  • Fun interesting game but very annoying at times

    Good premise, nice story, graphics, lots of content, interesting puzzles, hidden surprises and Easter eggs. Solid community and tip sheets. Fun! Unfortunately, too many puzzles are just repetitive and get extremely tiresome. Additionally, tap and swipe controls on the iPad are difficult for quick stops, turns, backing up, rapid precision movements which makes some levels/puzzles miserable and sad.

    Sorry I paid money for this. Just carrying around a camera thing for the first hour walking around a maze and gave up. Ok, it has nice graphics. But this is not a puzzle game, it’s just a walk around game. No patience to wait it out to see if ANYTHING happens.

  • So good! Extra campaigns please!

    Hello, how can we buy all the extra campaigns thanks! Road to Gehenna!!!! I’ve NEVER had a problem with the controls! I find them to work awesome fast and smooth. Just have to get a little used to it or turn up the sensitivity. I guess it is finicky sometimes to find certain points you need to connect to with the beams but other than that no probs

    Sorry y’all - I see the great reviews, and that’s why I downloaded it. I had done a Google search (yeah, first mistake) for “iOS games like The Room,” and this one came up (amongst all the ones I’ve already played). I was SUPER BORED by this game. No, I didn’t finish it, because I got fed up waiting for it to become…better. Now I’m mad that I actually spent dough on it. If you’re looking for “iOS games like The Room,” this is NOT it. But maybe you’ll have a different opinion. I can only give you mine. Blessings!

    (Please do yourself a favor and get this game on console or pc instead of ruining the experience with touch controls. This game deserves it.) Story This game makes you question your existence by asking profound philosophical questions about the nature of consciousness and what it means to be human. Gameplay Very fun and well thought out puzzles with a beautiful world modeled after ancient Greece.

  • I Initially Thought the Egyptian Arcade was Functionally Impossible to Complete

    Very difficult, but doable and enjoyable! Did ok in getting to level B-6. Some very challenging puzzles, but after working through the complexities, managed to solve each one to this point. Great graphics and a few real head scratchers. But then came to Egyptian Arcade in level B-6. The first part of the puzzle is manageable with some thought and deft maneuvering. After trying it multiple times, I concluded the second part was impossible. There is only a second or two in which to move a small distance with a jammer, then turn and jam a mine that is coming at you. And then you have to stop jamming the mine, shift the jammer to a portal, grab the other jammer, bring it inside the enclosure, then release both jammers to close the portal before the mine can get through. This must be done when the jammed mine is only feet from you. Needs another jammer, or more run distance on the first mine outside the portal… And then I figured out how to beat it and found out it wasn’t functionally impossible after all. Just very difficult. But managed to get through the whole game eventually (with a little help from an online walk-through.) Over all I recommend the game. But be prepared for doing some of the levels time after time after time until you finally see a way to make all of the pieces come together. It would be better if you were able to reconstitute at the last safe place you were before blowing up. The way it is you can get nearly to the end of a scenario, blow up, and go right back to the beginning to do it all over again, even the parts you successfully navigated the first time around. Tedious.
