Too many ads
Too many ads
Ads suck
Stupid ads
Hard
This game is hard. All of the levels are super hard, especially the one where she has to run away from a stranger. She has to set up traps. There’s like 50 items how am I supposed to know? I just don’t like this game and I had to do an ad for every single one and there’s like billions of ads I don’t like it.
Broken
The app is fun but it’s been broken since the last update. It won’t load the game. It’s just a tannish colored background.
The ads aren’t lying
I downloaded this game expecting it to be similar to the ‘brain puzzle: etc’ games where it’s not a continuous story. I was shocked when the story *was* continuing throughout the levels and the characters/plot was the same thing as it was advertised in the ads I saw(I don’t know if they’ve changed the ads or not, but the ads I saw were the exact same as the game play)
Not enough time
There is a couple of levels that aren’t possible to get 3 stars because of the dialogue with the characters. That makes no sense so dumb
Tricky story
I would like less ads in this game.
Fun but too many bugs
I played tricky story and tricky story 2, they’re both really fun and I don’t mind the ads because they’re usually short but when I got to level 45 on tricky story it said “level download failed”. Same thing when I got to level 41 in tricky story 2. There’s clearly more levels to go through as you can see them but can’t play them because you have to unlock them by playing and beating the other players.
Ads on ads with a side of ads
This game has great stories and plots, but when it comes to failing a level “relax time” which is an ad, and this happens so often that I feel like deleting the game right then and there, if you don’t like ads, don’t get the game
Best game ever
I play this every day and I cannot stop. You should totally get it has the best quality tech super funny figure out mysteries and more. I recommend you get this game right now.
Too much add.
The game would have been so great without the adds. And you guys trying to make people pay $3.99 for me not to get adds is insane. Please don't download, the adds will disappoint you. I'll put this everywhere. 👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽
A little bug
On the reunion level for Anna, I couldn’t drag the receipt when I needed to.
Too many ads!
Enjoyably tricky puzzles but very short time limits force one very early to either use hints, which mean ADVERTS, or redo the levels which is more ADVERTS. Rapidly very irritating and off putting
Fun but..... Kinda misleading
GREAT GAME couldn't put it down, but in the beginning, Anna was ill, and after the first level, it just disappeared. Like, I get she "traveled back in time," but she's still her, so the illness should've been more brought out. Also, I can't help but notice the substantial amount of ads in this game, and I get that the ads make it free to play or whatever, but you can do better.
Love it!
It's like the add
Too much adds
Adds
I like it just take the ads away
The game is fun, but when the ads come up, I can’t finish it and then when it gets too hard for me, I get out of the app and then when I come back to it later, it starts from the beginning and all the things I did it takes them away
Annoying ads
I never leave reviews but this is really bothering me. It was so fun at the start. I played the first chapter with no WiFi bc the ads were so constant it ruined the gameplay. But once you complete a few levels it forces you to connect to WiFi to play, just so they can shove a million ads you’re forced to watch. £4.99 to remove them…. Yeah you gotta make your money but having that many ads is awful and for people who don’t wanna waste money it’s completely unplayable. If I’m choosing to restart instead of watch an ad to continue WHY AM I BEING FORCED TO WATCH AN AD ANYWAYS??? You can’t play the game unless you have the patience of an angel. It’s a shame. Has potential but the continuous ads ruin it all. My patience is currently at 30%. So close to uninstalling. Please lessen the ads it’s not enjoyable or playable at all.
Children
Not too appropriate for children but very fun to play
Fun but...
This game is really fun except for the last level. And the fact that you can play all the levels here and one more in 𝚃𝚁𝙸𝙲𝙺𝚈 𝚂𝚃𝙾𝚁𝚈𝟸. So honestly if anyone even sees this comment, just get the second game.
Plot is from a webtoon/kdrama
Just started but this plot is obviously ripped off of Marry My Husband (go watch!! Bothe versions have their own charm) it’s close enough (at least so far maybe they branch off later) that there’s literally no possible excuse
Rly fun but lots of ads
I would really like for there to be less ads but the game is still awesome. I rector ages 13+
level not workint
good story too many adds and i am not able to pass level 38 one last task is left and im dragging the object to do it its not happening i even took the clue but the action is not happening
👎👎
love following along with the storyline although i wish there was an option to skip because the monologue takes up time. ads can be annoying but they're bearable. cant play offline which kind of ruins the gameplay ☹️
W tricky story
So
The worst
Bro I think it's kinda like evryotehre game your boyfriend cheated on you some how the girl friend he is dateing is evil which I find a kinda annoying
Why Level 13 is so hard 😭
When I got the app the levels 1-12 was easy but when I got to level 13 I literally found 4 and and I am trying for hours just to 6 other flags And for the record MAKE YOUR DAMN LEVEL EASIER
WAYYYY TOO MANY ADS!!!
I dont mind watching one ad but its like 1000, i had to delete due to the CONSTANT ads.
To many adds
It’s good but after every level, there’s an ad and that’s really annoying so yeah
It is really a one star game.
I only gave this this game five stars so there show it. It is one star horrible and bad delete it now.
ai & racist
I know the title is bold. But i seriously think this should be addressed. Not only does the art seem like it’s made from AI, but there is a puzzle where the main character has to hide from her husband, and she puts on blackface as a part of the puzzle to ensure that her husband doesn’t recognize her, and I found that very insensitive.
Bug
Level 9 won’t let me pick up the receipt so I can continue.
Too many Ads!
Happy to watch ads to play the game but the quantity is ridiculous! Found I was spending 3 or 4 times longer watching ads than playing the game. I don’t mind 30 second ads but these were over 2 minutes. Enjoyed the game itself but deleted as I can play other games with no or few ads
New levels ?
I love the stories but it hasn’t updated in months. What’s going on ?
AMAZING
So much fun and it’s the perfect difficulty for me!!! It has SO many levels I will never stop playing !!!!
Just awful
Aside from all the complaints of the “most critical” reviews and the blatant AI generated assets, all three of the ‘main’ stories are literally just plagiarized/stolen from real copyrighted works, such as True Heiress and Marry my Husband. They didn’t even try. It also seems like they got rid of their “villainess Isekai” story for some reason? Huh, I wonder why. Definitely probably has nothing to do with the reasons I suspect above…
Hfjdxdjej
I like it
This is super good but annoying
Theres loads of ads but it’s a great game not like them fake ones that show fake ads super great keep it up it is real and approved by me!
Same exact story of the kdrama Marry My Husband!!
Also too many adss… but for the puzzles being truly tricky and out of the box here’s 3 stars to the game
.
Love the game but can’t get pass the love letter part the letter that’s supposed to go in Karen’s locker won’t go
Racist
First it was black face then a black girl losing her hair. That’s stereotyping and just blatant racism….
Fun but one thing
This game is rlly fun I rlly like it but I cant open the bedroom door in the level where you have to help the detective find evidence and it's the last one I need could you fix the bug or is it just me? Overall rlly fun but I'm stuck 👍
Annoying
Too many ads
Review
When will the new update come out?
Just Because I Deleted it!
I love the game sooooooo much the only reason I deleted it was because I never play it and I played the same rounds toooooo much! And now all of the sudden on every single add it’s THIS GAME!!! So I’m adding it back!!!😊😊😊❤️❤️❤️
the ads just ruin it
^^
New levels
When will the new levels update??
Ads
Too many ads and if one has to purchase it’s very costly. Not worth time and money
Game
There are too many ads but I love this game it’s nice for time pass
