so easy and after level 7 you have to pay that is just stupid ### 4/5 — What *2023-03-19, version 2.0* It's super fun to level eight till you have to buy the bonus levels so if you have an older phone you could buy this but if you have a new phone by the other ones ### 5/5 — The best ever *2023-02-16, version 2.0* The best escape ### 4/5 — Good *2023-01-12, version 3.0.3* It what let go on the next room it make my watch a add every time but is a good game over all ### 3/5 — Nope *2022-06-25, version 2.0* This game is fun but you have to pay on level 8 and it is a bit to difficult. Would recommend, if you want to pay 0.99 just to do the rest of the levels. ### 5/5 — Fun so far *2022-06-17, version 2.0* I’ll update if it goes downhill ### 3/5 — ehhhh *2022-06-10, version 2.0* ok so i was playing and minding my own business, ben i came 2 level seven. i found all the tools and everything, typed in the right code, and when i did, nothing happened. no key, no card no nothing. i think i did it right. plz tell me if i did. idk if this is a glitch or anything, but it’s surely bugging me. thx 4 reading this. 🤔🤷‍♀️ ### 5/5 — Oh I love this game *2022-05-01, version 2.0* That’s always fun escaping places on EyeLove hole it has calls I was hard and then I just realize I have to put things together to make them a real actual thing then I realized that I was the one who is not doing everything right so then I was good at it and I never ever ever ever ever got it wrong ### 4/5 — It is OK *2022-04-16, version 2.0* Great till level 8. Mine just froze so I will never know why is there ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Unable to evaluate *2025-07-24, version 3.0.5* Although the game is great, the Google ad at the bottom of the banner keeps playing a vicious face. I can't turn it off no matter what I do, so I have to uninstall the game. ### 1/5 — 😭😭😭😭😭 *2023-02-21, version 3.0.3* I used to play it every day (with one more minute) but the day you must escape 2 came out….. it just stoped working.🤬please fix this game 🤬 anyway it’s a good game ### 1/5 — Can’t play *2023-01-26, version 3.0.3* I used to play this game a lot when I was little, but I can’t even start the first level now. I can open the app but can’t press anything, only the ad click works. And in You Must Escape 2, I can’t enter level 10. I went to see if I could purchase the next few rooms and there seemed to be no working links that go directly to it. When will there be another update? ### 1/5 — Not worth it *2022-07-21, version 3.0.3* Lame who has to buy levels anymore just make me watch an ad that’s so dumb it’s a fun app but why ### 1/5 — i was hooked until level 8 *2022-06-09, version 2.0* u only get 8 levels free. that’s not fun at all!! tip for the creators: add more free levels and u can get more downloads! i’m so disappointed with this game! ### 1/5 — Rip Off *2022-05-21, version 2.0* Played the game. Had to restart my phone a couple of times because it froze on some levels. Even purchased all the other half of the game then I got to the last level and it won’t open. I paid for and got ripped off. Waste of money and time. ### 1/5 — Nope *2022-04-20, version 2.0* Took about 10 minutes to do them all then gotta pay for levels ### 1/5 — You can’t escape lvl 7 *2022-04-04, version 2.0* I trued escaping level 7 but I could not. I put the correct case in but it would not open the box I even looked at a YouTube video and it does not work. ### 1/5 — Multiple bugs *2022-02-26, version 2.0* After I completed level 8 the game freezes and level 3 it did the same thing. ### 1/5 — TERRIBLE DONT GET *2021-09-20, version 2.0* I was so bored when I was on a car trip and when I got this game I expected to be able to play the whole game, BUT NO, I ONLY GOT TO THE 8th LEVEL AND I HAD TO PAY TO GO ON! THIS GAME IS SUCH A SCAM. DO 👏🏻 NOT 👏🏻 GET 👏🏻 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Nostalgic *2025-10-13, version 3.0.5* Amazing ### 5/5 — O *2025-08-21, version 3.0.5* 0 ### 5/5 — Great fun *2025-08-09, version 3.0.5* All ages and abilities ### 5/5 — Great game *2024-12-25, version 3.0.5* Loved it!!! Fun challenging but not too ### 5/5 — Nostalgia *2024-07-25, version 3.0.5* I missed this game ### 5/5 — nostalgic *2024-06-20, version 3.0.5* played it a lot on my moms iphone when i was like 7 honestly fire game ### 5/5 — Evan *2024-06-10, version 3.0.5* It is good ### 5/5 — Nice game *2024-06-07, version 3.0.5* Quite easy and simple but nice gameplay, to the people moaning about paying £1 …..seriously!?? Do you understand the work that goes into making a game? Would you work for free or even £1? I highly doubt it. Ridiculously selfish people, everyone knows how iap works unless your really that stupid you need it spelling out in Caps that you may have to reimburse for your entertainment at some point, just enjoy the generous free levels and quit complaining. 🤦🏼‍♀️ thanks for a nice game. ### 5/5 — Great game *2023-07-16, version 3.0.5* The first few levels are free, but for the last 10 you have to pay five dollars. I think it’s worth the money, as the levels are very fun and unique. And if you get stuck, there are hints you can use at any time, all you have to do is watch a short advertisement. The only thing I didn’t like is the pop up advertisements on the bottom of the screen. I kept clicking on them by accident and it sent me to safari countless times trying to get me to buy products. Super fun game that will keep you entertained for quite awhile! ### 5/5 — This game is awesome *2023-06-11, version 3.0.4* After playing this game for many years repeatedly, this game has become nostalgic to me.
