How do I dislike this game? I won't count the ways, I'll just say life is too short to waste any of it playing this game. Archaic graphics, clunky interactions, strange point grading system. The only good thing about it is the storyline. This game is not up to the quality I've come to expect from BigFish!
Will not start Chapter 11 after Chapter 10 completion

This is a review I really hate making, since the subject is so close to my heart. However, even after uninstalling and reinstalling, this game will not advance past Jesus healing the multitudes, Chapter 10. The chapters past that are shown as existing, but they all remain locked. If you want the complete story, sadly I don't recommend this game as it stands right now.
I really can't rate the playability of this game because it won't boot past the Domini logo. I have uninstalled and reinstalled this game 3 times with the same result. I envy those above who have actually been able to play it, since it seems I'll never get to do it. Uninstalling again...

This game is challenging enough to keep my interest, but easy enough to keep me from getting frustrated: Goldilocks Zone LOL I've seen better graphics (tho its graphics are very good), but the storyline is excellent, and I really cared about and rooted for the characters! Unlike many games I've bought lately, it's easy to determine what to do next and how to do it. That critical need seems absent from many games. As a result, this was a very good purchase!
The Kingdom is in chaos! Lady Sarah, the savior of the kingdom has been poisoned! It's up to you to find the culprit in this exciting hidden object adventure.

This was an interesting, challenging, eventually really frustrating game composed of all puzzles. All puzzles is a great idea... but the NO SKIP BUTTON on the puzzles a player doesn't like is a game-killer for me. I chose the Timeless option because I wanted to relax and work on my visual perception, at my age (74) such games as this are suggested to help do that. So, WHY did you throw a game in where I must play against a computer opponent, with no option to SKIP that particular puzzle?! That is far from "Timeless"!! As a result, I'm dead in the water, since I can't advance any further in the game until I win that puzzle. This game goes in my Dead File, I'm just not up to racing against a computer opponent. For those who have great visual perception skills, I'm sure this is a fun game but, for us older folks who chose it as a fun therapy to help develop their visual perception, I recommend a PASS on this game... at least until they add a SKIP option to their puzzles.
If you want LOTS of HOPs this is the game for you!

This game is almost purely Hidden Object games that are used to advance the upbeat story. Beautifully illustrated, I found it just challenging enough not to lose my interest, but easy enough not to frazzle my nerves. I was looking for a relaxing game with lots of HOPs and this one gave me just that, so I had fun. :) I would definitely recommend this game if lots of HOPs are what you're after.

Just finished playing through Lost Lands: Mistakes of The Past again and it still holds my attention! I have every one of the Lost Lands titles, yet this one is my favorite by far. Compelling storyline, interesting puzzles, great visuals, fun all the way around. If you have a few hours to kill, this game can make for an enjoyable afternoon.
Travel from the deepest trenches of the Atlantic Ocean to the awe-inspiring wonders of Mars as you solve the greatest archeological puzzle known to man: the origin of Atlantis.
Once in a great while a game leaps out of being merely a game and squarely into being a gripping story that happens to be a fun game to play too, Eternal Journey: New Atlantis is one of those rare gems.
From a beginning that seemed to be pretty standard, suddenly the REAL story bursts out and grabs you. From then on you're trapped in the mystery, alone on Mars but for a cat and far too many really yuck, way too big to ignore bug larvae, trying to figure out what the heck happened to all the people who used to fill the clothes you find laying everywhere... and the story doesn't let you go until the end, which is spectacular.
Only thing, I never did really find out why all those clothes were empty, but most of the time I forgot about looking for the computerized info thingies that give you more in-depth. Maybe I'll play it again and try to find all of them, just to flesh out the back-story.
Get this game, if you like solid sci-fi adventure, you'll love it!
This is an entertaining game, but the wait times before you can search for a needed item in a previously searched location are WAAAAAAAYYYY too long! It wouldn't be as hard to take if the primary location to find most needed items wasn't THE SAME PLACE and it has a 30 minute wait interval! A 30 minute wait?! REALLY?! Who decided this was a good idea?
This is a great game to play and then play again. The interface is intuitive, the graphics, though still-frame, are beautifully drawn, and the story pulls you in and doesn't disappoint. A must have for indie RPG fans.
