Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Puzzles were innovative, but wish they were harder. Elephant goes out of their way to add little flourishes here and there. The HOs were varied; list, silhouette, FROG, match the pairs, and combinatory. The story is long, then after you finish theres a secret room where you play a few puzzles and HOs again for an achievement. You collect morphing objects in every scene, and 16 stained glass pieces that comprise 4 mosaics, and once you complete a mosaic, you can play a HO. So, lots to do. We usually dont use the teleporting map, because we like to feel like Im really there. But in the medieval section it was absolutely necessary, because you kept going back and forth between two rooms a lot. Real rating of 4.5 bumped up to 5.
We love this game!! Five Stars!! The puzzles are great, and so is the story, map is very helpful and so is the guide.
Excellent ! Really enjoying these unique and clever puzzles….fun and ….not always so easy. Like the story line, graphics, visuals amazing . This is a good one!! Challenging , long… Am not finished yet, but …it is GOOD.
We rarely get into the story of BF games but b/c this 1 isn't fantasy we did. Im glad there was only 2 H.O. Scenes, they are usually too simple. Great story, challenging game play. Mini games were too easy but the game play more than makes up for it. Wud have been 5 stars w better larger text.
Challenging, fun, full of variety and puzzles. Recommend.
…not very challenging. Decent graphics and story but not much else. A lot of back and forth; HO scenes were scant and so were the mostly easy puzzles. There was only one puzzle that was remotely challenging but it was like a poor man's MCF puzzle Played most of the way through the trial but not interesting/challenging enough to finish or purchase.
Thank God there's a map with teleportation or you'd be going back and forth for forever! The map tells you where there is a move to make, and, believe us, you'll be very happy to use it. The puzzles are varied in style and difficulty. The story seems rather blah, but we never pay much attention the the story. The game is okay, but not great.
If U need a good virtual workout, running from scene to scene in a tired, lock-step routine in which U exchange one item for another up the chain until we assume a finale of some sorts arrives and U prevail- this game is for U. If U R a couch potato and would rather skip the aerobics, never fear, there R portals to take away even that small challenge. There aren't enough HOP's, and just for kicks and giggles (excepting the leatherman) every freaking tool U find disappears as soon as U use it! We know this is pretty standard, but damnit one would think a time traveling professor would think to hold onto a screwdriver! We even lost the rock we were forced to use as a hammer! Aaagghhh! How clumsy, butterfingered, absent-minded or just plain baked can an avatar be? We tried to like this game- it had so much promise: a time traveling professor who must solve the mystery of whether and or why she killed the oddly well-shaven-unibomber, only to discover her niece is the real culprit. At first going back and forth in time, finding creepy, other-dead-Bill-Gates-looking-guy, hidden ominous voodoo room and at last-shifting back to the dark ages just in time to see "ye olde public execution", but it gets old and ends fast. It was nothing special.
Downloaded the trial, which was fine the first time we opened it. Now it won't even open at all. All we get is a black screen. Glad we didn't pay for it. It was interesting and fun. They used the 3 panel screens, which we like. We'll be happy to up the stars, if we can figure out how to get the thing to work.
We liked the free trial so we bought the game for $5. This was not worth buying the full version. We finished this game in an hour. For the price it should've been much longer. We've bought games for $2 and they were triple the length of this game. On a good note, the graphics were good, story line was decent but the story could've been so much more. Our recommendation keep your money on this game, it's just not worth it for the price.
This is the third game from Big Fish that we have installed on our new phone that wont play. We have installed other games from other developers with no problem. Its sad because we have been playing this developers games for years. Not anymore.
When the game begins, there is a short cutscene with a Skip option that doesnt work. The game then goes to a screen that allows the player to enter their name. We are unable to enter a name or even accept the generic user name. The game is frozen and wont allow any action or input by the user. Since we see App Store comments & reviews a year old from people who have had the same problem, it seems as though you may want to choose another game. While troubleshooting, we ran across an article on the Big Fish website that said Apple would no longer support 32-bit games with iOS 11; as of the writing of this review, that article had been updated 2 days prior. Since going back to look at the dates and iOS versions caused us to lose the first draft of this review, we cant verify this might be the issue. As we purchased this game over 6 years ago, we think this is probably a reasonable assumption. If this IS the issue, then neither Big Fish nor Apple should allow this game to be offered on the Apple App Store. If the game is no longer supported, Im somewhat annoyed the Apple & Big Fish still have it on the Apple App Store.
The Game is great but once you're done with the free part and you want to do the upgrade to the paid version it's seven dollars! We think not.
The keys are not registering our touch and so we cant even type in a name or click on ok to get to the game.
Cant get past the title screen.
There was another review exactly like this and it also happened to us today. We have an iPhone XR and it wont let us put our name in, we cant skip that part, we cant do anything!! Ridiculous of Big Fish to do this!! This needs to be fixed now, youve known about it for quite a while and no update to fix the problem. Why.
This game says its compatible with an iPhone but doesnt even work, Ive tried playing this numerous times, its stuck on the name screen. We cant skip, or put our name in. Itd be nice if this was updated so people could play it, especially since its on sale right now. You would think this would be updated since Big Fish is still selling it.
Save your money like we did. This we have played before…..RIPOFF.
