This game is life changing!! 🩵
Thu Aug 20 2026 melon_jesI absolutely love this game!! The first time I played it was my sophomore year of high school, but I had known about it years before and obsessed about it until I finally got a laptop of my own and bought the full game on Steam. I would definitely recommend if you can playing it on Steam. It’s the original experience and just a better gameplay overall. But I am very happy that it’s on mobile now because it makes it easier to play on the go when I’m in the mood for some Sally Face, and I don’t have my laptop with me. It’s very exciting! This game is absolutely fantastic, it’s incredibly detailed. I’ve played each episode several times and still haven’t got to 100% on all of them. There’s so much to this game. I learn new lore about the story every time I play, and the story is shocking it will throw you for loops. It’s addictive and makes you think and theorize and the characters are so easy to get attached to, everything about the game is so well thought out and made. I’m very excited to see where Sally Face 2 takes us!! And I’m so happy that Portable Moose is getting the recognition they deserve, and I’m so happy to see this game taking off more than it already was. Keep up the great work! There’s a huge fandom backing you guys up the whole way! 🫶
Happy 10 years of Sally Face
Fri Aug 21 2026 Mimi-9161I’m so happy this game came out on mobile. I’ve been a huge fan ever since it first came out. I screamed when I heard it would come out on mobile and that we’d finally get a Sally Face 2! Happy 19 years Sally Face!! I do have one single problem with the syncing for the achievement on Apple; I gotten a lot of achievements in game but only 3 have shown up in my Apple game and during that one part where you play as Larry he bugged out and wouldn’t stop talking so his walking animation was bugged when we had to find Ash. Overall it’s still a good game and small bugs aren’t too much of an issue as I was still able to complete the game just fine even with 2 things being bugged.
Bugs

No bugs on iPhone
Wed Sep 09 2026 Birdy24evaGreat game! Plays wonderful, no issues at all on iPhone 17. Very unique story, decent game play time, worth the cost. It’s kind of more of a story then the classic point in click games, you can’t try random items on random things, you either have them to use or not. but does have puzzles. But sometimes he just wanna relax and play a good game with a great story! And this is one of them. Thanks developers, hope to see more soon.
Absolute Cinema.
Wed Aug 19 2026 🎸Sal🎸I’ve been a fan of this game ever since it came out!! If you guys are having sound issues, you might need to turn off silent mode. When I first started playing this game on mobile, I had to turn silent mode off because of the sound but that doesn’t really bother me. I’m so happy that Sally Face 2 is coming out soon too!! 🥰🥰
Great but one issue
Wed Aug 19 2026 Toot27954I absolutely love sally face so i was excited to play, i have no problems with the game besides one thing. sometimes when i try to talk or open the door, it will NOT work, i have to click over and over for it to work and it makes me annoyed. Besides that one problem, i love this game.
Sound issue
Thu Aug 20 2026 G getting slices fgdgdgffgLove the game, one of my favorite games of all time it’s just I can’t here anything, I’ve went to settings, I’ve uninstalled it, nothing really works, only works with headphones which is fine but can’t hear it without headphones,really hope it gets fixed, really good game though!!
Amazing horror point and click
Wed Sep 02 2026 JGordon1337Played this for the first time last year, shot up to one pf my favorite games ever. If you are a fan of the John Dies at the End books, you will love this game. Puzzles aren’t overly challenging, but they do make you put in effort to solve them, story is full of fascinating twists. Can’t wait for the sequel!
