Description

Pay once, play forever! All future chapter updates included! Circulous is an episodic mystery narrative puzzle game. In this first-person game you take on the persona of Amanda Trouser. You have just been let go from your job. After packing your things, you wonder what you are going to do with the rest of your life. How will you afford your apartment? On the subway ride home you see an add for a job opening at Circulous…it’s almost as if the ad was put there just for you! You apply, and you end up hired! That is only the beginning of the story. Your work at Circulous is exciting, but soon you realize there may be more to this company than you’ve ever imagined. Corporate espionage, conspiracy theories and moral dilemmas lead you through challenging puzzles that will test your wits, your allegiances, and what you think you know about…everything. Engagement This puzzle game pulls you in and makes it as immersive as possible. Scenes use parallax movement to make it feel like you are in Amanda’s world. The opening scene (in which you are fired) uses story and humor to quickly place you in Amanda’s shoes. Each scene is an animated environment that invites you to explore and notice things that may or may not be important to the story or puzzles. The use of your phone (or iPad) is an intuitive way to keep you in the game but also make it feel as if you are truly using your device alongside the game and not just a gimmick. The OS feels like a true OS and makes the immersive nature of the game much more enjoyable.

  • I'm not happy

    I paid for this game & I really like it a lot, however some of the puzzles are to hard for me.. which is fine, but I would really love it if the developers would put helps for the second part of the game! They keep telling me what to do over email, but that takes months at a time, and by then I don't even remember what I played! I can't get on Discord it's not so helpful to me.. please please put the game hints on the game!
  • Act 1 is great

    I really enjoyed Act 1, but it appears I will have to wait 11 real-time hours to leave the coffee shop at the beginning of act 2 (and actually more like 23, since I won’t be playing it first thing in the morning.) This seems like an awfully bad design choice.
  • Help!!!

    I love this game but ever since I started act 2, I am stuck at the cafe. I have the ryde app downloaded but every time I try to go on the phone in the game and go to the virtual world, it crashes at the computer screens, and exits the game. I don’t know what to do. Plus the ryde app says there’s no routes available. One star because I don’t know what to do ..
  • Love game but stuck due to crash

    I absolutely love this game so far. It is fun and holds my attention, which is hard due to severe ADHD. It is absolutely a 5-star game but I’m hesitant to give it due to one issue. The issue is that I’m now stuck at one point in the game due to it crashing. It crashes at the same spot for the past 24 hours (each time I try to open the message from the HR rep.) I really wish this would be fixed so I can continue to play. ☺️
  • An absolute blast to play

    Clever, delightful puzzles in an engaging mystery storyline. This is weird, but I get the impression from the tone of the game that these devs are highly intelligent, but also fun to hang out with. Note that basic science literacy is helpful for solving some puzzles
  • Garbage!

    A total waste of a dollar. Makes no sense even with clues.
  • I need help

    I am stuck on the part when the power goes out. I have no idea what to do.
  • Great game, usually buggy

    As others have mentioned, I am stuck at the cafe at the beginning of Act 2. Ryde app doesn’t appear on my phone. After entering that virtual world, the screen goes gray/freezes, I have to restart, and I end up in the same spot. The latest update did not fix this problem. Incidentally, I tried to report this separately on your website, but that’s also buggy and wouldn’t permit it.
  • Crashes

    It’s a good game, but it crashes so often that it’s not playable. I was stuck at the end of act 1 for well over a month, because the game would repeatedly crash. Today, I was able to play for about 15 minutes and now it’s crashing repeatedly again at the shifty.com part in act 2.
  • Second chapter issues

    I loved the first chapter (hence 5 stars) and was super excited when I saw that there has been another added! However, I just started the second chapter, and every time I go into the ’invisible’ (?) space the screen crashes and takes me back to the main menu. When I press play again, I’m back in the café and have to start the scene again with the same results. Is this part of the game? Am I missing something?? If not there are some serious bugs that need ironed out with this new update. UPDATE: Thanks for the response! I have updated the game to the latest version, and am in the cafe, but when I try to book a Ryde to the hospital it says no routes can be found and to try again later??
