As an indie junkie, its definitely in my top 3! I have played GRIS, NEVA, FAR lone sails, Hollow knight, silksong, monumental valley, before your eyes, and what not... this one is really special. i took my time to go through each puzzle, each one unique and creative... this game might sometime feel like a children game, sometime you will feel like you need a PHD in physics to solve a puzzle. Have faith, keep playing, the journey will definitely be worth it!

Finally an adventurous game with stages that involve clues and ways to figure out how to get to the next scene without any satanic symbolism thank you
- Enedelia Valadez · v1.3.28
Beautiful little game. Very original! Give Little Big Planet vibes.
- Nithanhyle Dharneiv · v1.3.28
The first puzzle-adventure where you get the complete clue book on the first screen! Then you can choose between solving things on your own and peeking into the book 🙂 The only downside of the game is that on the mobile phone some things are too small, some too dark. Pinch zoom over rooms and pictures with texts would be helpful. And as my last point, I greatly appreciate that 900 pages long book 😁 🟢 Tip for players: Pan the book view ⬅️left/right➡️ to navigate fast through its pages.

it's beautiful. impressive craftsmanship
- Marie-Eve · v1.3.28
beautiful game, like a mini escape room and definitely would have been better if I played it on desktop vs mobile. a chance to appreciate the details of the set, clearly painstakingly crafted by the creators. loved the storyline as well.
- Stacy Huang · v1.3.28
very nice puzzles and fantastic art
- Maria Focsa · v1.3.28
fun storyline and easy to play.
- Lela R.
Nice game with artistic and unique world style. The puzzles arent that hard to solve and I love that we also have the manual book. Not only helpful, but also informative because it tells how the city mechanisms work!
- Era Zikri · v1.3.28
cute
- Kristin Morgan · v1.3.28

I'm speechless. This is gorgeous and crazy creative. I love it!
- Juno Richard · v1.3.28
a new way of presentation. a new gaming experience. i wish the objects were a little bigger on the screen.
- OBLODY · v1.3.28
Incredible art style and good puzzle. Loved it
- Subhrajit Biswas · v1.3.28

- kunal johari · v1.3.28
Lovely game, relatively straight forward puzzles.
- tim speight · v1.3.28
love it so far!
- Porsche Shelden · v1.3.28
Beautiful. I found this game charming and delightful. It is beautifully designed. The main character, Lumi, is resourceful, clever, funny and kind. The puzzles vary, from easy to tricksy. You get a handy manual at the start, which you can refer to for help but it is annoying to page through (it has 100s of pages and I did not find a way to click on the page ref in the index) so if I was truly stumped, I just looked at a walkthrough. If you don't need help there are no downsides to the game.
- Clea Davis · v1.3.28
cute, fun, casual puzzle game but it's a little tedious to always need to be flipping through and referring to the handbook. and unfortunately there is a bug on the cyclist patch puzzle so I can't play the entire second half. playing on galaxy tab s10+
- Ellie · v1.3.28
looked decent but it doesn't load correctly on Motorola Fold, so isn't playable in first act and is slow.
- Bartley Brown · v1.3.28
very good I had so much fun
- Joshua Banks · v1.3.28
Nice and sweet game. Complexity is from easy to moderate, nothing crazy difficult. The graphics is really nice
- S. · v1.3.28
amazing game so far
- Saleh Sayem · v1.3.28
a Uni a un puzzle like game that at first I was unsure of but after about 3 little levels Im starting to get better. still unsure how to use the book Ive found, & I dislike having to back out of every page rather than resetting from page 1 whenever I close & reopen the book but maybe theres a reason for it.
- Krista Collins · v1.3.28
great game
- Bernadette Martin · v1.3.28
dreamy original and relaxing
- Deive Paiva · v1.3.28
the game is focused. Architectural strategies and Method, controls are good and pointing somewhere that doesn't click is not bad Ig
- Raunlphs Ferdinand · v1.3.28
fun!
- Ariel Worden
Cute and simple, but the controls are bad and finicky.
- Hampus Le Mon · v1.3.28
this is one of the best, if not The best, puzzle adventure games I've ever played!!!! i love how we're given a manual book right from the start when u have difficulties solving puzzles so it really feels immersive and not just begging for a hint like a victorian child. not gonna lie but i had to search a few clues but that's just bcs im stupid. i also LOVE the design and the real life incorporation. i cannot express myself enough from the 500 world limit. kudos to the team!
- Skidibri Toilet · v1.3.28
This was a fantastic game which I greatly enjoyed. The style of the game is wonderful and I loved the model world aesthetic. The puzzles were clever, although occasionally unintuitive. I did like how the game didn't hold your hand and forced you to think creatively. My only complaint with the game is that it was sometimes hard to see small objects on the screen. It would be nice to have some accessibility options to either zoom in or make small objects more obvious. I recommend it!
- Andrew · v1.3.28
I change my 5 to a 1 star. for the love of God fix half of the glitches and broken AI. give people some type of decent clues and fix the checkpoint broken puzzles that leave you stranded. I'm not gonna keep restarting a level to find the exact sequence so it doesn't glitch 25 minutes into a level and have to RESTART oh my gaaaawd. I got tired of Googling and taking pictures on one phone to help know what to do with my phone I'm playing on. whoever made the puzzles is ugh
- Jay P
Beautiful game, terrible controls and buggy at times.
- Avigayil Finger · v1.3.28
Is not compatible with my phone. On the galaxy Fold, a lot of the screen is cut off and I am unable to complete the gatehouse. Looks cool though
- Zudz Lee · v1.3.28
mind blowing game
- Shubh Kaushik · v1.3.28
This is one of the best games I've played in some time. Beautifully designed - the handyman's manual is a joy to read and spot all the little details that aren't required to complete the game, but make it all the more engaging. The puzzles are challenging but the solutions are easy to find if you need to.
- Charlie Worthington · v1.3.28
This game is gorgeous!! The art style makes me nostalgic, as if I'm flipping through some old childhood journal. Such a unique experience! ❤️
- N. R. · v1.2.13
awesome
- Sepid (arzesh) · v1.3.28
Super disappointed. The game looks great, but it's very glitchy. On my Galaxy Z Fold, parts of the UI are cut off when open, and too small when closed. I waited for updates, but nothing changed. I got stuck at the lemon puzzle because the game wouldn't let me leave the screen after solving it. After several restarts, the screen turned black except for the lemons. I paid for this game, but it was a waste of money.
- David Jancok · v1.3.28
It's a decent point-and-click. Just fine. Then there is a guitar level where you start over if you make a single mistake. What? That's insane. I'm not even sure I made mistakes. Either way it's too random. Click and hope it's correct.
- Jurij Fedorov · v1.3.28
Just so much love in one game
- Jaspar wendt · v1.3.28
A very cute and well made puzzle adventure. I got stuck a couple times, but it was satisfying every step of the way.
- Part-E
BEAUTIFUL game. Finished today. Really really amazing. The art work is Absolutely amazing. Great work.
- MI. Muhit · v1.3.28
It's very wholesome. I love how the hints for the puzzles are made in a handbook style. I'm not initially good at click-and-point game and puzzle (oftenly has low expectation to that type of game), but Lumino City surprisingly become one of my favourite
- Made Rahma · v1.3.28
Fun game with beautiful aesthetics and music. I was stuck for a while at the Morse code, but eventually resolved it after watchra YouTube walkthrough. Overall, a lovely game, albeit a short one.
- K · v1.3.28
It's awesome to see that this is still being maintained! I wasn't able to play it on a previous Android version but now, it finally works! (The vibe is very different from I'm where I expected and hoped for though. I was hoping for a cute, chill game. But it's really pretty unsettling and eerie. Can't think of a similar game but in terms of movie vibes, it would be e.g. Delicatessen or Brazil.)
- Andy O. · v1.3.28
fun and challenging. love it
- Crystal Anderson · v1.3.28
gameplay, characters, and storyline are gentle, creative, and fun. worth it!
- SarPar · v1.3.28
100% worth buying.
- bhomaram Choudhary · v1.3.28
Such a cute story, puzzles were challenging, and seeing the hilarious characters through the city was great. Controls are a little touchy, and I didn't think to use the manual until the last puzzle...it would have made it a little easier if I had! A+ developers! I Loved this game!
- Rachel Bellomy · v1.3.28
Undoubtedly one of the best games made for mobile. With all the effort that went into creating the environment a sequel must be easier to make now, rather than wasting all that work on just one game. just make it longer with harder puzzles plz.... seriously why haven't you made another, really why not???
- DOM9N9C · v1.2.9
It's a beautiful game. The music is good too. It's relaxing. The puzzles are challenging enough but not frustratingly so. There's a book you use in the game to understand the puzzles so you're not stuck. I only wish I could jump around the book so I could get to the table of contents easier and not have to repeatedly tap for the previous page. Minor gripe. I'm enjoying it. Thanks to all that worked on it. It reminds me of tearaway on the vita and I loved that game.
- Sarah James · v1.3.28
very creative
- Ismael Santtos · v1.3.28
beautiful graphics. Unique story and challenging puzzles. love this game.
- Kel Laz
I LOVE this game!!! I used to play it when I was 6 and i just remembered it and I had nostalgia so I started playing it again. It's just as good as I remember, maybe even better! I love how this isn't one of those stupid games where they update it and it's terrible. Highly recommend.
- Lucas Geitgey · v1.3.28
Beautiful and whimsical. The imagery and music are so relaxing. The puzzles are challenging enough to keep me engaged while being absolutely delightful.
- Melinda Short · v1.3.28
It's really a fun puzzle game! I love the art and storyline!
- Yohanes
Tiny gripes, but overall so good. I wish there were more games like this
- Laura F · v1.3.19
its soo hard
- Harris Family · v1.3.19
I have this game on my tablet not my phone and let me tell you something It used to work key word USED!!! Now this game won't let me play it! how annoying like all I want to do is play my puzzle 🙄 😒 😑 ....anyways it's an pain to look at it knowing I can't play it. I do not recommend this game because I can't garentee it won't happen to you as well.
- Sylvia D'Tela · v1.3.19
I had no idea what I was doing.It comes with this huge instruction manual... Not my kinda game
- Christin Franklin
I love love love puzzle games and this was AMAZING!!!!!!
- Lochlyn Brown · v1.3.19
I dled this game and tried it but didn't play it much and now I remember why. I couldn't see the text. I was going to delete it as I need room on my phone, but I've changed my mind. Now I have new glasses so perhaps I'll give it a chance. Will update later.
