Unclear mini-game. I played the free trial. The majority of what I played was entertaining; however, one of the mini-games was confusing. I've experienced this same game, and the same confusion, in other games, too. You're supposed to ascertain whether someone is lying or being truthful by picking out clues on their person and matching them to their statements, in one mode, and by matching clues on their person, as well as clues that you already have, to their statements, in another. The problem is that it's unclear what one should be clicking on -- it's inconsistent. Clicking directly on clues worked some times, but not others; clicking on the words in the circle was correct sometimes, but not all the time; and bringing up the clues I already had was so unclear that I still don't know how it's done -- I just clicked around until they appeared. The way the game is executed is odd. It's like it's supposed to be played in a few different ways -- sometimes while talking to the same person -- but there's no indication that the game mode has changed.

Not a bad game, slow. The game premise is pretty good. What drove me completely crazy was there was no option to “continue” during dialogue scenes. I had to sit there and wait for the dialogue to finish before moving on. A continue option would be great for those of us who can read the captions quickly.

Pretty good game. I like that the story line is a murder mystery, not one with ghouls and demons. What I don’t like is the mini games. Like all Eipix games, the puzzles are complex but the instructions are minimal. I have to skip some as it’s not clear what the goal is or how to achieve it.

❤️❤️❤️❤️. I absolutely love this game!! All the games by Big Fish are the best! Thank you

Awesome!. Soo good! So long! Zero complaints!

Naahhh just ok. Back and forth, back and forth. Good story line, but muddy graphics and just wanted it to be over.

Dead Reckoning : Broadbeach. Story line is ok, but not enough things to search in per room. But it does keep me interested

No gory occult horror. It’s so refreshing to find a game by Big Fish that isn’t focused on the occult and super gory horror. I would love to see more games like this, and more fantasy as opposed to horror. Come on Big Fish!

Worth it. No issues, challenging minigames, original story, nice detailed graphics

Good but weak story. I still don’t know who the murderer is, there’s an abrupt arrest at the end of the main game, but that’s it. Then the bonus game doesn’t deal with the murder at all, instead it’s about insurance fraud. This is obviously an older Eipix offering. No morphing items in hos, which their more recent games have. Graphics are okay. Hos are list with interactive elements. Mini games are simple. Worth a play on sale, but wouldn’t buy at full price.

Won't play. Can't even get past the Player Name screen. On any of my devices. So. No.

Problems setting player name. It is not allowing me to set my name. I even tried using "Player" and still nothing happens.

It’s Not a Mystery to Me. Hard to maintain interest in this story. Mini games are confusing and not well explained, not much fun. Game prevents you from playing the way you think it should go, must follow programmed sequences.

Broadbeach Cove. The map is useless and sometimes it’s hard to get to we’re you’re supposed to go. It game doesn’t tell what you’re to collect. I’ve only collected stuff by accident. The graphics are OK; the storyline is OK, too, but too much back & forth. Update: As for the map, don’t use; tap the “shoe” icon and it gives you the name of areas you might need to go to. To collect items, you have to look for a thing that, I guess, resembles a tv remote or cordless phone and it’s sort of grayed out. I stand by the 3 star rating because I had to delete the game and start over again - at the point of using the electric saw to cut the box open to get the hook (Ch 5 and 2 pages from the Bonus game), the saw would not do what it was supposed to do so I couldn’t get the hook to attach it to the rope. Therefore, I couldn’t continue with the game! Bummer! Update 2 - had to delete again - CH 5, I was to play the HOP for the “number tile” and the HOP just disappeared!!! Since I couldn’t go on with the game, I had to delete and start over! I like this game and would like to complete it, but at this rate, I just don’t know if I ever will.

You can create name read this. Enter name the instead of hitting enter or button at bottom of badge, instead hit the word create at the top of badge. It's stupid but it works.

Ok game—just ok. The truth/lies parts are very annoying. Otherwise, the game was not too hard, not too easy.

Absolutely loved it!. Great game! I wanted to visit the resort, lol. Perfect graphics, storyline just dynamite. Like a real detective novel with plot twists and turns in an interactive way. Glad to be free of the occult stuff which I do not like or buy!

Hated It!!. This game was way below my expectations. I deleted it almost immediately. Don't buy! Waste of time and money..

Profile name. I cannot get past the profile name page!! What do I do?

Really good, even the story. Loved it. The actual mystery was good, the puzzles were fun, the characters were well done with decent voice work. The bonus chapter was not skimpy and rushed like so many, although the bonus chapter was hard to navigate. The music was not so overwhelming that I had to turn it off. There was a little bit of hiding three things within three caches inside the same object (which I find lame) but not much.

💥💥Can't Enter Player Name? Try This!💥💥. Greetings, Gamers: 👄 Not my review but answering an SOS about the name entry screen. I too had the same issue and almost gave up in frustration. Neither the accept or cancel buttons would light up for acceptance to proceed or cancel and tapping both resulted in nothing happening but an INCREASE IN MY BLOOD PRESSURE🤒 So I tried tapping the sheriff badge itself and eureka! There's gold in them that hills, Jed Clampett! 😂 That worked for me...or was it a happy fluke? Hope it works for y'all...or a happy fluke happens to y'all too. And a happy new year to boot! Game review to come later. 🤓💋

Major problem. This game won't allow you to input your name, and won't go forward until you do! Duh! I finally got it to take, after I kept tapping the page! Deleting and re downloading didn't help. So, I finally got to play. Yawn. Boring. No rhyme nor reason for moving from scene to scene. You need to use the map, which will teleport you. The HO scenes are confusing. The mini games I barely got a taste of. I don't like this series, and this one is the worst of the bunch so far.

Review. So far the games not bad, as for entering your name to create a profile, click on the badge, it goes right to the next step. No problems. They just don't give you enough time to play the game before they ask for a review. I played for 5 mins. Let me finish cams then I'll let you know how it is. But again don't freak out over the profile, just type in your name and touch the badge..

Broadbeach Cove. For starters - Liked to have never got the game started. Player name would not respond. Good voiceovers, lots of interactive game play. Teleporting map which is not always helpful. Some items needed to be found in a particular order. On the brighter side, the graphics were very pleasing to the eye. I am kind of on the fence about this overall game. I felt it was lacking and could have been improved in many areas. Really have had a lot of games lately that have one kind of glitch or another. Not happy about that. Hopefully, some better games are on the way. KdBoots (Being generous 3 stars)

I "Reckoned" That This Would Be Good - I'm "Dead" On!. It is a mystery how some players were able to access and play this game ahead of its actual release; and I already noticed the same for the next game, "Mythic Wonders." The "updated" date for these apps under the description is usually the date of release for each version; and both state Dec. 22, 2016. Both games were released for iPad days later; "Dead Reckoning on Monday, the 26th and "Mythic Wonders" on Thursday, the 29th. In fact, on Wednesday, I was perusing through the BF library for a game to play since the whole library is on sale this week; and I did not see "Mythic Wonders" listed. Then, poof! At 12:00 a.m., Thursday morning, "Mythic Wonders" appears with already submitted reviews. Does anyone have an explanation for this intriguing mystery? On to the game: Get ready for the murder mystery mayhem that this series is known for! It is requested that you investigate the death of a celebrity at a popular resort in Florida. You will make your way around this serene resort, which is embellished with appropriate Caribbean-like flair, such as the expensive yachts drifting gently on crystal-clear waters that are surrounded by lush palm trees; ornately decorated rooms with sparkling and hanging chandeliers; collections of nautical-themed objects stored under lock and key; and large paintings of mythological gods adorning the walls. You will interrogate suspects in a unique fashion; however, I won't ruin your sake of surprise. You do refer to the infamous Evidence Board, which holds your clues and the collected pieces of tangible evidence against each suspect. The graphics are, of course, typically faded and smudgy; they need an adjustment in sharpness and clarity to enhance the many intricate details. The colors are wonderfully light and airy, and they exude a zestful and pacifying ambiance for a change. The inventory is labeled and interactive; items require assembly. No custom settings = pesky sparkles. The teleport map enables seamless transport to labeled locations; however, in second mode, only objectives to be completed are noted. The HOS are interactive and diversified in concept; I love the crafty, inventive ideas applied to the "find and use" format in the doctor's lab. The varied puzzles are integrated into the storyline, such as finding road markers on a tourist map. You have a collection set, which blends very well into the background. Transition is fleeting and smooth; no glitches. In addition to the aforementioned gripes, there are a few other minor complaints. Firstly, the Evidence Board is accessible from under the Menu; and you cannot zoom up on the pieces of evidence after collecting them. In addition, a "back" button would have been beneficial since I found it to be a bit temperamental to return to the prior screen. Furthermore, a journal has been eliminated again; it appears that most developers are following this unfortunate trend. As usual with Eipix, I feel pulled back and forth between the positive aspects, such as the high level of creativity, and the negative aspects, such as the absence of desired features--like custom settings. I would love to rate this 3.5 stars; but due to my predilection toward mystery plots, my rating is 4 stars.

I Spy a Winner. So I saved this game to play until one of the last of a bunch of games I got as I enjoyed the trial version so much. When I first started the trial, I was not expecting to like it too much, but by the end of the trial I was completely enthralled! I love the two scenes where you had to find clues by moving your finger over the screen like a getting colder getting hotter game. I have never seen this before and it was creative and felt that I was actually searching a crime scene. So many mysteries have a pretty obvious culprit and storyline, but this one always stays one step ahead of you. Collecting clues and interviewing people to get lies and truth made this game stand out from any other mystery I've played. Even if they were lying, you still didn't know for sure if they were involved! It really makes you feel that you are actually on a case. Even the shredding of the clues in the HOPs fit in so perfectly with the storyline (love that feature in this and other Eipix games - looks and sounds so satisfying for some reason). If you don't have this game yet, buy it!

Broadbeach. Just bought this game an others and still have the receipt on my email.Now they won’t let me play any off my games because it says I haven’t paid. Guess I’m done with all of these now.

Broadbeach. Haven't played enough

Can't even buy this. I love these games and play a new one every week. I love the Dead Reckoning titles but I couldn't even purchase the full version, which is a shame because the graphics that Eipix puts out are usually pretty rad. Please fix this!

Too Short. I expect a game to last me more the a couple of hours. Thank goodness I only paid $3.99 although it should have been less for the short play time. It was an okay game never the less.

Tip for profile. You have to actually tap the profile button to put in a name

mschill. for those who can't get past profile.after you create your profile click on the badge above your profile

Broadbeach Cove. So far I'm finding this game entertaining but a little confusing too. But overall, I'm enjoying this challenge. As far as getting started I was frustrated too, but found if I clicked the star above profile I could continue.

Dead Reckoning: Broadbeach Cove by LynxMinx. Thank you for all the information, Izzyoc! Note to KimTwilight: I had the same problems with Space Legends as you did! Awful game. I will not recommend it to anyone so hopefully they did not already waste their money! The last few games have been pretty bad so I hope that I enjoy this one! Happy New Year, everyone! This is not my favorite series and I was somewhat underwhelmed by it. It wasn't terrible but it wasn't fabulous either. You cannot customize settings but there are 3 difficulty settings. There is no journal because EIPIX NEVER gives us one but there is a confusing evidence board. Luckily objectives are regularly updated and the storyline was on the simplistic side. The graphics were excellent and there were plenty of locations to unlock. At each you find a hidden symbol, which looked like a tool or microphone. Loading was instantaneous between locations and there was a marked teleport map to transport you, if so chosen under settings. At least the map was an in-game map, as opposed to the evidence board which was stupidly located under the Menu tab. Inventory was labeled and interactive and there were complex items to assemble. There were no morphing objects in the HO scenes, which suited me just fine. The HO scenes had some variation, or you could play a bubble-shoot game (which I detest) instead! There was a variety of puzzles, some of which were boring rotational junk that was unoriginal and a few new ones which I liked. You get to question suspects, as always in this series. The gameplay was quite smooth so I believe they are addressing quality assurance issues! I thought the game was quite short even with the bonus adventure. Oh, and EIPIX even threw in a RAT to annoy me further! Under the Extras section, there was no souvenir room, which we usually get from them. My actual rating is 3.5 stars. I deducted stars for length, lack of a cohesive journal, and the inconvenience of the evidence board, as well as no souvenir room and an unoriginal storyline. In addition the map did not always function properly. It appeared that many players had issues creating their profile, but you have to just tap the badge and don't worry about it further. That was a stupid glitch, EIPIX! Happy New Year to the fabulous DTE, especially (in no particular order) Dracyy, KimTwilight, Izzyoc, Sunshine Susie, Opinion, Catalina, Deana M, Moonbeam Dream and my beloved Snooper. Remember you have made a huge difference in the gaming world, especially this genre! Let us continue our good reviewing in 2017 and eventually BigFish and the other distributors will get it right and we will get higher quality and better games! I wish all other reviewers who support our efforts a wonderful holiday as well! 💋❤😘🎉✨💃🏻🍸🎈👍!

Absolutely Loved It. I have purchased a lot and I mean a lot of games but this one by far exceeded all my expectations. The graphics are wonderful and I liked the fact that the scenes didn't look like they tried to cram so much into it. It wasn't too difficult but yet wasn't too easy. I enjoyed how it all flowed and that I didn't get frustrated at any point. Every item was explained and you didn't have to jump all over the places to solve the puzzles. I'm so excited that there are games out there that are this wonderful. This is the first game of this series I have played so I am hoping the other ones are just as great. Thank you game makers!

Catch the killer. I thoroughly enjoyed this game. The graphics were excellent and the games had something for everyone. Some were easy and some took some thought to play. Only on a couple were the directions difficult to understand. I really like the detective story.

Game. Pretty cool game 😎

Dead Reckoning: Broadbench Cove. Won't even allow me to enter a profile name to begin the game....

Buggy. I can't even get into the game. It brings up the create the profile pop up and I put in a name, hit return and nothing. It doesn't register that I entered anything. It won't let me continue. So can't even try the game.

I Really Enjoyed This Game. The story and the game were fun once I got the hang of things. It has been a while since I truly enjoyed playing a complete game. Also loved it because there were no in-app purchases. I refuse to play games that end up charging me more than they are worth. Again loved this game and I will play it again.

Won't get past sign on. Just downloaded the free trial. I get to the screen to enter my name and it won't go past that.

So Fun!. One of my favorites so far!!

Update. So, I tried the fix that everyone posted and Thank You so much for the information! The game is what I expected. Many of these games rate to me from a 2 to 3.5. I think Big Fish is willing to pump out quantity and not focus on quality. They need better management to fix these issue. If I was to recommend them to new people? No, I would not. There is something very wrong with this game. Can not even make it across the create a profile. The darn thing wont "create" a profile when I enter in a name. I even deleted and reinstalled. This thing is very defective. Guess you didn't want everyone to play!

Tap Profile, not Create to start. Except for this initial glitch with getting started, gameplay has been typical for this type of game and Amusing.

Pretty good. Good story, long enough game play. Some mini games were hard to see, but other than that the game was pretty good

Lots of fun!. For those of you who don't like monsters and scary, creepy themes but still want an engaging story line with varied puzzles--go for it. It was thoroughly enjoyable and a great way to pass a rainy afternoon. You play the role of a detective and the story has a nice twist at the end. The bonus chapter is an epilogue as opposed to the frequent and seldom satisfying "prequel" to the game you just completed. Well done! I look forward to the next in the series.

Disappointed..... Won't allow me to create a profile name to play!

Problems. I can't unlock it either. Come on Big Fish - sort it out

Will not let you purchase. Says purchase fail as soon as you try to buy

Dead reckoning. Great game no problems playing on my iPad love this game

REFUND PLEASE. This is the second time I've purchased this game (the first time I thought it was my fault and that I'd done something wrong) and both times it says no purchase found. This is so disappointing as I've loved all the Dead Reckoning games and was really looking forward to this one. Please give us a refund as it's happened with other games as well and we just don't have the money to throw away. Look forward to hearing from you.

Stuck. Slight problem.... It does not allow you to unlock the game :-(

So disappointed. Can't even get past the point where I enter my name. I've tried reinstalling it and still same problem. What a waste of my hard earned money. Not sure if I'll get anymore games from here again

Big Nanna 65.. Same as other complaints. Will not allow one to unlock the game. This is happening to two other games l would like to play. I have money in my account. Please fix.

Loved it. Unlike other reviews I was able to download, great graphics interesting puzzles great storyline. Length of game play decent love dead reckoning series.

Value deal. Long game in an interesting, realistic scenario. Visuals could be clearer.

Great game. So far so good

Wont let me purchase 😡😡😡😡. Im enjoying it so much but I can't purchase. It just goes straight to "Purchase Failed". But why... you didnt ask my password... apple Id nothing. You BETTER GET THAT FIXED. Or you wont be making a dime.... you should give me a deal for letting you know this right away. Or you would be wondering why a great murder mystery isn't being boughten. Im just saying one good deed deserves another and in the spirit of the holidays and all. I didn't think it would hurt to ask. Ive purchased all of these.

No in-app purchase allowed. Sent tickets to both BFG and Apple Support, Apple Support responded right away, issue lies with BFG. No reply from BFG 5 days later...

Good Stuff. I typically like these games that seem to be mass produced in Eastern Europe. They are very imaginative and stimulate your thinking.

Disappointed. It also won't let me buy the game. It goes directly to "purchase failed" as soon as I press the "Unlock" button. Very disappointing. :( Hope you fix this! I'm looking forward to playing this game!

Doesn't work..... Unable to pass player's profile...Don't you test your applications before going live?

Dead reckoning Broadbeach. Played introductory but unable to purchase, tells me purchased failed. Anyone else? Also game Rite of passage, same message. PLayed the newest Christmas game and no problem to purchase.

Seriously??. This game is on sale because it doesn't work. Boo urns Big Fish. I expect more. Might just delete everything.

Finally fixed??!. You guys finally fix this game in time to sell it for full price! I'm in Canada...so that is $10.00! Not cool Big Fish. And not purchasing. This game was on sale, and it was unplayable and not purchasable. Now that it's fixed, you want full price, and you are already charging too much! Unbelievable.

Dead Reckoning Broadbeach Cove. Won't let me purchase! Wake up there.

Doesn't work.... Won't let you enter player profile, goes nowhere please fix

Not for me. Not enough clues, not enough difference in the graphics (highlighted/sparkles etc) to find what you’re looking for, if you’re not touching the EXACT spot required or dragging your stuff exactly where it may be needed, you’re SOL to use anything in your inventory. Wish I hadn’t paid even the sale price for this one.

Purchase failed. Won't let me purchase!

Quite good.... I felt a little confused during the "interrogations" as to what I was supposed to be doing, so a little guidance would have been nice. Graphics were a little lower grade than many games, but not too bad. What I really liked was the whole story and setting. Such a nice change from all the horror stories that make up so many of these games, with their skeletons and dungeons, etc.

Mickeyboy. Big fish no longer offering iOS players new games. Instead they want us to re buy old ones. Apparently when u buy a game u own it forever. NOT. So buyers Beware. Big Fish. Big RipOff
