TouchTone™ App Reviews

Fun, and it makes you wonder.

Great puzzles, and theres quite a bit of humor, in my eyes. Definitely buy this game.

Great but...

Its a really fun game, though I wish there was some variety in the puzzles.

Not great

Just a puzzle game. A very repetitive puzzle game. They try at some sort of story to go along with it but I found it to be annoying. They give you the option to make a choice now and again but just tell you if it was wrong or not after and give no penalty. Take your chances.

Mobile Intrigue Done Right

If you enjoyed Device 6, Sword and Sorcery or King of Dragon Pass the story telling will appeal to you. If Threes!, The Room or Hundreds gameplay appealed to you then this is also up your alley.

Awesome

Straight forward. Puzzling. Minimal. With beautiful visuals and sound.

Great story, repetitive gameplay.

TouchTone is a lot of fun for the first 30 or so levels, until you realize, oh, thats all there is. There are three "worlds" (for lack of a better word), and all the mechanics you ever see in the game are introduced in the first world. Similarly, theres no clear difficulty curve beyond that first world. Puzzles get harder and harder and then the game plateaus and youre at the same level of difficulty for an interminable amount of time. The story is interesting and subversive and theres a fun little twist at the end, but then the game just sort of ends (and doesnt make a whole lot of sense when it does). If TouchTone was a third the length, itd be twice as good.

Illuminati Confirmed

I love this game. Period. I just love games where you fake hack.

This is racist

Direct quote: "Samir is a Muslim and Iranian, so our work is half done." Meaning our work finding terrorists. Because being Iranian and Muslim means youre a terrorist... Whoever wrote these national security threats is seriously backward.

Racist

Lets perpetuate the notion that Muslims and Middle Eastern people pose a threat to U.S. National Security. The game was intriguing at first, but lost me when the target is deemed dangerous because he is Iranian and a Muslim. But then again, there no such thing as socially responsible gaming.

Amazing game

Really enjoying this!

Interesting but dangerously misleading.

The gameplay and plot are interesting but the criteria for what constitutes probable cause for further surveillance are totally whack. Two guys talking about smoking a joint are a national security threat but a Wall Street exec illegally trying to get his junk derivatives rated as AAA investments isnt. Right. Thanks for this asinine contribution to the surveillance debate.

Good but...

This game is pretty good. However I found it to be a bit racist. Just throwing that out there. Being a Muslim doesnt automatically make one a terrorist.

Fun game

Fun game. Im really enjoying the puzzles and how it ties into the story.

Fun puzzles, compelling story

Ive been enjoying this game quite a bit. If you like reflection puzzles with modifiers and such, this game is for you. Sometimes it seems like the difficulty of the puzzles is random rather than incremental, but thats not a big enough problem to turn me off from the game.

Brilliant puzzler with a nice story

While the puzzles and the story dont seem to be intersecting, they both are fun. Its a bummer that the extent of story integration doesnt go beyond solve puzzle/get given story. Definitely worth $3. Consider it an investment in even more games this well made.

Fun puzzles... deeply troubling narrative.

The puzzles are great, but the story is terrible. Looking for a copy of the anarchist cookbook? Youve demonstrated intent to be a TERRORIST. Looking to smoke a little weed after an exam? Youre clearly a drug trafficker and involved in TERRORISM. Talking about a "book" and how that book needs to cause a big explosion in a specific place? THAT is just two dudes talking about an actual book. Im just waiting to encounter the puzzle where I unlock correspondence between Bive Clundy and the American patriot movement only to be told that taking up arms against the government is a constitutional right and not to be considered suspicious behavior or dangerous at all. Sheesh.

Good game

This is a good game. The strategic thinking used is kind of similar to the game "Portal" and thats an awesome game

Boo!!

This game is lacking. Not worth three dollars! Not worth the time

Angry Right-Wing Fanatics, Anyone?

Mildly entertaining puzzle format unfortunately exposes an underlying narrative of bigotry and stereo-typing. "Hes Iranian and a Muslim, so our work is already half done." College students discussing pot deserve govt surveillance as drug traffickers? We dont need more fear and hatred perpetuated in our society. I seriously regret giving these "game makers" a single cent. Is that a Koch Brother I see hiding behind that curtain over there?? Shoo! Get out of my iPad!

Well done

The cool graphics and unique concept make this puzzler game fun. I like how theres no time limit on each level, so I can plan my own pace. The storyline adds a cool element to the game.
