The first app like this I have used
I really enjoyed the puzzles in this game but I felt the epilogue was pretty spine chilling. It was a great spy game.
DEVICE 6
Published by: Simogo
Description
** Winner of Apple Design Award 2014 **
A surreal thriller in which the written word is your map, as well as your narrator.
DEVICE 6 plays with the conventions of games and literature, entwines story with geography and blends puzzle and novella, to draw players into an intriguing mystery of technology and neuroscience.
Anna wakes up in a castle on a remote island, with little recollection of how she got there. All she remembers is an unusually unpleasant doll.
Why are there two identical castles on the island? Who is the mysterious man in the bowler hat? And above all, what is the purpose of the tests Anna is put through?
Read, listen and peek into three-dimensional photographs to solve the bizarre mysteries of DEVICE 6.
"DEVICE 6 is designed to linger in the mind long after the last code has been cracked and the last sentence read. Spy stories - even traditional ones - often haunt their readers' dreams once they've been completed. It's only appropriate, really. Is that a final full-stop or a microdot? Is this the end of the affair or an invitation to go deeper?"
Eurogamer - 9/10
"In using its text both as narrative and as geography – and through its impressively restrained use of illustration and sound – it generates an almost unrivalled sense of place. It isn’t embarrassed to allow Device 6 to be a game when it needs to be, and yet it knows precisely when to let the story take over. The result is a sharp, striking mystery that is at once provocative, extraordinarily stylish and altogether essential"
EDGE - 9/10
"In turning a text adventure into a world map, Simogo has resurrected a long-dead genre with style and confidence. Great presentation and brilliant puzzles complete a stellar package"
Pocketgamer – 9/10
"Ever exceeding expectations, the developer has followed up one of 2013′s highlights with another title that can be classed as such. With a compelling story that keeps you guessing, and a pin-point utilisation of the platform, Device 6 is an accomplishment in games design, mobile or otherwise"
God is a Geek - 9/10
"DEVICE 6 not only explores the boundaries of narrative storytelling, it also demonstrates the creative potential of touchscreen gaming"
Appspy – 5/5
"Simogo’s doing something few others are doing, and it’s wonderful that someone is both providing great experiences and testing the limits of interactive media"
148apps - 5/5
"An ingenious slice of puzzling adventure that's as imaginative as it is stylish"
Modojo - 4.5/5

Unique, captivating, enthralling.
Innovative Storytelling
Wow! What a game, mixes storytelling with mystery and puzzles to create something unique. The game is very addictive and requires you to put your thinking caps on. I highly recommend the game and it is worth the money.
Supremely fun and awesome!
Possibly one of the best puzzle games out there. Great mood and intensity of the game, constantly changing the mood of the game. And it really makes you think and work you brains in order to solve every puzzle. Man, good job with the game. :)
Mysteriously Engaging!
This text-based game is a mysterious meta-fiction novella with riveting sound effects, music and visuals. Yet another uniquely engaging and original game from Simogo. This is the second mind-blowing treat from them in barely six months. The only way to really appreciate this game is play and experience it. Try it today!
Best alternative / indie game I've played
The style, gameplay, graphics and sound all flawlessly combine to give a wonderfully unique gaming experience. Whoever thought of this... Simply genius. However i would imagine only patient puzzle-type gamers would fully appreciate the game and have patience to crack their brains on the puzzles. It's like reading an interactive book, only waaay cooler. Buy it!
Beautiful game with an amazing story
Graphics and gameplay are really tight. Music and sound draws you in to the world, making you forget that you are really just reading words off a page. What an experience! The story is really gripping and builds up nicely towards the end. My gripes: the game is too short and too pricey. Nevertheless, a great, great game.
Intriguing and fresh
First chapter would take a long time to solve, as you need to adjust to the game's unique presentation. But after that, this game's a blast. Puzzles are great, story is mysterious. Pity it's not that long. But really, what i like about this game is its one-of-a-kind design. Very very interesting.
Game of the year
Brilliant Graphic Design with moving interactive text and images Intriguing Story Fascinating game play and puzzles just the right side of challenging.
