Really fun! This game has helped me while away a wet and windy Saturday afternoon! The graphics, being real photographs, are fantastic. I agree with other reviewers that more story would be good and I would have loved an interactive map as there are SO many locations to visit. I had to use the hints a lot to help me remember where to go! I missed having HO scenes but, all in all, I really enjoyed it.

Loved this game Game was fun, graphics fine, no ads, no technical issues. Like others have mentioned the puzzles are pretty simple, but enough to keep interest. I like that hints didn't give away solution,but just tell where to go. I played in short sessions and this helped get me started without a lot of wandering around when the map really opened up. I will definitely be happy to buy whatever is next from this company

Fun game Enjoyable game, it would have been nice if the map would teleport you to where you want to go rather than having to trudge back and forth all the time. The puzzles we're not too difficult, and most were not too easy (ie you could do them even with a found clue). Over not to bad a game.

Like the curate's egg ... ... it is good in parts. The artwork is good quality, but not art (just a bit of photography and simple Photoshop). The game engine is very simple (by today's standards) but seems reliable. Gameplay is mostly solving puzzles which are decent but a bit childish. There is almost no plot or intellectual coherency. I love these mystery games, but many people will hate this game, and I am disappointed by its lack of depth.

Sue Brim

Great game! The puzzles are challenging but not overly complicated. You aren't doing a lot of unnecessary running around. It was long enough to make it worth the money. I like that they don't require invasive permissions.

Tom Knight

Not bad. A bit on the easy side. Well OK I thought the graphics were pretty unconvincing, and the puzzles were pretty easy. And the last puzzle: was it meant to have a clue? Or maybe it had been toned down from the solution I thought it should have been which would have been pretty hard to get to. (Maybe impossible) The only thing is that well the puzzles are supposed to require logic but the game map makes no logical sense at all and most of the object puzzles have fairly obvious inconsistencies! Haha! It was fun though so who cares!...

Great little adventure game This is (in my view) about the ideal length for an adventure game. Took a few hours, not so long you forget where everything is, enough puzzles to be fun but not too taxing. Nice.

Steve Mazza May 29, 2016

Fun light puzzler Nice puzzler. Will be easy for adults, a bit hard for kids. Very pretty scenes. Easy and fast navigation is a big plus. Mysterious atmosphere, but not too spooky. Some magical elements, but nothing graphic, and not likely to offend most parents.

Alma Ionescu August 25, 2016

Good game Looks good, has decent length, good story, and there aren't any of those puzzles that only make sense by a stretch of imagination. Some back tracking though, but not really bad. I like that it works the spatial memory.

Kerri Coady February 25, 2016

Good game Good and challenging (but not ridiculous). Used the clues a few times. Played while i was sick and it really passed the time. I am going to download other games from them now

Ian H October 2, 2015

Looking for the next letter Uncle Henry Some of us like the fact there is not a long engrossing story. Just simple finding clues and remembering where they go. Fun

Dhew Agustin February 7, 2016

Help me in labyrinth Enjoy this game!! But im stuck in labyrinth. I'm already follow blue scene but in the half of path i touch the blue scene and back to previous path. Somebody help me!!! 😱😱😱

Jude Roberts September 30, 2015

Blackthorn Castle I loved this game. Great puzzles. Hint feature only let's you know what scene requires something rather than giving you the solution. Makes you use your brain on what you need to do. Great graphics

Al Scarbrough December 30, 2015

VERY Good Game This is a game that has so much more to it than it seems at first. TONS to do & see & it is all very interesting. The artwork/scenes are spectacular & very immersive. No glitches or freezeups. LOVE the simplicity of movement through the world of the game. Simply touch the way you want to go. The developer did an awesome job on this game in every way. Very much worth the money. Great job, guys! (Acer Iconia A1-830 8.0" - Android 4.4.3)

Anthea Robertson July 26, 2016

Too easy It was a really simple plot and too easy. I would have liked to be able to teleport to the required scene and perhaps for scenes where there was no longer anything to do to be marked. Also would have been good to be able to see the clues when you were solving the puzzle rather than having to go back out. Worth what you pay but only because it's ad free.

Billie Jo Beyer July 23, 2016

Ok For The Money Its worth the price, but hard to navigate. Wish you can click on where you need to go, then bring you right to the scene. Had to scroll map all over to see where the hints told me to go. On some puzzles it wouldn't let u skip. Had to go to cheats to figure out puzzles, to go further. Had to use hint a lot to figure out what to do next. It was a fun game, just hard to play.

Chris Dye October 24, 2015

Great game Really enjoyed it. A better storyline would have been nice. Liked that I could put it down, then a day or two later easily pickup where I was.

Joy Boyett September 22, 2015

Needs more details of story in the game. Really TELL a story if there is going to be one. IT just didn't feel like the story was much involved with the point of the game.

Karen Nouak October 9, 2015

Brilliant The graphics are fantastic the puzzles are fun and the game set up keeps you interested. I'd love to see more, a continuation of the story would be fun. Excellent game thanks

Josee Leon September 24, 2015

Really enjoyes No fancy animation/graphics required. I really enjoyed the puzzles and the search. It would have made things easier to be able to access areas with map. Perfect hints.

Christine R August 23, 2016

This game is good value for the money. I put it on my phone as I was going to be traveling and wanted something to do on the plane and hanging around airports, etc. I ended up getting several hours of game play. The puzzles aren't terribly hard, my biggest problem was trying to remember where I had seen things. There is a layout available of all the locations you have been to, and a hint system that gives you just enough of a nudge in the right direction (I used it a few times!). I really miss the old adventure style games (King's Quest, Zork, etc.) so if the folks over at Lone Wolf wanted to create something like that I will buy it :-)! But this game is a start in that direction and I will probably buy another one in the series.

Janine Latessa May 14, 2016

Excellent game I really enjoyed your game and I'll admit I was almost ready to quit I didn't think I'd ever figure out the turn off all the lights thing but I persevered through it and if you start at the the top and work your way down to the bottom you'll shut off all the lights !! Great graphics and great job creating all your games !!

Tim Sanner August 23, 2016

I really enjoyed this This was fun and time consuming. I thought it was well designed and will look for other games by Lonely Wolf.

Johnnie Weddell January 18, 2017

I would like a refund, the game would not let me return to scene 54. I liked enchanted but this was a waste of money. Please refund!

Liz Rees-Jones September 17, 2015

Satisfying It's annoying to buy a game like this and have it last 10 minutes. This game lasts a long time and had a ton of scenes.

Sarah Madeline January 15, 2016

Having trouble! The levers in the knight helmet is just a black screen please fix that I have a Samsung s4

A Millman December 10, 2016

Can't rate what I can't play. So many issues with the download after paying that it was a waste of time.

LynSil September 21, 2015

Great game!!! Love this type of puzzle game; gather clues, solve puzzles and figure out where to go next. I also like that it does not require unnecessary permissions. Thank you Lone Wolf Games for not spying. I hope to see more games like this.

Susan harding October 31, 2015

Great game for free Only took a few hours, but it was free and entertaining and good for a rainy day!

Paul Winstone March 7, 2016

Short an' sweet Good puzzling but fairly easy. Played well with no bugs, but lacked a sense of momentum. Pleasant time waster.

jkj yuio April 28, 2016

amusing nice drawings. entertaining but fairly simple game mechanic of find the thing to find another thing in mostly linear fashion.

Frank Tedesco November 9, 2016

Broken or inoperative hints/items; Pixel-C on Nougat 7.1 I expect more from this Dev. $ wasted. Backtracking is excessive; no transport via map view. Boo.

Elyssa Moseley October 1, 2015

Fun Good puzzle solving journey. Lone wolf has great and engaging games. Not too hard not too easy, Myst-like

Lisa Simpson January 2, 2016

Many puzzles, good value I enjoyed this, but I was heavily reliant on hints as there wasn't a logical flow. I had to Google a walk through at one point. Good puzzles kept me going.

Sara Marple September 20, 2015

Great game Thoroughly enjoyed this game, hints were cleverly done and gave just enough detail to help but without spoiling the experience.

Sonya Ferrar March 8, 2016

Fun I am enjoying the game but every time I try to get a clue it directs you to scene 13 every single time, no matter what location I am at. Maybe it's just me.

Barb Greer October 19, 2015

Blackthorn Castle Enjoyed it. Great graphics, nice puzzles. Easy but also challenges just enough. Fun.

Susie W. October 1, 2015

Make more games Lonewolf... I have played all your games and enjoyed every one. Please make another one soon. :)

Lynn Rorberg December 27, 2015

Very fun Loved the scenery. Challenging, but not so difficult that you want to give up.

Nobby McDibdabs September 28, 2015
