HOW SURE ARE WE
Not in any grossing chart, so this comes from ratings growth (4.2 new ratings a month on average since launch): revenue grows with new ratings, more slowly for apps that collect ratings fast. Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2 times, and big earners tend to come out low. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

★★★★★ Trotz Lagerfeuer und richtig angeordneter Sensoren geht es nicht weiter. Auch ein Neuladen oder eine neues Spiel bringen mich nur bis zu diesem Punkt im Lager.
★★★★★ Nachdem ich alle Rätsel bis zum Level Lager - auch die Sensoren-Stellung richtig gelöst habe - legt sich die Figur nicht automatisch schlafen, sodass der Weg zum Level Mission nicht weitergespielt werden kann. Schön,…

Schönes Adventure, macht Spaß

Macht Spaß, Empfehlung

★★★★★Feb 2, 2026
Warum nochmals bezahlen?

Obwohl rechtmäßig bezahlt, soll ich es nun nochmals kaufen. So verschreckt man Kunden.

★★★★★Mar 29, 2024
Passend für einen verregneten Nachmittag, da sehr kurz

Nettes Spiel im typischen Geheimakte Stil, allerdings wirklich kurz. Ich hatte es in etwa 2 Stunden durchgespielt, lohnt sich also kaum… den Hauptcharakter Sam fand ich ein wenig überheblich, aber die Story ist ganz nett. Schaden tut es also nicht.

★★★★★Dec 5, 2023
Completely unlikeable main character

Graphics good. Game ok so far thru intro. Are we supposed to hate the main character? She’s really an awful person.

★★★★★Feb 7, 2023
No glitches like the previous one!!!!

I love these games! I got all the way through it without any glitches which made the game unplayable like secret files 2 where we first meet Sam. But you don’t need to do the previous game to make sense of this one. Have fun!

★★★★★Jan 9, 2023
Wichtig! Reihenfolge beachten!

Das Spiel ist kurzweilig und unterhaltsam. Allerdings gibt es ein Problem im Bereich "Lager". Zündet man hier das Lagerfeuer zu früh an, so kommt man danach nicht mehr weiter im Spiel voran und ist gezwungen einen früheren Spielstand zu laden. Sollte dieser nicht vorhanden sein, dann muß man das Spiel sogar ganz von vorne beginnen. Deshalb ist es hier wichtig das Lagerfeuer erst dann anzuzünden, wenn man alles andere erledigt hat.
