New York Mysteries 4 Reviews

by B20937301

These games are fun, addictive, and broken. For 3 and 4 when you go to do the mini games, the instructions do not come up or stay up. On 3 I had to use screen shots to try and get some of the instructions, but on 4 there are no instructions, like the mask game which I had to look up the instructions or the telescope that I had to get the answer for. Fix these issues and the games would be great

UPDATE IN RESPONSE TO DEVELOPER:
That is a rude response to a customer who has paid $6.99 per game for every game you’ve ever made! Why not release F2P and full unlock at the same time? Instead of being shi**y to your long-standing customers? Wow.

ORIGINAL REVIEW:
I love love love all Five-BN games, but why is F2P released first now? I’d rather pay the $6.99 unlock. F2P is very unsatisfying to play. Whole different experience. Five-BN stated in a Facebook comment they are focused on F2P first now, so I don’t think this is for any other reason than trying to make more money, but they are upsetting regular players who have been buying your games for years, and will gladly pay unlock fee.

Such a shame that you have changed your profit model to these F2P games! I just loved your games until now. This one wasn’t marked F2P so I excitedly downloaded it expecting to pay for the complete game. How disappointing to find that it,too, was F2P!
Looking at so many of the reviews for many of your games, I would have hoped that you would release full versions of your latest games, but that doesn’t seem to be happening. Now, sadly, I’ll have to move on to other game producers who still cater and care about those of us that want full games.

I was enjoying this game until about 85% through when suddenly it stopped working. I started all over again to make sure I hadn’t done something to cause the glitch, but then the same thing happened. I put the key in the safe and the game froze both times. I’m very disappointed and will not try a game from this company again. How frustrating not to be able to finish! And this is the only time this has happened to me.

Clearly not made by the same people that made the last 3 NYM games. It’s really unfortunate they changed the way the game is play and even the language, should have stuck to format or previous versions.

I have bought every games you guys put out over the years and
( FIVE-BN STUDIO), before it started where you have to buy coins in order to finish the game, for that reason the 2 stars, otherwise it’s a 5 star game. I personally would like to have a option to buy the games, because your games are unique and enjoyable at the same time, you never gets bored with each game that comes out. Please bring back the option “to buy” and l’ll be back. I’ve already missed two of games. “LOYAL GAMER”.

Too many cut scenes. Too many items that need to have multiple items collected before using. Puzzles are slightly more difficult. I like the previous games much better.

You usually put your games out for purchase at 6.99$. I don’t care for this “FTP” stuff as the map is really useless and doesn’t tell you where available actions are waiting. I don’t want to pay for hints and there’s definitely not many free ones! Same as skipping a puzzle, you have to pay. I love your games more than any other developer so I guess I just feel disappointed you’re releasing them like this. My memory is so bad from cancer treatments these days it’s hard to recall where I need to be in the game at times so I need the hint, useful map and skip but not if I have to constantly pay for them. Please release them as purchase to play. I’m a long time fan and hate to give a bad review when I know the game probably rocks!

I started playing this New York series two days ago and I've finished all 4 main games. It's seriously a good time even though I got frustrated A LOT. The graphics are good. The dramatics are okay. I like the story lines and even if you just play the main game they are fun and last a long time. I don't care about the collections; if I complete them great but there is so much to do in the game I don't even worry. I don't know if I'll get the bonus chapters. I think all the stories wrapped up nicely. What more could there be??

by Sassyhelt

Thank you for the free to play option. I love playing these type of games while sitting with my husband during his chemotherapy sessions. I’m on a very limited income and can’t afford to pay $6.99 for games. You are truly a life saver.

All the games I have played are wonderful. Great graphics and great puzzles. Thank you and keep up the terrific work.

I prefer to buy my games as well, but come on. It’s Five-BN. The quality is stellar. I have a feeling it has something to do with Apple and how difficult they make it to get an app through. But that’s just a hunch...

I love thee games and have now got my hubby and son to play as well. We are hooked. Keep then]m coming.

4th installment in a wonderful series. I love getting to be a heroine. The illustrations are beautiful and the animation is solid. Highly recommend!

by Runvs.51

Definitely a great game and what’s even better is it’s not a short game!

by Tfjug

Love your games! F2P, not free to play, just keep putting them out there! Thank you for the distraction…..I have been so sick for so long and on such a limited budget..this game got me through so much! Thank you thank you thank you! Always anticipating your next game!

Beautiful graphics and life-like human animation. Fun story line.

Love the FTP versions. I wish I knew the bonus chapter cost $ as I bought coins (that I did not need!) to say thanks.

This series, NYMysteries, is the best!

by JetsGirl09

These games are amazing. They have great graphics, storyline, and very interesting puzzles. Everything about these games is just terrific. This is the 4th one I’ve done and can’t wait to go onto their other games. My deepest appreciation goes out to the workers on these games. Thanks.

by TechGirlU

Absolutely love this series. Really fun and you get a long play experience. Really sad I’ve hit the end of the series. I’d love it if they cane out with a new series, mystery without the supernatural would be great.

by Cinabon8

I just love this game! I can’t wait to go back and play the other previous versions. I just don’t like the fact that you have to buy coins for hints, but it is a challenge, and I do like that. Awesome Sauce!!!

by Mz JuJu

I would’ve gladly bought this game, but I’m just turned off by the whole coins thing. Just give the option to pay the one time price and play the whole game. I’ll come back then.

by Dps1

I enjoy all the New York Mysteries…this one has a glitch I can’t get by.
I have sent email twice for support…no response yet.

Please fix bugs.

by Drosietwo

Please release this game to IOS as a stand alone game as you have done in the past. Your games are usually quite enjoyable, but I refuse to play them in this F2P format.

by Rooster Krohkaleo

Five-BN is the best of its kind. This game doesn’t disappoint. But it’s really creepy that it came out in 2019 and it literally involves a coronavirus outbreak plot.

by Drewman12345

I love this role based mystery game. It’s hard to put down.

by Dancergeon

Love it. Another great episode.
