Das Rätsel von Sycamore Hill

Ein tolles und spannendes Spiel!

At first this looked like a low-quality game that was possibly going to be poorly made, illogical, etc. But it turned out not to be. The graphics aren’t as good as some other games, and there’s not a whole lot to interact with, but I actually ended up liking that. Some games have you click on a million things or have only a tiny area of the screen be the place you have to touch. I welcomed the simplicity of this game. The puzzles came at a regular pace and weren’t too difficult. The items acquired throughout the game were all eventually used and weren’t unnecessarily left in the inventory. I enjoyed the mystery as well, you had no idea what the story was behind the creepy mansion. Pretty good game, thanks.

I didn’t quite understand what to do

This game was entertaining, and just the right amount of challenging! The puzzles are varied, with a good balance of tickling your brain, but not frustrating. The graphics are good, with several well-crafted landscapes. Best of all, there aren’t any options to purchase, purchase, purchase your way through the game if you get stumped. Finished it within a day, but had a blast!

Game gives no hints on how to solve puzzles. Thank goodness it allows you to skip or I never would have completed. Could not find a walkthrough. No easy way to navigate from place to place either.

This was a short but great game. It is like the classic point-and-click adventure games. The puzzles are challenging, some more than others. There is no hint button in the free version. I really liked it, and the soundtrack was nice. There is no voiceover. If you want to more story, you can read the notes throughout the game, but they aren’t necessary to progress. The artwork was nice, too. The game was effective in providing a mysterious atmosphere. I would love for the developers to make more mystery games with unique puzzles like this one. If the paid version has more content, I probably have to get it. :-)

To those interested: This is a fun game but story is not great (sorry damo). It has great music and fun but easy puzzles, would recommended fun time absorber. P.S. The game has ads but they are very non-intuitive, after all they have to pay for it somehow. But if you don’t like ads or would like to support them, they have a premium version available. (At time of writing the price is $4.99) To developers: Room 64 & 66 are pointless and aren’t necessary to complete the game along with the corresponding items (wrench and spray bottle) which makes the manikin room (don’t know the number) and the rake unnecessary. I quite literally had no clue what to do there and I am curious about what was supposed to happen. Also is the tricycle room a movie reference? I also thought that the wardrobe might be too, and maybe the baby stroller. I’m not complaining about the stroller and tricycle rooms even if they are pointless to puzzles they give ambience, I’m just really confused about room 64 & 66. Thanks for reading and making a fun free game.

I really enjoyed this game, it was difficult enough that I wasn’t bored & actually ended up buying some hints to figure out some of the puzzles, although I could have figured them out eventually. I just have no patience, lol. But it wasn’t so difficult that I gave up on the game in frustration. And I really appreciate the storyline, so many of these games cop out with a supernatural bent. I do not play any game that is paranormal or supernatural, so I super appreciate this game & hope they will make more!

I generally love games like this, but this game was weird. No walk through or free hints had to figure it on my own which was frustrating and I gave up half way through (I think it was half way) the map didn’t help that much only made me more frustrated. Wouldn’t really recommend d this game.

I bought unlimited hints and it is stuck on the same hint for at least three days now so I can’t move forward with game. Rip off!
