Bertram Fiddle: Episode 1: A Dreadly Business App Reviews

Great but a little short

Am I the only one that is having issues with this game? On the screen to start scene 3, the game crashed then sent me back to where I was when I started that day. Now its just freezing up & not letting me "touch" anything. I will try to re download & see what happens.

This game was fun to play but I finished it in less that 2 hours. When does the next episode come out?

I looked the artwork, story and humor. The puzzles were good too. This is the rare adventure game that keeps me playing to the finish. Others complained this episode is too short, but I think the length was fine. I hope episode 2 gets produced.

Three things, however, game play time is very brief even for the $ .99 that it cost me (as other reviewers here and online say; only about two hours), the several "endless runner" style mini games need a skip button, and the dialog trees are too stunted for a game that relies strongly on "witty" chatter for its player appeal. I feel pretty skeptical about whether to purchase subsequent episodes unless they are substantially beefed up in both quantity and quality of content.

Crashed at the end of the first scene -- every time. I even deleted and re-downloaded it, to no avail. (This was on my iPhone. Maybe it works on iPad?)

Very well drawn and interesting story. Puzzles are simple and its extremely short. But worth the price.

I adore adventure games & this was definitely an adventure! I love all the cute little animations which keep you very entertained. Looking & searching for objects & putting pieces together was so thrilling!

Great game, reminiscent of the great LucasArts and Sierra games of the 90s. The puzzles were a little easy, but I enjoyed how quickly the story advanced. And this game is not too short for the money. Actually its a bargain... $.99! Anybody who says otherwise has no idea what goes into making a game like this. The story was cohesive, the dialogue was interesting and original, the artwork was unique and inspiring, and the sound design was on-point. People pay more for a soda they drink in 5 minutes than this amazingly designed and produced game by an indie studio that probably spent many a late night poring over this thing. Brilliant! Well done. I cant wait for the next episode.

I really like this game a lot and am very much looking forward to the next chapter.

Sorry. :(
