Not sure what the other reviewers liked about this game. I love Match 3 games; however, this one seems like it came from the 90's. Graphics were not good, didn't try the sound so can't comment on that. The game wouldn't even open full screen, which was a huge turn-off. The one good thing I can say about the game is that it does have a "Relaxed" option which is always a plus.
The game itself was just Ok. No wow factor whatsoever. I might have actually bought this game, however, except for the fact that there was no "Relaxed" mode. What they consider Relaxed mode still only has a specified number of moves you can make. When I play a game, I do it to relax, not to be in a huge rush and not to have to think about every single move I make. Due to this, I would not recommend this game to those of us who play to relax.
I don't recommend this game.

I just do not like games that you absolutely have to be on a timer. I sometimes like the challenge of a timer but other times just want to de-stress and have no timer! Why they even make games where you can't choose for yourself whether you want that timer or not is exasperating. I refuse to buy a game that only has a timer. Please start serving all gamers and not just part of them!
I don't recommend this game.

This is a great little TM game that is very similar to Roads of Rome, MKFTP, Island Tribe, etc. This game does have an option to play with a time limit and also an option for no time limit which I love because I like to play in Relax Mode. I have been waiting for another game such as this to come out and am very excited that one finally has. It is definitely up there with my top games. Thanks Big Fish and keep them coming.
I recommend this game!

This was one of the most interesting games I have ever played. What happens at the end left me with my mouth wide open. I very much enjoyed this game and did not find it either too hard or too easy. There were times when I had to use the hint but not too often. I can't wait to play the sequel and have already bought it too without even playing the trial. This was because I am so interested in finding out what happens next. Way to go developers, you did an awesome job on this storyline. Love it.
I recommend this game!

The graphics were great, the music was good and the fun factor was awesome. I love this type of Hidden Object/Adventure game. The storyline was also great. Bought this and enjoyed it. I do wish it had been a little longer but overall no complaints.
I recommend this game!

I was very happy to see another TM game as I feel there is never enough coming out. This game was really good and would have been 5 star awesome except for the fact that you can't play the relaxed mode until you have a lot of points built up. Personally, I play games to relax so having games that doesn't have that option or doesn't have it right up front is not going to get the highest rating from me. If this was fixed, it would definitely be a 5 star game.
