## Necronomicon Reviews in United States

### *---- "Waste of time and money"
You can’t get out of the town.  there’s a complete glitch in the system.  Everywhere it takes you as a dead end and the game can’t be played
-- sanhoelow, 2025-01-07

### *---- "Almost unplayable"
On my phone the text is so small the only way to read it is with magnifier or take screen shots and zoom in. Also, early on in my first experience it got locked into one screen (with this slight shaking happening) and even starting over wouldn’t change it. So I had to reinstall to unfreeze it.
-- Nat.Venger, 2024-12-12

### ***** "A truly awesome game"
I love this game and I feel that it deserves a much higher rating then the 2.8 rating that it has. I am able to progress through the game and it is a lot of fun, and not one bit boring.
-- CuddlyVegan, 2023-04-14

### ***** "So great!"
I remember playing this YEARS ago on my old Dell computer!  I loved it then and I love it here now!
-- Edubba, 2021-10-09

### *---- "Terrible, Boring Game"
I got this app several years ago -ignoring the bad reviews. Big Mistake! OMG, it is one of the worse games I’ve ever played. Tried playing, rather - I finally gave up out of boredom. Truly awful: buggy, tedious, bad graphics, etc. Can’t imagine it is playable on any recent iOS version.
-- Pelean, 2018-10-05

### *---- "terrible"
I have fond memories of this old adventure game because it was my first introduction to Lovecraft, but honestly it&#039;s probably one of the worst games ever made.
-- Johnnyt471, 2017-07-04

### **--- "Truly terrible"
Some of the Microids games ported to iOS have been enjoyable, with intuitive controls, outstanding graphics, and an engaging storyline. Necronomicon fails on all levels.

The standard point and click aspects are rendered as awkwardly as possible, from inventory management to interacting with the scenes.  The &quot;map&quot; that you obtain soon into the game is useless  and only takes you from one large area to another. You will spend most of your time walking in circles when you follow the green arrows that indicate your only movement options. Areas marked as Iive may not be -- you will frequently get a response along the lines of &quot;come back later.&quot;  WHEN to come back appears to be the only puzzle presented by the game.

Item use is irrational, e.g.,the same key opens a desk drawer and operates a motorcycle.

The plot broadly consists of helping your friend who has fallen prey to evil. I was fine with letting him rot.  The characters and environment are so exceedingly dull, I felt like I was the much greater victim and doomed to purgatory for the duration of the gameplay.

Rating this 2 stars only because I reserve 1 star ratings for games that are literally unplayable.
-- jennifer626, 2016-03-12

### *---- "beWAre Bugs,won&#039;t save, have to start anew each time"
Shame on you for not pulling this game.  If your not willing to fix it then why would you continue to sell it. I&#039;ve played many of your games.  This was a huge letdown, from seeing all the bad reviews I am not alone.  I hope someone chokes on every unearned penny you get from the disappointed customers who deserve to get a game that at the very least can be played. I give you one star you know that is because 0 isn&#039;t an option.  This game is a zero, my opinion of the makers as well.  Obviously you have no scruples. iTUNEs should pull this garbage, I want a refund too.
-- Beebuzzkill, 2014-12-23

### *---- "Trash"
Read the reviews, it&#039;s all true. This game is more trouble than fun. It is dark, graphics blurry, makes no sense, and a huge time waster because of its linear structure. You can do all kinds of things, walk all over, and gather all manner of objects but ultimately, though I have returned to it again and again, progress is impossible even with a walkthrough. I am deleting it from all devices.
-- Gates of Eden, 2013-12-31

### *---- "Useless"
The worst game ever created and request my money back
-- $&amp;&amp;@&amp;$, 2012-12-14
