There is absolutely no story line except repeatedly getting this guy to bed before he absolutely drives you nuts with his incessant yawning. There are a couple clever scenarios (turning tap water into Holy Water was cute) but nothing very challenging. The art is less than grade school level but perhaps that's what they were going for.

why is this game highly rated? It's redundant and boring - the fact that you have to repeat each sequence five times to get all of the "fun facts" keys is simply silly. I never could find a "collectible" and the intro did not tell me what or where they were. Plus there is no Forum help at all on the site.

some levels were discernible within them selves. That is, you could figure out the goals and means by what you saw or discovered in the scene. Others require outside knowledge about ancient gods or math, that was not explained. You had to figure out what they were hinting at and then go find the info. At least tell us what you're after.
Another reviewer was correct in that if your mouse is not up to snuff or you have arthritis you ain't never sinking those basketballs in 9 seconds, and there is no skipping a level once you are in it

I was playing along and decided to not skip the story line -- Ugh. What a bunch of whiners. Some of the most unlikeable personalities I have ever encountered

The very first mini game had a clue that asked me to drop flowers in a "whole" and gave no instructions about the sequencing buttons. Then in the first hidden object scene a brush was actually a comb that looked more like a ladder. All this is just distracting and annoying, so I went no further
I don't recommend this game.

It is plodding, boring and ill conceived. Coincidentally, I had just played the Red Riding Hood Sisters over the week end for the first time in years, and the contrast was depressing.
