Mystery on Telescope Hill Reviews

Solid Puzzler

Kroz Hog

This game is solid, and a decent way to pass a few hours. The puzzles are moderately challenging and, unlike in some games, are organic to the story and the environment. The puzzles are also more well constructed than in some games in this genre, avoiding repetitive slider and combination lock puzzles. The only downside to me may be that the game is a tad on the short side. Overall, I like the Aircamp games, but this is probably the least of the three; I think Chimera Labs and Beyond Time are better games, and twice as long. Even so, Telescope Hill carries the same solid, organic puzzle style those games do, and that I think elevates the Room and House of DaVinci games. The Aircamp games aren’t quite as good as those, but they’re close, and worth playing.

Waste of money

I just bought this app and it is horrible. Don’t bother. I can’t get it to work - and it won’t show up full screen

Not a fan.

Doesn’t work well, pixelated and too large

Hire a copy proofer!

Short but fun! Same with their other game, I found soooo many typos and grammar mistakes, yikes. But was a fun sci-fi game.

Horrible

This game looked like it had promise, and in some ways it does, but it’s far off the mark. There appears to have been a lot of work that went into Telescope Hill. It’s a big game, lots going on, many scenes and locations. Where it falls flat is in the execution. First and most important is the the low resolution. The art looks like it has been enlarged too many times, to the point that the scenes are out of focus and confusingly fuzzy. There is no defining sharpness at all. Add to this the sophomoric sound (which I simply turned off), poor language skills, and the vague, often unresponsive tapping points and you have what is in the end a really tiresome disappointment. I just couldn’t stick it. But I can’t brush it off with only one star, because it does have a lot of promise. It badly needs to be redone, though, perhaps by a more experienced and/or skillful team?

More please

This is the 2nd game I completed from Aircamp. The puzzles got harder as you went further into the game. Lots of comparing more than 2 sets of data to figure out answers. A paper and pen is necessary!! I like it. Challenging. Not just fumbling around until you hit on the right answer by chance. Well designed, good music - worth every minute of your time.
