### 4/5 — Pretty good

*2025-11-27*

Personally I just don’t like that you have to read A LOT because I’m more of a hands-on kinda person and I’d rather be able to interact with a room, items, and other stuff but the story line is pretty great and it would be the perfect game for someone who is more of a reader than me. But overall I love the game it’s just that one thing.

### 4/5 — Need help!

*2025-09-11*

I think the concept is very good, being a book lover this game incorporates the best of two worlds. I only have a small problem….. still in chapter one and I am trying to get in the mansion. Problem is the postcard is a white blank sheet that cannot be read. Also the word ‘key’ is greyed out ( I have the key) and no amount of clicking on the word will open it.
Have tried deleting and reinstalling without success. 
Can the creators please help?

### 5/5 — One of the best games

*2025-04-22*

Such a good story with difficult yet not impossible puzzles!

### 5/5 — I’d recommend it

*2025-04-19*

The controls were intuitive and the game played nicely. I haven’t played the full version yet, but I will soon. Thanks for your hard work!

### 5/5 — Una historia llena de secretos

*2025-04-15, version 1.1.1*

Es un juego que se lee con puzzles y misterios para resolver con una Estetica genial

### 5/5 — Fun puzzles and high production value

*2025-04-10*

Highly recommend! The art and sound design is great, and the puzzles are a good level of challenging but intuitive. I also really appreciate that there’s an actual progressive hint system that begins with really vague hints just to get you thinking instead of revealing the answer instantly. This is really rare in adventure games

### 4/5 — Won’t play on my iPad.

*2025-04-06*

All that happens is that I get a screen that says ‘Hicksville boarding school, I’m an idiot’ and that’s it. I can’t find any interactive place on the screen. I closed and reopened, deleted and reinstalled, deleted and powered off and on again and reinstalled and same thing. I tried tapping all over and swiping every which way. Am I missing something?

Update: thanks, dev! I see it now. I guess I tapped on most everything but those words. It’s sadly not my cup of tea with so much reading, but it looks like a good game if you like that sort of thing.  I changed my rating bc it wasn’t fair to give a such a low rating bc I didn’t figure out how to play.

**Developer response:** Hello Suzsho, You need to click on the words that are highlighted in bold. This will expand the text and allow you to play.

There are also hints available in the menu if you need help later on.

Let me know if you have any issues!

### 4/5 — Very creative interacting novel!

*2025-04-06*

Just finishing a story. The puzzles are very interesting and creative. I was glad that it gave some hints as it was getting harder and harder.
I love the music and the story as well.
I think $6 for a whole game is worth it and I totally recommend this game.

The only reason i took 1 star off is some hints were kind of ambiguous, not very helpful. Otherwise this is a GREAT game!

### 5/5 — Good, but 2gb!?

*2025-04-04*

It’s a good game text based, but interactive. My only question is why is it 2gb!?

### 4/5 — NOT FREE as shown

*2025-03-28*

I can see this being a good game but you only get a couple screens into Chapter 1 before it forces you to purchase for $5.99 (USD). It’s an interactive reading mystery drama that has potential but I dont know what happens after the video in Chapter 1 after the code is interred in the door.

**Developer response:** Hello , we are sorry for your disappointment. We are leaving the first chapter free so you can try the game and, if you like it, buy it in full without ads. The game requires payment to unlock content after the first chapter. We understand that this may cause confusion, but there is currently no clearer way to indicate this in the store.

### 1/5 — Please make a “dark background “

*2025-06-21*

I really love the story, but my eyes is really heart.

### 1/5 — You can’t even complete the first objective.  Just deleted wasted time

*2025-05-04*

Deleted it

**Developer response:** Can you tell us what doesn't work for you? Remember that apple verifies that the app works well, although sometimes there can be a bug. Did you try clicking on the bold words when you start? That displays the text and allows you to move forward. We want to help you play

### 1/5 — Stuck at level 1 intro screen. BUG

*2025-04-30*

What kind of idiots released a game where there’s a bug within the first ten seconds. Enjoy your well deserved one star and go back to your freshman computer science class. Good luck because you’ll need it with coding skills this poor.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2025-04-28*

The play is horrible and the story itself is juvenile, melodramatic garbage.  It’s like if teen Disney wrote romantic drama- totally couldn’t get into it.  
This isn’t a game, it’s a bad book

### 1/5 — Won’t play on my iPad.

### 2/5 — Great game but am stuck b/c of a bug on chapter 2

*2026-07-28*

I really dig what I’ve seen and played, but there is an audio clue in chapter 2 that won’t play; it’s just silence on the radio. 

I looked up the answer to the safe in the study, and nothing happened when I turned the knobs based on the paintings. 

I’d love to play more and will replace this review with a 5 star one if the bug is fixed.

### 2/5 — Idiot

*2025-09-06*

Si le concept du jeu est très mignon et innovant, la qualité des énigmes est totalement à revoir. Dès la première énigme (code de la porte), l’indice est inutilisable et la résolution manifestement tarabiscotée. 
A fuir. 

2* pour l’originalité

### 2/5 — Interesting concept killed by a boring story

*2025-06-09*

The game feels like an update on the old choose-your-own-story genre, and could be pretty cool but the writing and storyline is SO boring. I’m barely making it through the first chapter and am disappointed I’m not more motivated to keep going.

### 2/5 — Why?

*2025-04-12*

It was super fun and I enjoyed it but I wanted to play all the chapters but I had to pay 8 dollars to play the full game please make it free it was awesome just too much

**Developer response:** Hi! Thanks for your feedback. We’re a 15‑person indie team and each chapter takes months of work. The full game pass lets us keep improving and creating more content. Keep an eye out for future offers, and thanks for your support!

### 3/5 — A bug?

*2026-04-06*

So after I opened the dwarf gate it only shows a yellow background with nothing to interact.

### 5/5 — Hard game but intriguingly different

*2026-07-16*

I won't criticize the game for it being difficult -- clearly I'm not up to it. The gameplay is refreshingly different and quirky so it kept my interest. Until chapter 3 which -- even with hints -- defeated me. Looks like it should be an easy game. Nope. Kudos to the developers and users who can figure it out.

### 5/5 — Très original

*2026-01-07*

J’ai beaucoup aimé la tonalité du jeu, l’héroïne bancale mais pour laquelle on se prend d’amitié et le mystère qui entoure sa vie et cette fameuse « house ».
Les énigmes ne sont pas forcément faciles mais si on aime les jeux un peu tarabiscotés, on sera heureux. On peut aussi s’aider de sites de personnes ayant terminé le jeu si les indices ne suffisent pas (ça m’est arrivé deux trois fois mais je n’ai pas trouvé cela gênant).
Peut-être à éviter si on n’est pas patient et pas très branché énigmes mais sinon, ça devrait vous plaire !

### 5/5 — beautiful game

*2025-10-30*

absolutely love highly recommend

### 5/5 — Revolutionary

*2025-10-16*

A breath of fresh air among all the copy-paste low quality and low effort games nowadays. Fully worth the (very low) price for what it is; same as paying a small entrance fee at a museum to admire the incredible works of art.

### 5/5 — Great story and challenging puzzles

*2025-09-30*

Challenging but not impossible. Great graphics and story. Interesting game play set up.

### 5/5 — Thank you!

*2025-06-27*

I haven’t gotten into this fully yet…hoping it’s an escape room type situation with puzzles to solve by yourself or with others. However, I jumped up with excitement & joy when I realized there was a dyslexic font!!!  Thank you thank you thank you from the bottom of my heart!!!

### 5/5 — Génial

*2025-06-22*

Très bien pensé et original

### 5/5 — DF

### 5/5 — Very Enjoyable

*2025-06-20*

The mystery as well as the puzzles were refreshing.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2025-06-18, version 1.1.3*

Super interesting game for all you mistery lovers out there. On spot graphics and audio FXs. Do play it!
