I really thought this game would be a good one, it looked excellent and the start of the game was good, but then there are no instructions on what to do or how to play the game, nothing zip zero nada.
The player is left trying to figure everything on their own, a little guidance would make a big difference

I only played the demo version, but wow this game has so much to offer, I love it.
It can also be a very good teaching game as well, there is one temple that requires the person to pick tiles that add up to a certain number, so if they show you 15 you have to pick two tiles that equal 15 and so on, and if they show u a two no you can not just pick the number two tile :-)
There is also a sliding one that I really don't like and it is quite a mind-bender, so it is not just the typical match tiles type of mahjong at all, there is so much more to offer.
Love it will be getting this one.

I would have given this 5 stars but I found the objects very very difficult to find on some screens almost impossible, but this is not just your average find hidden objects game, this also has jigsaw puzzles, and spot the differences.
It also allows you to go back to a scene if you have not found the cats in the picture.
The music was annoying so I turned it off, the sound was good.
There is no storyline so no marks for that.
I would get this game as a freebie or when I have extra credits.

This game was a lot of fun, the hidden objects were not too hard to spot, yet not so easy as to make it not a challenge.
The other puzzles were just as fun to complete.
I like the idea we can choose our difficulty level, the graphics were very clear and nice.
Overall a great game this game would be good as a standard or even the collectors would be a good one, my review is based not the standard version.

This was a fun game, but I found some of the items almost impossible to see. I had to use the hint a lot, something I don't usually have too.
The graphics were not that great, but nice enough. I wouldn't say I liked the music, so I turned it off.
I wouldn't buy it, but it might be okay as a free game.

I am basing my review on the demo, I mostly tried the game because of the rave reviews, but I am not in agreement with the ones that say how fantastic the game is and the visuals etc., sure it is a good game, the graphics are also good, but fantastic? No, there are a lot more games out there that are better.
Yes, the game is good, the visuals too are good, but no, I would say they are average, not fantastic, the play factor is fun, the items are not too hard to find, and the voice-overs are ok as well.
I might buy it if there was a sale, but I wouldn't rush out and buy it.

I was going to pass on this one because of the low reviews but took a chance and tried it for my self, I am glad I did because it is actually quite fun.
I didn't like the music so I turned it off, which is not unusual as I am not a big music fan.
There is no storyline, which is fine.
The graphics/pictures are great, nice and bright.
The puzzles are a good challenge, I like the idea of earning coins than using the coins to buy more puzzles.
All in all a lot of fun, don't listen to the low reviews take a chance down load the demo and try it out for your selves, I am sure you won't be disappointed.

I enjoyed the game, the only thing I really did not like was the voices, they sounded tinny, and really annoying, almost like they were talking through a broken tape recorder or something.

I really enjoyed the game.
The hidden objects scenes were clear enough to find everything yet they were not too easy to find, just the right amount of challenge.
The puzzles were challenging only because some did not have directions on what was to be done or how to do them.

I liked the game, there is no real storyline, but the screen was nice and bright, easy to see the objects and there is a magnifying glass that allows one to get close to examine items.
I also especially loved the history that they tell in between scenes
