Great game I like having to complete quests! I would have given 5 stars but 2 things need improving. First is how long it takes to get energy back. You use a lot for just 1 level and the game is so addicting but unless you pay money to buy energy you can't play for long. The other is having to find the same items over and over in the same scenes. It needs to be changed up more.

Great game and graphics. I'm also in a wonderful player group where people give you a lot of help with ideas for playing the game. Wish it was easier to earn Rubies which are necessary to play the game. They give some people discount purchase offers for them to buy rubies , but, they don't give them to everyone. Not sure what you have to do to get them as I never have. I know some get the discounts because they talk about it in the Facebook group. Really enjoy the game, but, not sure how much longer I can afford to play it. An upgrade is coming soon, hopefully they've included more ways to earn the rubies.

J70%
by J####:

This is not your normal hidden object game, which is what interested me in the first place. It starts out easy, as many games do, because they don't want to scare you off but quickly becomes harder so you're not bored. There are many scenes to explore, & there are different modes. Main complaint is that energy regenerates twice as slow as any other game I've ever played.

Q70%
by Q####:

Since the update the game does not upload correctly. The ads are annoying. It takes to long to play the game because of the ads. I've enjoyed the game since I've started playing but it takes to many coins to open new locations. It takes to much energy to play Rapture theatre. The more the update the more the problems. I'm disappointed in the new updates

Updated yesterday now have gifts that wont open. Incorrect graphics. Hoping there is a new update soon. It tells me "content in download queue" it has been at 86% for days. Please respond to my email fault report My star rating is due to lack of response

Q70%
by Q####:

Amazing! Just, keep an option to increase the coins and especially rubies by completing tasks or something, anything other than the option of buying. How much would we buy? And everything is available at the cost of rubies. So if we could increase our rubies by watching some ads, it would be great. Otherwise, it's just a waste of money.

Q70%
by Q####:

I can't get around the tutorial in the beginning! Annoying! Why or where is there a skip option button? I can't even get out of it unless I stop the game cause it licks me in to where I cannot even find the settings or pause to hault the process just to see of there was a skip option! I already know the manuevers, I played the other hidden versions before! Ugh.

G70%
by G####:

It's a bit annoying that after the new update that some locations take soo much of energy, and that energy replenishes at a slower rate. For example, to enter the rapture theatre, it now take 88 energy!! And that's without an anomaly. That's about 2/3 of my total energy. And I see the energy requirements have gone up for most of the locations. Please fix this.

H70%
by H####:

Very addictive but wish you could have more energy instead of having to wait so long, or buy it. I have updated the game but now having trouble with some levels like crystals saying in download very annoying please fix before I uninstall the game.

Pretty good. The game doesn't quite fit my Samsung S6. I'm not a fan of having to collect the "prizes" by tapping. I tend to miss them. Auto collect would be great. Fun so far, very fluid. Only one crash and was able to restart immediately and continue.

F70%
by F####:

Awesome game, buuuuuuuut... The Crystal mini game causes the game to crash (same with Cards of Fate). During the tutorial it describes how a tool helps you and tells you to use it, but the tool section has no pictures. Its completely blank. I can't advance the quest, please fix ASAP. PS:I used to play hidden object games in the past but they devolved for me. SO GLAD I FOUND OUT ABOUT YOU GUYS! I never thought I would get to enjoy my favorite kind of puzzle game once more. Thank you.

Game will no longer load, don't know if it's due an update. Another quest I won't be able to complete in time. After a week of not working in deleted and reinstalled and guess what I'm back to level 1 as it won't let me sign back in so that's all the money I spent wasted

Q70%
by Q####:

Its not great . I love playing it but when it tells you your energy levels are good to play again and then when you start playing it tells you you cant carry on as youve no energy left this is rubbish and is going to make me wipe it off my phone. And stop it with the begging for money ads that jump up all the time worse than my dog !!!!! And the book and the tshirt and the cutlery and the bog paper. Just make it simple to keep on playing and without the ads

Q70%
by Q####:

Was a lot of fun at first but eventually it took 110 energy out of 160 to find a goal item. This is average on all goal items. Takes forever to gain any substantial energy. Be sure to pay attention to drops when first opening game. That can help some. Graphic are very nice!!

Have NOT been able to play since my tablet updated other Android 6.0. Keeps saying everything is in the download que but unable to get anything downloaded. STILL doesn't work with Android Marshmallow on the Samsung Galaxy Tab tablet. Uninstalling AGAIN until you fix it to work with Marshmallow. When is a new update that works going to become available???? It is working on my Droid Turbo 2 after latest update.

Fun game with lots of quests and differentiated tasks to keep things fresh. I like collecting many achievements! Character art isn't to my liking. Also i dont like never ending games as they get boring after a while. I'll play this for a bit and get fun achievements but since I want to buy completed one off games I probably won't play for too long. But i also reinstall never ending games when I'm bored with other games. I like the minigames

Q70%
by Q####:

I did love it...played everyday until I had completed every story in the book but one. Then I logged on and was still at level 85 but had lost all progress. I had been at least a Level 5 on every location and now they are all locked again as if I never played. If u play do not get too attached to your progress and definitely do not make my mistake and actually spend money on rubies.

X70%

The game is good and addictive . Keeps you thinking and its not always the same. Had some problems and had to reinstall it. The last update is a mess. I have been kicked out btwice but i lost my lives and progress and i cant get the game to pause.

Q70%
by Q####:

It keeps trying to get me to buy "ritual coins" and it freezes on that pop up...I can only search one area but cannot collect my rewards because of that stupid pop up. Can't close it OR buy the stupid coins to get rid of it. Very frustrating!!!

Q70%
by Q####:

Like the game. Graphics are great. Occasionally have to click on items multiple times before it accepts. Ramp up on energy cost to get in sites, particularly with anomalies, greater than ramp up of total energy. It should not cost half of my total energy to play one site. Would like to be able to play more.

Game keeps lo king upon me whiletrying to go past an area that wants me to buy some coins. Can't get any further in game. Please see if you can fix this problem as soon. As possible.I really like this game. Quite addictive and entertaining. Same problem keeps happening. Bdts me to a screen wa ting me to buy coins, doesn't gi e a price, and won't let me out of said screen. Has caused me to lose items, crystals,etc Please fix this HUGE problem. Other than that, it could possi ly be my favorite game. Please, please, please fix this.

Latest update wiped out all existing collection items! Go to collect when I have all the needed catalysts and the collection items are gone! :( It already took overlong to gather collection items and catalysts, having to do it over is ridiculous!

Q70%
by Q####:

The rubies I earn disappear during the special challenges. A few bugs. Seems like energy that I didn't use disappears too. Amazing graphics! I love the challenges, but it has become frustrating when things earned disappear. I hope they fix the rubies disappearing.

Q70%
by Q####:

The game freezes, if there is an option of exchanging gifts in the game then why this dictatorship, the gift key turns grey and it's not possible to send gifts. With such an expensive game that makes you guys roll in cash don't you need to ensure that the game runs smoothly. Too bad. Why are you giving quests of a location that does not exist in this game.

G70%
by G####:

Too hard for me. Games are all quite hard, and hardly any 'freebies' to help. Some other games give a small daily bonus, just for visiting, which means I can make some progress, like helping to solve HO puzzles with a compass etc. This one pretty well forces player to spend $$$. Slightly reluctantly (it's very pretty) I think I'll uninstall it.

I70%
by I####:

Pretty good to play, there are practically no opportunities to earn gems instead of having to buy them. I am at level 69 and have been through the chapel basement 35 times and still haven't been given the diary to progress the next story. Considering this is one of the expensive rooms in the game 35 times is a bit ridiculous

Take a day to fill up full energy but only 15 mins or so to spend all energy... some scene cost 80+ energy and 2 mins later half energy gone... don't waste your time on this game, the stickiness is just not there... you guys need to extend the play time a bit (more stickiness) if users want to log in everyday and play for like half and hour or so... scenes need to cost way less energy... game is just not fun anymore if you log in for the day, played 3 or 4 scenes, and already your energy out in about 10 to 15 minutes... then wait another day?! Come on guys... this is just another of 1000+ find the difference games... no one will log in and pay to play every day... people will just stop playing

Addictive game, interesting storyline but why when I have disabled all permissions for storage etc does this game keep adding over 150 video files to my sd card? Very annoying!! Update to review 4th March....once again just deleted over 300 various files from this game on my storage they're not necessary because the game runs perfectly well now I've deleted them AGAIN!!

by Q####:

Patience needed to get to the point where you have enough energy to play for a decent amount of time, but it is worth it. UPDATE: G5 appear to have reduced the special event time. Normally I need the full time to finish the event. It feels like G5 are trying to force me to buy crystals. Poor show... Reducing my rating to 3 stars.

If only the in-game chat feature was better, giving gifts and receiving them would be easier. Also, I wish you could request certain artifacts from friends. I like the game, but it takes too long to receive certain artifacts

This game is the best game I've ever played. It has so many twists to it and plenty of different things to do. Only thing wrong is you run out of lives lol.

This is the best game ever. Even though I don't spend money in the game, I can still play for a good amount of time. The updates are brilliant and keep the interest going. I play every day and never get bored.

I was really in love with this game at first. Then, once I got some time under my belt the purchase push is out of hand. I understand having the option for people who want that, though it has gotten to the point that I can't play for any amount of time without being bombarded with advertising to spend money to play and achieve goals if the game. Extremely dissapointed.

Loved this game till it made me update. Now it wont let me destroy the monsters or play the gems game (my favourite) since it made me do an update. Keeps saying its still updating and need to queue. Have uninstalled and reinstalled still doing the same. Unless you can fix this then i will be uninstalling for good.

T70%
by T####:

It takes a lot of energy per game and if you win you only get 5 or 6 back. A very expensive game and would love to earn more diamonds. Also keep on winning the same thing of a collection over and over, like the flowers. Daily treasure always has flowers. How about mixing it up a bit? The enchanted ballroom is very one color and it's difficult to distinguish items. But love the game. Help us out now. Thanks!

Love the game so much, BT disappointed when my purchase went twice gone not capture in my the other account and all went restart from 1st level. Now I need to use other account to play it. So disappointed as I had reach very high level in the other device and now start new on this device

by Q####:

Have a great time looking for things. The pop ups to for your collections is a little annoying. Sonis the constint ads to by some book, if Intell it no I think it should remember. Also the clock timer for playing the games moves to fast. But the layout is beautiful since the last update. Awesome.

Y70%
by Y####:

The further you're in the game the harder it is to play - all beacause of the energy amount taken in specific locations. Right now I have like 100 energy and the temple cost like 20. And it's 1 energy per every 3 minutes - you have to wait like an hour to play just 1 game, where's the logic in that? Other than that, I enjoy it

Q70%
by Q####:

Pushes difficulty to far. I know the makers want to make money from users, but as the more involved you get within the game, the harder they it make to succeed. We all want a challenge, but when finding the hidden objects, they seem sometimes impossible to find, like just always one to find and even with plenty of time left, you search all round to no avail. It's a game on many levels, hundreds of things to find and achievements to be made. That's fine, I don't mind that, that's the fun of it. I just think keeping people interested and more likely to spend the odd bit if money here and there to progress, would be more profitable long term if you didn't appear to be "cheating" people out of a genuine chance of completing tasks. People just want to pass the time with a challenge and a bit of fun, without braking the bank to do it. Thanks.
