The game was pretty fun. Got about 440 puzzles in, then I managed to get the game to crash immediately on opening it.

Luckily.

Follow this amazing game since it launched,now I'm glad to see the witness on AppStore!

It's not often that you find a game this, well, different. I've played this game through twice now, and I'm still not bored. Graphics are beautiful, sound is amazing, and the puzzles are exactly how they should be. Frustrating. The game does a great job of letting you figure out how each puzzle is solved. I've never played a game as great as this one, and I have absolutely no complaints. This game is worth every cent of the price.

The graphics are fine but the puzzles are all the same. In general the game is boring and frustrating, not an immersive experience like you’d get from a myst-type game. The sound is nothing to write home about. Not worth $10, and not worth my time.

We need better control

I dont like the controls, why is so hard to give us controls like the console. Lean from ‘Life Is Strange’ no iPad Please

Slowly falling in love

I am honestly not into repetitive puzzle game, and The Witness looks just like that, at first. The game starts out slow, presenting a segment of the world I am in where board-like puzzles are everywhere and solving them is absolutely crucial to advance. I wasn’t thrilled when my first impression was that it’s going to be like solving these puzzles in a beautiful park for the entire game. However, things start to impress me once I get to explore how vast, how mysterious, and how eye-poppingly beautiful the whole island is. There are moments I even think to myself, after seeing all kinds of beautifully created locations that I know a lot of love has been put into, that even just “sightseeing” around the entire island alone is already worth the money. Once I get intrigued by the beauty of the island, the puzzles become the reward of what I get to see and explore further. The story also unfolds slowly. The best part is: I have now come to love these board puzzles, for its ever-evolving nature throughout the game, and its cleverness put into them. This is not a game to binge, to play it all in one sitting. It’s a game to take it slow. Play it now and then. Solve some puzzles, walk around, enjoy Einstein’s quotes dubbed by an electrifying voice, and then put the game down for a while. Do that for a few days, and I can guarantee that you will walk away with something you love about this game.

Total rip off. Purchased this for $9.99. The game consists of repetitive walking into walls and tracing lines on a grid. There is no progress, just monotony. Do not waste your money!

Not worth the price

If you like playing the same type of puzzle over and over again then this is the game for you. But there are no instructions, no clues, you are playing the game blind. Also all your work amounts to nothing, don’t expect any sort of story line or any sort of big ending. Their are no explanations during the game or at the end. Major disappointment for all the rave review it has.

Too AWESOME!

I start to play this game, and I can’t even off from that game, because it too awesome and I really love that all kind of maze, because I’m skill with maze, but I most time stumped and I don’t know where I am in (which is now that I have my map) , which mean I need video for help, when I became skill, I can do that without video. Here one thing, is that I’m deaf, and I can’t hear anything (well I can hear a extremely bit) even with my headphone ?, because that are too fill of bird and animal voice. I hate ending, because when I’m in weird elevator and look at that island and everything was off and laser went off and back to box, which make me though, that mean I had to do start all over, so I think that is bad ending, but now I work on find a secret ending, and environment puzzle. Overall, I REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCH AS SAME AS MAZE! I will say 100/5 stars Which mean this game is my first rank of favorite game! Thank so much, and I still deaf! Make this game easy for deaf people! AWESOME WORK THERE! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH! 100/5 ⭐️

Fun but minor issue

So I have been playing this game for quite a while and I just got to the desert ruin puzzles and I was so clueless as to what to do. Then I looked it up and it said that it is all about physical orientation and lighting. So then I go back to the game and I move around and I get the first one and then after that I could barely see anything with the light reflecting puzzles. So for those I had to just keep guessing until I got up to one of the puzzles. I was so confused because that was about secret patterns through lighting and I could not see anything. One solution would be too put little spots on the ground so we know where to look or make us be able to see the pattern at a wider angle. Otherwise it is a good game with fun puzzles (not desert ruins) and it makes me use my brain a lot. For ten dollars this game should really have no issues and developers should fix any problems on the reviews (not saying you have to answer mine immediately). I hope this gets fixed.
