Challenging!

Moments I just want to throw my device to the wall. Very fun though.

Best

PLEASE add support for iPhone 5 and Retina, for strange reason iPhone 5 shows bad resolution, iPhone 4 has retina graphics. Why? Please fix! All in all I think it is the best puzzle game ever. I want to add ability to group puzzles by difficulty or type. Yeah, and cheaper hints! =)

Awesome Game

Ill give 5 stars when Level 4 (Tangram #2) works. I completed the puzzle in 2 different ways and it wont recognize it. Fix the issue!

The curse is you wont beat it

You wont beat it without cheating or help at least. Absolutely beautiful graphics, entertaining cutscenes, and a ton of puzzles that will keep you busy. I finished all of the shape puzzles, and all of a few other categories. There are some that are way too hard - either because of the ridiculous time/move limit, or just plain ridiculously hard. Those final puzzles left me irritated and bored of the game (not the objective of a game). Im a pretty intelligent person, and I think they left these super hard puzzles so you either pay for the hints or give up and be "cursed."

Fun

I only have level 54 and didnt cheat started this game from december and im slowly finishing it only level i cant get is LEVEL 54! I hate it! Dx but fun game :)

Lame

Not a very good puzzle game.

OMG!!!! <3

I loved this game, and I wish there were more like it! It took me a good two or three months to complete but I FINALLY did it! Its a good brain teaser and tester, but I absolutely hated all the sliding block puzzles XD

More!

I got this game for free, and found it so satisfying that I looked for a sequel so I can throw money at the developers. I havent solved it all yet...stupid block games! But I keep hammering at it. Suggestion to the makers: in the 1980s, a fellow named Kit Williams made two brilliant books of puzzles: Masquerade, and the bee one whose title is part of the puzzle so I wont spoil it. I dont know if Williams is alive, but the puzzles were amazingly hidden. Ill bet the same people who love The Curse would be all over something similar.

Psychic

After level 20, when he says he can read your mind, he shows you cards and tells you to pick one, then shows you the cards again and says he has removed you card, I picked Q of hearts and sure enough it was gone, I believe all the cards were J Q K and A so does anyone know if that actually worked, or he just changed all the cards so that none of the cards that were there before are there the second time he shows you, you know like changed the suits, because I dont think people pay attention to more than the card they picked, so as long as the cards seem for the most part the same (still J Q K and A) people only notice that their card is not there, and dont notice that all the cards have changed... This is just my guess, I mean its an app how can it read you mind?... Im almost thinking about reinstalling the app so that I can write down all the cards he shows the first time, but he only shows them for a couple seconds, only long enough for you to memorize a single card. Anyone else wanna share what happened with this? :) Anyway! Really awesome app (I realized that through all of that I never really gave it a review. Lol)

Happy I purchased

This is a great mind teaser. I like how its challenging. (:

Includes some unfair puzzles that cost you extra money

I was EXTREMELY impressed with this app when I first started playing it. Was thinking it was going to be a five-star app. The programmer did an amazing job. The graphics are excellent and the Mannequin character adds a lot of, well, "character". Plus, the puzzles have been well designed and there are no glitches so far. There is a neat storyline to it and a final puzzle which will apparently be extremely challenging and which can only be solved by using all twenty objects that you earn by solving the other puzzles. Solving ALL of the puzzles is the only way to "win the game", so to speak. The problem is that the game developer included one type of "puzzle" that is not truly a puzzle. It is a riddle. Riddles are very different from puzzles in that their solution set can be nearly infinite. In this game, you have to solve the riddle, which is a five letter word—ANY five letter word in the English language. "Puzzles" can eventually be figured out by exhausting a LIMITED number of options. They have a FINITE solution set. If this doesnt work and that doesnt work then, eventually, you will be able to solve the puzzle through the process of elimination. Not so with riddles. Riddles are meant to be pondered over, and the ponderer may never happen upon the thought that leads them to the solution. Most people I know who love puzzles hate riddles. In this app, the objective is not merely to solve individual puzzles, but to solve ALL the puzzles or lose the game. And this seller is counting on you not being able to solve them all; he is, in fact, charging you extra money for "hints" from the App Store, which is almost a requirement to finishing the game given that it is "riddled with riddles". To the seller: take out the riddles so that everybody has a reasonable chance at winning the game, or dont charge extra for hints. Better yet, do both of those things, and provided there arent any other bulls in the cow pasture, Ill happily give you a five star rating. Kudos on the quality otherwise

Amazing

This game was so freaking fun kept me up several nights. I loved it, please make The Curse 2

Big BKs Finest

Why no iPhone 5 support?

Amazing

I was blown away after u got this app, my only problem is that there isnt already a sequel out!

Selling Hints

Nice graphics and sound, and some interesting takes on standard puzzles. However, I deleted it as soon as I realized that any time you get stuck youre expected to buy hints through in app purchase. No thanks. Id rather pay for a full experience than nickel and dime my way through.

Addictive

Very addictive game with awesome art.

Love this game!

Perfect challenging dynamic puzzle game! The puzzles are all "bite sized" as in quick to play and try to beat when you have a free minute or two.

Not worth the money

Deliberately vague instructions on how to solve puzzles, designed to frustrate players into buying hints.

Fun!!!!

Its a good game and its got some really challenging levels. You should really get the app!!!

Challenging game....

This game is great that challenged me to solve lots of arduous puzzles....
