A little disappointing. I thought the story might be longer, but overall it is a creative and unique game! I love the jazz/noir soundtrack in the backround, and the way everything falls together. Good work Noodlecake, but next time, try to make it longer, so people who finish in two days still have something to do.

Seriously, this game is fantastic. The game mechanic isn't necessarily inventive, but very well executed. The game unfolds without any true prompting - it just makes sense. As you progress certain features begin to complicate gameplay. This change keeps the game feeling fresh and challenging, which adds to the whole package being a really pleasant experience. The audio isn't annoying when you find yourself stuck on a puzzle and is implemented really well as the story unfolds. Stop reading & download!

Crashes on S7 Edge right as the first few FRAMES of the intro plays. Can do nothing else with the game. Have tried reinstalling. Such a shame since I've had this on my wishlist for so long. Wish I'd read the more recent reviews before purchasing.

by D####:

Simple, stylish graphics. Great soundtrack, don't understand why others want to turn it off! Smooth response overall. But what puts it over the top is the genius concept, like nothing else out there. Length leaves you hoping for sequels.

D70%
by D####:

The art style was good and it a game that let you pick what happens but there isn't very much of anything. I just don't even thing that if it were on said I would buy it. When you beat the game you do the same thing again and again. Save your money, its not worth it.

T70%
by T####:

Simple concept done well. I didn't quite follow the story, but everything was stylish and I really enjoyed a music. The game could have been a bit longer, but I'm also glad it didnt outstay it's welcome. It's a novel game experience and definitely worth a play.

D70%
by D####:

Simple, yet challenging this game is a steal at $3. The music, art style and gameplay are terrific. It's very intuitive- no tutorial and it doesn't need one. Now one of my favorite Android games!

K70%
by K####:

Had no issues in the game. The game itself is amazing and I really enjoyed it. I guess I would rate as the best game I played. My only issue is that it's way too short. I finished it in less than 3 hrs please make a sequel.

D70%
by D####:

I've never seen anything like it and i would love to see more quality games made in an untested style, fantastic and we'll worth less than 5 bucks, i genuinely hope to see more

W70%
by W####:

Really really great game and concept. Feels like your the director of a classic noir movie but way too short. I was surprised and sad when the game started from the beginning again.

V70%
by V####:

Splendid game. This puzzle game is absolutely refreshing and unique than the others I've played. I love the jazz playing in the background. You did an amazing job on the artstyle and controls. However I've finished the game for an hour and I felt it was too short. Overall I do enjoy how challenging the game is, but I do hope you'll make a sequel so people would still enjoy.

D70%
by D####:

A brilliantly executed fresh take on the puzzle genre. I find myself not wanting to finish the game so that I can still look forward to playing it.

D70%
by D####:

This is a new game concept i have never played before. Nice graphics. I have no issues with it but this u just have to say that i Didn't expect it to start all over again after completed it. It need more adventure. It way too short. It easy after just one day of playing. Damm! I just can't get more of it, more of it plz?

M70%
by M####:

I'm not one to lavish praise on just any app, especially games. However THIS is genuinely a challenging game with a most unique UI! If you like comic books, mysteries, puzzles, &/or thrillers, you will probably fall in love with this movie! The ONLY downside is that there isn't another game like it (at least none that I've found). Without reservations, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this game for all! To the developers, Noodlecake Studios: I applaud your ingenuity & hope you create more games like this in the future!

M70%

Latest update has stopped crashes on Galaxy edge, however, you'll have to clear memory and cache of the game before starting if you've had any previous versions. Game is interesting and definitely original, but far too short and some sequences are far too predictable to solve. Would imagine this would work best on a tablet format with much more complexity behind each scene and puzzle.

X70%
by X####:

Decent game. The idea is fresh. I'm here not to complain about the gameplay, but your latest update is always fail to install. I have try clear cache, clear data.. Doesn't work. I have to uninstall and install again just to update. And I have to start the game at the very beginning again. Fix your update and make auto cloud save or something like that to avoid this happening again.

J70%
by J####:

My two issues are the inability to mute the sound and the overreaching access required if you sign into your Google account. No you can't have access to my contacts and no you can't display my game progress to the world. Why would you ask that?

M70%
by M####:

Was nice to play a game so different to mainstream churn. The game teaches you simply and effectively what you are required to do, mixing it up a couple if times - but I must say the interest had worn off by the end as it was all a bit 'samey' (despite being a relatively short game). Still worth it to just have a game so different and well made for a change.

M70%
by M####:

Finally, something different! My only cons are, no way to turn off the music and no hints. Otherwise, a refreshing change to the usual same ole boring mobile games. Kudos to the developers and I hope there will be a second one. Love the gameplay, strategic thinking, and graphics. Well worth the money!

M70%
by M####:

You can't turn off the terrible soundtrack that loops every 30 seconds. The solutions require you watch it fail then keep failing because you have no idea how the character will move in a panel. Demands access to things it doesn't need.

K70%
by K####:

Game was updated and now runs even worse! On my tablet, panels will flicker or won' t finish playing their animations all the way through. Worst of all, now on the SECOND screen, two panels don't appear at all, rendering the game unbeatable seconds into the game. Before the update, this happened on the third screen so it was kind of better before, lol. I appreciate the attempts to fix the game but its not working for me. PLEASE give me a refund, I've gone as far as I want to go with this. ^^;

M70%
by M####:

I love this app but got stuck on one the stories! There are only two panels and it does not mater what order they are in, the woman gets caught. So I will have to uninstall unless someone has a better idea!

M70%
by M####:

The game is likely good, but does not work for me. On clicking the play button the frames start playing but disappear after a second or two leaving you guessing what is actually going on.

M70%
by M####:

Interesting Concept, fun game. It's like choose your own adventure but without choosing your own. I guess the best way to describe it is... it's like telling a story after a night of drinking. You know how certain parts end but you have to piece the clues together before you get there. Analogies are like puppies.

A70%
by A####:

The challenge goes up and down but it remains fun and interesting. The concept is absolutely amazing. The art is simple but the the animations look they were recorded by live people. Overall just great stuff and not one to easily put down for long.

I70%
by I####:

Was disappointed at first when it started crashing frequently, but the folks at Noodlecake were responsive and fixed the error, turning this from a frustrating experience to one where I'm quite enjoying the game. Mechanics start simple, but start getting added to the more you play, and it's got a hefty dose of noire charm that I quite like. A worthwhile purchase from some good devs.

W70%
by W####:

Every time I try to open the app, it freezes and doesn't even get to the main screen. I wish it would work because it seems like a really fun game.

M70%
by M####:

Thanks very much for repairing the problem but when i went back on it this week it was laggy as well as some boxes didnt want to swap.

M70%
by M####:

Started playing this game a few days ago. All went well until the latest Android update then the game would not load. Re-booted and still no Joy. Saw that there was an update and tried to load it but the update crashed. UPDATE: Have uninstalled then reinstalled but game has gone back to the beginning - it's very frustrating!

J70%
by J####:

This a very unique game and I throughly enjoyed, however there needs to be more levels or at least another story because once you've completed it it just goes back to the beginning. Apart from this one of the cleverest games I've played for awhile.

M70%
by M####:

The below problem was fixed :) thank you. Lot of hanging and freezing!! I couldn't even play a single secne without a freeze!!? You need to close & reopen many times to complete a single secne!! I have Samsung S6 edge phone!! Please fix this ASAP.. cause it became unplayable! Lot of people reporting the same issue with the same kind of phone!

T70%
by T####:

Gets a little repetitive after some time. No reason for any of the pages to be just 2 frames. The only choice is obviously to switch them so it feels like a filler page.

M70%
by M####:

Since there's no demo, I really didn't understand the concept of the game. Basically you switch frames in order to make the story play out. More times than not I found myself just switching them about randomly until I found the right combo.

G70%
by G####:

Unique, very creative and surprisingly fun, which is saying something as I'm not easy to please! Probably my 3rd favourite mobile game

Looking for resources to download. Please fix this asap or provide a work around.

M70%
by M####:

Had no issues in the game. The game itself is amazing and I really enjoyed it. I guess I would rate it as top 5 I played. My only issue is that it's way to short. I finished it in less than 2 hrs

Z70%
by Z####:

A very cool game!

W70%
by W####:

Only run run run, I thought with that many rewards it would have a amazing, touching script, no script. Boring.

V70%
by V####:

The way this game embraces the touch screen to enrich the experience is an uncommon feat. Lovely visuals, cool soundtrack and interesting story all fit together to make an unforgettable experience.

W70%
by W####:

It is was WAY TOO SHORT! not worth the money because it was like a one time game. Fun but short.
