Good game base. Graphics are old and doesn't run sooth. Audio is terrible. I am stck in a glitch and will probably have to restart the game because my character can't move.

The game is as captivating as the PC version was years ago, but I would have liked it better if some of the controls had been modified to accommodate mobile devices and small screens. Edit: I've noticed the game doesn't display correctly when switching between apps. In one instance, it even froze and did not respond at all.

Please fix Chapter 3. There is a glitch that causes the game to freeze, making the game unplayable. I REALLY love this game. When you go to enter the house on the right it freezes. Also, if you touch the panel on the wall of the house it freezes. I have to close the game out. Doesn't fix anything.
