Grayout App Reviews

This game is incredible at delivering words that are not only cleverly written but also presented in a brilliant way that makes the player personally undergo a miniaturized version of the protagonists struggle. Its more puzzle than choose-your-own-adventure, but you will feel more empathy for the lead character than you would in other "interactive fiction". Grayouts greatest achievement is its incredibly successful marriage of mechanics and theme.

This game captures the beauty of word usage and the frustration one can have when words escape us.

Simple in the sense that it is elegant. Excellent in the sense that its a work of art that really has something to say, and has a story to tell. More iOS games like this, please!

I refuse to look up on Google for help.. But Ive been stuck for a month.. Nice while it lasted.

I thoroughly enjoyed it. Well worth the money.

The premise sounded great but actually playing the game is not much more than a frustrating guessing game. The idea is that you are waking up as a patient in a hospital with limited verbal ability and you must express yourself using just the words made available to you. The game is very inflexible in what is considered valid input which turned a promising game into a frustrating one. I would enter phrases that were complete and fit in with the question asked and it wouldnt be accepted. Its sad, too, because it seems like a lot of work was put into making it an engaging story. I just couldnt become immersed in it when I kept getting reminded of the fact that its just a dumb computer that has a limited set of valid input.

Fun to unscramble. Ive played Blackbar too and would be up for any new games from this author!

This is easily better than most app games but that is a low bar. I downloaded this after having loved Blackbar but this was too easy and the challenges felt incredibly redundant. The key to solving many of the puzzles was often trial and error rather than a comprehension of the puzzles rules and mechanics. I felt myself wishfully thinking it would get more difficult but after less than 48hrs I have completed the game.

Great sequel to Blackbar! Looking forward to more games like this in the future.

This game, like Blackbar, is something new and different. I love word games so I had to try them both. The downer on this one is you cannot turn off the music, very annoying. Its very hard. Two questions in and I found myself stumped for two days.

This was a challenging, interesting game and I found the storytelling to be very effective. Uneven at times but its so rare to see real innovation and artistry in storytelling in games, Im always happy when I do.

Well designed and thought out. I tried this after loving Blackbar. Looking forward to more from Mrgan LLC
