Excellent game!

I played this game years and years ago and, despite it being relatively short, its charm and atmosphere stuck with me until today when it struck me that I didn’t remember the name of the app.
A Google Search later and I’m delighted to learn that the game is just as wonderful as I remember and that there are two more to play next!

Good start to a great trilogy

Fantastic start to one of the best adventure games for iOS. Taken on its own it’s on the short side, which is made up for with bigger Ep. 2 and 3.

Dear Skygoblin: Chapter three, please!!

My brother-in-law's brother worked as a tester on this game and I'm glad he did because I might not have found out about it otherwise; I don't really spend any time looking through the App Store to find new games to play.
Hands down, I love this game, but I hated when it ended only because it meant I had to wait for the next chapter and I just wanted more right away! After I finished chapter two I didn't play again for a while and removed it from my iPad to free up space, then re-downloaded it half a year later and played straight through again... and it was just as fun as the first time. When a game can surprise me and make me laugh out loud (for real) then it's worth my time. The characters are quirky and entertaining, the graphics/design is aesthetically awesome, and the storyline is unique and compelling.
When is chapter three coming?! I want to see the Underland!! Take me to the Underland!! :-)

Good, a bit pricey

I beat this first chapter in just over 2 hours (for $6). Next chapter is $11. Wasn't good enough/way too short to keep dropping that much for a non-replayable game. Ppl like to compare it to Grim Fandango...that game took over a week to beat. Grim was worth the money

Parents be aware

I'm always looking for games that I can play along with my boys, and this seemed like a slam dunk. We were enjoying the series until the second instalment, when it featured a pornographic movie as a key element in the plot line. Perhaps they thought it was funny, but for me it was unnecessary and lascivious and resulted in me deleting the app.

Best adventure game in 20 years!

I've played adventure games since the early days of Lucasarts. You guys brought be back to the fun and the atmosphere of great games like Grim Fadango or Zac Mckracken. I'll recommend it to all my adventure game friends. It's one of the bast game I played over the last 20 years!

Great work!

This is by far one of the best iOS games I've played. It's super polished, very stable, and the soundtrack is amazing. I love the jazzy sounds and the echoing seagulls. The game if funny and challenging. About to buy chapter 2! Thanks for the awesome work, guys!

Great game!!!

Not sure why others are complaining about music and dialogue? This game has a real story and character development! Just finished the second chapter. The game is worth every penny! :)

95% conversation dialogue and only 5% game play

How is this a game?
You have to proceed through three minutes of unnecessary conversation (EACH AND EVERY TIME THERE IS SOMETHING TO BE CLICKED ON). Just clicking on an item is NOT game play - where it the challenge, the game play itself?
Also, you have to wait for characters to slowly walk to items you click on and then slowly come back again. Terrible game (and I use the term 'game' losely).
Glad I only wasted a couple of dollars on this and not the overpriced amount you are charging for part 2. Seriously, get rid of all the unnecessary and annoying character dialogue and insert some ACTUAL challenging game play. Time for me to uninstall this 'movie with clickable areas' and play a real GAME.

PLEASE turn off the music & sound

No matter how good a game is or how great the graphics and story are it is all ruined by not being able to turn off the sound and/or music!
Why do some authors assume everybody likes their choice of music or can always play their game when alone??
Good thing I did not pay to learn this inconsideration.

Wicked fun man!

Hehe
This reminds me of a real 90's adventure game done with a modern twist.
It has a lot of wow factor especially for an iPhone game!!!
So many adventure games are nothing more than a hidden objects game with a thin story line... Not this one! True fun !

Great game!

I was happily surprised after buying this game, that it was so good! With no reviews to go on, I was expecting yet another iOS point and click game disappointment. But, this is great! Controls work well, tons of places to travel, items to gather. Similar feel to monkey island, although not as epic, it is very, very well made. Looks nice, was well made, entertaining storyline. Worth playing!

Wonderful game reminiscent of the Monkey Island series

I've had this game for a while and hadn't yet played it. I'm an idiot. This game is wonderful! The puzzles for the most part make sense, the characters are wonderful, the design is gorgeous, and the music is awesome. Thanks for a great game!
Looking forward to the sequel.

Good game but...

Lack definitively of puzzles. Characters may be a little annoying sometimes. Could have been longer and more "film noir". But the music is cool, nice backgrounds, funny enough. For 2$? Worth it indeed!

Excellent!

Loved it! from the animation to the background music. The storyline is really good, the game itself is challenging enough to make you think about what you ough to do next and not too difficult to require you to go looking for a walkthrough. Amazing job, i could only wish i was part of the DEV team! Kudos to the QA too, not a single bug!

Amazing & Favorite iOS Game!

There's so much detail, effort, and beauty in this game, I love how it's historical accuracy fits with the traditional Central African culture.
It's absolutely hilarious, and the puzzles are clever & fun unlike some puzzles in other games that can feel like a chore.
I can't complain besides... I want more! & I wish I could work with the people who made this game, you're all incredible! <3 Thank you for making such an amazing game, I hope I get a job where I can do stuff like this.

No desire to continue

Characters not interesting; dialogue not funny; puzzles not challenging; plot not gripping. Decent graphics, solid voice acting, ok music. I usually like point-and-click, but this one just couldn't make me keep playing.
