The story starts with two magician wanting to be The World's Greatest Magician. The good versus evil man or in this case, magician theory. Excellent idea for a game.
The hidden objects aren't that hard to find. The game however has the worst graphics I've seen in a long time. Mainly the hidden object games are done in deep sepia tones. Very Victorian in style. Which is what I think the gaming designers were going for with every scene done in sepia tones throughout the game. So hard on the eyes for the hidden object games and for the game in general.
The sound 'music' if you can call it that, is robotic and sounds more like tearing sheet metal then music. And it goes on forever.
Storyline?! What storyline?! The game really could have had a great story. Had it not been so 'Slap-Dash' written.
There's nothing wrong with 'Old School' concepts in today's games providing the gaming designers use 21 century technology. The gamers of today are more sophisticated with high-end technology and devices used in their games. Truthfully as gamers we deserve better from our games and from the gaming designers themselves. Not this 'Milk Toast Mush' served on a Victorian platter.
Let's not insult gamers with poorly thought out and designed games.
It's too bad. This game had so much potential in it's starting idea. In my honest opinion, the game as it stands now, was so poorly thrown together, it isn't worth a demo run.

I love all kinds of solitaire games. This game is not only a solitaire game, it offers Hidden Object Games throughout. Though good, not a very challenging solitaire game. (If that's what you like.) The sound and graphics are bright, crisp and clear. Without lags or glitches.
It's like Solitaire just married Hidden Object Games...Brilliant idea! Worth a try.
Happy Gaming!

A solitaire game set in the style of Mickey Spillane's Mike Hammer! It's just plain fun!
If you're looking for a challenging solitaire game, this really isn't that challenging. However, if you're looking for a relaxing solitaire game with funny dialog, this game might be for you.
I found the sound and graphics excellent, bright and without lag and glitches.
A good game, but not very challenging.
Storyline and dialog, off the chart cute, funny and very relaxing!
I bought both games, (Crime Solitaire and Crime Solitaire 2.) In my honest opinion, Crime Solitaire 2 is 10 times better then the first Crime Solitaire. Definitely worth a try.
Happy Gaming!

I loved the first Trade Mania. But Trade Mania 2 is so much better. If you've ever played and love Monopoly, you'll find Trade Mania 2 far more challenging and fun. Fast paced and highly addictive, with good graphic and sound.
This game really rocks!

If you're an experienced chess player, you probably will find this game a bit boring and might reconsider buying this game. For those just starting out in the world of chess, this game provides some good learning tools.
It features good graphics and sound. A number of chess set styles to choose from.
I recommend this game if you're a beginner to intermediate player.

I'm not much for cartoonish silly games. Pirate Solitaire surprised me. It's a quirky, cute, funny little game set to 'Pirate' music. Large in-your-face graphics with colors that really POP out at you. There are 3 mini games that are fun. Just a nice relaxing game of solitaire for all ages, especially for beginners.
The only down side to this game, the voice over may become annoying after a time.

Shut the front door and lock it! This game is incredible in every aspect! I didn't bother with the free trial on this one. Just watched the video short and knew this game's for me! It's wonderfully bone chilling to the very end! You'll find yourself so taken into the storyline, HOG's, puzzles and real-time actors, that you'll forget the time! So many treats lie in store!
Thank-you Lesta for such an amazingly, highly addictive, engrossing game!
For me, I think this game is more desirable played late at night preferably with an up and coming thunderstorm!
Two Thumbs Up And Highly Recommend This Game!

Look out, Texas Hold 'Em & hold onto your hats! Mosey on up, Partners, & give this game a try! I loved the first Governor Of Poker, and of course bought it. But this game is far better then the first one. More 'Rootin' Tootin' fun from your old favorite 'Hat' characters! Well worth the wait & money.
I recommend this game!

I love the graphics. music & of course, the Zombies. Neat items to buy at the 'store' to help you throughout your Zombie Card Attack Missions. Good Zombie weapons are a strategy must for this game! This is truly a funny & delightful solitaire game! A must have for your solitaire collection!
