As already noted this game is not short. But it is clever. I did look at a walkthrough several times, but usually ended up scolding myself for not seeing the answer. Lots of puzzles, some of them hard, but all of them fair. And the solutions are there to be found. Nice story and great graphics. Played flawlessly on my Samsung tablet.

Fantastic game with one glaring issue. It isn't configured properly to hide the navigation bar. Had the ingame back button square over the "home" button. Had to be super careful where I clicked. Had to reopen the game many times.

I'd give this game 5 stars but I cannot get the yellow puzzle piece out of the air vent before the spiders web. The back button is directly over the piece so it will bring me back and if I try a little higher it brings me forward. Very frustrating, I've tried using a stylus but no luck there either.

Really disappointed in this one after burning through many Glitch Games. It felt unfinished in a way that made the game exceedingly difficult. Lack of any feedback when trying to interact with objects instills the idea that those objects cannot be interacted with. Not being able to proceed using common sense with a puzzle until reading how to do it is also incredibly annoying. What's worse is that these mechanics are not how other Glitch Games work - we have already agreed on an established mechanic from this publisher and when they change them (through apparent laziness) it makes the game artificially difficult. Because of this, this game took me longer than the entire Forever Lost series combined.

This game is fun but the graphics are frustrating. You have a back arrow in the middle of the screen and I'll never finish this game because of it. I have a screen shot if you want it.
