Secret Files: Sam Peters

Graphics good. Game ok so far thru intro. Are we supposed to hate the main character? She’s really an awful person.

I love these games! I got all the way through it without any glitches which made the game unplayable like secret files 2 where we first meet Sam. But you don’t need to do the previous game to make sense of this one. Have fun!

This game lost me at the intro....the writing is terrible, ridiculous and dated. I really wish I hadn’t given this company money.

Like the character and don't mind the language though there were a couple of spots it seemed overdone. Interesting story concept though not particularly realistic (I work in that field)--but liked it a lot. Very good graphics and character movement, mostly, but has the same issues noted with Tunguska--has to walk a very specific path to look at or examine certain objects, even if already right next to it--and movement very natural at times but not so much other times. I think I prefer the way the inventory was set up for Tunguska--a row at bottom of page rather than having to open the suitcase and covers the screen but that is minor and personal preference. Biggest issue is the short story. Not even half the content of Tunguska (though I guess that is why it costs so much less) and very few other characters--even the couple of other characters have very limited "screen time." Another minor issue was found it very difficul to successfully click on some the magnifying glasses that denoted items to examine. Sometimes there would be no response and other times you'd highlight Sam (because she was standing there) but you couldn't get the item. Found the puzzles to be less obtuse than Tunguska (maybe just because were fewer of them) but still a couple where the solution seemed kind of random. From what I've seen of these devs, I like their offerings and would recommend their apps but this one less enthusiastically because of how short it is and the lack of characters other than Sam Peters.

Just when you think it’s about to get started, it ends. Not worth buying.

I like the game, but every time I try to go to the mission she goes back to the camp. I’ve tried multiple times.

Enjoyed the adventure but the bad language really was unnecessary. I wanted to share it with family members but could not. Please remove the bad language, it doesn’t enhance the game

Superb graphics, interesting story and puzzles. iPhone 7 the small windows thrust sometimes open in the corner doesn’t work and just shower as black screen. Not enough characters and dialogs. Most is the lead talking to herself.

Idea and game is good. Puzzles make you think outside the box. Sometimes too much so. If you get the sequence of adding items together wrong there’s no going back and taking it apart to try again, you need to restart to your last save location. Annoying. Hard to use inventory items. Hard to see items to click. Weird combinations of items are the solutions. A lot of times I try the right item and it doesn’t work. Currently stuck at the hog. Can’t get passed him even with using the game hint/cheat. Think it’s a glitch. Sigh.

This was a fun and engaging game. It's not an over the top action/thriller but it did keep me interested & engaged throughout. The puzzles aren't difficult but I don't think any of the puzzles in the more mainstream developers are mindbenders either. There were no glitches whatsoever & I had no issues with the game controls once I understood them (ei: moving characters around, picking up items). What I really liked was the main character-it's nice to see a woman character who is tough, who doesn't mind sprinkling in a little profanity to make her point & who can take care of herself in any situation. She can take on the case, solve a mystery, yet still be a woman at the end of the day. Games need more characters like that. What I LOVED tho was the ending where there was a moral discussion about indigenous peoples struggle to ward off outside aggressors while trying to maintain their own culture. I certainly didn't expect to see THAT in a game like this-it added depth & provided some food for thought in what would normally be considered a kiddie game.
