What Makes Please, Don't Touch Anything Stand Out
Please, Don’t Touch Anything is a cryptic, brain-racking game about bathroom breaks, screwdrivers and nuclear explosions.
Covering for a colleague taking a bathroom break, you find yourself in front of a mysterious panel which only component is a red button. And since you’ve clearly been instructed not to touch anything, the only thing you want to do now is pushing the damn button.
Push it and expect to be held liable for any unintended aftermath. And there will be many.
FEATURES
- 25 devious enigmas
- Singular pixel art
- Atmospheric chiptune soundtrack
- Touch screen optimized gameplay
REVIEWS
"[…] some of the puzzles are so fiendish and abstract that I'm sure I'll be spending days if not weeks getting fully to the bottom of Please, Don't Touch Anything"

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Im rating it five stars because Ive played this game over and over again through the years on multiple platforms and devices. We still love to come back and replay it, obviously. The reason we redownloaded it this time, though, was to complete our achievements in Game Center, but none of them are registering that Ive gotten them. We would hate to leave a poor review for something that may or may not be something the developer could fix, but just cant seem to find a solution to the problem.
We cant get the Death Star ending because it doesnt show the ending it just erases the numbers.
The number thingy is just going up without touching it and we cant stop it at 273 or 666 so can you fix that.
The button isnt that very active so for every 10 presses, the button is pressed 4 times.
How about adding a siren head ending so it can be.
We want to complete the game but we cant because city boom is broken. Please fix this.
We keep on trying city boom and we cant not do it And its our last ending please make it easyier to do Thats all Im asking for but amazing game.
While playing the bomber mini game the button is kind of small and you cant zoom so it is hard to hit and it lags so much sometimes we press the button but it doesnt respond not only in the mini game please just make the button bigger or allow zoom in the bomber mini game.
The game is fun. A bit unresponsive but, the zoom function really helps! Most of the endings are pretty neat but, some are just retarded like, the baby coming out of the button, CITY BOOM >:(, and the ending where you have to get the number to say 666. Its so hard to stop the button on that ending.
We are amazed how good this game is for the iPad and the game play is awesome if you like old pixel games you will love this app.
Its a good fun game, but city bomb is probably the most infuriating thing we've seen in a while, especially when the button doesn't register you taping it.
Good but REALLY FIX THE STUPID BUTTON FOR THE RED BARON ENDING.
This game is amazing! It is so much fun to play.
Fix controls for the little mini game where you have to bomb the city.
U should get it… NOW. Only thing is that the button response needs to be fixed.
Excellent puzzle game with a fantastic 8-bit atmosphere.
Fix it so you can click it multiple times.
We absolutely love this game, especially all the little references and goodies. It's tricky and challenging, but not to a point of impossibility. Every time you pick it back up, you realise there's some new combination of things you just didn't try previously. There were some problems with controls at times, but we found that they're fairly easy to resolve by zooming in.
AMAZING DESIGN AND IDEA BUT 1) we got it for 1.99, but we wouldnt pay full price 2) buttons are hard to push sometimes 3) more hints around the box 4) endings are funny and awsome, we just could use a few more… 25 is a good start tho.
This is so awesome we love the 25 endings the papers please and Stanley parable endings but only worth $1.99 unless you PLEASE make a sequel or more levels. Also we love like the demonic illuminatis throughout the game. But we hate how the buttons are so hard to press on small screens please fix it! But overall it's awesome. Plz make a sequel.
Pacing is the only complaint we could have. Otherwise a near-perfect iOS game.
We're writing this review for the simple minded fools who don't get a great game when they see it. Other than the hate, this is phenomenal and an amazing puzzler.
We BEAT THE PLANE GAME. JUST KEEP SPAMMING THE BUTTON AND HOPING FOR THE BEST.
We've played our share of puzzle games. PDTA is unreal as puzzlers go. This is a highly complex puzzle-box style game, with lots of outcomes and an extraordinarily detailed set of secondary puzzles ranging from pattern problems to orientation to math…and some that just plain defy explanation. As complicated as it is, it can be frustrating, but there are answers, and some of the animations are hilarious (but all are creative). People with a short attention span or who are easily frustrated may not enjoy this one, but for puzzle fans, it's quite good. Clues are a little thin on the ground, so here's one non-spoiling tip: don't think you can only tap things once. That's enough to get you started on hours of puzzling. A well-earned A to this pixelicious puzzler app.
In this game you are a scientist (we think) taking over another scientists post while they are away, but he tells you not to touch anything, so you just stand there for 30 seconds until your curiosity takes over and you start pressing buttons. You do this for a bit and realize that you have to solve different puzzles on the(computer) to progress through the game. But some of the puzzles are difficult and hard to find, for example the instruction for (work) left to the computer screen has Roman numerals that are sideways and you have press the button twice and type that code in then this switch and a few buttons appear on the (desk) and if you pull the switch to the right two buttons pop up 0 and 1 (binary code) and a light witch lets you see hidden writing on the desk, we've tried to figure out what to do from there but we're not bored at all while we're playing this and even after we're off the game we sometimes still think of ways to solve the puzzle. We've found like 6 Easter eggs or puzzles so far but we're stuck on this one. The game is a lot of fun and gets you thinking out side the box. And that's why we gave this game a 5 star review, thank you for your time, hope this helped someone know if they want to buy this game or not.
Horrible bug we found was fixed, changing review to 5*.
It's really good but it's a bit hard because there is so much things u can do and it's so confusing.
Really fun and unique puzzle but one of them involves hitting the red button to drop bombs. For reasons we dont understand you have to hit the red button exactly which, when looking where youre dropping and touching a glass screen, your finger will inevitably shift and then you just end up losing. All these puzzle are great example of how you make a fun puzzle game. That one game is an example of what you should never do in a puzzle game.
We love this game and all its puzzles but im stuck on the city bomb because half the time when we press the button it wont work so we waste a ton of bombs. Ive gotten close before but we just cant seem to beat it.any comments on how to beat it would be a great help.
Why do we have to stay up till midnight just to get one of the endings we thought it would work at noon too but nothing happened. Please make noon another option. :(.
Literally its impossible to beat city boom the button doesnt even press down when we press it and we end flying into the buildings but other that we love the game.
We find that the city boom ending is quite hard due to the button not clicking fast enough, pls fix this.
City boom is impossible so please make the button more active please other than that its a GOOD GAME totally worth the money just please make more frequent updates because Ive seen the update history and the last update was 2 years ago so please more frequent updates please but still, GOOD GAME.
This game is full of awesome puzzles as the game uses around 20 different ending! But, the game doesnt use the best of them from 3D! Must add the devil endings please! We know the Illuminati is there, but please add the ghost face and the girl! The game is otherwise awesome! We recommend it before you buy 3D.
Overall this is a great port of the computer version but we are having a lot of difficulty with the game city bomber. It does not appear to drop the bombs as quickly as it will on PC. It is very difficult to hit the buildings without failure and we have yet to successfully complete it.
Ok we have all the ending except one that boom city we have fat fingers so hard for us to hit the red button can you please fix that please!!!!!! We love this game and we want to complete it.
This game is great but we've been having some difficulties pressing the red button while playing the "bomber level" and it's been difficult to complete due to that.
5 STAR ONCE YOU MAKE THE BUTTON REGISTER BETTER.
It's a good game, but we've spent a full week trying this city bomber game, it is the most tedious and frustrating thing we think we've ever had to do in any app, FIX THIS.
The game's great, but the controls can be extremely frustrating and annoying at times.
City boom is horrible in this version. It's the LAST THING STANDING IN THE WAY OF MY VICTORY and the button only registers every other tap in the minigame.
We love this game personally, however on Ending 19 When we put the coordinates in CORRECTLY, and we are positive the coordinates are right, we wasn't able to get the diamond required for the ending. Please fix, unless we missed a tiny detail that is messing us up.
Game reminds us of our kids, annoying but we love it! You should touch PDTA.
Great game, and really fun! But we need to find a way to make the City Boom ending to actually work, because you press the red button so slow in that mode and it is just IMPOSSIBLE! It's the only ending that a have not gotten, after thousands of tries.And we really want to get to the end of of the game which(SPOILER!SPOILER!SPOILER!)has a coffee machine, and we love coffee! PLZ FIX THIS! -Andrew.
Pleaseeeeeeee make the airplane game possible. We love the game for everything but that. We have tried it like 50 times and we have still not beat it yet. So pleaseeeeeeeee make it easier.
WHAT THE HECK IS THE CODE!!!! We're stuck on that part! LOL.
Ok, so we got this game on half price (1.99) When we press the buttons, switches, levels it doesn't respond very well. It was hard as hard to defeat the little bloody creature. If you guys would be kind enough to fix that we would totally buy full price (3.99) and give 5 stars:) thanks for the Great game!! – Jed.
We love this game and it has amazing graphics, but for the plane mini game it the button does not respond sometimes and that is frustrating, since it's basically impossible for us now. Please fix this.
Such a weird game, and not in a bad way. We wouldn't spend $5 on it, but it is worth a couple bucks.
Great game, but please fix the button for the city bomb mini game, it doesn't drop a bomb sometimes when you press it :(.
