Lumino City for Negative User Reviews

Was great until snag by photographerGave it four stars at first. Was having Good time with game until photographer. I hit the button on the left and then bubble said “ it doesn’t recognize me perhaps it I’ll recognize someone else.” It did this repeatedly. I went to the-walkthrough, and everything I had done was the same. I then looked at the wt video, a face popped up on the side. Was this the other person? I started from beginning in case I missed something, again, no face popped up and again it would no recognize me and let me in. I downgraded it to two star. Can you assist me someone? I would like to continue.Version: 2.5.2

Bugs spoil otherwise good gameCute graphics and interesting puzzles are used in an "explore the world and work it out yourself" style of game. However, I have found a few problems with it on my iPad. Some of the graphics seem to be out of alignment (the character is standing in mid air, or you actually have to click on a wall around the corner to get a door open. Unfortunately I seem to be unable to progress further in the game than "The Park", as the character standing in mid air seems unable to correctly interact with the ropes and wheel, no matter what I do. If the bugs were fixed, it would be a good game..Version: 1.7

Too much book workI like games like The Room, The Broken Age and Thimbleweed Park. This game seemed to fall into this category. I don’t like the book flipping for clues and there are some objects that are really hard to find that can hold up an entire level. For me, this game doesn’t have the same feel, as the above listed games..Version: 2.5.2

Poor implementation on AppleTV ruin an otherwise beautiful gameFinding this game VERY frustrating to play on AppleTV due to the poor (lazy?) implementation of controls. The interaction model that works well on a touch screen does not work on AppleTV. Having to control a mouse pointer to find and interact with hotspots instead of simply swiping the touchpad to cycle through the hotspots onscreen gets old very quickly. These unnecessary and demanding interactions include forcing users to move the mouse pointer to a “next” button instead of accepting a simple tap to continue is just one example of the work to convert the touch screen interaction model to AppleTV has not been done, instead pushing this effort onto the users. Hopefully this is improved with a future update..Version: 2.5.1

A beautiful game horribly executed.It’s a gorgeous game with a interesting story and that’s where the draw ends. Cons: puzzles that without grandpas diary would be completely unsolvable because there’s no logical way to deconstruct them. If you’re not playing on a 55” flat screen you’ll be pixel hunting for places to move and items to pick up. And when playing on Apple TV the remote is terrible for any puzzles that require timed movement to complete puzzles..Version: 2.5.2

Tedious Problem SolvingI got as far as trying to repeat the tune on the guitar, which basically involves writing down a sequence of 34 different notes and trying to repeat them in the correct order. I got bored and gave up..Version: 2.5.1

Just dont work !Doesnt work on ipad mini, doesnt work on iphone se. It supposly need ram and free space, well a complicated recipee to play a game that never happen with other game. A big fail. Maybe a scam cause if you able to buy a game from a device it should work on that device!.Version: 2.5.1

Don’t believe the hypeFirst off, I NEVER write app reviews. But since the App Store so heavily hyped this $5 app I feel people should know that it is not even worth a dollar. She walks slow, climbs slow, talks slow. The conversations are mostly pointless and waste time/fun. The music isn’t even good. The visuals are kinda cute but that’s really all this game has going for it. Puzzles aren’t very fun. Having to flip through the stupid book all the time is annoying too. But the WORST part is now I’m stuck and can’t even finish the game because of some glitch it will not let me pick up the coat hanger. So total waste of time and $5. Not worth it at all..Version: 2.5.2

Please make it available for iPhone X’s maxIt is just sad to know that it is not compatible with max.Version: 2.5.2

Easy puzzlesI like the environment it’s really beautifully designed. I didn’t like that most of the conversations were pointless or went on for too long. There’s a lot of tapping just to move forward from a conversation. The puzzles are really difficult to try and figure out on your own, really no rhyme or reason to them. The only way you can beat a puzzle is to use the book which just gives you the answers. Then all I’m doing is just flipping back and forth from the book and the puzzle to complete it..Version: 2.5.1

Could be better…My only problem is the fact that I sometimes don’t know what I can and cannot interact with! I know it may not seem like that big of a deal, but it heavily effects the quality of life: I was stuck in a puzzle for months because of this… I had to look up a tutorial. I ended up deleting it because I couldn’t be bothered to keep playing..Version: 2.5.2

Astounding in visuals, lacking in gameplay.The first thing I said when I opened this game was “Wow.” I couldn’t believe that this game’s visuals were made purely through real life modeling. After all, I got this game because I knew this, and I wanted to get the whole effect of actually playing it; because good visuals or no good visuals, no game is a great one without entertaining gameplay. Then I actually started playing. After playing for a few hours, I was underwhelmed by the gameplay. All I experienced in this game was easy to solve puzzles. Nearly no story. No mystery. And no shock factor at all. If I had one word to describe the gameplay for this game, it would be “lacking”. There could be so much more done to make it so much more entertaining. Maybe it’s just me; maybe I’m not the kind of person that can just appreciate a puzzle game, and puzzle game only, for what it is. But with as good visuals as this game has, puzzles aren’t enough. I need a story...that is, something to keep me hooked. Without having that, games like these get boring fast. I would suggest passing on buying this game if you want something more than visuals and simple puzzles. If you want something more fulfilling, maybe try a game like “The Silent Age”. It has excellent visuals, somewhat challenging puzzles (but not too challenging), AND has a super compelling story with a more than satisfying ending..Version: 2.5.2

Cute game with terrible controlsNo one play tested this. The navigation is the worst in any iOS game I’ve played. The game is cute. The puzzles might be interesting if you can find and then navigate to them. The help system is neat the first time you encounter it, but gets very annoying when you need to access it on every puzzle. The puzzles aren’t terribly complex, but there are few clues as to what needs to be done, and navigation makes it difficult to solve every puzzle. Do not waste money on this..Version: 2.5.2

Lovely looking gamePlaying this on tvOS and experienced many crashes..Version: 2.5.2

Good graphicsGood graphics, gameplay a bit fragmented. Lighting too dark in places to see what you need to do and updates are massive at over 2gb... Good game but does need a little work..Version: 1.8

Beautiful but poorly designedThe music and graphics are top notch but unfortunately the game just does not make any sense. Parts of the game are so difficult my engineering friends could not figure it out. I’ve been stuck on the lightwell for over a year and each time I leave the game for a few weeks and come back it seems like there is no path forward. The mechanics of the game are unintuitive (where you tap, how certain levels work, the interactivity of the map, etc. etc.) I’ve looked up walkthroughs but people seem to just click randomly and rapidly because you have better luck with sheer randomness than you do using your brain. I wanted to like this game but it’s so deeply frustrating. Please fix this!!!.Version: 2.5.2

This game crashes A LOTOk I'm playing for the first time and in the the first minute it crash and I'm like oh ok. I go back on to it. And it crash AGAIN in it the first minute or so. It happen again and again for like two more time and I stop and I did this report. I'm NOT lying this did really happen. THIS GAME IS A MONEY WASTER IT THEY DON'T FIX THISAND TIME WASTER. Now sorry if u were thinking I was a little rude but I'm just trying to make it a bit, well a lot better so it doesn't CRASH every 1 minute. Ok sorry again if u thought I was being a bit rude, I am truly sorry. Bye.Version: 2.1

Utterly broken on Apple TVGreat game ruined by being on Apple TV. Game just grinds to a halt. It's so broken it's embarrassing..Version: 1.4

Difficult, tedious, not for autistic people..The picture of the sweet little girl being carried by a bubble is not an accurate description of the game.. its not a gentle fluid game, its tedious and the people in the game the girl has to talk to are not encouraging and she has to do everything herself and things creek, and make noises, just cant enjoy the cuteness because of the difficult mechanic work, i thought i was gunna be flying on bubble. :( I cant play it because im autistic and it takes a lot of problem solving and executive function, which caused me great frustration and it felt like a great stressful burden to have to restore a whole city with only a book. Also there are no hints at all.. I wish i could return it. Idk why i try anything.. all this modern design is made for neurotypicals. Im not a mechanic and its really hard to play, i feel confused as what to do and did not even make it past the gate, all i got where the lemons... too difficult to play on iphone, use an ipad only...Version: 2.5.1

Expected more from this gameDownloaded based on the novelty that this game was built by hand, but it ended up disappointing. The visuals are decent but the storyline is lackluster and dry, the UI is terrible and the puzzles are challenging but ultimately meaningless. I expected a lot more here especially since it was selected as editors choice. The developers had a lot of potential here but they left it sitting on the table..Version: 2.5.2

Crashes on ATV4KWe are frustrated because it keeps crashing at the Park level on ATV4K. Please provide and update to sort it out :(.Version: 2.5.1

Tvos16.2The game it doesn’t run on this os. Can you make a update please..Version: 2.5.2

Not For “Kids”The reason I didn’t put 5 stars is because this game has language, 2 characters say the D word, The handler of the crane, and the person with the net in the Sky Garden. I’m also reporting the puzzles, they’re very HARD that kids who play the game have to use the guide book “Every Time”! You lied about the age rating too so please, remove the language and make the puzzles “Easier” so that this game will really match the age rating, please! P.S., I hope State Of Play is reading this..Version: 2.5.2

Not quite for meIt’s a descent game but the puzzles are not good they don’t make any sense! There so confusing and frustrating. It will be like follow the arrow, but there will be 15 arrows pointing in different directions! Ugg! The graphics are beautiful. The graphics are like nothing I have ever seen before. And I’m sure they took a lot of work too but THE GAME PLAY IS HORRIBLE. it’s like they took 2 years to make the graphics. And 2 hours to make the game play. I wouldn’t buy it if I had a chance to get it again!.Version: 2.5.2

Beautiful game, but unplayable on Apple TVIt took forever for developers to update this game so it wouldn't crash when launched on Apple TV. Now it launches, but Apple remote doesn't respond to one of the earliest puzzles, the lemon circuit puzzle. You have to twist the lemons to place them properly, and they don't twist. Frustrating bug for a great game. (Also tried nimbus controller which didn't work with game at all).Version: 2.1

Was enjoying this butMy progress wasn’t saved…got everyone up to help with crane, but when I opened game next day…back to stage one with crane?? Really frustrating. Deleted..Version: 2.5.2

Super cute game but some puzzles too hardAnd the game itself is so small I can’t turn it landscape. Some of the items (levers, doors etc) as too small to see..Version: 2.5.2

I WOULD NOT EVEN PAY 99 cents FOR THIS.I consider myself to be a bit of a “graphics snob,” so it always catches my attention when there’s a game with rave reviews about its graphics, and the actual game play is equally as important. The screenshots didn’t look impressive to me at all, but I also understood this was made using real world objects and that sometimes screenshots can be rather misleading. There are so many great reviews about the game play, so I figured that even if the graphics are as disappointing as the screenshots look, I’d still enjoy the game. Wrong, wrong wrong. The graphics look exactly as you see here. I happen to be an artist, too, yet I have so little appreciation for the design of these “sets,” or whatever you might call them if they can’t be called “graphics.” I can’t think of a better description than “Childish.” (Maybe children would love this game? That’s a possibility...) As for the game play: Ugh. It’s just so plain stupid. Maybe I’m spoiled from the great games I have played? Maybe I expect to be challenged more than others? This game was so uninteresting to me in every way that I deleted it before even completing it. I’d rather re-play one of The Room games than play this game for another second. Gadz, I really regret paying money for this....Version: 2.5.1

Not long enough for the moneyChallenging yes, worth the money no! A 2 hour plane journey and I completed the game - for the £4.99 I would have expected a game that requires at least treble if not more of a time frame to complete. I’m not the most experienced puzzler so no doubt it can be completed a lot quicker. Whistle the game play is good, the aesthetics are great I’m extremely disappointed it doesn’t last!.Version: 2.5.2

Not working under AppleTV OS15Just bought this but it won't work on AppleTV OS15, says the developer needs to update the app. Useless purchase, will ask for a refund..Version: 2.5.2

The sound is broken on iPhone 14 pro maxThe sound has strange annoying distortion on the iPhone 14 pro max. Couldn’t even start playing the game..Version: 2.5.2

Nice game serious issuesDoesn’t work with Game Center, crashes during play without saving, no response from developer. Looks like they’ve stopped development but are still cashing in.Version: 2.5.2

Not good for meGame just keeps getting kicked off and back to my desktop. Can't get past the back door to follow grandad. Was expensive. Would like reimbursement thank you..Version: 2.1

Not super worth itSo the game is well crafted as far as the artistic side of it goes, however, the functionalities really, really lack. The character doesn’t respond like you intend and it gets incredibly frustrating because you will be forced to start the whole segment over again. I found it seriously aggravating more than a couple times. Had I not paid for it, I wouldn’t have continued playing..Version: 2.5.1

Doesn't support iPhone XThe screen is still yet too small to be fully shown on iPhone X. Hinders the experience. For an app so popular I would expect them to have upgraded !.Version: 2.5.2

Decent but not amazingThe aesthetic of the game is good but the controls are awkward and difficult at times which can get really annoying. I’m not normally one to complain about game controls but they are really not very good here..Version: 2.5.1

Good game, but issues with tvOS versionLike many other reviewers, I am very impressed with the attention to detail in the game, and I've greatly enjoyed playing it - on my phone. However, for us, it's almost unplayable on the TV because the automatic download between stages doesn't seem to work properly. The download stalls, and nothing works. I've tried many workarounds to no avail. I don't know if it is to do with the new app thinning technology, but would appreciate feedback..Version: 2

BeautifulA beautiful game with good puzzles but I am stuck on the oar efficiency puzzle. There seems to be multiple ways to complete it but the game is not indicating if I should move on. Also sometimes your character gets stuck and won’t walk where you want them to walk..Version: 2.5.2

Needs updateNo longer compatible on latest OS.Version: 2.5.2

Lovely designOn the whole I enjoyed the game and really appreciate the craftsmanship that went into its design. The only thing I would say is that it’s a bit difficult to play it on your phone because of the lengthy conversations you need to read the main character has with all other people she meets on her way. Some of the conversations are sort of funny but long but they don’t bring anything to the game. You are stuck there in the middle of the new task for a couple of minutes waiting till they finish. I found it slightly irritating to the point when I was dreading another dialogue. Also what if someone doesn’t even speak English and can’t read the dialogues? It limits the game’s audience. I never really got over the chapter with the house that you have to turn around. It’s a genius concept but the detail is too small to play on my phone. It’s a game for a big screen and the rare moments in your life when you have plenty of time to sit back, read everything and appreciate all the quirks..Version: 2.5.2

Beautiful game that is hard to seeI’m really enjoying this game but right out the gate I’m hitting problems where I’m straining my eyes to read the small writing in the book and on other papers in the game on my iPhone 8. At times it’s entirely illegible. There’s no zoom or magnifier feature, a fix that would be so easy to implement and that so many reviews have requested that I wonder why it’s not here yet. This is a huge shame because the art in the game deserves close inspection, but one a phone screen, the resolution just isn’t there to see it. I bought the game on the recommendation of a friend but I didn’t realize her tablet version would make such a difference..Version: 2.5.1

Game Not Working 🙁I’ve played and completed this game in the past, and absolutely loved it. Downloaded it to play again and can’t get past the stairwell at the start. After picking up the stick and holding it, the game keeps bringing up the prompt ‘Tap on bag to look inside’. Now stuck in this loop and game won’t allow Lumi to walk over to the winch. Please fix this beautiful game..Version: 2.5.2

Does not play on 2016 Apple TVI’d like to play this game and have purchased it on Apple TV but it won’t play. I’m not able to find any information that might help me sort this out so I’m now seeking a refund from Apple - does anyone here know how I get a refund?.Version: 2.5.1

Frustrating game... but beautifulI really wanted to love this game, but I find it extremely frustrating that you have to keep referring to the “book”, and then try to read the TiNY print! It made my eyes and head hurt, and I’ve tried playing multiple times. I wish you could access the guide book in a easier way- larger ( I’m not old, not blind BTW), and easier to get the page you need. On the plus side, it’s beautiful and the attention to detail is admirable!! If you could make obtaining the book instructions easier, I would gladly increase the star rating..Version: 2.5.2

BoringThis game is soooooo boring and gives the audience and old mood, Its just boring DONT DOWNLOAD.Version: 2.5.1
