Cute and Quick This is the perfect kind of game from Netflix because the game is of great quality, and I wouldn't have played it otherwise. We skip the entire conversation around "value" and game length that overshadows games generally. As for the game itself, it's really well done. It has a good difficulty level, and the scenarios are responsive to many unexpected situations. Great display of creativity and humour.

Pretty fun puzzle game overall. Later in the game the navigation between starts feeling a little tedious, and late game challenges require you to have a clear memory of what happened in early levels. However since it's generally a quick and engaging game, it's definitely possible to finish in one or two days, to avoid forgetting early levels.

Extremely entertaining, incredibly high quality puzzle game. The puzzles get progressively harder and engaging the more they go up, when they get more complex. Not a hard game by any means, but a pretty fun relaxant. I hope they extend it and make a sequel, cause I literally can't stop playing. Would recommend. EDIT: As much as I didn't want to, I had to lower the score to 2 stars because I opened the app offline and it deleted all my progress.

This is a fun puzzler. It's cute, with a fun variety of stories you need to make, interesting extras and some replay with the "Stamps". This suffers a little for being reworked for touchscreen, as control was iffy at times [also, mine crashed a bit, but my phone's old, so that may be a "me" issue]. It also felt a bit rigid at times, but it is a puzzle game... maybe if it was too "free" it would be too hard to make & less fun. Either way, cool idea, fun game & I recommend it if you like stories.

Well, the game still is fun, though a few levels are different, and the after-crown part was new to me. Thanks for that :) One issue that is irritating – the stamps are not saved by fact of completion, but are marked as accomplished only when it is currently appear in any level where it was possible to achieve it. I mean, I have gained some like ten times only to notice it disappear again, duh. Upd. Now it works properly and saves, thanks!

Interesting mechanics and clever implementation. I do have two qualms about the secret stamp collection. 1) If you don't go to the stamp book after getting a stamp, the game will forget you got it. 2) While I get not telling us which stories can be used for which stamps (that would make it too easy), the ability to filter the stories by elements would be appreciated. I want to go after more, but finding which stories have, say Isabel and the drinking scene, can be a bit tedious.

So, people have been saying that their progress gets erased, their phones have been getting really hot, and that you have to have a Netflix account, but my problem is when you do *finally* get to "The Ceremony" and put the crown on the pillow, the page will flash for a second but then do absolutely nothing. It's not exactly frozen, because the background will still do the swirling thing with all the purple and whatnot, but the book and pages will not do *anything*.

Except for the "online requirement" of the game it is absolutely amazing! I felt kind of disappointed that it was so short to be honest. It was so good that I'd say this is the kind of game I'd pay for new chapters, and I've NEVER done that kind of thing in all my years of gaming. Too bad ig Netflix owns it and it's probably not going to get as much support and love as it deserves. I hate Netflix's management for things like this...

I'm sure this could be a great game, but like every other Netflix game I've tried, it just won't load. I couldn't tell you what the opening page looks like if I wanted to, all I've seen is the Netflix logo and then a black screen. I've reset the game, closed and reopened it, restarted my phone, etc, etc, etc, and it just. won't. load. Very frustrating and annoying. What on earth is happening?

Storyteller is cute, short game which I really enjoyed, however, one achievement away from full completion, my entire save was wiped and I can't figure out how to recover it. I mean, it's not a terrible outcome, I only spent 4 hours on this game and didn't plan on revisiting it once I finished but I can't help but think about how I was one step away from full completion and can not fulfill that satisfaction with another few hours of work. It's just irritating.

The game wouldn't even start for me. Like I open the app see the Netflix icon and then just a black screen. I've seen some levels other people played so I know the game itself would be great if only I could actually play it. Instead it's just black screen until I get an error eventually. EDIT: I managed to open it and play once but the next ut went back to the black screen issue. Fun when I can access the app. Sad when I can't.

Would give 5 stars if not for all the bugs. It was working fine at first but as of now it crashes constantly. I've stopped trying to get all the stamps because every time it crashes (about every minute and a half) it deletes a few stamps from my album and I have to go back and get them again, at which point it's crashed again and taken a stamp that I just got back. It would be such a fun game if it actually worked. Please make it playable, and give us some new levels for our pain and suffering.

I loved seeing how fun and seemingly enjoyable this game was before I downloaded. After I get past the Netflix logo, it's a black screen for about 3 minutes. After this, an error pops up about how netflix "couldn't process my request". Haven't been able to play the game yet, and this seems to be a problem for many other reviewers. NETFLIX, FIX THIS GAME!

A cute, clever little game! Because of the bugs people mentioned and my hate of losing save data, I decided to play through all 10 chaps in a 2-hour sitting and hope nothing would happen. Luckily, I only ran into two bugs: After I logged in for the first time, the app got stuck on a black loading screen and needed to be reopened. And during Chap 9, the app froze while I was putting together a story, and again needed to be reopened. Those aside, loved the art and had fun with the mechanics!

Progress reset is a huge issue... I would say it's a 5-star game; the levels progressively get harder and the graphics are right where they should be. However, like many others I made it very far in the game (to devil level 9) when all of the sudden my game progress reset itself. Until this error is fixed I would say it's a 2-star game: fun, but you have to be willing to randomly lose all progress. :(

Very good and cute game. You of course need a Netflix account, (it's on the icon... don't 1 star it just for that...) It is very easy to access with Netflix already on your device. I never experienced any bugs that others had, although I'm not sure how lower end devices would fare. Very very cute art and animation. SFX, music, and narration was very nice. Engaging puzzles. Silly secret finale. I loved the game overall. Deserves more of a 4.5 star rating rather than what it has now.

This game is really cute and fun! The artwork and scenarios have a lot of attention to detail, and they are challenging in fun and unexpected ways. BE WARNED: it kills the battery so much! (And it's not like there is much 3D rendering, collisions, or anything crazy to calculate). I have a MASSIVE battery in my phone (Galaxy S21 Ultra), and it still was dying after playing. It sounds like they fixed the save and crash glitches, though, so good job.
