Ratings and reviews

The one-star rating is because of the bug in the colored marble puzzle; only three of the marbles can be seen while you are up close on the puzzle, and you have to try to grab and place them blind - which is nearly impossible. This bug is unconscionable for a paid app, as it severely hinders gameplay and essentially makes it impossible to finish the game. Please fix it, and I'll be happy to change to a 5-star rating for a fantastic game! Google Pixel users, look for a PC version instead.

Not bad! Have played this on the computer back in the late 90s. Oh the nostalgia! I'm glad I can now play it on my mobile device. All the graphics, sounds, music and gameplay are just like the computer version. A few improvements can be made, like some of the sounds don't play in full, I'm guessing because that would take more GB, the ripples in the water could move like the PC version, etc. However, I played it to the very end, pleased to see it's just like the PC version.

The greatest puzzle game ever created, and one of the greatest games of all time. This port is good, but not great. I hit a bug during the marble puzzle - the culmination of the entire game - and was unable to continue. I commend those who put in the effort to preserve this game, but I would love to see a true resoration - a full 4 - 8K re-rendering of every pannel. This game (along with Myst) deserve to be played for generations to come.
