The Secret of Crimson Manor for Negative User Reviews

Appalling EnglishI have just started playing this game. While the graphics like ok great, the same attention to detail has not been paid to the text. The grammar is seriously bad. It needs to be proof read urgently!.Version: 1.6

OkAs many others have mentioned, the translation is absolutely atrocious. I found it very distracting and unclear so I think I may have missed some of the storyline. On the plus side, I liked that it was a relatively straightforward point-n-click adventure since those are my very favorite but the puzzles are all really random with no real integration. Also, whatever system they used to create the game was really clunky and old-fashioned. Really not intuitive at all. I kept ending up in the menu. But it diverted my attention for a total of 40 mins, so I guess that's some. Btw does anyone know how you get the answers for the keypads? I ended up looking at the walkthrough...Version: 1.1

Confusing, But FunI had fun in the first chapter, but now I'm stuck in a section of the second which even the hints can't help with. Is there a way to fix this? I would love to finish the game, I'm enjoying it so far!.Version: 1.4

OkInteresting, but buggy and without proper hint system..Version: 1.1

If only...I could have met Mr. Strange, sat him down and explained the value of correct spelling and grammar..Version: 1.1

DissappointedNot a good game at all! I've played better ones, would't recommend it..Version: 1.0

Bugged game prevents item from being collectedDon't waste your money. The game has bugs in it and the translation (from Spanish) is awful..Version: 1.0

Student workThe puzzles are basically Ok, but this game suffers from amateur execution. A hodge-podge of poorly composited photos, and appalling use of English throughout. Clearly created by an individual, not a company. Don't expect professionalism or polish..Version: 1.1

DissapointingI gave it two stars based solely on the fact that the graphics are nice. I don't normally review things but this time I felt I had to. I was immediately put off by the bad English on the notes (makes me wonder if English isn't the creators first language) and the rigid sort of game play. Compared to others in the market, there isn't much in the way of actual puzzles. Your just following a path that's been set out. You can only click on certain things, no magnification, little variety in the actual format of puzzles. Remember a sequence, turn things a certain way, find objects to make others work. Yawn. Perhaps I've been spoiled by Big Fish's games but I was sad at how quick this ended and how easy it was. Also there was no record of things you had discovered during your exploration which meant if you dis get stuck or you had to stop playing for any length of time, you have no idea what you'd done when you came back. Or have any hints to help. Overall at 69p I'm not going to complain too much but I would suggest the creators spend some time extending the game time, the variety and complexity of the puzzles and check your grammar! Until then I won't be buying anymore of your games..Version: 1.1

Pas évidentIl n'y a aucun indice de disponible et les énigme sont pas évidente. Ce qui pour résulta de bloquer et de ne plus être capable d'avancer. Ca fais ch...r d'avoir pailler et de ne pas pouvoir en profiter..Version: 1.1

Not bad at allI enjoyed this point and click puzzler. The story starts off a bit cliched, but the ending is neat. The game took me around 2 hours to complete, and none of the puzzles stumped me to the point that i got mad or needed a guide. The games atmosphere was ok, but the music is great - reminicsent of the great music from the great 7th Guest game (probably one of the greatest point and click puzzlers ever). The controls worked fine, but often in game text would pop up, telling me something, and there was no way to remove it - just had to wait til it cleared or move to another screen. A longer game would have earned a better score. Also, achievements would be a huge plus. Nonetheless, it's a great game for a lazy afternoon..Version: 1.4

Good, but the weakest of the three MediaCity games.I recommend that you play one of the other two MediaCity games before this one. It's ok. A bit on the short side, but no where near as good as the other two..Version: 1.6

Not so goodI play a lot of these games and this is NOT a good one. It may work better on an Ipad, but on an IPhone it doesn't seem to work properly. I have a feeling that the back arrow is covering something important because I have become stuck right at the beginning of the game. There is no hint box, and the screen won't pinch and zoom so you cannot get close up to things. There is much better out there. Don't waste your money..Version: 1.0

HmmGreat graphics but absolutely awful grammar for clues etc. Needs work!.Version: 1.0

Pop up box is horrible..This game use to be enjoyable until they changed something. Now every time you touch anything a huge dialogue box pops up that covers a full third to half the game with useless tips. Such as: “you picked up the key” or “you picked up a Larger key”. Way too annoying for me to complete the game. Wish there was a way to opt out of the pop ups..Version: 1.7

Beyond EasyThis was the easiest escape game I’ve ever played. I’m honestly a little upset I spent the money. Might be ok for young kids, but not for adults..Version: 1.6

OkayPoor English used throughout game. Short and not logical to work out a couple of clues. Disappointed with ending however concept was good.Version: 1.5

Ok gameThis game is okay but there are better games out there that do not cost money..Version: 1.6

Sub titles are annoyingI didn't get far in this game because I found that whenever you clicked on an object an explanation of that object or place would pop up in large letters across a good portion of the top of the screen; it was irritating. When I clicked on the oven I was told that there was nothing above it. With these games I prefer to figure things out myself. The graphics are superb and I am sorry that I am not going to be able to finish it..Version: 1.6

Secret Charges!Paid $3.99 and just found out that they charged me .99 cents for no reason! I don’t care what the amount is, no unknown charges tolerated!.Version: 1.6

BoringPuzzles were way too simple, objects too easy to find, and every time you needed to use a key to unlock something all you got was another key. Not much thought went into creating the puzzlea for this game, and the english was awwwfuuullll. This game is a waste of money. Skip it and download Lost City instead.Version: 1.0

ManorVery boring. Too predictable. Not enough choices given to player. Disappointing.Version: 1.0

It’s okDefinitely not the funnest escape game I’ve played that’s for sure. It was too easy in my opinion. The graphics were cool, except you could tell where an object was added into the pic/room that had to be clicked on or picked up. I literally completed the game in half an hour, running through the rooms and figuring it out quick. It wasn’t really challenging. I wish I hadn’t spent my money on this game but oh well. I still give it 3 stars..Version: 1.7

BoringNot worth the money. Didn't take long to figure out cause there were only a few items and only a few rooms.... There is much better games out there.Version: 1.0

Simplistic and linearThis game has absolutely no thought put into it. It is also super obvious and extremely linear. You find a key - guess what, it opens the very next door. You find another item and it is extremely obvious where to use it. There is no challenge and no puzzles either. Put random object into appropriate place and you are then given a new random object or something opens up. I have played many games like this and this has to be perhaps the most basic and boring one I have come across. Originality is completely lacking as well. This game has cliches such as the clock that needs the hands replaced on it or a bookshelf with the book missing or some figurines where one is missing. All you do is replace the relevant item and that's it. If you are looking for a real puzzle adventure game, go with the Forever Lost series or the fantastic Facility 47. Sadly, this game would only really suit someone with the mental age of a five-year-old..Version: 1.6

OkNot a bad game. Short, finished in one night. Would like to see more games like this..Version: 1.0

Doesn't workWas good until about quarter of the way through, when I tried to press the coordinates on the map they flashed off as through they were wrong, I checked a walkthrough, so I know I have them right, but nothing is happening, I also tried reinstalling the app and restarting the game but still had the same problem. Don't know if anyone else has this. Up until then it was good and intriguing..Version: 1.1

RubbishPoor, no real effort put in to developing this game..Version: 1.2

Okay gameHowever they could have looked at some of the content. Quite a few grammar mistakes in the writing of letters journals etc For example in the guard room the person talks about his nephew and then says she and little girl... Odd..Version: 1.0

I wanted to like this game.This game was sort of so so... it was good I don't regret playing it but the other two games by this developer were excellent, the Lost Fountain and Alice trapped in Wonderland and both I thought were superior to this game.Version: 1.6

I Feel Ripped OffI bought this game and it was good for a couple minutes but there were onlyba few clues and all it leaves me with is a magnifying glass, I want my money back please.Version: 1.0

Fun but not long enoughFun but very straightforward. All done in less than 2 hours.Version: 1.0

Ok gameMuch the same as Grizly Manor. Enjoyable but easier than average. One thing I'm not sure of - there appears to be what looks like a screwdriver in the bathroom sink but I can't pick it up. Is this a glitch or am I just not suppose to be able to pick it up? The English translation is hilarious. If they can't be bothered doing that properly makes you wonder what else they skimped on. Clue for barrels - look for symbols that are identical to symbols on adjacent barrels.Version: 1.0

Proofread your game!The game was fun and the puzzles challenging, but the developer needed to have an educated, native English speaker to proofread all of the dialogue before publishing. Many of the sentences that pop up during gameplay didn't make sense, which was distracting and took away from what is otherwise a well-done game..Version: 1.6

Waste of timeLousy graphics, inconsistent plot, functionally illiterate script writing, "random" item placement, unsatisfying conclusion. Don't bother with this one..Version: 1.5

Boring storyAnd too easy to finish - puzzles were simple and obvious..Version: 1.2

So easyEven my little sistre can resolve those puzzles.Version: 1.0

MacaRubbish! I have come to a dead end, nothing else to collect. Where is the key for the door in the kitchen which I assume leads to wine cellar? Cork screw for wine bottle or something to smash it? None of the cupboards or drawers open in kitchen. Found one used bulb for protector in the attic no sign of the film. I assume won't work any way as used bulb! In other rooms nothing obvious to collect and doesn't allow you to pick up other items! I have the magnifying glass but can't use it to find clues. I think this game is a waste if money. The odd clue might help but I've completely come to a stand still tried tapping everything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.Version: 1.0

Enjoyable, just needs beginners rank.It is a good game for beginners of this type of gameplay. For anyone with even a little experience you would be lucky to get an hour before game end. Enjoyable, just needs a beginners rank :).Version: 1.6

AveragePretty simple version of these types of games. Everything is so basic and you are restricted to just following a set path throughout the game. Not worth the $1.99.Version: 1.0

Not as good as Lost FountainOnly worth $.99...recommend Lost Fountain and skip this one..Version: 1.6

Weak endingThe beginning of the game was good, but towards the end it was a huge anti-climax. Storyline was weak and the ending very disappointing. Don't waste your time on it..Version: 1.2

Mystery of the crimson manorIt's the worst game I've ever played.Version: 1.0

.Not too challenging, but not too easy. A little Overpriced, but overall a solid game. Text needs to be reviewed, very poor grammar..Version: 1.0

Glitch at barrels!Everything was going fine until the barrels, after a few attempts and shutting down for a day the barrels will no longer turn.... Is it a glitch or have I used up my attempts ???.Version: 1.0

Very briefToo short for the money..Version: 1.6

AverageNice pictures but no challenge. A disappointing end. English is very poor!.Version: 1.1

Crimson manorThe telephone clue would not work. I will try reinstalling, as unable to proceed with game..Version: 1.7

"Longuest" for "longest" should've been my clueNice looking, puzzles very easy (I thought they were too easy, but I play a lot of these). The text, though, was hard to read (fixed-width font) and to understand... if doing a game in English, it helps to get someone to proofread it..Version: 1.6

Well I'm stuckI must be old and stupid I have been stuck in the same spot for 2 days ! Would really like to know if there is a forum for help ???.Version: 1.0

OkIt's a nice game, but it's short and not worth .99 cents in my opinion. Alice is better..Version: 1.6

Great!Great game with beautiful scenes, simple but all in all fun!.Version: 1.1

Oh wellPretty but too simple, no exploration, no challenge. It was more like playing follow the leader than solving puzzles..Version: 1.1

ManorI did not like the game very much. The words always covered half my screen and there were many misspelled words. Some of the actions required did not lead me to logical conclusions for looking for clues. I do not think I will follow up with any more games from your maker..Version: 1.6

Too simple.Way too easy..Version: 1.0

Far too easyNice looking game, but way too easy. I like the MediaCity adventures, but this one requires little skill to solve and is ultimately unrewarding. Probably one of their early games. The clues are very simple and obvious. A beginners game..Version: 1.7

AmusingGood amusement for sufficient time for the price. These games are hard to find and I was pleased to find this one. The puzzles were a little simple but that's better than having no idea what to do! Thanks guys.Version: 1.5

Poor qualityTry other games.Version: 1.1

NanaWould give this game five stars but the telephone in the living room does not work and I am unable to get the computer chip for the computer, so I’m unable to go forward in the game. Has anyone else had this problem? How can it be solved?.Version: 1.6

AwfulThis game is just terrible..Version: 1.8

OkNot as good or as complicated as the other two Mediacity games, but enjoyable nonetheless..Version: 1.6

Did i really buy this!?I can only imagine that the reviews raving about this app are the developers themselves, along with their friends and family! I have played all of the adventure apps that many know and this one is at the bottom of the pile. It is ridiculously simple and very linear. Selecting items from the inventory is clunky. There is an annoying banner that takes-up half of the screen every time you click on something. The ‘wonderful graphics’ that get mentioned are just basic stills with a selectable object slapped in the middle. If you have a brain, then you will realise that you have to click on it to progress to the next blindingly-obvious clue. Yes there are spelling mistakes, but these are the least of the problems. Even if this game was free, i would hate that i had wasted any time on it. Seriously, do yourselves a favour and skip it....even if it on offer as a freebie! You have been warned..Version: 1.6

PoorCould not use the telephone.....gave up..Version: 1.7

Not badSome of the clues were a little too far fetched but an ok game..Version: 1.2

Intriguing gameNot as good as Alice Trapped and the Fire Maple Games but reasonably enjoyable.Didn't care much for the ending!.Version: 1.5

DécuQuand on est bloqué il n'y a pas d'aide c plate de tourner en rond.Version: 1.1

It was only okayIt was a good game. There wasn't any glitches but I found it hard to understand. The journals didn't make sense or help out so I had to continue to refer the walk through. I actually found it quite hard. I love these games though. Well done.Version: 1.0

Worst Game EverDon't waste your time or money. This was such a DULL game I kept playing thinking it had to get better. Never did. Not even a normal hidden objects mystery game. AWFUL, AWFUL, AWFUL!!!!!!!!.Version: 1.6

TerribleSave your money. The game took me a couple of hours to complete and less than ten minutes to do a second time (which I only bothered doing to see what happens if you make the other choice at the end). Compared to other similar games (such as the Moonfell series from Big Fish Games) this one sucked. Poor graphics, no indication of how puzzles should be completed, not enough puzzles, and the game's over before you know it. I'd ask for a refund but suspect it would take longer to get than playing the game did!!.Version: 1.2

I thought it was going to be good based off the best game in so many countriesI wish I would have chosen a better game for my dollar this wasn’t worth purchasing there are free games better than this. I’m sorry but I was bored and depressed that I picked the wrong one. The pictures aren’t awful but it’s definitely not worth paying for..Version: 1.6

Blank screenUsed to work, now when I open the app I get the music playing but a blank screen. Please fix..Version: 1.5

HelpI must be stupid. I am stuck with the computer and metal door!.Version: 1.0

Had funEnjoyed playing this one! Some puzzles were easy & others will make you think. I would have liked it more if I could 'collect' or 'write down' the clues within the game, cause having to remember a clue or go back to look at it again was annoying. I also found that most of the diary notes where a waste of time, most didn't really help with the clues in the game. Overall I had fun playing it and would recommend it to anyone who likes these sort of games..Version: 1.0

StuckFor comp... Insert chip, tap on screen. Stuck on barrels... :/ almost ready to give up. Help.Version: 1.0

Not too badI did enjoy the game. I didnt think the story line was that interesting..Version: 1.6

Very poor languageThe text in this game is unreadable. Not for grammarphiles..Version: 1.6

A good hour, but not worth the money!A good hour of my evening passed playing this game, but now what? I've finished it and got nothing more for my money. The level of English language is appalling, I understand it has not been written by English speakers (or at least I assume that is the case) but a simple spelling and grammar checker would have prevented some very simple mistakes. Not worth paying for, if it were free it would get a higher rating!.Version: 1.2

Not badFirst, this was a charming game with an intriguing plot. The atmosphere and music wad white mysterious--which I really enjoyed. However, the puzzles were short and relatively easy. On a puzzle game I should be stumped for longer than I was in this game. Also, the game is rather short, and this does make the replay value extremely low. One final thing, it's a port from a Spanish producer, and as such, there is a lot of bad grammar and missing words. Do not buy this game. If you do decide to get this, wait until it is on sale. If you're fast (or playing it a second time), it will take you less than ten minutes..Version: 1.5

MissI carn’t seem to get past the map to get the leaver to appear I need sone help please could your team help me in any way.Version: 1.8

Don't bother.This game is dreadful. The English and Spanish are both badly crafted. The scenes all feature terrible photoshop work. The puzzles are too obvious and the clues are predictable. Two keys as the first two items in the game? Come on! What a waste of money..Version: 1.0

Disappointed with gameI was extremely disappointed with the game. Money was so wasted. Ended up with the magnifying glass with no where to use it. Game should have a hint box. The company who designed this should study Big Fish games, to see how a game should run..Version: 1.2
