Flashback: Tricky Fun Riddles Reviews

So, I love this game so much, I love the gameplay, the mystery, the riddles. I played all the levels in one weekend. Well I got on a couple weeks later to play the new levels but I’m stuck on level 211 bc of a glitch in the system. Ever since the new levels came out, the whole thing is glitchy, the headlines and puzzles from one level will get stuck in another, and the cat will say the same thing in 4 different levels. And then level 211, put the pine cone in the fire to make it hotter. Played it so many times and tried so many different things. Checked both hints to make sure it was right. It would have the vibration to signal the end of the level but then nothing would happen, the level wouldn’t end. I used all my money trying to skip it- I literally used over 15 skips, and still stuck on the same level. It won’t let me skip to the next level. So I can’t play it anymore and I’m really sad. Ive restarted my phone, the game, the level, so many times, but nothing. Plz fix!!!

It looks like a fun game, but who can tell? After each screen play is an ad. Not my idea of enjoyment. I don’t have that much time to watch ads. Sometimes we play the game only during a break. By the time you get to play through a couple of screens, you’ve already had to watch three ads. What a waste of my time. I played only two screens and quit when it went to another ad. I thought I downloaded a game, not ads. When I got here to see if others had the same feelings I do, I read some responses from the ad, I mean game developer and they are all computerized responses. As soon as they see it’s a negative review, the kick it to the auto-response team. If the reviews are good about the game, they have different responses. So we waste our time if we expect them give a hoot about how we feel. Watch, I’ll get a computerized response. If I don’t its because I said something about it. But it don’t matter, I’m deleting it right now anyway.

It looks and sounds like it would be fun to play, yet it’s very confusing trying to figure out how to actually play the game. You’re given a scenario, you move the lever at the bottom to help figure out the correct answer. However, moving the lever actually gives you the answer which takes the fun out of the game. Then when you click on something, nothing happens, I kept moving the lever back-and-forth clicking on the correct object to get a check mark but it took me quite a few times, on each level before I would get a green checkmark. I never did actually figure out, how I ended up with a green check. I think it would be helpful, if there were better instructions, maybe a help button as well. For myself, it just wasn’t fun knowing the answer immediately, I like to use my brain to figure things out.

This game looked fun in the ads so I was looking forward to trying it out. I saw a review where someone said they force you to allow them to track. I thought that can’t be true, how could they get away with that and with pretty decent reviews. So I decided to try it myself. After I loaded it and the apple thing pops up to ask if they can track and you of course hit no, then other apps just move on from there. But sure enough a thing from the game popped up that won’t let you into the game without allowing them to track your info. So I didn’t even get to try the game to see how it is since I can’t get in.

This game is one I have not played because upon download, I chose to not allow tracking. A disclaimer popped up with a nice story about how it is our choice to play without being tracked. At the bottom of the disclaimer, three boxes must be clicked in order to continue to the game. Two of those boxes are to allow tracking. One for game improvement and bugs, the other is to allow for advertisement tracking across other apps. The exact thing the above mentioned disclaimer said we the consumer have the right to decide for ourselves. The third box was to verify age.

There was no way past giving permission to gain access to the actual game. Because of this, I rate the game at 1 star.

I can tolerate an ad after every level like this I get the reason ads exist so I’m not going to bicker about that. However, this is my 2nd day on Flashback and it reverted me back from level 23 to 12. I figure ok maybe a just a minor bug. I tapped the daily reward and watched an ad 4 TIMES! Not the same ad mind you, but for the same Makeover Merge game. On the fourth time it finally froze and crashed. I haven’t been able to restart so I had to uninstall it. Great concept fun game but not worth getting annoyed over either.

I genuinely enjoyed this game a lot!! Really fun and keeps the mind going. However is in need of MORE LEVELS!! I am still waiting for another update for it.

Only downloaded it because of the ad that kept showing up on my fb. However I enjoyed the game but it’s super easy and it gets boring after a while.

EDIT: I beat all 301 levels. If the creators decide to add more, please make them harder. It would be better if some levels were timed. I only needed help 3 times out of all 301 levels.

Each level is easy enough it takes 3-5 seconds to solve. And after every level you have to watch a 5-20 second ad. Not worth it even a little. I wasn’t going to write a review, but then it asked me to do a rating and when I put 2 stars it wouldn’t let me post it from the game. So I lowered it to 1 star and came to Flashback Store directly to write a review.
Don’t waste my time with so many ads, and don’t be shady.

Extremely disappointed. App is not responsive when choosing the correct option. No clue finding - the game literally tells you exactly what happened if you slide the lever to “see the past.”
Alarmingly, my phone started slowing down right after downloading this game. Deleted immediately and will not recommend. In fact, it’s bad enough that I came back to leave a review.
The positive reviews seem faked/bots.

The games is great but there are to many ads way to many that I am not going to play the game. I get burnt out in the ads there is more ad time than game time. So I did enjoy it but I also deleted it.

Glitches where you have to exit the game a lot sometimes it works others it doesn’t level 95 drag arrow disappears and you can’t play the level

Love the game except twice I ran out of levels to play. I played level 301 and have been waiting for more levels for over 2 weeks. I’ve never had this happen to me before. I wish it was an ongoing game. Please hurry with more levels, otherwise I’m deleting the game. Thank you.

I didn’t even start and it made me agree to collect personal data (isn’t safe) other wise I couldn’t play don’t download. Btw I put five stars so you will see it

I love this game had it for 2 days and couldnt stop playing so i completed all levels and cant wait for additional levels hopefully very soon .

I’ve solved many puzzles. After I solved them….ads keep showing up. There’s too many ads showing up and it’s really bothering me. I want those ads to stop coming up.

It’s a cool concept and nice animation style but good luck trying to actually play it. The buggy game play completely ruin any enjoyment you might have. When you finish a level, it just freezes completely. You can’t go back or move to the next level, you have to close Flashback and open it again. It’s a game that’s legitimately frustrating to play.

DO NOT DOWNLOAD. I chose to ask Flashback not to track my data. Well, if you do that, it literally will not allow you to play the game. It forces your to consent to the use of your personal data and information. Upon reading the information in the consent form, it clearly states that they will use your data wether you like it or not; however they please. Do NOT download this game.

Fun game, but the only issue is one of the ad sounds still plays after ad is over.

I need more levels I finished this whole game within 2 days

There are WAY too many ads in this game. You play literally one 25 second level and then watch a one minute or longer ad. Also, a corpse could play this game. There’s no “what happened” mystery. They play the first half of the scenario with absolutely no clues, then they pause the scene. Then you hit “play” and they show what happened before the crime. Example: a guy is standing next to a cliff and gets hit by a car….game paused and they ask “accident or murder?” They want you to guess with NO clues given. Hit play and they show the car driving off underneath a Traffic Camera. Click the camera and it shows the driver drinking and throwing the bottle out of the window. This is basically what the entire game is like….when you aren’t watching ads. You’ll spend much more time watching ads than playing the game, however. Disappointing game all around.

This game is super fun but there is just a few things. First is that the game is very complex and also that you can’t get any coins without watching adds. Multiple times I had to watch adds for hints because of confusing levels. The second thing is that on level 30 I watched and add (🙄) to get a hint and the hint said “look under the waiters napkin” so I tried clicking it and it didn’t do anything! I clicked on it multiple times and it didn’t work. Also a REALLY annoying thing is that if you are still at a certain part it will start getting diner and flash little frost on your screen. It’s very annoying especially in the middle of a level. Other than those things the game is okay overall. 😀

The overall gameplay is really nice, the concept is good and the execution is well done. It’s a fun and enjoyable game to play when you are bored. However, if you are sensitive to topics like murder and suicide, then maybe this isn’t the best choice for you. A lot of the levels involve determining whether a death was caused by suicide, or if it was just an accident or murder. They add jokes that are, of course, not really funny, especially when talking about murder and suicide 👀 ok but for me, I really enjoyed this game nonetheless. Thank you for reading

This game is extremely offensive towards people who are suffering from mental illness such as suicidal thoughts. This game could also bring many bad memories or feelings towards people who have lost someone from suicide. I know this game was offensive to me and I bet it was to many others. The general idea of the game is great but maybe take out the suicide stuff. There was a part where I had to decide how she killed herself… this should not be a joke or something for people to laugh about. This game has a low age limit considering the suicide, murder and other deaths. This game was extremely glitchy and had a lot of adds. Overall I did not enjoy this game and do not recommend it.

So when so got this game i thought this is game is going to be so fun but when i got on the the game it gave me like 2 or 3 adds and I was like ok it’s only 2 or 3 adds I think this game will still be fun but it was the same even when I actually started playing the game it gave me 2 or so adds and it even kept glitching and I was like “SCAMMERS GET SCAMED”and I was like “WHAT WAS THE REASON???WHAT WAS THE REASON???” And me personally I think that there is no point of getting this game unless you like adds and you like when you phone glitches but me personally never again🤪🤣😇

About the game it’s just a little hard on level 17 I wish that the black cat 🐈‍⬛ would be on your screen while playing the game so you push the black cat and he gives you a hint and he can give you up to 3 hints the reason why I’m saying this is because the hints aren’t working and also it’s a little hard but I believe if you add that then that would make it so easy for other people and me thank you sincerely [AVERY]

I love this game I play it literally ever day for my daily claims but I have one complaint that could really help the game if it were to be fixed. The problem is that each time you pass a level you get coins but their is nothing to spend the coins on which makes all my coins pile up and sit there and that’s a little annoying but other than that great game and I love the cats remark’s 🐈‍⬛ . Thank you for hearing me out!! 😃😁 Have a nice day!!!

I played this game for a full week and only when I was bored to see if it would be fun. It started out very interesting at first but once I got to level 35 the puzzles started repeating over and over! Sigh by level 40 I was soo over it! I don’t know how many levels there are but if they’re relating at level 35 that ridiculous! Anybody could beat that in one day! I’m definitely deleting Flashback now! Can do it especially since there’s an AD or two after every game… it’s truly annoying! If they could fix that glitch it would keep people playing!

This is a fun game! I enjoy the concept and gameplay as it’s very enjoyable to me, but there are levels where they referenced that one committed $uicide and I have a bit of a problem with that as it had no mention of that on the game description. Although it didn’t trigger me, I’m concerned that it will trigger others who download it without expecting that.

What’s the point of the coins if there’s nothing to spend them on? Seriously. You collect coins for the purpose to spend them. That’s literally their daily reward. The “shop” is legit just full of nothing but micro transactions to get the never ending wave of ads to stop. If people have an addiction to seeing number go boing then this is the game for you because you get coins after every level with no intent to spend them. Stack your bread kings and queens.

For the most part this game is easy! The only reason that I gave it 4 stars and not 5 stars was because the amount of ads. For the most part the game only takes a couple seconds so the ads are unreasonable. Maybe it should be like every 3 games. Other than that though I like it.

I thought this app would be a fun yet easy game to play in my free time. Maybe it is, but I wouldn’t know because it never even loaded. Worse, it made my phone glitch for a while. It was loading about 90%, and then it stopped. I gave it a few minutes, but nothing. I figured if I can’t play the game, then why is it taking up my storage?

However, I couldn’t get back to my Home Screen, because my phone was frozen. Coincidence? I think not. After powering my phone down, I went to delete the game. It worked this time, but my phone is still acting weird. Again, coincidence? Nope.

Thank you to those of you who actually read my rating and reason. Be careful before getting this game because it might make your phone act up, too.

❤️

I like the game. But I paid to get rid of ads and now I have an ad banner that stays at the bottom of the screen where you cannot even tap the setting button or anything without clicking the stupid ad. I mean it covers the whole bottom. I highly suggest you fix this. And if I paid for no ads then why the crap am I still getting one and one that is so in the way.

I really love this game I just started it today and haven’t stopped playing… However every fourth or fifth challenge items stop being interactive. The only results so far is to close the game and relaunch it. I hope this bug can be fixed. Thank you
Again great game!

I paid to be able to play the expert levels and it shows that they are all unlocked. However when I tap the play button nothing happens. None of the levels will open.
I can play the standard levels on the map, but I want to be about to use the content I paid for.

Im only giving this a five star so everyone can see I don’t like the game first it has to many ads and it wont even load for me like hello load faster and plus it just overall a bad game please do not waste you time and effort to play this game it is click bait

The game is good and the concept is cool but I’ve paid 4.99$ to remove any ads but that does not include the x2,x3,x4,x5 money bonus after finishing the level so u still have to watch an ad??! And u have to watch an ad just to play the special levels????!!!! Sooooo you’re telling me (((4.99$))) just for the pop up ads???!!!! You guys should reconsider the pricing bc that’s too expensive for a pop up ads it should be between (0.99$ to 1.99$). but 4.99$ is tooooo expensive for that, it’s a whole premium mobile game price 😠😠😠.
At last I’ve paid this price just so they repeat the levels again and again WOOOOOW, and again u have to pay (4.99$) just to enjoy a repeating levels without interrupting????!!!!!!

Playing a different game this one showed up as ad free. Considering how much I love puzzles games I was willing to try it out. As soon as I loaded the game it instantly came up with a weekly fee for ad free play. Thinking it couldn’t be to bad with ads I tried it anyway. After every level there’s a ad. During the middle of the bonus level another ad. I don’t mind ads on good games and this one seems pretty good, but that’s just way to pushy to make cash of the ad fee weekly fee.

So my daughter downloaded Flashback recently and I was seeing what was going on in Flashback so an ad came on and it was so inappropriate it said the A word and I was hoping it would get better but it just got worse so I had no choice but to delete it and I’m just horrified how inappropriate it was and there was another one showing my daughter a game of a boss and a coworker kissing these games are getting to inappropriate and KIDS are playing games with this stuff I’m sick of it moms I hope we can find a solution for this but turn airplane mode on too it helps from adds.

I really love the game but since the update I no longer get the daily coins and it has started giving me the ad isn’t ready when I do the tombstone part of it. And after I updated I get the tombstone games as soon as I open it. Can this be fixed I play the game with my grandsons and it helps them to focus and locate what needs to be found and they enjoy it too!

The game itself is fun, but a handful of the scenarios just don’t make sense in the grand scheme of things. A guy gets killed by a drunk driver - is it an accident or murder? It’s both, not to the game it’s not! There was another two scenarios with Moon the cat (the game’s mascot) talking about decreasing work hours and increasing wages. What are you talking about? Where is this coming from - you’re a cat. Was Moon originally a SJW and was transformed into a cat? The world map is already set in a graveyard and the cat is talking - double down on the magic logic. The nail in the coffin was not specifically about a scenario, but Moon’s reaction/comment on beating it - “Men aren’t worth fighting for;” this app to two girls fighting over a guy. “Whose the real lover?” You solve it by reassembling a picture from his wallet… and you find out it’s the third woman behind him (his girlfriend.) Wouldn’t it make sense for the girlfriend not to be there and have him be smirking like he wants the other two girls to fight for him making him look like the bad guy? No, instead, they’re stressed out from the situation and seemingly trying to deescalate it. I can tell what type of person made this. Stop being a game developer if you struggle not to involve politics with everything in your life.

Ok so when I got this game it was really fun bc it was a really good problem solving game and the cat "Moon" is really funny. So this WAS a great game but after a while once you get to like the levels 20 and up it isn't really any more problem solving and was more of just a "find the object" game and I got really mad because I've been trying to find an easier problem solving game than Braindom bc Braindom is really hard and I just got really annoyed that I got this game thinking it would be about problem solving and it wasn't. So Umm... not totally loving the vibe rn 🙅‍♀️😕

i myself am a heavy game player. this game is so slow. it doesn’t have too many ads but it’s very slow until a higher level. there are tons of pop-ups which makes it hard to play & focus.

sometimes the flashbacks don’t work/help. there are tons of glitches which makes it near impossible to play. you have to watch ADS to get a hint- i get it, they want money, but it’s ridiculous. it made me very frustrated. i had to delete it because it was glitchy and too easy.

I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS GAME. DO BETTER.

It’s a really fun and great game to get your mind going. Some levels have surprised me so far because I had trouble figuring it out, LOL! It seems simple but then when you finally figure it out, you’re like “WOW”. Also I love Moon, the cat, and all his little sayings at the end of the levels, it makes you chuckle a little bit because it’s funny.

It’s just a horrible game. It’s literally literally I thought there’s gonna be different because people keep saying it’s good but this is a horrible game. The government needs to ban it. It’s so horrible. They all the ads that ad just don’t get me about the ad there’s so much ads popping up on the screen is just so annoying and I don’t even know why I download this game he’s like literally literally should even deserve one star. It deserve a zero star cause it’s so freaking boring and I gotta do and all you do is it it doesn’t even do do not buy this game. I’m just saying do not buy it because it’s just like just don’t buy just don’t buy.🤬🤬🤬

I’ve been playing this game for about 2 years. I bought the no ads option and for a while it was fun to play. I got up to leave 320. Then I stopped for a while. Recently I decided to play again and when I opened Flashback I saw that they are offering a sub. No way. These developers are out of their minds for asking for $6.99 a week for their game. I skipped that and went to start on a new level. Then an ad played. I wasn’t too worried because it has been a while since I played. I went to restore my purchase but there’s no option for that. Anywhere in Flashback . So I sent an email explaining my problem. I never heard back. So I sent another one. Still nothing. There’s no way to restore my purchase. The company is ignoring emails. Do yourself a favor and don’t download. It’s a big scam.

I got this game earlier today, and I’ve just got to level 35. It’s fun, entertaining, and there aren’t too many ads! So far, it’s managed to keep me, someone with a very short attention span, entertained. And for the bug, after, or even before I watch an ad, there will be this weird squishing sound? And I play with sounds and music off, but keep my earbud volume up, so I’m not completely sure what the problem is. Asides from that, it’s a great game and I would highly recommend it!

I like the game but the one thing I don't like is when you aren't playing it the you HAVE to play it and if you don't mind it then this game is for you. One other thing is that when you finish all the levels you kinda get bored of it. And some of the levels are hard and then easy so that is very odd. If someone wants to fix this put it from easiest to hardest. The last thing it the levels are all different things on the slider thing.

Very fun game, I played for 2 or 3 weeks, I made it to level 331 and realized the last 4 or 5 levels were just repeats of older levels, same question and same items to grab, I understand recycled questions but their should have been different items in different places or different ways to solve the same level. Also the coins… why do you reward us with coins when there isn’t anything you can do with them? Nothing to buy with the coins, only thing available to purchase is more skips or hints and they’re all cash , not the coins. I would re download and even pay for Flashback once, instead of weekly, IF you were able to update the game more and figure out what to do with the coin situation. Again I loved the game, but it wasn’t done well and I apparently finished it already, so I unsubscribed and deleted it :/

So on the ad piture it all of it atuly is inaproparate there cutting stuff there telling who is dead I’m a seven year old and I just found this ad this is not acceptability like I’m just getting this out of me as soon as possible like who killed who this is nuts like there was a doll I. The guys throat she swallowed a ring a girl died on the train tracks whoeve PE the developer should be ashamed of them self this is observe I’m a sever year old girl so bye . STAY SAFE OUT THERE GUYS LOVE YALL!!!👁️👄👁️💅💅🩷🩷💄🥹
