I cannot fully express how great the Framed franchise is. This is purely Grade-A across the board. Dev’s... wow. Such a brilliant concept & a beautiful execution. This is leaps-and-bounds above any other games in the puzzler genre on ALL platforms. Sure the game is rather short & people dock a star off their rating due to it, but from the standpoint of an Animator, can we all take a moment to appreciate how every single frame & animation wherein are works of art in themselves? To all of the Devs involved. THANK YOU
That is fantastic, marvelous,artistic, addictive,above that imagination...
Nice game, not worth 3.99 though.
Would have had a better review if it wasn’t so darn short. For $3.99 I’d say pass, as it’s a rip off at that price.
After the first few “puzzles” I was already bored. There’s only so many times you can randomly switch tiles back and forth until you happen upon the correct combination. The strategy level is similar to a game of tic-tac-toe, where first you randomly guess until the “solution” becomes obvious. So sorry I bought this tripe.
Just trial and error putting the frames in order with no payoff. Don’t waste your money. I wish I would have bought anything else
I can get this to work on my iPad but it crashes on loading on Apple TV. Same with framed 2
