Secret City 3 - F2P for Negative User Reviews

University Bug Still Not FixedMy wife and I enjoyed this game right up until the point where we have to do the arrows puzzle in the dinosaur room in Oxford University then we came a cropper! Had we realised that this was still in the game we would never downloaded it, let alone started it. My wife fortunately hadn’t used her 1 skip crystal and was able to get past this obstacle and finish the game. Me, on the other hand had accidentally used it earlier so no longer had one available to use. Until then we were enjoying it. Maybe we’ll come back to it when the bug has been eradicated. UPDATE: The developer has responded to my review asking me to contact their support team, which in itself is what one would expect. However, the bug I highlighted was first reported 6 months ago by another user and many others and it still hasn’t been resolved, which to my mind indicates that they are more interested in cashing in on the in-app purchases than anything else. Had they fixed the issue, I’m sure many of us may have put our hands in our digital pockets and paid for something within the game, but not for a way through the obvious glitchy problem..Version: 1.0.3

Puzzle are impossible and have to paySo if it wasn’t for the puzzles which require you to purchase hearts to pass I’d give a higher rating. The mine field puzzle is pretty much impossible unless you’re familiar with this and have ESP. OVER 100 attempts and still here. So now I delete the game because I’m not paying to pass up something impossible. Stupid!!.Version: 1.0.2

Dinosaur door still not working after all this time !!!Have emailed developers regarding the new glitch , can’t go through door some of arrows correctly placed in puzzle don’t work ..Version: 1.0.3

Had to restartWas enjoying this game. Not too hard. Quite a fair way through the game and decided to buy coins and gems. Then the game got glitchy. Refreshing game on iPad worked once then was stuck. Had to restart. Hoping I can finish it this time..Version: 1.0.2

WARNING Cannot finish gameMoney grab. Arrow game is unsolvable and you must buy gems to solve. First reported months ago so I assume it will not be fixed. Despicable.Version: 1.0.3

Unsolvable puzzle bugI ran into this puzzle and tried everything until I finally came in here to see if anyone else had this issue. Sure enough there it is bunch of people running into this unsolvable puzzle because of a bug in the game. This has been ongoing for a while and has not been fixed. Unless you have gems which you have to purchase you will not be able to finish this game. Up until that point it was done really well and another excellent game by them but they need to fix this bug and if they do I will come back and edit my rating..Version: 1.0.3

Ok until brokenGot stuck once came out of secret tunnel to buck house. Something not working in lift mechanism, can’t pick up planks.Version: 1.0.2

Couldn’t get app to workI’ve played the first 2 and had fun but this one I’ve tried installing, reinstalling, and updating everything but when I start the app it fades to black and immediately crashes so I can’t play.Version: 1.0.6

FrustratingThe game keeps freezing in the same spot. I contacted the developers and it was fixed for 5 minutes and then froze again. I had to delete the game. Hope the 4th one doesn’t do the same thing..Version: 1.0.2

Somethings wrong…It won’t let me put the glasses on, which is at the very beginning of the game. You get out of the taxi, grab your stuff and put your glasses on. The puzzle is solved but is saying it isn’t so it’s stuck with me holding the glasses. I’ve also went to your support to open a support ticket and it requires you to open an account then go through your email etc, but I didn’t get an email to verify it so now I can’t even get ahold if you guys, I give up. Deleted.Version: 1.0.7

Secret city 3I enjoy these games a lot but also have experienced the same as what has been stated by other people, the game has crashed, I’m unable to pick up the boards or even return back to other locations. I hope you get this fixed soon.Version: 1.0.1

Great game, but a few miscuesWhen deciphering the notes on the piano, the first line of the clue is obscured by the timer and ruby. Had to guess and was able to get by. Now I’m at the door with the color block/arrow clues and two (when placed correctly in their spots) are not turning green to advise they are placed correctly, so I cannot move on and open the door. Any chance of getting that fixed?.Version: 1.0.3

CrashesCrashes upon opening..Version: 1.0.6

Really good until...Fantastic game until I got to Buckingham Palace where I cannot perform actions. All I get each time I come back to the area outside is the cut scene that started the level and when I open areas to perform actions they won’t let me pick things up or attach anything, such as the lever etc. So disappointed to get this far and not be able to continue :(.Version: 1.0.1

Secret city3T’es carré rouge dans le jeux ne son pas à la même place je ne peut pas faire l,image.Version: 1.0.3

Stuck in Dino roomWhen do you plan on fixing the issue with the arrows. From reading reviews it’s been an issue for months now. Would love to finish the game but can’t more on..Version: 1.0.3

Malfunction can’t play anymoreI have to say I love all the games they come out with, however I’m so bummed that I can’t play pass the dinosaur room due to a malfunction in either the coding of the game or some other error. In the mini game with the arrows at the back door, I know I’ve placed all the arrows correctly, however the top right and left arrows (purple and blue) for some reason are not registering that they are in the correct spot. I have even double check with others on how they pass this game and I wasn’t doing anything wrong it was the game. Super sad I can’t finish it. Hopefully the developer see this and fix the issue..Version: 1.0.3

Froze and took all diamondsGot about 3 quarters of the way through then it froze, I came off it and tried to open it again and it took me straight back to the start and my 8 diamonds had disappeared.Version: 1.1.2

Paid then crashedI’ve spent over £10 for this game, then it crashes and I can’t go no further, Very disappointed.Version: 1.0.0

Update worked then broke againUpdated the game and could now pick up the boards. I placed the boards and moved to the next screen. Got the lever but when I came back to the screen with the boards, the Mortymer cutscene happened again even though the boards were already placed on the ground. So now I can’t place the lever or do anything because the graphics aren’t working..Version: 1.0.2

Charging for hintsCmon. Plus it’s stuck on the lift..Version: 1.0.2

MehI was really disappointed by this game! All of your other ones are really high quality and fun. A lot of the puzzles don’t work or are too hard. It was really frustrating to play and I’m not going to finish it..Version: 1.0.1

Game was good untilGame was good until I got to the dumb arrow puzzle. I have all buttons placed at the right place, and the top left and top right which are purple and blue, they are not registering as correct even though they are! I’ve seen developer’s replies to others since may 4th saying they are working on fixing the issue, however, this issue has not been fixed! This game is ridiculous what kind of game forces players to stop playing because of a stupid bug?! The game was so good until this part ruined everything. Please fix this glitch or I’ll be forced to delete this app and give up on this game!!.Version: 1.0.3

Bug in puzzleI really enjoyed this game until I got to the arrow puzzle and the top left and the top right arrow won’t turn green. You can’t go past this. Will not recommend..Version: 1.0.3

Problems not addressedDespite reviews by others here the developer has not corrected any of the problems identified in chapter 3.Version: 1.0.2

Never received response from creator.I asked about a payment issue and never heard back. After spending like a hundred dollars on their games. And they keep deleting my reviews..Version: 1.0.1

Mostly great except for flawGreat games you create! But there is a flaw in the Secret City, The Human Threat game. On level 4, University, the lock button door game cannot be completed. The two top outside buttons never turn green no matter what I try. Otherwise, love your games that are free to play and complete..Version: 1.0.3

Broken puzzle can’t continueThe puzzle with the arrow buttons is glitched no matter what you do it will not turn the two top corner pieces green to open door.Version: 1.0.3

Unsolvable BugLike MANY others have mentioned, there's a bug about 3/4 of the way through so it's impossible to proceed. Developers haven't done anything about it in many months, so don't bother starting the game if you actually hope to finish. Really disappointing because I had invested a lot of time in the game so far and was really enjoying it 🤷‍♀️.Version: 1.0.3

Mostly goodI enjoy the Secret City games (did level 1; I level 2 didn’t come up in the App Store, so downloaded level 3) except for the fact that you get one gem and can only get more with the use of real money. Also, when I have looked through a walkthrough, it appears the person gets to choose between “easy” and “hard” for some of the puzzles. Wish I was able to do that. With the puzzle where you had to move circles to the correct position to finish a picture, it was so frustrating. I got to the point where all the circles were in the correct position, except for two that needed to be flipped somehow. I finally gave up and just deleted the game. I was sorry that I couldn’t finish the game..Version: 1.0.3

Still glitchingIt's has the same error, at Buckingham Palace scene. I have written off to the developers no reply..Version: 1.0.2

STILL glitchingCan’t move past the door puzzle in the dinosaur room. Keys are correct but it’s not opening the door. I’m not paying to skip again like I did on Secret City 1 at a similar problem..Version: 1.0.3

DisappointedI have played game twice. When I get to where he makes hole in ground it will not let me to go further. Hint just keeps charging anything I tap doesn’t move. I was enjoying game but not now. You have a problem at that point..Version: 1.0.1

GlitchWas enjoying this game until the glitch on the door . Very annoying.Version: 1.0.3

ButtonsButtons on different puzzles don’t work properly and it takes several attempts to select objects.Version: 1.1.1

Still a game breaking glitch in May 2021Loving the game until I got to the same game breaking glitch that others have reported. The room with the dinosaur has a puzzle on the door that, even though I match to the hint, wont open. All other switches show green and I even swapped the two remaining colours round just in case the hint colours were wrong but this didn’t solve it either. Will be uninstalling and moving to another game that works. Shame as the rest of the game was very good with puzzles that were different from many other games of this type..Version: 1.0.3

Can’t Get past arrow board gameI cannot get past the arrow board game. Everything is in the right position, but it still isn’t recognizing I completed it..Version: 1.0.3

Stuck with dinosStill unable to get past the Dino room..Version: 1.0.3

FrozeWe have been enjoying this game through lockdown. However, just got to chapter 3 trying to cross the chasm to reach Buckingham Palace, and the red boards just won’t pick up, so we can’t get any further with the game. So disappointing. Advice would be welcome....Version: 1.0.2

Still no fix to the arrow game bugI was enjoying this a lot but the arrow puzzle section is broken. Still waiting for a fix to be able to keep going in the game..Version: 1.0.3

CrashedI can’t even start this game on my iPad. It crashed in less than 3 seconds. That’s too bad. I enjoyed the first game and the first half of the second one before that one crashed too..Version: 1.0.6

Rubies!!I don’t end up completing a lot of this developers games as some of the puzzles are just tedious and you can only skip one with one Ruby. There’s no way I’m buying any! and other developers allow you to watch about 10 ads to skip a puzzle. I’m stuck here and having to quit.Version: 1.0.3

T-Rex room - puzzle bugSame problem as others have wrote about. The ‘arrows’ puzzle is not working. Deleting game....Version: 1.0.3

Great games but…These are some of the greatest games except that they make some of the puzzles non-intuitive and with this specifically there is a bug that won’t allow you to advance past the dinosaur room. It’s been over a month since last update and still nothing..Version: 1.0.3

StuckCan’t solve the puzzle with the UV light. It’s driving me crazy.Please help!!!!!! Update: Disregard the previous message. I fixed it. Please do more secret City installments..Version: 1.0.1

Not designed for phonesI love these game’s and have had such a hard time finding the F2P ones, and was happy to do many from this developer. However after downloading a few of the different games they offer, I’ve ended up deleting them with in the first 10 minutes. Not because I didn’t like them or anything like that. For me the words in the mini games are to hard to read, be it poor color choice or extremely small font. These games just aren’t designed for phones, and that’s the only way I am willing and able to play. The developers really should take cell phones into consideration when designing an app for phones..Version: 1.1.0

Mobile version has bugsNot the first time Domini games didn’t transfer well to mobile. There’s a puzzle that doesn’t work at all. Tried even with the walkthrough/solutions and still it won’t work. Only way to bypass it, is by skipping it, which cost $..Version: 1.0.3

Glitch...Same problem as other players regarding the boards at the beginning of chapter 3...can’t pick them up, scene is incomplete...can’t move forward in the game...love this developer & love the remasters, so this is disappointing.Version: 1.0.1

Bug preventing me from finishingThere’s a bug in one puzzle that is well known, yet still hasn’t been fixed. You cannot complete this game, so don’t waste your time starting it..Version: 1.0.3

Button puzzle bugDevelopers obviously have no interest in fixing the puzzle bug, so I deleted the game. Hey devs, stop telling people to contact support for a bug that’s been explained over and over. Just pull this game from the store..Version: 1.0.3

ProblemI was enjoying the game until I reached the book section where you have to create the pictures. Got everything in place but the game wouldn’t proceed. Frustrating..Version: 1.0.3

Not really free to playYou need gems in order to skip a mini games and no opportunity to earn them. Sooooo you gotta buy them. Game not free, but thanks for making us think it’s really free..Version: 1.0.3

Cannot finish due to bugSame as the others cannot finish the University arrow lock game bug, cannot progress past, skip this game until that is fixed. Note: I have not tried the red crystal skip, I already used the free one, and don’t intend to pay to buy more for developer bug bypass..Version: 1.0.3

Game reset itselfSo now i have to start over..Version: 1.0.4

Not worth the aggravation.This game periodically locks up. Very frustrating. Played a few games from this developer and this is the first real disappointment..Version: 1.0.1

GlitchI couldn’t pick up the boards. There’s no pic background but I only see boards and handles that’s all. March 14: I did reinstall this game last time and tried to play the game. It was still same problem about the boards and the matching. I tried click it and it won’t work. April 25th, I play this game and finally it work great. I play for a long time until the button of arrows on the door. I did all right except two arrows aren’t show green highlight. I did report twice today and haven’t hear any news from support. I am same problem as what Hieegee said..Version: 1.0.3

Bug in the MuseumReally enjoyed this until I got to the door puzzle in the Museum Dinosaur room, even following the hint sheet, the first and next to last arrows won’t lock in place (reading reviews this seems to be a bug that’s “being worked on and fixed” for a very long time).Version: 1.0.3

ErrorsThis game has an error in section 3, the T. Rex room, on the hard setting. The problem is with the 2 blue arrows on the top left and top right of the game at the top of the stairs. They do not turn green when activated so one cannot proceed further. I am not prepared to pay £1.99 for a skip again so someone needs to sort this out, not me, with the programmers..Version: 1.0.3

Dinosaur doorI have placed the tokens as the note suggests. The top right and top left will not turn green, so will not all solution. I have tried swapping with no luck. I am not able to proceed. 🥲.Version: 1.0.3

Glitch.....Maybe??I’m iOS device I get to the part where you have to move the jewels to fit in the picture and they always freezes I’m not sure if it’s just my device or if it’s a glitch in the game but I can’t go on until I do it and I’m not sure what to do.Anyone else having this issue?.Version: 1.0.1

Can’t finish piano puzzleThe keys are so sensitive that it’s nearly impossible to hit just one at a time, it’s incredibly confusing what you’re even supposed to do. That sheet music isn’t clear at all. The only way I know what keys to hit is using a cheat solution and even then it taps multiple keys at once and makes me have to rest. Infuriatingly frustrating..Version: 1.0.3

Secret city: RemasteredAs others have noted, a fun game that stops working when trying to pick up the boards in chapter 3. I know it’s free and thank you for that, but I would like to finish the game..Version: 1.0.1

Great gameIt’s been months since you guys kept saying you’re going to fix the issue but nothing has been done about it. When are you actually planning on actually fixing it?.Version: 1.0.3

Good except bug!I am having the same issue as other users with the “arrow board” mini game. All are in the correct position but top left and top right will not register as correct. Have completed everything else I have access to and therefore cannot play anymore until this is corrected. Saw the developer says they will work on this.... hope they fix it as I would love to finish the game. Hesitate to download another until this one is corrected. UPDATE: Its now June 18th. Well over 6 weeks since I had the problem that you responded you were working on. However, there is still no way for me to proceed in the game. Very upsetting. Should I just delete this app now? Since I cannot play it? Or is there really a fix coming?.Version: 1.0.3

FixI would normally give this game 4 stars but it seems to be broken. There is an area that you have to chip away at stone with a horse shoe and apparently a spike but the spike is no where to be found! I can’t go any farther in the game..Version: 1.0.3

Puzzle in office faultyPuzzle in office faulty as two are not on in the right section and cannot continue game please fix....Version: 1.0.3

Gem and coin bars are in the wayReally enjoying it so far but I can’t see the top line of the sheet music so cannot complete the piano puzzle.Version: 1.0.1

GlitchToo expensive! And glitch at Buckingham Palace. 😡.Version: 1.0.1

GrinchI loved playing this game I’m stuck in the room with the big dinosaur trying to get through the door at the top of the stairs with the arrows I have been trying for two day and i Carnot get through fed up with it now.Version: 1.0.3

Secret city 3Great game up till chapter 3. Can’t click on the boards background is see-through all I can see are the levers :(.Version: 1.0.1

Bugs!Great game until the monks city. Bad relief part would not “work” and arrow would not pry open ruby. Very disappointed in the time wasted on this game..Version: 1.0.7

Unplayable due to puzzle bugPeople have been posting about the bug in the arrows puzzle on the door in the T-Rex room in the museum at the University of Oxford now for 6 months and it’s still not fixed! I wish I’d read the other reviews before I downloaded this because up until that point I was really enjoying this game. If you’ve already used your free skip gem then it’s impossible to complete the game as this particular puzzle can’t be solved. Please sort this out so I can return and give this game the rating it would deserve if it could actually be finished..Version: 1.0.3

Love it, but there’s problemsI really enjoy these games. The way the gems and hints are located in the right area where I accidentally hint he button. Also, When I am working on a puzzle, it goes out of the puzzle. Then I have to start over..Version: 1.1.2

Ok I’m come to a fatal flawAt the beginning of chapter 3, when you try to grab the boards nothing happens and it looks the picture is incomplete. Can’t move forward. Frustrating.Version: 1.0.0

Unplayable due to glitch near the end 😖I have the same glitch reported by several previous reviewers. Still unfixed despite replies from six months + ago promising to “look into it”. Given that you literally can’t progress because of it… we’ll it’s not good enough, is it? If it’s that tricky to fix then give all your players a few gem so they can skip it. If I can’t finish I can’t pay for the bonus chapter, can I? In short - I recommend skipping this game and save yourself the frustration of an unfinished story!.Version: 1.0.3
