The realization of what you've done suddenly hits. Upon activating the book you've unleashed an ancient curse and unwittingly released the Mannequin: a mischievous adversary who lays a challenge before you.

Fun although there will come a point i the later stages where it is impossible to finish puzzles without hints. Conveniently, the hints cost an arm and a leg. When you need to buy extra to finish a game you bought, it's a scam.

I like that it's for more than one kind of puzzle - most of the other games on here are just the same puzzle at harder and harder levels. This is one of my fav apps ever now! :D

R70%
by R####:

The puzzles are great. For those complaining about 10$ for a hint just search the web. I doubt games were created to be played by themselves instead make use of your brain.

X70%

A nice variety of puzzles. Reminds me of Professor Layton without the story sections.

X70%
by X####:

It is a great game. I love puzzles and love the fact that there are different types of puzzles. I'm not good at all of them but that's what makes great. Also love the fact that they things to the game like the valentines day puzzle. Not all developers of games do that. Great work. Hope to see more.

I installed this game when it first came out and back then it was brilliant. I reinstalled it again today as I was curious after seeing the negative comments. Unfortunately they hold merit... uninstalled it

R70%
by R####:

I bought this game for over a year and I am still trying to complete the 100 puzzles. I have 62 completed so far. I recommend and show this game to my friends and they really like it for new style. The Marlequin is cool even is main reason of the curse.

Get stuffed with your greedy in game purchase, I want some hints for free. I hate developers like you,should not have bought the game in the first place. The whole in game purchase rubbish puts me of Mobile gaming. No mention of in game purchase in game description is fraud on your customers. Wish I could give it minus stars. DO NOT BUY!

X70%
by X####:

People wanting free hints are just too lazy to think for themselves. The puzzles are easy in the beginning, though granted some can be challenging, it is still hours of fun! Really curious to know what the final puzzle is. I hope they release a "The Curse 2"

X70%
by X####:

The music and "feel" of the game remind me of Prof. Layton games. No exploration though. (not a bad thing, just means they didn't rip those games off) I just wish we could earn hints instead of buying them. I already paid for the game.

X70%
by X####:

Waste of money, don't bother buying!! Stupidly to hard right from the start and then your asked to pay $10 for hints to help you!! Thats why the makers of this game have made it so hard to do to try and get you pay more money after you have already paid for the game!!

S70%
by S####:

It was a hard game to beat and I can't say I figured it all out myself but had a blast playing it! I never used a single hint though, you can find walkthroughs online for free.

X70%
by X####:

Looks nice and had a Layton - esque feel, but it's very cheap. Ramps the difficulty up very quickly to try and get you to buy hints. Not impressed with that tbh. Wouldn't recommend it, but it's not awful or anything

X70%
by X####:

I take my previous review back. Yes, the puzzle types repeat themselves but it's worth it. No other puzzle game has kept me excited for so long. Great job!

V70%
by V####:

The hints are still not working it says error and then tries to contact the server and freezes. Other than that this is a great game! Please fix the hint issues so I can continue the game!

Constant Force Close, no support. When I reinstalled I did another level then same issues. Don't waste your money.

This game will rope you in way more than initially anticipated but is hard! In a good way though as many games become mindless wastes of time. There are definitely some genres of puzzles that I am better at then others (the riddles get ridiculous). If you are looking for a challenge, this is it!!

Z70%
by Z####:

I see all these people complaining that you have to pay for hints. Figure it out, kids! It makes the game a challenge when you're not given the answers. Definitely a worth your while puzzle game. Love it!

Z70%
by Z####:

You people should stop complaining. Gone through the ratings and some of you should seriously reconsider your game choices if you get pissed off with the developer. They didn't force you to buy the game. It was your own choice. This game is really awesome and played it a couple of times and finishing it in record time. To the developers, well done. And thank you for making a unique game. Hope to find more games like this.

Z70%
by Z####:

The puzzles are good. There are ten categories of puzzles and the difficulty level is increased with every level. The good thing about the game is you don't have to stuck on a level if you could not resolve it. You can skip the level and proceed. I have gone up to level 100 but could only resolve 55. I'll revisit the rest of the levels to solve it. I'm not good at solving Riddles; so i'll completely forgo them. I don't think I could solve all the puzzles as some of them require deep thinking. Only thing I don't like is time bound puzzles. I am not a quick thinker and this prevents me from completing certain levels. BTW, Don't bash the developer unnecessarily, think hard. If you could not, look for forums.

Z70%
by Z####:

Absolutely amazing game! The puzzles are very well thought out and become increasingly difficult to figure out, perfect for any puzzle lover! And to all the twits complaining about the cost for hints: you don't HAVE to buy them! The developer deserves to make some money for all the hard work they put into making apps like this one.

C70%
by C####:

It's a puzzle game. I mean, really. You don't need to downvote the game for failing to solve a puzzle. It's more your own fault than anyone else's. Thanks for the fun, Mojo Bones and Toy Studio.

by Z####:

Spent plenty of time on this game. For people that love puzzles, I'd definitely suggest it. I am upset that I solved all puzzles except for the "bonus" puzzle and had to wipe my tablet before finishing. No way I'm going back through all 100. Bonus puzzle was also a bit ridiculous, but still plenty of mind-testing fun.

Z70%

A paid game shouldn't have in app purchases. I'm rating one star to offset the average

F70%

It makes you think, to use your brain, use strategy, and I love the music.

R70%
by R####:

A shame the puzzles aren't more original and I wish there were some harder ones (except the sliding block puzzles, which I felt were disproportionately hard). As far as app store puzzlers go though, this is one of the harder ones and the slick design is fantastic; really well done. Highly recommended. I just wish there was a Curse 2 on the horizon! Additionally those whining about the cost of hints; you're given 6 for free, and you shouldn't need them; engage your brain, it's what puzzles are for.

R70%
by R####:

But like a previous user stated that the dev trying to make you purchase hints is straight bukkshet even after paying for it. In app purchases shouldn't be in this game. Just google the puzzles and you'll save yourself some cash

U70%
by U####:

An excellent game with fiendish puzzles and setting. However when trying to purchase hints I get Server Not Available on both WiFi and 3G. If the hints purchase worked then it would get 5 stars.

O70%
by O####:

..after the first puzzle, then game is too tough for you. Have completed over 80 puzzles without making any purchase. People need to use their brains, rather than wanting the answers handed to them on a plate.

D70%
by D####:

This is by far the best puzzle game I have ever played. It combines a variety of puzzles and has a great story to go with it. Brilliant!!!

D70%
by D####:

Great idea, could use the Google games function to sync my progress from my nexus 7 to my s3. I do find on the n7 that the touch response is very poor, I really have to press hard for buttons and actions to work. Have emailed developer.

The only downside is that you can't earn hints and you have to buy them.

Super great mix of puzzles, with some deeper puzzles mixed in.

D70%
by D####:

Essentially just 100 puzzles without plot or other gameplay. You can skip the ones you can't get and come back to them at any time. Many puzzles are variations on several core themes. Very good game if you are serious about puzzles.

D70%
by D####:

This game is too hard and I'm not smart enough to figure out most of these. The hardest part was the rotating picture, each piece looks the bloody same!

J70%
by J####:

I reckon this is a bloody good game! Don't listen to these people saying it's a rip off coz ya gotta buy hints, the whole idea is to make you think and solve the puzzles not bloody cheat just to finish it. I've had it for like 3 months and have only solved like 75 of them without 1 hint.

D70%

My frustration levels maxed out at times but I was still entertained for months with thia surprisingly challenging game. Cant wait for the next one!

80/100 puzzles solved with no hints but its gotten really tough now :P
