Path to Mnemosyne for Android

It’s sad really because it looked like a good game and I was very interested but none of the controls work. I have no idea what to do and it is really frustrating.

I bought Path to Mnemosyne on the Nintendo Switch first. I was afraid it was going to be more of a horror game than I am comfortable with, but it’s pretty restrained. (Way too scary for kids, though!) But I really loved it. I discovered there was an iOS version, and was shocked to see the reviews were so negative. I don’t understand the complaints about controls. You use your left thumb to run forward and back, rotate the world, and hit switches. You use your right thumb to jump. It is a very standard mobile gaming approach. The visuals and sound are identical to the console version. At first I thought there was a bug - I don’t get any sound without headphones. But that may be because I have my phone mute switch on. Some of the puzzles are a bit fiddly, and I am still getting stuck on the warp holes, but in general it’s not too challenging. I haven’t needed any puzzles spoiled by walkthroughs. If you get stuck and don’t know what to do, try walking back. Further back. Keep going. See anything interesting? If you like beautiful, hand-drawn games with a creepy but not overtly scary theme, and eerie and effective sound design, brain-tickling puzzles, and an interesting if somewhat unfulfilling plot, you should give this a try. It deserves so much more credit than the App Store crowd has given it so far.

Don’t buy it, the controls don’t work. The game doesn’t work I tried the update, still doesn’t work. I cannot believe this was picked as ‘App of the Day’. Doesn’t speak well of the iTunes / Google quality controls. And the silence of the developper is astounding.

Does not work on Android or Mobile pro.

At the beginning of the game you get prompts on how to move the character but nothing the prompts tell you to do actually work. It feels like the developer offered this game before it was ready. These things cant be rushed. I love the artistic feel but lots of work needed. (And I paid $5 for a game that doesn't work.😠)
