## The Talos Principle Reviews in United States

### ***** "Brilliant Game"
I was drawn into this game as soon as I started playing and have been collecting sigils and stars ever since. I strongly advise playing this game with a compatible game controller. There are many areas in the game that require twitchy fingers and I don’t think I would have gotten through them without a controller.
-- Kencathedrus, 2024-06-09

### ***-- "A bit repetitive"
I played this for a bit but honestly would rather play House of da Vinci over again or Room, or Machinarium
-- Sueinmon, 2024-06-09

### **--- "Touch interface issues"
I’ve tried to play through this game a number of times over the years and always reach a point of frustration with the controls and the implementation, leading me to abandon the game again.

In short, the touch controls make a handful of levels almost impossible.  On top of that, the implementation of the save function takes the player back to the beginning of a level, erasing any progress, and forcing one to re-do everything in that level over and over.  Very, very, very tedious.  For these levels, this is no longer a puzzle game, but an exercise in frustration.

### ***** "This game is awesome"
I keep checking every few months hoping to see a 2nd one is coming soon… Maybe? 🤞
-- KhaleesiGFY, 2023-10-28

### ***** "Talos"
Indeed at first I was worried about it now can’t get enough of talos and I understood it now I enjoy it more and more this game is not for everyone
-- chuck of meats, 2023-03-16

### *---- "So bored."
Sorry I paid money for this. Just carrying around a camera thing for the first hour walking around a maze and gave up. Ok, it has nice graphics. But this is not a puzzle game, it’s just a walk around game. No patience to wait it out to see if ANYTHING happens.
-- AKpianoplayer, 2023-02-12

### ***** "So good! Extra campaigns please!"
Hello, how can we buy all the extra campaigns thanks! Road to Gehenna!!!!

 I’ve NEVER had a problem with the controls! I find them to work awesome fast and smooth. Just have to get a little used to it or turn up the sensitivity. I guess it is finicky sometimes to find certain points you need to connect to with the beams but other than that no probs
-- chroko29, 2022-10-29

### ***** "Why Fame Swaz Loves This Game"
I love this wonderful idea of a game. I feel like its a problem solving simulation like experience.... Thanks for this wonderful Ride YOOO*
-- Fame swaz, 2022-10-13

### **--- "Disappointed"
Sorry y’all - I see the great reviews, and that’s why I downloaded it.  I had done a Google search (yeah, first mistake) for “iOS games like The Room,” and this one came up (amongst all the ones I’ve already played).  I was SUPER BORED by this game.  No, I didn’t finish it, because I got fed up waiting for it to become…better.  Now I’m mad that I actually spent dough on it.  If you’re looking for “iOS games like The Room,” this is NOT it.  But maybe you’ll have a different opinion.  I can only give you mine.  Blessings!
