As the game started I didn't think I would be playing for long, however I found I really enjoyed playing this game.
Graphics are good and the odd scare here and there picks this game right up.
The story line is fine and easy to follow. Lots to do which kept me so interested. The HO scenes were pretty clear and the hint re-loaded quite quickly. The music is well suited and not to intrusive either. This is a good game.
Its a buy for me soon as the May month rolls round.
I recommend this game!

This game took ages to load the first screen, then the story started in black and white pictures.
On playing the game itself, the graphics were ok but the music was annoying. The story line was nothing new and I found myself wondering if this is a really old game?
It just seemed so simple and nothing was difficult about it.
I prefer something to get my teeth into, and this game just didn't do it for me so its a no buy.
I don't recommend this game.

This is a fantastic game, visually great, story line is also very good. The graphics are also excellent and clear.
Trying to spot the morphing objects is a welcome added extra.
Game play is great with interesting mini games too.
I played the full demo and will certainly be filling my punch card with this one.
It held my interest for the full hour, which just sped by.
Its a sure buy for me.
I recommend this game!

Good background graphics,nice enough game with a mixture of HO and solitaire, but and its a big But!!!
I found having to use the added items, the duster,spray can and key annoying that you can only them on one card at a time?
As a game its not difficult even for a youngster, but not worth buying as its mega short.
Sorry, not for me.
I don't recommend this game.

Played the demo for 20 mins and was struggling to see what's good about this game?
Nothing about it held my interest, so basic and boring.
A no buy for me.
I don't recommend this game.

This game has it all, great graphic's, good story and just that wee bit different.
This game just keeps flowing along and I gave a big aweee when the demo ended. Spooky story line, clear pictures and plenty to do.
A bit of interaction with puzzle within puzzles, and differences that kept me engrossed for the full hours demo.
I like this game a lot, but will have to wait for April to buy as my punch card is full.
I recommend this game!

Too dark in places, too difficult to find HO, too long waiting for hint recharge. I was bored very quickly with this game, and yes the language made it even more difficult to work out what the item was. A def no buy for me.
I don't recommend this game.

This game has it all for me.
Graphics are all clear, story line is very good, just everything about this game is so good. The mini games are Just different enough to make you think a wee bit more.
Well worth the Friday CE.
I would certainly buy this today, except I used a credit to buy game 4 for this month, so I will have to wait for now. Roll on April is all I can say.
I recommend this game!

Spent 10 minutes trying this game.
Spent 8 Minutes reading the bottom of the screen again and again.
Inane chit chat popped up every time I clicked any item.
Boring and uninteresting, def a no buy for me.
I don't recommend this game.

I enjoyed this game very much, in fact was sad it was over.
The graphics, the sound, the game play,and the story line all kept my attention. So much so that I finished it long before I wanted too, and even burnt quit a bit of midnight oil. (no pun intended)
A very good game and I give it 10 out of 10.
I recommend this game!
