Freezing

Have had the app for a long time. It worked really well for quite a while. It has recently started freezing up. Big bummer as my son and I play this a lot.

Great game, but app crashes every time i play it.

Online is broken

Buyer beware. App will freeze or crash, and it’s impossible to play a game with a friend. Refunding immediately.

Keeps crashing

Fun game, but is unstable with latest iOS.

Fun game but desperately needs an “undo” button

I read this comment above several times before downloading and I couldn’t agree more. Solid game, definitely a good puzzle, but I think it would receive a 5th star from me if I had the ability to “undo” and go back to select a different action if I change my mind once I select the action I’m gonna do.

Poorly balanced

As other reviewers have suggested, this game is poorly balanced. I don’t have a problem with the AI, because I think it would be easier to beat if the game were designed better. The biggest problem seems to be the suspect cards that give Jack extra sandglasses, which prematurely ends the game. The detectives have 6 turns to find Jack, but if he picks up a card that gives him 2 sandglasses on the first turn and another that also gives him 2 sandglasses on the second turn, that’s game over. That’s not the AI being clever—I can win in 2 turns doing that if I’m playing as Jack, too! Playing as Jack on any difficulty is way easier than playing as Sherlock on the easiest setting. It’s no fun when your AI opponent has the game mechanics working in their favor and you never get the full 6 turns to do your best. The suspect cards should be reworked or just removed entirely.

Can I get a refund?

Cannot play online duel. They game crashes and kicks us both out of the game.

Awful tutorial

Saw It in DC

I’ve never played he game before. This tutorial does not even explain the basic of the game — like which characters are portrayed by which icons and what makes something “visible” versus not.
