Game was amazing up until the last puzzle. Great story and most of the puzzles had a logical sense which is fantastic; where if you get stuck on one and come back to it later, you'll usually will be able to solve it. The final puzzle was just something I spent multiple times on and could not solve that all. The bonus coin puzzle was amazing and allowed me to enjoy the game a little longer. Thank you for making such amazing games! Keep up the good work!!!

Played all the free versions of Rusty Lake games. Even bought the paid version of ROOTS. I was blown away by the excellence of the games. I really appreciate the efforts put in to create such magic. These are by far the best games I have ever played. Currently, I can't afford to buy more Rusty Lake paid versions (I wish I could). Every now and then I just install free versions and play them again and again (because they feel new every time and I never get bored).

Worst game, and the game is stuck at "The Brood" level. I emailed about the concern, but there is no response. Do not waste money on this game.

Deleted my data!! Super bummed to give my favorite series one star but I got really far in this wonderful game when the next time I logged in I had to start all over again!!! I tried reinstalling it and it did nothing. :(I still want to finish it but I think I'm going to wait a while before I go back to it, I'm pretty frustrated. :(

I can't get past Child's Play on my S25 Android. I watched the walk-through, but I can never get the kid to hit the beehive.

Just a bunch of devil worship puzzles. Not how it was marketed to me.
