Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
We love the Beauty and the Beast theme of this HOP game! It was challenging but not too. The biggest thing that annoyed was Tapping objects, some times 4, 5 or 6 times. Also Dragging objects to where they need to go. We sometimes had to tap on a moveable object within a puzzle, not in inventory, multiple times to get it to stick to our finger so we could drag it into place. All of that said, we love the Dark Romance series! We love how you switch between main characters to experience the story from both their points of view! Please make more Dark Romance HOP games for the iPad! Thank you to all.
Most of the time the screen responds very slowly or not at all to tapping on hidden objects. The game is too short. The constant reloading screen is very annoying.
The Dark Romance series are extremely fun games. We've enjoyed every one of them and have played each one of them twice. The only issue we have is you have to touch items just on the right spot or at a certain pace in order to get them. This is for all items laying around and in the HOP games. If it wasn't for that which could be annoying at times, we would have given it 5 stars.
The biggest problem with this game is tapping. Many items have to be tapped at particular times, so, until the game designers think you need it, it's unavailable. Other times the clicking simply won't work. We tapped a picture in the circus scene at least four times, on four different occasions, before it finally worked. The game allows to to switch from a HO game, to a find three game. We prefer HO. The map is a bit confusing because it shows you a butterfly, but we're not quite sure what that means and the legend doesn't really explain it. But, this is the bet game coming from BigFish in quite a while.
The game is a bit hard and confusing at times but other then that it is fun.
The mini games were way too easy (this game should really be for 16 and under) but at least the games were logical and flowed well. There were multiple frustrating points where our touch was either not recognized when tapping/using items or over or under compensated during dragging type motions. So far we're not impressed w big fish for ipad.
Slow loading times. Tapping often not registered properly. Bonus game could not be completed due to bugs.
We played this on our laptop, and decided we would like to have it on our iPad as well. Our iPad version is crap. Can't pick up objects. Freezing. We will just use our laptop from now on for these games, and yes, it is a PC. For games, it is much easier on our nerves.
Nothing more reply to say other than our title. The beginning is very clunky and confusing. We have played tons of HO games and especially Big Fish games. This is a terrible one. Aside from the terrible gameplay, you have to click on things multiple times to get it to do anything. SAVE YOUR MONEY!! Please.
Had to touch objects so many times to get a response.
We purchased this app today for $6.99 and we cannot go any further than beast getting out of cage.
Terrible time with tapping on items and does not work well from screen to screen don't waste your time.
