Ratings and Reviews
Ruined a good game by adding greedy in-app purchases.
I love your games as they are quite challenging and with a good story. This one is a bit TOO challenging: despite changing the difficulty settings in the main menu, there are no tooltips and no hint systems, and the difficulty is set to high regardless. I haven't finished it bc it is too frustrating (and how was I supposed to know where the glow balls were or where I could hang the floss?!).
I really tried to like it because I love your games and I love the concept but it wasn't very interesting. I also prefer to have rooms open up as I go along and solve puzzles instead of having everything accessible right away. Then it can easily get tedious and overwhelming. Plus is doesn't have any hints even though you can enable them in the settings.
Not for me.
Clever puzzles, just the right challenge.
Released 2016 This is a masterpiece GLITCH. Out of all your games this one is actually very different in a good way. I love the idea of interacting with characters and side to side movement. Very cool
