We've squashed bugs and made behind-the-scenes improvements to bring Netflix members the best possible gameplay experience.
I love this game this game the first time I played it was the original mobile version and I fell in love with the characters, Story and soundtrack. I obviously needed to redownload it once I saw a new version of it. It’s still just as good as when I first played it and I don’t know if they did a graphics update or not but the art style is still so good. But I keep crashing during the scenes where Alex talks to her past self in the reflections after you go to the other side. Hopefully there will be a newer update that could fix this. I’ve looked up online how to try and fix it but none of it has worked and everything from my phone to the game is up to date.
So the story seemed pretty interesting (I didn't finish though because of what comes next, so I don't know if it was ALL good) - the weird parts were creepy enough and intriguing enough to want to find out more. The gameplay however was way too drawn out. SO much walking everywhere, even to places you've already been to - using the map for shortcuts would have been really nice. And navigation is often buggy - your character getting stuck or not progressing properly until you've tapped a bunch of times or fiddled with it (once even my companion got stuck and stopped following me, though his dialog continued, which was weird). So much talking too, and much of it just boring chatter (especially from the two guys). Plus, the dialog choices don't all stay available long enough, and there are even times when choosing a dialog ends up overlapping other dialog, making it hard to hear/read both. Then there's the saving - it only saves at the beginning of each area, so if you complete an entire area but don't move on to the next (like if you suddenly have something else to do), you end up having to repeat the entire area! This was also not indicated at the beginning, so you don't find out till you end up having to repeat an area.
I usually don’t like these kind of games but this game was so engaging and forced you to really think about your decision and pay attention. The amount of detail put into the game is incredible. Like they’ll make references to previous conversations and there are so many different options for dialogue and it all affects the story and how others see you. Someone said that you spend too much time walking but I don’t think so because you have very interesting conversations with the other characters while you’re walking and even then you don’t walk around meaninglessly. Very minor spoiler but when you finish the game it shows you what percentage of players had the same outcomes with other characters and there are so many different outcomes which is so cool and I really wanna see how I can get these different outcomes. I also love how many different ways you can end the game and how it makes you feel like your choices are endless. This is my favorite IOS game ever, can’t wait for the second one.
I scrolled through the 1 star rating and there was a lot of confusion on sound. If your device is on mute, the game is on mute. Anyway first game had me build this relationship with the characters and when the end eventually came, I felt the emotions of finally escaping the night. I also loved how this game talks of heavy topics such as loosing a loved one and suicide. Exploring the trauma the characters went through and are going through brought them more to life. The art style is also a 10/10! The dark aesthetic of the art added to the visual effects, the seriousness of the situation, and the setting of the story. It’s a mystery, story, choice, life lesson game all in one and executed FLAWLESSLY. (Well close to flawless. Wish I had more time to choose responses and stuf like that) Anyway 10/10 recommended.
Am in love with this game!! I love how good the graphics are and how the characters where design. There where some glitches on the game that made me had to restart the game not from the beginning but from where the game automatically saved itself so it was kinda annoying to start from where it got saved cuz I had to do everything all over again… for example Alex glitches sometimes, she like stop moving and I can’t do anything, but overall its super good I highly recommend playing it. I also really like how you can choose how the story can go… I was kinda shocked when I saw the ending… I had to stared at the wall to just process the ending…. I won’t tell you what happen you will have to see for it for yourself… 🙃
I’m really frustrated with this game because I had no idea that a Netflix account was required just to play. I cleared up space on my phone, deleting apps and my video’s that I can’t get back, all in preparation to try this game, only to find out that you can’t even start it without a Netflix account. I don’t have one, and now I feel like I wasted all that time and effort for nothing. The game itself looks amazing, and the graphics are top-notch, which is why it’s so disappointing that I can’t experience it. Because of this, I’m giving the game a one-star rating instead of the five stars it deserves based on its quality. I understand that developers need to make money, but forcing players to sign up for a Netflix account just to play feels like a major letdown. I just wanted to enjoy the game, but instead, I’m left upset and frustrated. Moral of the story: I’m very disappointed, and I can’t help but feel that this requirement was an unnecessary roadblock.
Like the title says—the dialogue, story, visuals, and voice acting are all genuinely good. But the lack of save points makes it almost not worth finishing unless you can play the whole thing in one go. The game is extremely quick to start you back from the beginning of levels. I closed my game to check something unrelated in Notes, and not 30 seconds later when I came back a fresh title screen cheerfully put me back at the last saved point. This wouldn’t be bad if the save points weren't so far apart. I’ve had to replay large segments multiple times because there’s no way to manually save and I don’t have the time to complete a particularly long segment. As much as I love the dialogue, I’d rather not listen to it over and over.
This game is amazing and I’m probably going to play it many more times but I’m having a little bit of problems like with climbing the rocks or mountain or whatever it’s like the character is stuck on it and it take me a while to get the character off. Another thing is sometimes when I’m just moving the character and I stop them for a second and I try to move them again the won’t move at all. One last thing is sometimes when a character is following Alex the character gets stuck and it’s just dialogue which is kind of annoying.
