The Library is the first part of Forgotten Hill Disillusion. You play it for free and decide whether to unlock the rest of Disillusion. I paid the $4.99 for the unlock and it was well worth it. Ads were removed and hints were available for that price. (Note that this is not true of all FH games. I recently downloaded FH Fall, paid $1.99 to get rid of ads, then then discovered that I was still getting long ads when accessing hints. The developer wanted an additional $5.99 to remove the ads from hints! No sale there, and that game was very short to boot.)Game play here was very long. Some puzzles were obscure, but not impossible. You have to be observant. I liked the fact that, after giving you two hints to help you, the third hint completed the puzzle giving you a skip option. This was very helpful for the kind of puzzles where you are spinning rings, etc. Those drive me crazy and after I’ve been at it a while, I’m happy to throw in the towel. The camera was useful. The storyline was good. All in all, though it’s no House of DaVinci, and not quite as good as Rusty Lake Cube series, this was one of the better games I’ve played in a while.

Great puzzle games, definitely on the challenging ends (FYI, much tougher than Rusty Lake, more difficult than EscapeCube), but I can attest all puzzles are reasonable! I doesn’t just test your brain but also your courage to explore the space. 5$ is a very good bargain IMO. Highly recommend. For some data points: I believe my play time is > 20 hours. I got stuck and consulted walkthrough once through the entire game play (watching walkthrough because I didn’t see the question mark icon at that point!)It would be great to have a better hint system support - it works once when I hit the question mark (kinda accidentally) when I was in Flora’s Room, but the icon has no effect towards the end of the game.Potential bug: “At the last chapter”, the manager says I can grab 3 items, but I could never take more than 2 items.

It was great. Really loved the introduction of the camera to give new perspectives on clues. Thought I had reached my limit and ran out of places to look before finally getting the camera and moving along nicely. Some of these puzzles are tricky as far as knowing what to do but I was able to figure it all out and finish the first (free) part within a few hours. Lots and lots of fun. Not gonna pay the $4.99 for the rest only because I don’t spend money on mobile games. I’ll probably go and download other games from this series/developer.

I *NEVER* rate anything 5 stars, but this game earned it. I had doubts about unlocking the full version, but the depth was amazing, and the length was just right -not too long, not too short; it didn’t drag, and it didn’t leave me feeling empty. I got a better gameplay experience from this than I have on a lot of higher-cost games. I’m really finding myself reluctant to give any specific examples or anecdotes to back my review, but it’s because I don’t want to throw any spoilers out there. Like I said, though, this one is 100% worth getting the full/paid version.
