“I found this to be a wonderful and entertaining game. It is not anything at all like the adventure game, but I think that that is a good thing. This game is a whole new experience; it is not, nor is it supposed to be, similar to the Secret of Shadow Ranch Adventure game.  Overall, it exceeded all expectations that I'd had about it. The story takes some time to get into, but after the first chapter, I was hooked! The only complaints that I have are that the hidden object scenes could be a bit frustrating (a hint system would have fixed this) and that I found a spelling/grammatical errors. These did not detract from my enjoyment of the game, but I found it worth mentioning. I give the game as a whole a 9/10.” – Chocolate Girl

“We see characters we love from the games and hear their voices but at the same time there are line drawings from the original books. There are many mini games and things to try. It was fun but a whole different experience than the adventure games.”  – Veja

“Alright so this was definitely not what I was expecting, but I like that. HER always surprises me with what they're coming out with. I have an Ipod and I recently bought the game. I got so addicted to it that I played it nonstop that day haha. But I really thought this game was good.” – Mysteryhelp279

“I just finished HER's first mobile mystery, and I must say it was great! I loved the easy interaction, the well thought out storyline and the fun mini-games.” – Rose14

“I have just finished the game and believe me, it was worth the wait! Yet again, HeR has pulled off a terrific game. I understand the idea of a text based game play is not a selling point for some (like me), but it is so wonderfully executed that people who dislike the game play style will adore the game just like I did. The game has a very high replay value unlike most apps. This really defines it from the millions of other apps available. The graphics are beautiful and the mini games are fun. Over all, a success from our friends at HeR. I give it a 9/10.” – Headfuzz
