SILK - A Leo Parker Adventure 9+

I really liked the blend of story and puzzle. As someone else mentioned, there are a few glitches. I also could not complete the test tube puzzle. I didn’t even know about the easy mode until it was mentioned and I was able to finally pick up the test tube. One other glitch occurred with the tetris puzzle. I got to the final piece but it was missing! I took a picture and reloaded the game. All that aside, I’m off to play the first one. Thanks!

Having played almost every escape game in the App Store, I struggle to find new, challenging games. I stumbled on to this one and it just kept giving. It was tricky, long, and illustrated nicely. I played this without hints or a walkthrough over the course of about 2 weeks (maybe an hour or two per day). The puzzles were challenging, but the logic was solid and always made sense. I don’t love stuff with too much story - this one definitely had that, but that would be my only complaint if i had one. For folks who have played Rusty Lake or Glitch Games’ titles, this is along the lines of those in quality and difficulty. (Although, maybe a bit harder than Rusty Lake). If you’re looking for a game to keep you occupied for a bit, I highly recommend.

The effort to make this game is good. The story is intriguing and even when it was pay to play, playing for $1.99 was a good deal. However, a lot of work is needed to improve the interface. Many times I had to take the hint despite clicking on right locations because the game just did not register the clicks. The sand test tube puzzle needs to be checked. Even when I solved it, it did not finish. I had to use an easier version of the puzzle to actually finish. Some programming issue. There is a typo in General Zang chapter. It would be even better if there was another chapter and a couple of puzzles to escape the palace at the end, especially in the secret passage. Also, when some object interaction is finished, it would be better if that object does not get interacted with anymore. That will save a lot of confusion. I liked the easy version mode in case someone needs to skip a puzzle. Overall good game.
