Gorgeous but too short & too simple

Judged on aesthetics and atmosphere alone, this is would be a five star game, but its over AWFULLY quickly -- youll blow through it in under an hour -- and yet even in that short span, the puzzles ultimately become repetitive and more tedious than challenging or satisfying to solve. Its so stylish you play through to the end anyway, but style can only take you so far. A beautiful concept that deserved more thought put into the execution.

This game is bomb

Loved this game. Super fun if you enjoy playing things that make you think.

Great concept

Really enjoy this puzzle game. Takes a good concept and explores ways to ale you think on your toes.

Sheer genius!

Beautiful art, Intense noir environment, wonderful music, creative but not too hard game play... Sheer genius!

Best puzzle game ever!!!

This game is great! I like the plot, and its probably one of the best puzzle games ever. (spoiler alert) Some of it is hard . I like the concept that you can change the outcome of the story because it makes the game different than any other game that I have played before. Its definitely mind challenging.

Not fun, not challenging

Interesting concept and beautifully rendered, but a total miss on a fundamental game requirement: fun. Its just plain boring.

Really enjoyed it but too short

Not complaining about the money but I got through this in a few hours and found myself wanting more. I was even prepared to do some in app purchases but found none. In any case, very enjoyable. Loved the noire theme music and design. Very thoughtfully constructed levels

Great game!

Its a really nice game and concept although Id love if it was longer, or release a new one!

This is an awesome game with some great puzzles to figure out. I thoroughly enjoyed the game. My only complaint is it wasnt long enough!!! Hopefully LoveShack will great a sequel

Not worth it

This game is not worth $4 and I personally dont think it is challenging enough to make it fun considering in some levels you just have to switch 2 panels.

Too good, too short!

This game is so many things (addicting, beautiful, well made) that I find it difficult to summarize its best features. The only detractor is that if you play it often (aka nonstop, which is definitely likely) you will likely solve the game in under a week. I would have loved additional chapters or stories, even if they were only available through in app purchases. Im very much looking forward to the developers next release.

Had it been free, I still wouldve felt ripped off.

Fun to play, but ended confusingly and suddenly. In fact, I thought I had lost and it started me over. I replayed it, trying to find other options to choose to see if I could win. I "lost" 3 times before I got so mad, I deleted it. This was when it first came out. Now, seeing it as a very popular, well-rated app, I had to say something. Theres not many games I hate as much as this one. So much time in my life I will never get back.

$4.00 worth of meh

The game is very short and the "novel" game mechanics are essentially the same thing every "pick the correctly shaped pipe" game has been doing since the days of NES. Not the worst game out there, but there are numerous better choices for your money.

Excellent concept, but too short & missed opportunities.

The gameplay mechanic is superb! However, I have several issues which cost a star: - Given the title "framed" and the comic-book feel, there should be an actual story. We never learn who the characters are or why theyre running. - Entirely too short. For the hefty price tag, more levels should be added (perhaps over time?) - Too many of the levels fit into the maze mechanic. My favorite parts were when you needed to choreograph a fight scene. Hope you can spend some of the money you make on this great game to deliver more storyline driven levels.

Bro, ya gotta add more levels!

Fantastic game. Too short, but totally worth it.

This Game Is EVERYTHING!

Everything about this game was so cool...from the jazzy music to the silhouette characters. It was just plain fun. It challenged me the whole way. MORE MORE!

Excellent game, but way too short.

The game is excellent looking: the noir visuals, crisp animation, soundtrack, and graphic novel puzzles all make a unique playing experience. However, the experience only lasts 20-30 minutes. There are maybe 3 pages that youll have to replay, as the game is pretty easy. Fun game, but too short and no replayability.

Short, but well done

I plan on keeping this app, just in case they continue on the story. It is an excellent and fun puzzle solving game. The addition of it being a spy caper adds to its appeal.

Clever and unique

Really interesting and unique take on the film noire hard-boiled detective genre. Very enjoyable but a little short. Nice job!

limited choices

Many choices were 2 possibilities where the first one failed. So, you choose the only choice and move on. More like guided story-telling. Also, the cards show scenes that dont act in expected ways or have consistent visual clues. Many times it is just try and see if it will work and then try again until you solve the page, which is fine if that is the type of puzzle you like to solve. So, low score for the limited options and high price. Visually stunning in its format.
