THE ILLUSION Reviews

Total waste of money, I couldn't change any settings, you can not change key mapping ,

Motion blur, screen freeze, After 15 minutes asked for refund.

Refunded.....Game runs terrible...and my system is top of the line. Puzzles not working....pumpkin puzzle would not unlock until I exited the game and restarted the puzzle in this room. Very boring game....rooms are the same but puzzles are OK.

This is a very hard puzzle game. I have 13 hours in this one so far and I haven't play the other two yet. I don't really know if I recommend this game or not. But be warned that even when you have hints they are not good ones. In fact you might as well not even bother to read them or even call the phone help because it is pointless as they do not point you in any real direction (there are a few puzzle rooms where they actually makes sense and work to help solve the puzzle) most of the time you are on your own to stare at pictures, astrological signs, colors, and patterns to figure out how they all work together to solve the puzzle. The biggest advice I can offer, is from the very start of the game WRITE EVERYTHING DOWN THAT YOU DO! Every step of the way, every symbol matching to notes on the piano, to numbers on a clock. They can correlate to colors, sounds, pictures, etc. Just write it all down and draw pictures. This will help in the long run with later puzzle rooms.

I have enjoyed this game so far - and I love the station the radios play (I like classical music!) The puzzles are fun - I do wish I could save without hiking to that music box room but that doesn't bother me too much. I haven't finished, so some questions I have remain unanswered so far, but I suspect that will change as I progress. I will say that the thunder cracks made me jump a few times! Thanks for the game!

It's a good puzzle game with mostly diverse puzzles ( a few were a bit repetitive). One thing that really stood out to me was the art work in the paintings - it's very macabre and fits the game well, but I was also surprised that it doesn't repeat very much - most of the paintings in each room are unique - so it was fun just to walk around and look at the artwork.

This is puzzle game where you need to find key in every room to unlock new rooms etc. The puzzles are very challenging and so diverse. Still I did not finish it (maybe I am in 25% progress I estimate, 5 hrs play time up to now) but I can easily recommend it. The graphics is very beautiful with high attention to details. Highly recommended for puzzles lovers. Note: the game engine conflicted with Nahimic software installed in my PC (from ASUS), if you encounter this problem you need to stop the Nahimic service from computer management.
