One of the coolest games I've ever played! Incredible graphics! Unique scenes! Amazing new puzzles! Super long gameplay! Not boring for an instant!
Simply incredible from start to finish. You really get your money's worth with this one. And then some! When I compare this with some of the run-of-the-mill games I've purchased, well, there is no comparison!
The creativity that went into this just blows my mind! I can't say enough good things about it, and the developers who went the extra mile to bring us something truly one-of-a-kind.
A must-have!
I recommend this game!

This game is enjoyable enough, but not much of a challenge. Basic tasks, easy puzzles, and I completed it in just a few hours. This might be a good one for kids or for beginners. There's nothing scary or graphic. I did like that it wasn't frustrating in any way. But I expected more.
I don't recommend this game.

I really loved the bright colors and cute animals in this game. Appreciated that there was not endless back-and-forthing. Hidden Object Scenes were varied, some with lists and some with outlines and interactivity.
I wish there had been a few more puzzles/mini-games. It felt too short. Had it been longer, I would have given it five stars all the way.
I recommend this game!

I recently started replaying some of my old games, including this one, and I was struck by the very high quality of this game.
Very good mix of hidden object scenes, adventure tasks, and colorful puzzles that are challenging without being too hard.
If you've missed this one, give it a try. You won't be disappointed.
I recommend this game!

When this game starts out, you think it is going to be something very unusual, with "botanical" challenges that differ from the usual types of games.
Unfortunately, after about the first third of the game, all that ends and it becomes little more than a below-average adventure game.
I did like the bright colors, and the hidden object scenes, of which there are not many, were more interesting than usual. But that's about it.
The mini-games were either incredibly easy or incredibly hard. Not much middle ground.
And the game is too short for my money. Only took a few hours to complete.
What a shame.
I don't recommend this game.

I was able to complete all levels in a day or two, with three stars in all but a couple of levels. I much prefer the Royal Envoy model, where you start out in Regular mode and go through 60 or so levels before you have access to Expert mode. This one only has 39(?) levels and once you've done your best on each, you are done. Since new TM games are few and far between, I'd still recommend this one if you have a credit or are completely bored. It will keep you busy for a few hours.
I recommend this game!

This has the potential to be a good game, but there are some major flaws.
First off, it seems like it was developed in a language other than English. The verbiage and stated goals don't always make sense.
Once you hit level 15 or so, you have to go back and get "Expert" on almost every previous level before you will be allowed to move on.
So if you want to have a relaxing game, this isn't it.
The time it takes to load materials is too long and really annoying.
Construction time is nearly as bad.
Save yourself some grief and skip this game.
I don't recommend this game.

This game in no way compares to the Royal Envoy and Build-A-Lot time management games. There is very little strategizing that needs to be done, and each level is just more of the same tasks, over and over again. Very boring.
I don't recommend this game.

This would have been a buy for me, except for the long time it takes for Hints and Skips to fill up.
I recently purchased a different game where you are allowed to custom set the recharge lengths. This is something I'd like to see with every game in the future.
With this one, the Hidden Object Scenes are too muddled for my taste, and waiting around for Hints to refill is not my idea of fun.
The mini-games employed diagrams to explain what needed to be done, which wasn't enough instruction for me, in some cases. And again, sitting there waiting for the Skip to fill is not enjoyable.
Were it not for the excessive wait times, I would have bought this one, for sure. There are a lot of cool things about it.
Developers, please treat the players like adults and let us determine how we want to use Hints and Skips.
Thank you.
I don't recommend this game.

This is based on the SE, not Collector's.
A fun FROG that surprised me with how good it was. You get a good number of different locations to explore and the storyline is well-developed.
Tiny bit shorter than I'd like, but that seems to be the case with FROGs. Plus, you get access to replay the hidden object scenes once you're finished.
Really enjoyed shooting at bad guys, but that part got a little old by the end of the game.
Definitely worth a coupon code or buying on sale.
I recommend this game!
