Great game by Mad Head. Artwork, sounds, plot: all good. Like eating hot wings, you just can't get enough. (Besides, the characters were so cool!)
I recommend this game!

Excellent graphics, storyline kept you gripped until the end. Could not stop playing. Music was a bit much and I turned it down, but sound effects made good hints. I liked the realistic characters, also. Definitely worth the time and money.

I beta tested this game and saved the shortcut app because I was really impressed by the thought and work that went into this game. The storyline is not my normal type, but as long as there is a mystery I'm all over it. Nice flow, Wonderful graphics. A definite buy!

Downloaded trial, had to buy. Eipix has some of the best opening scenes, just like a movie trailer. The game grabbed my attention from Moment One, and it was hard to stop (do I really HAVE to cook supper?) but my handy sidekick, the dishwasher, will let me get back sooner. Love the opening scene with The Smirk (we'll just brush that dust off-lolol) and get back to business!
I recommend this game!

I say "nay" to the naysayers. This game was well worth the time and money. For those who have to pick it to death, the game is more important if the story keeps your interest and you feel like you are being entertained. The characters had a good fluidity, the graphics were colorful, and the sound track was not annoying nor repetitive. Elephant's reputation in this series is awesome!
I recommend this game!

Even though there was little movement with the characters, they were beautifully done. The dog was cute, too. The story flowed well, the minigames were just right. The "good, bad" werewolves added a nice sidebar to a well written murder mystery. Sure had me guessing!
I recommend this game!

Mad Head does another great game! Twists and turns, and a wolf cub helper (gotta love those animal helpers). This game has enough variations, creepiness, and good minigames to make it feel like you are being entertained as well as solving puzzles. Great build-up here! Artwork extremely well done, as well.
I recommend this game!

Even though the historical value was good, there was little challenge, little to keep my interest, and just a bit boring. It seemed like the HOS was more important than the storyline itself. I will recommend this game only for beginners of the genre since it is so slow-paced and not too many distractions.
I recommend this game!

Another good one from Artifex Mundi! Very well done, am halfway through the game and did not want to stop. HOS can be interchanged with a type of domino game, and the HOS themselves are varied. Storyline flowed well, and the character movements were very realistic and not stiff. I was really amazed with the work they did with the bear's movements and expressions. I like this game!

I liked the game, and really liked how the detective assisting Mrs Pollock was drawn. I understood the motive for the murders, but I will say it was a far stretch. The game was fun to play and very entertaining. I had played the CE version, and will say the bonus game was just the right length, not too short. This is a keeper. I see a sequel . . .
I recommend this game!
