Art Story Reviews

I luv this game and I really don’t play games. I enjoy the classics and the beautiful pictures that they provide to go along with them. After this last update I started to notice that while trying to place new cards in their appropriate decks they would show other decks to place them in. Either way the new cards would not be delivered to any of the decks. I’ve completed all my puzzles and stories. ArtStory either has no additional books or puzzles or something is wrong. I can’t access my own data to verify if there is an issue with my account. I’m not able to find easy ways through my app to contact anyone or to see about updates. I’m also unable to get to store to shop for any items.
I have always rated a strong 5***** for ArtStory but unless I can get my problems fixed I can not rate higher than 3***. I currently feel that may be generous at this point.
I’ve never been able to locate any descriptive rules for the game either. This may be an oversight on my part but would like to see some either way.

I have always rated ArtStory 5 stars, because it was my favorite puzzle game by far. As a vociferous reader, the whole concept made it truly unique and interesting. Some of my favorite novels have been included.
I have rated it 3 stars this time because I am wondering where new content may be.
I recognize you are a small company, which makes time short. However, instead of new content with each update, a new concept has been added then changed and changed again. A lot more ads have been added as well.
If there was any new content I would happily pay to have ads removed. Instead of making different features then changing them numerous times, it would put my rating back to 5 stars to see more of the original content.
Please add more novels, and/or complete the ones that have been available for some time.
I still say this is my favorite puzzle app, but instead of putting in more features that change with each update, it would be fantastic to get to new content for the original concept, which is wonderful.
I appreciate in advance any feedback.
Have you heard the phrase “dance with the one that brung ya”?
Go back to what made ArtStory so popular.
Thank you for your time.

It's a fun game, but the glitches have been quite annoying. It reset my Great Gatsby playthough to level three after I had gotten through level eight, my ink drops keep getting deleted on me, and the puzzles like the glitch out to the point where they're unrecognizable. That all being said, it's still a really fun game and a cool concept, but I feel like a lot of the debugging stage was just skipped over. Seems like this one needs a couple more updates to fix the issue, but I think the developers are definitely onto something with this game.

Listen this game is great, the music is beautiful, the puzzles are fun and the art is amazing. My problem is that for some reason when I’m playing my game skips a puzzle in the story and when I come back later I’m reset and have to play through puzzles I’ve already done. I was on like chapter twelve of the secret garden AND NOW IM BACK AT 8. It’s incredibly frustrating since I don’t want to have to watch 20 adds and solve all the puzzles again just to get back to where I was. Also the English is a little poor but ya know whatever.

This is a super fun and creative game, and I enjoy it a lot! The only issue is that the descriptions are often written in very poor English, causing them to be confusing, or, occasionally, impossible to understand. I don't mind if the descriptions aren't in English, just wanted to make a note that the translations don't make very much sense a lot of the time!

Edit: wanted to add that i LOVE the artwork! All of the different styles are beautiful and I love that the artist's names are given!

This game is very fun and relaxing! The ads are minimal, and the art is lovely. My one complaint is the writing. Each picture installment of a story is accompanied by a short prose piece explaining what is happening in the picture. However, these prose pieces are very poorly written and difficult to interpret at times. ArtStory would really stand to benefit by using editors for their writing process.

I really like this game but there’s one problem, whenever I play the “Trojan War Puzzle 4 of Chapter 2,” it says I don’t have internet and now I can’t play the game. When I deleted and re-download ArtStory , it let me play again up until I got to that same spot, it stopped. I think there is only a problem with this one puzzle. I’d anyone else having trouble with this?

I cannot find the update you messaged me to look for. The one for Christmas Carol June 23 Now I’m stuck on Aesops Fables. It has a fox and a stork and I have about 2/3/done but I can’t get the next piece. When I go to him, it shows me where the next piece should go. I think it’s the fox’s leg but it won’t lock in place. I’ve tried the hint 3-4 times and I can’t get it to stay in place anywhere and it won’t advance to the next piece until I get this one. My biggest complaint is how much room is used up on my iPad. I tried off loading it but the next day when I went to play it, it all came back. I wish there was a way to delete the ones I’ve finished. Both Christmas Carol and Wizard of Oz have no more story but they are killing my storage. Can you help?

There is a new update but I can’t download it because there’s no room.

Okay, I love puzzles, I love books, I love art. This is a great combination of the three. One issue: sometimes the structuring of the language doesn’t flow. Like, when English (my first language) is the developers secondary (or tertiary, and learning a new language is hard, so I’m not upset at all) language, and I just wanted to point it out so that it could make more sense when being read.

Also, I would live to go back and re-read without doing the same puzzles again, please?

I have the weekly subscription, but am still seeing ads. After I have completed a puzzle I must painstakingly wait for it to finish before I can proceed to a new one and they are constantly on at the bottom of the screen.

Am I missing something?

Really like this game but can not see the picture the colors are so light that you can’t make out where the pieces go…I tried to lighten/darken it but still can’t see the picture…I guess I will have to delete the game unless you can change all backgrounds a darker color….

I am up dating my review, I am now giving it 5⭐️s…I can see where to put the pieces…than you so much…it is really appreciated

I truly enjoy working on these puzzles that picture classic books. It’s fun to try and figure out which novel is being depicted. Most reveal the name of the classic book at the end; some don’t have a name revealed but I’m able to figure it out based on the picture. Unfortunately, one has me totally stumped and there’s no name but they all are in the same style of drawing. The characters have large round eyes. Any help?? Thank you!

I downloaded it, tried to play it once, got frustrated and forgot about it. Some time later I tried again and I'm now addicted to the silly app! It's become my go to game! The one and only thing I don't care for are the dark backgrounds with the dark outlines.. those are tough.
There are a couple of other ones like it, but they throw ads in.
I just hope they don't run out of stories/pictures!
Thanks for a great app!

Such a fun app, love how each of the ‘stories’ get their own unique song that plays while you put it together. I’ve been hooked starting with the ‘dark’ stories, easy to use, doesn’t require spending real money to enjoy it. Often I will download an app after watching an ad, rarely do I keep it, this is a keeper. Thank you!

This is an amazing puzzle game to have in my collection. My only gripe about it is that there are some misspelled words in some of the descriptions. Like in the first picture of chapter two of the Greek Myths, The Children of Gaea.

But other then that, it is gorgeous. I love the music that each puzzle has, the art just flows beautifully, and everything is easy to find!

I love this game but very disappointed after the recent update. Color is now distorted in the pictures and it is very hard to see the lines. Originally thought it was just one puzzle but determined it is that way on all of them.

I love this game especially the stories. Also love the events just wish you would update the stories. They haven’t been updated in a long time. I know it takes time. But I’ve accumulated over a 100,000 ink drops waiting. Have nothing to spend them on so as I play they increase. But I’m addicted so I play every day anyway. I’ve redid most puzzles twice already. Lol This game is wonderful keep up the good work.

Im literally obsessed with this game. I think about it all the time i love the concept, its wonderful. My goal is to complete every book they put on there. In my mission to do this i completed the ones that only had one chapter and i started on the trojan war and i got to a chapter and its fried my game. I cant move past it or play it or play other books and its terrible. Its all i want to do and i cant do it now. Please fix it.

I’d like to say I LOVE this game very much!

Just one small suggestion: when I finish the picture on ‘fantasy’ page, I find that the same picture on ‘all’ page is still unfinished, that means I need to play twice for the same picture. Is it possible to sync them?

This is a great game to play that gets harder as you go along. It’s fun to see great works of literature depicted in a beautiful, visual format. I have to comment on one of the latest pieces of literature by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. It has been misnamed as The Hound of Bakersville. It should be The Hound of the Baskervilles. Small criticism, wonderful game.
