Down in Bermuda (逃出百慕大‪)‬ 9+

Five out of five ducks!

I first discovered Down in Bermuda while it was on Apple Arcade and have been on the hunt for it for a while since. After weeks of searching (because I couldn’t remember the name, only the game!), I finally found it a few days ago and have already played through it twice. The story is sweet, and the little characters you meet along the way are charming. The puzzles strike the perfect balance between interesting and challenging, and I had a blast hunting for all the relics, photos, maps, stars, and keys. My only wish? That it was longer! It’s rare to find a puzzle game that’s entertaining, challenging, visually appealing, and has a story—Down in Bermuda reminds me of Monument Valley, the game that sparked my love for puzzle games. If there’s one thing I’d suggest for future games, it would be to improve the controls. Panning and turning can be a bit tricky, and it would be nice to zoom out more to get a full view of the levels. Overall, though, this game is a gem. Highly recommend!

Just started playing but it’s obvious that this game is a gem! Truly interesting and fun puzzle game. My one complaint is that the camera rotation speed needs to be increased, it feels quite slow which makes rotating and zooming the camera feel clunky and a bit frustrating…perhaps if you could add a setting to adjust the camera sensitivity?

Normally I would decrease stars on a review to get a developers attention, but i don’t feel right doing that with this app since it’s obviously so well done. Great job devs

This game is so beautifully designed and is so immersive and intuitive. The puzzles are fun, challenging, and rewarding. The characters are also very cute! I find myself wanting to spend time on the islands and scrolling around just to admire all the different intricate elements that went into designing the game. Yak & Co never disappoints!
