- “Great game and storyline.”
- “This game seems more like an animated story.”
- “I really love the game and the amazing story.”
- “The stories are too short and on top of that other cases are still in development, which is ridiculous when you guys put little effort into each story. It doesn't make sense why other cases are still in development.”
- “It's a storyline that you follow, there is no thinking involved. What very little you solve can't really be called a puzzle, and you just have to do nothing but tap 'next'.”
- “Immediately gory and triggering, and then you have to pay to continue the story.”

The monetization model of the game restricts access to later episodes, requiring in-app purchases after completing the first part, which many users find unfair. Players express a desire for alternative options, such as ad-supported gameplay, to unlock additional content. This has led to lower ratings despite enjoyment of the initial episode.
- “No ads, which is really nice.”
- “It allows you to play two parts of the mystery, but when it's time to move on to part three, it charges you for in-app purchases to continue playing.”
- “I don't think it's very fair that you complete episode 1 but can't play any of the other episodes without paying. I wish, like other games, that you could use either ads or pay for them. This is why I'm giving a 2-star rating even though I absolutely loved the first episode.”
