Second chapter issues

I loved the first chapter (hence 5 stars) and was super excited when I saw that there has been another added! However, I just started the second chapter, and every time I go into the ’invisible’ (?) space the screen crashes and takes me back to the main menu. When I press play again, I’m back in the café and have to start the scene again with the same results. Is this part of the game? Am I missing something?? If not there are some serious bugs that need ironed out with this new update.UPDATE: Thanks for the response! I have updated the game to the latest version, and am in the cafe, but when I try to book a Ryde to the hospital it says no routes can be found and to try again later??

Good puzzler, but slow updates

I love a good puzzle game, and Circulous didn’t disappoint. The unusual interface options make the game all the more interesting, even if at times they feel less responsive than you’d like. The story is linear, and unfortunately, it is over all too quickly. I played the first episode over a day, and the second in just about the same time. Now I’m trying to be patient and wait for the next part of the story, but the lack of updates on the website is frustrating—let us know that the next section is in development or on the way, especially if you are going to promise regular updates. Glad to support the developer, and would recommend at this price...but be patient!

Bugs

This is a great game and obviously took a lot of effort to create so I’ll still give it 3 stars. But the content released a couple months ago had a lot of bugs. I was able to play into the library (though I think that was a glitch too). But once I was in there, none of the features worked right (WiFi password wouldn’t work, then all of a sudden the webview just started up on its own; books kept reproducing; no combo of books worked even though I had the right ones). And now that it seems those bugs are fixed and I should be able to play on, my inventory is locked up so I can’t place the books at all. All the bugs take the fun out of the game play.

Unparalleled!

I come from the developer’s other game The Company, and all I can say is both of these are criminally underrated. I’ve never played anything like them and it’s so fun being able to jump into this world the developer has created. It’s all so interconnected and these are some of the few games that actually make me think! It isn’t too easy to be boring, but it also isn’t too difficult to make you unmotivated. Great storyline and keeps you at the edge of your seat! Can’t wait for the next update.10/10 recommend this game, and check out The Company while you’re at it!

I love the mixture of challenging and exceptionally challenging

Great game with a good backstory and challenging puzzles (some extremely challenging and obscure). I love that the developer provided a series of hints that did not simply provide the answer. And, that they were a series of escalating hints, first prompting you to look for certain clues and increasing in more hints along the way. Some that just jogged my memory for something I had seen before without having to get another hint. I like the mechanics of the Hance in that I could slide over to erase just the first few words and not reveal the whole hint. Sometimes that was plenty. I was surprised that the game suddenly stopped with a part two coming soon, but probably for the better so that I could get onto being more productive with my day. Ha ha. This game is addicting! I realized hours have gone by and I was still glued to my iPad. Can’t wait for part two!

Boo!!

I don’t know how this game got high stars but that’s the LAST time I spend money on ANY game! It’s starts out ok. Takes some thinking but you can do it...then a hint or two. Then it just becomes ridiculous! Do you know what a nomolid is? I don’t but this game wants you to look it up (cause the link is broken) learn how to do it, then reverse apply it to another puzzle....excuse you? I kept going using ALL the hints but now I’m at the point of...I have literally no earthy idea what to do....no game should be this difficult. I thought maybe I need to work my brain more. NO! This is pure nonsense! Click on a box and lock something to rotate something so a piece can come out then another piece can slide🤦🏾‍♀️ HEADACHE! FRUSTRATING!! I wish I could get my $5 back!!😡

This Game is Soooooooo Addicting!!!

Okay, this game is really fun and SUPER ADDICTING. Like, if you get this game, you won’t be able to put it down until you’re done, honestly. I’ve never wrote a review on a game before, but I’ve gotta say, this is probably the best app game I’ve ever played! The gameplay is so captivating and fun, and I was interested the whole time. With some of the puzzles, I had to use the hints, but even then, I still enjoyed solving them! Thanks for making this game, and I’m excited for the update!!!!

Awesome Game!

I really love mystery and logic games like this! It is so fun to play, and it really makes you think sometimes! In the beginning of the game, when I was stuck, I always took a hint, but once you got in the shed the hints were over. I’m not sure if that was intentional, but I’m glad it happened because although I was stuck on some puzzles for a long time, I eventually was able to solve them and it felt far more satisfying than asking for a solution! Awesome game! And to be honest, the puzzles are not impossible like a lot of people seem to think. Sometimes it is helpful to take a break to have a fresh idea when you try again.

I loved this game! Only got to play the first act tho :(

I played this earlier today in one sitting, I was enjoying it so much! I loved the puzzles and everything. It was fun watching the mystery slowly get solved. One thing that happened tho was that right at the part where J calls a ride for Amanda, it closed out. I considered thats where it ended but I tried to open it up again to play part two but it closed automatically again. So I started doing everything I could and nothing worked. I tried restarting my ipad, deleting it then re-downloading, and playing on a different device. Not sure what I did wrong or if it’s my save maybe. But still a wonderful game and such a good experience. It gave me sally face vibes and that is one of my favorite games!

A bit buggy but enjoyable

Good game to twist my brain with. So far the puzzles are more about observation of things that were shown earlier and crafty ways to use/look at them. Really like the different mechanics, they are surprising and fresh. Smalls things, like the screen stuck on one orientation even though it’s rotated, or the keyboard doesn’t go away after typing so it blocks the next puzzle, or some other minor inconsistent behavior within a puzzle, could get a bit annoying after a couple of force closes. Oh and the hints pages for the spokes puzzle is wrong, that should be a quick fix.

Description

Pay once, play forever! All future chapter updates included! Circulous is an episodic mystery narrative puzzle game.

In this first-person game you take on the persona of Amanda Trouser. You have just been let go from your job. After packing your things, you wonder what you are going to do with the rest of your life. How will you afford your apartment? On the subway ride home you see an add for a job opening at Circulous…it’s almost as if the ad was put there just for you! You apply, and you end up hired! That is only the beginning of the story. Your work at Circulous is exciting, but soon you realize there may be more to this company than you’ve ever imagined. Corporate espionage, conspiracy theories and moral dilemmas lead you through challenging puzzles that will test your wits, your allegiances, and what you think you know about…everything. Engagement This puzzle game pulls you in and makes it as immersive as possible. Scenes use parallax movement to make it feel like you are in Amanda’s world. The opening scene (in which you are fired) uses story and humor to quickly place you in Amanda’s shoes. Each scene is an animated environment that invites you to explore and notice things that may or may not be important to the story or puzzles. The use of your phone (or iPad) is an intuitive way to keep you in the game but also make it feel as if you are truly using your device alongside the game and not just a gimmick. The OS feels like a true OS and makes the immersive nature of the game much more enjoyable.
