fun time. would have liked to have interactive characters at each stopping point to help feel more like you were actually in a game

very fun, some puzzles could have been more challenging. or maybe there could be several levels of difficulty (easy, hard, etc)

some of the challenges were hard to make out on my phone (like the matching game). Also there’s an error in the word scramble on chapter 12 - courage has 7 letters, but only 6 spaces are displayed. But overall fun. I would play with a friend next time.

Really enjoyed it. some other quest apps let you go back to a previous screen and had audio for the stories, and you can change the direction of the map to the way you were walking. otherwise overall good experience
