I really enjoyed this game it had me engaged that I couldn't stop I have others from this maker and love them.
In the end, the puzzles were too easy and the whole game consists of travelling and completing simple tasks. Pass
Enjoyed a mobile game after a long time. Five stars.
Love that it had a ton of content and never lets you get stuck.
I’ve purchased all of Syntaxity’s games. I wish they had more, the second I see one drop, I buy it. Excellent music and puzzles.
This game is great in so many ways... beautiful scenery, challenging puzzles that are also logical - not too hard, not too easy, fast transition time between locations so you can move speedily from one place to another, an integrated hint system if you need it, a camera to record important finds, and a map (not teleporting but I didn't need it). It has a lot of locations but they're well organized and were introduced gradually so I didn't find it too hard to learn my way around... the terrain was challenging but in a good way. It's also long. I was so happy that it went on as long as it did and it also had some surprises and unexpected delights. Overall a really great game. My only suggestion would be to make the camera one that we operate (like Glitch Games does) rather than one that's automatically operated. But that's a small thing. THANK YOU to Lone Wolf games and I can't wait for the next one! And, oh yeah, not one single glitch! Flawless in my opinion.
We play this over and over.
