Community Insight:
Great puzzler. One of our favorite from Glitch so far. Difficult but solvable if you're familiar with the genre. A nice meta puzzle too in this game, where four rooms have to be solved individually and then another puzzle that involves all those rooms together. A quicker game than some others but maybe we've cracked Glitch logic. Puzzle solutions often require combining knowledge from multiple pieces of information. 5/5 would play again in a few years when we've forgotten the solutions.
This might be our favorite of the Glitch Games (or it might just be the one we played most recently). Great puzzles, awesomely cool framework, neat story. Just so much fun.
We actually really liked this game. We liked how you had to figure out how to progress through the rooms in order to get the right stuff for the next room. The fact that you lost your stuff and had to pick it back up when the rooms were re-arranged made it challenging. Lots of levels. We found this game a little easier (we were actually able to figure most of them out on our own), maybe because you had a finite number of puzzles in each room to solve. LOVE your games devs! Have worked our way through almost all of them. We liked how you the hint system because we definitely need help with some of the puzzles.
Maybe its because Ive played every preceding glitch game, but this one was just too easy for us. We may have figured out the different types of puzzles too well, we always enjoy the artwork, the music and the general vibe of the games but in this one, we felt a little bit more like we were just playing along with a movie or something of the sort because the puzzles lack depth. We really enjoyed the overall structure of it though, we enjoy the mystery that glitch puts into their games and we love that they reference previous games and even future games in each individual one. Probably our favorite game creator, but theyre just not quite getting five stars on this one only because the puzzles were too easy.
When taking the button for the save from the steps it disappears when you leave the room.
It was a pretty fun game, but suddenly the "Back" button disappeared and we were unable to progress in the game. We restarted the game from the beginning, and the back button wouldn't appear at all. We literally can't play the game anymore. Would love to get our money back for this game that we're unable to play.
We loved this game, and actually think it might be our favorite Glitch game, which is saying something. It is a different style than many of their others, but a really unique and thoughtful gameplay still full of many Glitch-style puzzles. We were bummed when we finished it.
We enjoyed playing this game, however there were a couple of problems we had with the game. The puzzle with the cash register (till) didnt work for us because the digital numbers kept rotating rapidly when we pressed on a number and would not stop on the actual number we selected. So we had no idea what to do. It was only when we looked up the answer and saw what the numbers should be. We believe there is a bug somewhere. Also, the puzzle using the fire escape plan we believe is a little misleading because the token for us started in the middle, not where it needs to be in order to follow the plan. You have to move it to that location first then start the plan. Overall, it was a decent game.
We liked the game, but there was a bug in the last step. The button for the lock box never made it to the hospital. We tried picking up the button five times and each time it disappeared from our inventory by the time we got to the lock box. Very frustrating. We were using an ipad.
It was a very fun game don't get us wrong but it kept shutting down at least every 5 minutes or less and sometimes more depending the level we were on.
Living up to their name. Game glitched and closed 10 times in the first 10 minutes.
Glitch does it again – another creative, interesting and fun game.
As always, never disappointed!! Great gameplay, love the hint feature, very engaging and enjoyable.
This ones a little on the easier side. Very fun! We know when we buy Glitch, we wont be disappointed. We know it wont be money wasted lol. We also like that their apps/games dont collect any data. Thats the way games should be. Nice job devs:).
The puzzles in this game are really fun. The story line just a bit incoherent. We hope theres a sequel to reveal more of the story. Ill be replaying this one, too. Thanks for not tracking everything about your fans.
We genuinely dont understand the other reviews that are complaining about this game. Sure, its not as long as some of the other games by this company, but its priced appropriately based on that. We spent a wonderful evening figuring out the delightful puzzles in this game, and we cant recommend it enough if you like those types of games.
We love all your games and this one is no exception. We like the creative twist of needing to do things in a certain order. Puzzles are just the right amount of difficulty to make you think but not too much. It was slightly shorter than some of their other games but we feel like the price was just right for the length. Took us about 5-6 hours. Good job Glitch! Keep it up.
Initially we had only a black screen on our iPad Pro when trying to play the game. We had to delete the app, restart the iPad, and reinstall the game to get things working. Thats a strange requirement but the game is now running fine and Im enjoying it (as we have all the Glitch games).
This new format as is not as much fun as the original. We get board easily.
We like previous Glitch games a lot. This was good but short. It took us 2 hours and Im no wiz. And then the end? Im like, wait thats the end? We dont get it. No satisfying resolution after the whole story, and we expected a couple hours more of play. Its a decent game but expect it to be pretty easy and short.
This is just one more escape game in the marketnothing special. So disappointing because we always look forward to the next Glitch game. Ive purchased all of them from the beginning. Wheres the next chapter in All That Remains? We need the story games, like Veritas, Cabin, Short Tale, heck even Ferris Mueller was good. And we did enjoy Another Tomorrow.
Despite the revision notes indicating fix for missing items, still cant progress past the cod/noose/noon puzzle. Missing the noon card, which just disappeared. Quite disappointed in the game-breaking glitch.
Very fun, challenging and enjoyable puzzles.
As with all the glitch games, this game was very fun. The easiest one we have played by far, but still fun and worth the money.
We really enjoyed the concept of the stages and the rooms. Yes it made it slightly easier because everything was there to get out, but you had to determine the order, otherwise you couldnt get any further. We learned the hard way, but we learned and went on to enjoy. We also think it was a little easier because playing their games over the years has Glitched our brain.
So cleverly executed! Looking forward to future installments.
This ones a bit more claustrophobic, escape-the-roomy, but the gimmick of re-ordering the rooms to get to the next group is clever. We dont like being inside the whole time, though.
We were pleasantly surprised when we saw that Glitch had a new game available and downloaded right away. No issue with price as others have commented. Overall, the game was enjoyable, but compared to other Glitch games (e.g., Forever Lost), this one regrettably underwhelms. Still worth the purchase, but we agree with the takes that Incoherence is a bit more linear than other Glitch games. The vast majority of clues to exit a room are contained within that room. And the instances where cross-room knowledge or items needed followed a pattern. Its still good fun and look forward to future releases but feel like this one did not meet the high standard of other Glitch offerings.
The forever lost series was genius. We dont expect these guys to replicate that. Its like getting hit by lightning twice. The puzzles were fun but there was just no story It became redundant.
The first Glitch game we purchased that was a waste of time and money. One simple, linear room escape after another over and over again and then nothing. Every time we finished a set of 4 rooms each with 2-3 boring puzzles we were dreading another set of 4 boring rooms but thats all there was. Low res graphics, not much game play. Maybe the original Glitch sold out to this second rate company and thats why they wont allow us to restore our purchases of the older games.
Id like to start off by saying, this as all Glitch games, is amazing. However, we ran into a serious glitch in Chapter 3, the Alley, that has left us unable to move forward. Its definitely not an issue with not being able to figure our way out of the problem, but a flaw in the software. Our only option is to start the entire game all over again. Im hoping the developers are reading the reviews because they arent responding to email.
Love your games! Had a little hiccup having to toggle on Snapshots (which is under settings and show advanced settings.) Then only after restarting did it finally work – and so glad we are, its awesome as usual. Highly recommend, much as we do The Forever Lost series.
Incoherence is very smart but not rocket science which is perfect for us. The one time price for full access to hints when you need them is how it should be. We loved all 16 levels! Thank you sooooo much.
We thoroughly enjoyed the game, but we were especially taken with the extra layer of re-ordering the rooms after each level. Super cool premise. More like that one, please.
Im new to Glitch games but a veteran of escape room games (Tiny Room, The Room, etc). This one is a high quality and very enjoyable experience that took us a relaxed 2-3 hours, well worth the price. We chose to use the hint system a couple of times and found it tuned to give just enough information. Id recommend this to anyone who likes puzzle games, and particularly anyone who has tried escape room games and found them poorly designed or just too hard. This one wont disappoint.
This might not be the hardest game to play, but it is very much worth playing. Finding games worth paying for is like panning for gold. This time we found a nugget.
This is a fun and unique game with challenging puzzles and a great storyline as you progress through someones memories. As always with a Glitch game, the artwork is great, the puzzles make you think way outside the box and there is always whit and humor Hats off to Glitch for another incredible game.
Clever and beautiful game. We loved playing it. Puzzles were hard but always fair. Even though it looked excellent, the resolution was less than the resolution of an iPad Pro 12.9. Maybe that could be looked at for future games.
Only two puzzles that made no sense but that might just be us.
We just downloaded the game, and the screen is black! The camera, magnifying glass, file, and briefcase are all on the screen, but theres no picture. We tried to re-download the game, but we have the same problem. Any ideas about what we might need to do? We love Glitch games! We have ended playing every single one of them. Please help.
We just got this game and we were super excited to play, but when we started a new game the whole screen was black. Dialogue popped up and we assumed it would fix but it didnt. It told us to pick up the camera, so we had to randomly click the screen till we found it. We tried doing a new game and restarting the app, but nothing worked. The game looks fun, so please fix this bug.
Really excited to play, but the screen is black. The creator is responding to all similar views instructing on how to change the settings to fix the glitch. But toggling the snapshots button didnt work for us.
We paid for this game because we luv the creators, Ive never been disappointed. Well, this game has a huge glitch, no picture. It starts, we can tap the screen and words come up telling us locked and something about the wires but theres no picture. Just blackness.
IPhone 12 , all screens are just black.
Is this a glitch? The character wakes in a completely dark room, not a brightly lit one as the description says, making it impossible to do anything.
Cannot play the game. When we click new game it is just a black screen and tells us to pick things up but does not show anything, just black screen.
Sound and menus work but otherwise screen is black. You can find items by randomly tapping on the screen but nothing is visible. Uninstalled and reinstalled, same problem.
Paid $3.99 for the game. When we opened it, all we see is a black screen with a brief case in one corner and a magnifying glass in the other. Hints are telling us to pick up items but the entire screen is black. Id like our money back.
The game loads with just a blank screen and three icons in the corners. We tried both on our iPad Pro and our iPhone and same thing happens. There is no way to get it to work. We tried uninstalling and installing fresh and same issue persists.
This game is so good the only thing is that it was too short. We wanted it to get harder and slowly you start to question everything. We needed more. Please give us more.
