## The Almost Gone Reviews in United States

### *---- "why doesn’t it save across devices?"
i played this game for 6 hours straight and the next time i opened it  (the next day) i was back at the beginning. i went to my phone where i had it downloaded and my progress wasn’t their either. i don’t even want to continue playing if my progress can’t save. i originally was playing this on netflix but then it started glitching so bad on the tv. i tried exiting and returning. i tried restarting the tv to no avail but i like it so much that i decided to pay for it but even the paid version is glitching. the purchase hasn’t even been processed that’s how fresh my purchase is. it hasn’t even been 24 hours and i can’t get a refund. when i go online to report a problem through apple i can’t even get to the developers website. this is a mess and a huge disappointment.

### *---- "Poorly made as a mobile game"
Playing this as a mobile game was a terrible experience. The game seemed underdeveloped and poorly executed. The game setup is very small and hard to use. Things such as the inventory and the pop ups were very glitchy and you couldn’t read half of the words that came on the screen because of how bad it was designed. Honestly I regret downloading this, I felt like it was a waste of money and I genuinely want my money back.
-- Patterson.4, 2024-07-09

### ***-- "Inventory Puzzle, Interesting story, some bugs on ipad"
The puzzle is played out more through the story than it is through gameplay… likely would have gotten similar experience in less time by just watching the walk through. End occurred too rapidly to feel satisfying. Aesthetics look like Monument Valley… but has very little of the grace and actual puzzle of that brilliant game. Likely would have rated this higher if I hadn’t thought it was going to be like MV. Interesting story that unfolds… quite spooky in places, clever in others…both were fun.  Worth the time for .99 USD, but I’m not fond of inventory puzzles so, had I know that’s what this was, I probably wouldn’t have gotten it. 

Had difficulty playing on my iPad as interactive circles were too close to navigation map and settings hamburger menu. I would click the circle to interact with an item but open the map instead… got a weird glitch in the inventory that would show two of the same item at the same time. Bugs frustrating enough that I ended up switching to my phone mid game and had to start again (tho easier 2nd time as I already new the codes to jump ahead).

### ***** "Amazing"
This was awesome
-- Jethro7274, 2024-05-14

### ***** "Good"
Good Game 😃
-- CfchtfdjtffdcdDragon, 2024-04-22

### ***** "Great!)"
Almost reminds me of the genius of the Monument Valley Games Series. Well done, especially with your motifs.
-- rickiryu, 2024-04-15

### ***-- "Poor ending"
Navigation was constantly frustrating, especially in the bigger maps. 
Chapter 3 & 4 were pretty good. 
The ending seemed like they did not have enough budget to design the puzzles.

Story is so-so… I know it’s meant to be tragic family story, but it’s not really immersive, and kind of cliche.
-- shiqing_, 2023-10-20

### ****- "One of the nonsense game"
Boxed game
-- BigeastT, 2023-09-19

### ***** "Fantastic Game"
I felt this game was the perfect difficulty for me. I really enjoyed working out the puzzles.
-- iheartnjdevils, 2023-07-19

### *---- "Too small"
Could not get into this game. Everything was sooo small, not at all like in the photos on the app page. Just hated it. Sorry I spent the $.
-- Me90521, 2022-08-18

### ***** "Most excellent"
If the minds behind “The Room”, got together in a party with the Developers behind “Monument Valley” and started chatting the the twisted minds behind “Rusty Lake” and wanted to do a game that evoked the sentiment behind “Life Is Strange” then… well I guess that’s what happened here.

A most excellent puzzler - a dark story where you, as the lead character - seem to be on  quest to understand the psychosis behind their parents (probable) death.

Kids won’t get this detail, adults however who understand how they inherit their parents problems probably will. The subject matter is dark - suicide is strongly implied as behind at least one death, as is drugs, alcohol and infidelity.

As such this game is pretty raw.

That said, it was deeply thought provoking. I, for one, was extremely impressed with the depth of the story telling. The imagery and settings were extremely well done.

Bravo to the developers.

If you’re into pondering how part A connects to scene 3 then this is your game. No action here though - your brain does all the hard work and you can otherwise take your time over the game. Which, for me, is exactly how I like my games.
-- THE Tiggr, 2022-07-29

### ****- "Loved this game although it was confusing"
This game was awesome, plenty of puzzles along with mysterious stories. I do admit I got stuck at some parts but I found my way through by randomly clicking things.
-- unknown637, 2022-05-09

### ****- "Challenging puzzles, puzzling story"
If you like puzzle games, and ethereal, convoluted stories, this game is for you!
-- yus1, 2022-04-29

### ***** "Great game!!!"
Enjoyed the story plus the puzzles!!
-- Kimmyfrog, 2022-03-01

### ***** "Amazing game about generational trauma*"
I highly, highly recommend this game. *Just a heads up, there are spoilers at the end of this review. People who liked “Gone Home,” and “Forever Lost” will love it. I played on my iPad and was glued to the story and gameplay all weekend. I read the reviews before I bought it, and I thought there was far more game for my dollar than I expected. It’s a good, solid length. 
The story is dark, but as someone who loves the “Fran Bow,” series, a dark story is a plus. The ending, from my perspective, is very clear. The character tells us what’s happening throughout, especially at the beginning of each chapter. I, like many others, found navigation a bit of an issue, so that’s my one quibble.
TLDR: Great game. Buy it.

******************spoilers below********************

The End: The character is dying. He keeps saying he’s not hungry or thirsty, he can’t even conceive of what that’s like. You’ll notice at the start of each chapter it tells you how long “before.” The last chapter in the tree house was only seconds before. I believe it means before the character dies. The game is called “The Almost Gone.” At the end of the game, the character is dead/gone.
So the gameplay represents those few moments before death. The character, who seems pretty wounded/upset about his parents and his childhood, learns in those moments about what his own parents went through and maybe why they acted the way they did.
-- Agpaffc, 2022-01-09

### ***-- "Story without end"
Pretty, but somewhat painful to navigate using an iPad. I only expected a bit of different entertainment and that is what I got, but felt very disappointed with the ending.
-- Anna Vashka, 2021-01-13

### **--- "Unplayable on the 2020 SE"
I'd love to play this but even with decent vision I literally can't read the words on the screen because they are microscopic. Maybe it'll be better on my iPad, but I just wanted to play it on my phone.
-- Dmickey321, 2020-12-13

### ***** "Thank"
On a top shelve with rusty lake series
-- Avramis 1011, 2020-11-26

### ***-- "Buggy as hell"
Update
I found out the game is playable ind vertical mode if you don‘t switch between horizontal and vertical during playing. 
Annoying still but bearable. 
If the game is awesome I‘ll come back and rate it 4-5*. 

Old review
Sorry that I have to write such a harsh review but I never payed money for such a messed up game. On my iPhone 7 with latest iOS it is unplayable. The rooms are turned on their heads sometimes and with that the texts are upside down when you turn the phone, scaling is a mess in vertical mode, graphic is sometimes heavily pixeled etc. 
I have no idea why this happens on my phone but it is extremely annoying. 
Can‘t recommend the game in such a messy state...
-- Daniels55555, 2020-11-24

### ***** "Lost progress after update......"
I just finished chapter 2 and was really enjoying the game. But after updating to the newest version I am back in chapter 1 now.... Kinda annoying since I have to do it all over again...
