Community Insight:
We love this game company so much. Ive been looking for good point-and-click adventure games for mobile and now we keep finding ourselves coming back to these games.
We used to play it a lot and we still do we like it but one question. Why Do You Escape On Act 5.
We have been a longtime fan of Haiku games. Playing this once more gave us a lot of nostalgia, since we remember struggling as a baby riddle solver. Honestly, we also really like the story. Sure, Haiku makes much more polished games nowadays and we think that's great, but even this game was pretty great.
Ok, so this game is quite old, but still very entertaining! Dont expect great graphics or mechanics, but its still super fun. There are arcade type games, so if you hate those, this is not for you (or you can skip them.) The arcade games are not terribly difficult, but they do take some patience! The puzzles are fun, we especially liked the apple weighing game at the endclever.
We have been having a great time working these puzzles. Some more difficult than others but fun nonetheless.
It is a good game. A little simple but still good and challenging.
This may be an early attempt but we are a loyal fan. Consistently most fun and immersive apps around. Support them.
This adventure escape game is an excellent game of its series and genre.
So far so good. Ive had trouble getting stuck without sufficient clues to move forward no matter how many stars we purchase. Im hopeful the editors caught all the glitches.
A fun and engaging game. Highly recommended.
We have yet to play a game from this developer that we didnt feel was well worth the time to play it. This one is a bit more cartoonish and we guess simpler in design is the best way we can think to describe it. Regardless of any shortcomings though it is still quite fun and worth the download.
We really like the game, pretty easy. The only thing the was a bit complicated for us was the marble mini game where you had to reach multiple spots. Other than that, pretty good game.
Fun and still learning. Still learning. Get more stars.
Lots of fun! Puzzles are just challenging enough.
The graphics are as good as in some of the newer games but if you just getting started in this type of game, its a good confidence builder.
Fun and just challenging enough without being frustrating.
So far anyway. Ive played about 6. Some are really tough but Im getting better.
Great fun and good way to kill time.
We love these puzzles we have done all they make so please make more.
Mostly good. No hint is frustrating. Play anyway.
Keep up the great work on these games as you are doing a great job our only " flaw" is the help section could use tweaking a bit to help attract more clients to your games better just a suggestion otherwise keep up the great work.
Obviously, this is one of their earlier apps, so theyve come a long way (which is why we think our standards for them are so high). Nevertheless, it is still an enjoyable game. The story line is simpler than their later ones, but all in all, its pretty good.
Fun so far! Just started but we like it.
The hints are helpful when you need them and the game is great its self.
This was the last of the haiku games to play for us. We absolutely loved the rest of them. This one was a bit different. As a haiku game we dont think it was up to par but as a puzzle solving game it great.
So far so good!! We love any game from the Haiku company.
We are really enjoying this game as we do all of their games.
The puzzles are fun but needs some updates to compare the quality of more recent games.
Game is great for time consuming and your mind definitely takes awhile to get these thinkers down.
This is much easier than some of their other games but still fun.
Loooove this adventure puzzle app.. Haiku has best games.
Our 7YO daughter saw us playing the more advanced games and we started the Scottish Castle escape to help her with her reading extra credit. Super fun already.
We like this game not to hard not to easy.
Love the game. Love Haiku Games. Yall check them out! With the whole coronavirus, this game entertained us while we were voluntarily quarantined.
This game is really fun and challenging.
This game plays like a escape game, but it has a plot with cutscenes (hence, Adventure Escape). Many of the puzzles can be solved with ease, but the developers leave enough difficult puzzles for you to try and figure out (the hard puzzles are usually at the end of a chapter). You can find and collect stars to use as currency for answers, but try not to use them unless it is necessary. The best part (of course) is you do not need any WiFi to play this game. Haiku Games craft their apps rather well. No disappointments so far.
Game is kinda slow but we loved the puzzles and challenges. Artwork could be better but we mean its free.
Love the game… Good fun and entertainment.
We've played many of these problem-solving games. We really enjoy this one.
Love this game. Just the right amount of difficulty to hold our attention without going overboard.
Great game to play when waiting for your.
We do not normally play games on a console or our phone, but this game is absolutely addicting! We cant stop playing them. We have never played a game that was so much fun, had such great graphics, and was so well thought out. We give this game an A++.
This is a good game we want more games like this its cool house you move you phone sometimes this game is really relaxing. It requires no WiFi!! We JUST LOVE IT.
This is the second game by this developer that Ive tried so far and they both have been fun but this one seems different and a lot easier than the first one, which was one of the trap maker, Kate Gray mysteries. Im still at the beginning of this one so well see how well we like this one. To be continued.
Pretty great game. The locked puzzle game of rolling the ball to light up the green squares was very hard to beat.
This game ie challenging and fun.
We enjoy all of your escape adventure escape games! No one else can make them like your team does. Awesome storylines with amazing graphics and the best assortment of puzzles to keep us glued for hours. Im just waiting patiently for updates to new games from you! We rate other games compared to you and leave reviews for them and other players to search Haiku games to see how it should be done.
We loved solving the puzzles and getting through the rooms- we didnt want to stop playing.
We love these Haiku games. Not too hard and not too easy.
Love this game and all of the others by haiku.
