    Monetization in the game is overwhelmingly criticized due to excessively frequent, intrusive, and long ads, including banner ads that block gameplay and pop-ups that disrupt the experience. Many players report that paying to remove ads is ineffective, with ads still appearing post-purchase, leading to frustration and calls for refunds. Although some find ads manageable if removed or limited, the heavy ad presence significantly detracts from enjoyment and immersion.

    • “No ads and a decent amount of free hints.”
    • “Really it was such a nice game and literally no ads. The story was short and good with the scenarios and finding elements in that... wow.”
    • “This game is amazing, the puzzles can be quite brain teasers, but not impossible and there are no ads whatsoever. It's a very immersive game and very hard to stop playing once you start, I love it.”
    • “Then this week they added an advertisement for "ad free" that covers the place you need to click to get rid of things you are using to complete the game.”
    • “I'm sure it's done so that you pay for the no ads option, but at this point this isn't a game, it's a non stop ads video, the game is so simple you spend more time watching the ads between each room, and don't take "free" money on the bottom path, nothing to spend it on that's worth it.”
    • “All you get is 2 ads every time.”

    The game's storyline is generally praised for being intriguing and engaging, enhancing the puzzle-solving experience with a mysterious atmosphere. However, many users express frustration over the abrupt, incomplete ending, feeling the story lacks resolution and hoping for continuation through updates. While some find the story adds depth to the gameplay, others note it can feel disjointed or secondary to the puzzles.

    • “I love the game. Some levels were too easy, but some were very challenging. I admit, there were times I had to use the hint button to get me through some of the levels, and when I used the hint button, I thought to myself, wow why didn't I get it? I'm just confused why I got to level 75 and it just ended. I didn't get to finish the storyline; what a loss of momentum in my enthusiasm to finish the story. Nonetheless, I enjoyed this game. Kudos to the creators.”
    • “The storytelling within the levels is beautiful and tragic.”
    • “The storyline is really something, keeps me curious and I really want to continue playing because of it!”
    • “I love the game, but I'm confused why it just ends at level 75. I didn't get to finish the storyline, which was a loss of momentum in my enthusiasm to complete the story.”
    • “Incomplete - there are 65 rooms to complete, but it ends abruptly without completing the story.”
    • “Beyond frustrating to be led along a plot and story and then nothing.”

    The game suffers from frequent glitches, freezes, and crashes that disrupt gameplay, with issues including disappearing items, faulty ad rewards, and unresponsive levels. Stability problems often force players to restart or reinstall the game, leading to frustration despite its overall enjoyable content. While some glitches are minor, persistent bugs and freezing significantly impact player experience.

    • “I would have given it 5 stars but it glitches and sometimes the item you need disappears. Also, if you try to watch an ad for a hint and then close the ad to get your reward, it kicks you out and makes you start the whole screen over.”
    • “After playing four levels the game freezes on loading. I had to uninstall it then install it again, but it repeats the same thing. This is puzzling me now; may I know what's really causing that?”
    • “First off, why isn't the game saved from where I left off? That's a no for me. This app keeps shutting off. I've played this level so many times; I know my way around the clues like I'm the one trying to escape. Fix the glitches.”
