The game crashed, and now it's now stuck on the main menu. The icons on the menu screen are unresponsive. It's impossible to play.
Great game

Totally great gaming experience, the fifth star would be there if the game isn’t crashing when loading between areas. My device is iPhone6 with 12.1.2 iOS version, in case you need to know for further crashes investigation.
Lots of potential but full of arbitrary & unnecessary frustrations

The game is fun and has potential....but there are several things that annoy the absolute crap out of me: 1. No map legend so if you can’t remember which symbol is the mining office, good effing luck. Nothing found on the developer’s website or via google searches either. 2. No “you are here” symbol on the map. 3. You can accidentally win before you’re done exploring and there’s no warning. Then you have to start completely over. Seriously. Since there are several ways to escape, this is just extra stupid. 4. I got the “All Aboard!” achievement, which is great I guess, but now the announcement - which takes up half the screen - pops up all the time. For. The. Love...sigh. 5. Apparently there’s new stuff in the latest update but I’ve only encountered a couple small new areas and there’s now these weird people shaped posters that give you useless information & minor backstory. And guess what?! If you’ve played through before and just want to go back to see the new stuff, NOPE! You have to play the whole fracking game from the beginning. YAAAAAAAY. 6. The “quest tracker” only tracks a few quests...the main ones, of course, but also some of the side ones but only 1 or 2. Why can’t the game track all your quests?! I’m all for writing things down for an escape game but not something as basic as what the game wants me to do. So unnecessarily frustrating.
Can’t open library gate!

Should be able to use keys, but it says it’s locked from other side. Can’t move forward in game. I really wanted to play this game!
Great game! Needs tweaking.

This is a great game, however it is in need of some tweaking. Like where the heck am I on the map? What does the hint button do but count down? Wouldn't it be nice if, when you double tap you would zoom in "when" there is something to "find", such as a token? Especially useful for those with not so good eyes when hunting pixels. Other than that, it's still a great escape game!
Love it but frustrated

Different kind of exploration game, very enjoyable. BUT I’m trapped in the miner’s house and can find no way out. Developer responded with a clue but it was not for the place I am stuck. Would love to know if there’s a glitch in the game.
Continually crashes, now will not load

I downloaded the app a couple of days ago and found that the app crashes on my iPad Mini 2. I have to restart it while I’m playing. However, now the app doesn’t even load. I get to the Start page and nothing happens. I’ve tried numerous times to close and restart the app to no avail. I want a refund!!! That being said, it’s also horrendously boring. All you do is try to find keys and cards to open stuff and find MORE keys and cards. There are NO puzzles here. What a total disappointment. I love puzzle games, and this one is is a hide-and-seek game.
In awe

Honestly, finding keys and cards instead of solving traditional puzzles does not seem like I will enjoy in paper. However, I gave it a go as it seemed really good nonetheless. I am honestly blown away. This is the best experience I have had last year. It is so polished and detailed to the point it’s hard to express it with words. Anyone who hasn’t played this gem absolutely needs to.
Love this game - but bug in sewer?

I really love this game! OK, I get it. It’s not for everyone and I have read the other comments. I love the concept of the tool cards and the keys and the tokens. I don’t need or want complicated puzzles. I love just wandering in a deserted town with the beautiful ambient lighting and discovering more and more hidden places. I’m almost through all of the game and have found nearly all of the keys, tokens, and checkpoints. Still working on finding one library checkpoint. The only problem is - and I’m not sure if this is a bug or not - after getting access to the employee break room in the sewer area - there is a lockbox to open. I’ve played through the game twice now (on an ipad) and both times when I open the box, the dialogue says I have found a tool card. But it doesnt show what the tool card is - as it usually does - and then the game just freezes. I can’t do anything on screen and I have to close the app and then reopen. When I reopen the game and continue the game, it lets me proceed from where I left off - thankfully - but no new key card has been added to my inventory. Not sure what tool card there should be or if it will impact the game moving forward.
