The Birdcage in IOS

★★★★★ Has potential

I think this is a good puzzle game for those who are new in the puzzle genre. I went through the puzzles relatively quickly and the in-app purchases are cheap compared to some escape room/puzzle games similar to this. It kept my mind occupied and I found many of the levels replay-able. It’s not bad but an expansion would certainly be appreciated. Also I did run into a bug on one of the levels where the item display stopped working and I had to exit out of the app. Prolonged gameplay is likely to make the game bug up in small ways like this but nothing that an exit-and-swipe-away before coming back to the app can’t fix. Overall, I would recommend to busy people newer to puzzles who want a relatively easy escape-room-esque kind of game to play (and by easy, I mean that the clues in the puzzles are relatively easy to pick up on). I enjoyed it as a puzzle enthusiast, however, like I mentioned, I went through each level relatively quickly, quicker when replaying to get all the gems for unlocking the epilogue; you’ll have a harder time finding all the gems than beating each level. Those who desire head-scratching mega-puzzles may not find this difficult at all, especially since many of the puzzles have a theme and/or repeats types of puzzles.
