I don’t know what is up with all the negativity in the reviews, I really like this game even with a few things I would change. Yes,the music is a little creepy and it does make you feel a little on edge but you can mute your mic and not listen to it, it is incredibly hard to play the ones that are all black when you don’t know where the light button is. And lastly, when you are in Alaska and you go back to look for clues your screen goes black .It could be my iPad. We’ve had it for about three years and it’sbeen dropped more than once. Please fix these few things! Overall, everything is amazing and fun. Every level leaves you wanting more! And as far as relaxing games go, this ones been the best!
I didn’t even want to try it after reading the negative reviews. I’m so glad I went one step farther and read the Today article. Idk how long ago those neg reviews were written, and whether the game got better after that. But I wonder if ppl are going in with wrong expectations, or maybe most game players are into action or at least figuring out game strategy. Because, yeah, I definitely see how none of those approaches are going to get you off the ground in Cessabit. I’m calling it Genius bc it’s making me think about what I see and how I interact with it in a way that my conditioned brain hasn’t had to deal with since I was probably about 5yo! Interesting and ironic that, yeah, kids really are so creative and not just out of the box but instead don’t yet know what “the box” is! Remember when your mind worked more with images and ideas and interactions...and then with WORDS, no, not so much? I remember it, and I bet you do, too. That’s why I find Cessabit to be very challenging, but also exciting. It’s almost like I can FEEL that long lost part of my brain firing up again! I certainly am not acing the questions about the images, at least not the first time through, but there’s no pressure, you can just keep going back to the image and trying again. So I guess that part is relaxing, after all. Mostly I feel like I’m learning something long forgotten. No, it’s better than that; it’s realizing that those long forgotten lessons have been well missed. I may go back through all those negative reviews and change my Helpful vote to Not Helpful. This developer is not some idiot or a-hole; this developer is a genius!!
This game is much more stressful than stress relief, especially with the creepy music in the background. What is more infuriating for me personally is that they will ask you their questions but provide the answers that are completely wrong or make no sense. So either they are not asking the right question or didn’t explain their rules well enough. A couple examples:#1) apparently when you see a bird AND hear bird noises, those noises couldn’t possibly be coming from that bird. Oh no! The answer is 2, duh. Why not add questions that are auditory based observations? Or make some of the puzzles for people that prefer auditory stimulation as a stress relief function? Because in a VISUAL game if I see 1 bird, there is 1 bird. Hear chirping from 1 bird? Then it is liking from that 1 bird you see in the picture... #2) they frame their pictures into the shape of another object. Like in a slice of pizza, then ask how many trees there are......but then proceed to not give you the option for how many trees you saw.... huh? What? Are they counting the pizza as a tree because it’s also a triangle? Why not just ask about shapes? Even though it only cost 2$, it’s a waste of money, I’m never playing this game again. I’m tensing up just thinking about it. Don’t get it.
Hey, it was extremely fun. I love this game, but wish there are more games and hint button. I couldn’t see sunset at inside stage and stars at space stage, I just played a lot :-) I look forward to next upgrade!
This is a good game for babies, or maybe people who don’t like games. It requires no skill, and brings very little in the way of feeling accomplishment. Also I noticed a glitch where about 50% of the time, if I finished or lost a level, I was met with a white screen with no prompts or way out of it other than to kill the app. Overall not a great experience. I only felt inclined to review it because I paid 2 bucks for it. It should be free, until the developer can assure it’s worth the money. There seems to be a trend of just making a really easy, half put-together game, slapping some ethereal music behind it, and calling it a “stress-relief” game. Which is ironic, given how the constant bugs made for a pretty stressful experience
I really love the concept of this game, but there are some pretty major problems. 1. Not enough levels. I assumed there would be a decent amount of levels, but as of right now, there aren’t. I finished them all in about an hour. 2 There is no way to tell which levels you have beaten and which you haven’t. 3. I’m not sure I would consider this game “relaxing”. Some of the puzzle are down right frustrating.
You are correct. You’re swiping around and tapping random things because there is no real rhyme or reason to why anything occurs. The game mechanics are just to manipulate the scene until you find everything, but it doesn't even indicate if anything is still missing. It almost supposed to be like an interactive ISPY, but it fails so bad that I wish I could get my money back. It’s as if it was made by an artist with not one idea about game design.
This is an interesting app. Unfortunately sometimes when I touch the image absolutely nothing happens. I go back later and a few things happen. So when presented with images and questions to answer I have not seen the objects/images no matter how many times I have tapped. When I close the app and go back in one or two appear. Is this supposed to happen?
