Even with the lower price, this game is still visually on overkill. I found the levels to be overly busy and almost confusing to play as it was hard to determine where the actual gameplay was because of all the stuff they added in for graphics. Watering trees underwater is weird and the whole storyline comes across as someone's weird dream they had the night before. There are 10 less levels which means your eyestrain is lessened! LOL!
I don't recommend this game.

The mute button comes in very handy during this game! The music sounds like a drunken organist at a ballgame and is horribly loud and annoying. There are some glitches in this game that weren't ironed out in a beat feet attempt to hurry and get it out. It seems like the pointer is always 2 steps behind whatever moves you make and at times, the game will go completely blank for a few seconds. The graphics are cartoonish and not crisp so it makes gameplay hard to see and figure out. Sigh...my tagline...not worth the CE price tag especially with all the glitches..
I don't recommend this game.

Same as the CE release only cheaper. Cartoon graphics, boring gameplay and the same repetitive actions of having to do 3-4 things for one action. Pick the wheat, confirm you want to pick it, water, confirm the water...on and on. Not worth it.
I don't recommend this game.

Oh it was exciting to see a new Rescue game! I dove into this with high expectations and while it is fun and the graphics are well done, it's like levels just keep repeating themselves over and over. The original ones had levels where you were under pressure to rescue people before the fires got them or get meds to them before they froze. This one has not one level of challenge and it's basically run around and clean up oil spills, build weird planet loving factories and feed injured animals hot tea (??). There is no strategy and no challenge.
These new Devs need to go back to the beginning and look at how the early games were put together without the cookie cutter levels. I mean, this is ok what with the 15 bonus levels added but, it's still not the quality it used to be.

Well, this is fun! A refreshing change of pace of late. Great graphics and easy to find objects that aren't crazy small like others. Not your average run of the mill HO game. Different strategies and a Match 3 thrown in. Very well done and worth the coupon!
I recommend this game!

First of all, asking a CE price for this is criminal. There outta be a law against that!
Ok, second...I agree with the previous review that the whole concept of this being underwater is weird with watering trees and crops. That being said, whoever did the graphics on this game must have perfect 20/20 vision and an overactive paint program. There is SO much extra scenery in these levels, you have to really adjust your eyes to zero in on the gameplay, which is so tiny and small, you can't tell what everything is. I know the Devs were going for pretty and colorful but what what they got was overkill and too busy. I mean, seriously...when a new level pops up, you literally have to sit back and stare at it for a minute or two to try and figure out where the game is!!
Nothing is changed except for the extreme colors and subject weirdness. Same pound and run..same as the entire series. Nothing new. NOT CE worthy that's for sure! They should have spent more time putting new features and levels in and less time on the paint explosion!

A total copy and paste of the original ones that are already out. The fact that it's timed was a bummer for me and the graphics are cartoonish. I mean like Sunday comics cartoonish!
The gameplay itself, while being the same pound and run as it's earlier versions, is still fun but this one is visually confusing. There are a lot of useless homes and building crowding the levels that don't do anything but sit there. So, I spent each level clicking on every building to see if it was useful and all it was was added scenery. Glad to see it wasn't a CE price because nothing in this version says CE.
Would LOVE to see developers think outside their boxes and freshen up some of these sequels with new stuff.
I don't recommend this game.
Enjoy fun Match-3 challenges as you upgrade the airport and help Lee become the youngest airport manager in the company’s history!

Another poor offering for adults on this website. This is geared towards the 8-12 groupings.
I don't know what's going on with BF anymore. Their definitely not the same as they were many years ago.

The only difference between this and the CE is a cheaper price. Same dull game play where waiting for resources is like watching paint dry. No untimed mode..same basic run, pound and collect. I guess if you're into that than this at a lower price is ok. I just found it boring!
I don't recommend this game.

I SO wanted to like this game because it was new (even though the Dev isn't) and looked good but...
The gameplay is the same pound and run. The bad part is the clicking 2-3 times to do one task! Click on the wheat to pick it, click again to confirm you WANT to pick it, click again to water it, click on the mill to grind it, click AGAIN to confirm the grinding, click AGAIN to sell it and on and on. There are too many moves for one simple action and there are times it gets too overwhelming and confusing.
I would have liked this more with just one click for each action. Not sure why they had to overkill it.
