Game was focused, not too difficult, and easy to maneuver around. Not too many HOS and well varied. Main menu was quite creative. Hint and ship buttons recharged in a reasonable amount of time. Not much back and forth, and the map area was relatively small. A nice afternoon of relaxation. Will we see another Redemption? I hope so.
I recommend this game!

The original cut scene was stiff, the main menu lead me nowhere, and the ability to navigate was --like--okay, what did I do wrong? I downloaded twice thinking maybe it was me, I was so disappointed because the other Sherlock Holmes games were so cool. This one was a total dead end for me. I will try for a third time, but do not recommend this version at this time.
I don't recommend this game.

Opening cutscene grabbed my interest! Very clear what the mission was, and kept me intrigued until I unfortunately had to exit to feed the animals (and make supper). Quite interesting, kind of like "Pirates of the Carribean" meet "Jessica Fletcher" without Skrillex and Deadmau5 making the background music (so sad). With games like this, I see the Devs going far. If the Devs keep making this kind of game, I may sell the farm so I can play full time!

Sorry, but did not care for the storyline. If it weren't for the hint button there would be no direction to this game. The sparkling "prehints" that actually show you where the item you need is was a no-brainer. Ghosts? What made them appear all of a sudden? I will say the HOS weren't too bad, though. The artwork was decent, although lack of voiceovers was awkward. The journal reading like a novel was different.
I don't recommend this game.

All games/ hos were a breath of relief! I am tired of finding the same things over and over. Story line was good, twist and turns were suspected, but popped at later in the game than you would expect. Minigames, and those with circles was a cool difference. I actually enjoyed this game throughout it's entirety. This is the second installment I played. Is there going to be a fourth? Pandora, let me tell you my sister and I used to fight just like you--but now we are best friends!

I like a good mystery, and this one wasn't bad. With the gamee setting in a decrepit abandoned mall that still had living potted plants, working equipment, and merchandise still in the stores, this would have been a teenager's fantasy.
(I bet the devs have teenage kids, huh?) I didn't really understand what the tarot cards really had anything to do with the game, but, they made a bit of a red herring.

I was disappointed in this game. I had high hopes it would be different. Although the hint button worked quickly and well for directional use, I was not impressed with the same "elements" such as locked boxes, overly crowded HOS,
and too easy minigames. The artwork was done very well, but on the HOS the red writing was almost impossible to read. This game lacked imagination and creativity.

Good story line, not too scary for the younger crowd, and great for a beginner. The beginning was interesting, but the fooling of the mother a bit lame. The HOS were pretty clear, and I really liked the opening player scene with the flashlight going to "play" or "options", etc. That was creative. Each room had a different set of music, so it was kind of a help knowing where you were without a map. Overall, a nice day's gameplay.

Another fun Puppet Show with the cutest little squealing head for a helper. So different than the "Chuckie" head that was constantly trying to destroy everything to slow you down. Nice plot with a twist when you least expect it. nice variety of mini games, too. A couple of the HOS were a bit dark, and hard to find some things, though. Overall, an enjoyable game.

Surprise ending on this one. Hint button worked well as a guide. Lots of snow and ice in this one so, living in Florida, I had to wear my sweater while playing this game (kidding). Nice music, interesting storyline with a bit of betrayal thrown in for good measure.
I recommend this game!
