What tablet players say

  • Art is absolutely wonderful but the puzzle answers made no sense. Controls are janky as heck. Looks blurry on my large iPad screen. Had a tutorial basically walk me through the entire thing

  • They took the game straight from pc to mobile without putting any extra effort to make the game easier to play. Even though I have a pro max its hard to see and control. I kept clicking on the wrong place and character already takes years to move. Thats game design but hurts when you do the same thing twenty times.

  • The game doesn't look good on an iPhone pro Max, could you make it look like Samorost 3? (Full screen with good resolution)

  • While the music and graphics were entertaining, the storyline complimented the play. However, playing on a Iphone had many drawbacks. Mainly my finger was larger than areas with up to three choices. The graphics just don't fit this platform. I later downloaded to the iPad making things easier. Manu objects were so obscure to the use it was tedious. I found myself only staying motivated by watching the action playthrough on utube. Without it, I would have abandoned the game. Puzzles were thoughtful amd challenging. Also, they were way random. Who expects to receive tokens after playing video games??!!

  • It’s a very interesting puzzle with a story. It does make you think and he very attentive and observ the little details. It does provide Hits for those times when you get stuck, but without spoiling the game. Music and special effects and ambient sounds are superb, specially on my 12.9” iPad Pro M2. I also play it in the AppleTV and iPhone.
