I was looking for one more standard edition to fill my punchcard and this one seemed to fit the bill. I like asylum settings fairly well, and this one has a built-in strategy guide!
But after struggling through many Hidden Object scenes that are just too dim, I ultimately decided against. Perhaps the developers do this to add to the challenge, but I don't enjoy scenes where the objects are either so well-blended with the background they are practically invisible, or are so small and unrecognizable that they can't be identified.
This just makes it frustrating and definitely not fun, in my opinion.
A map would be helpful, too, but the lack of one wouldn't prevent me from purchasing the game. Just those darn, dark Hidden Object scenes that turn me off.
I don't recommend this game.

I got hooked on this game right away.
It has very little to do with vampires, which was fine by me.
The FROGs are a nice change of pace.
Nothing is all that new, here, but I found it fun and addicting.
I recommend this game!

For whatever reason, I could not get into this game. The storyline was dull, a lot of the areas to explore look too similar, way too much back-and-forthing for my taste, inventory items that are picked up rather randomly, and a general sense of not knowing where to go next.
Overall, it was just okay.
(But if you like Hidden Object scenes, there are a lot of them!)
I don't recommend this game.

With no instructions, no skip feature, no walk-through, and "help" that has to be earned by constantly clicking on flying fireflies, I was very frustrated.
Got stuck on the very first page, and although I really did enjoy the artwork, life is just too short for this.
I don't recommend this game.

I was pleasantly surprised by how much I loved this game.
Gorgeous graphics, soothing music, lots of different areas to explore, tasks that made sense, a compelling storyline...I could go on and on.
And it's laid-out so well, I never got lost.
There were only a couple of inventory items where it wasn't obvious what they should be used for. Otherwise, very logical.
The length of the main game is more than adequate, and the bonus chapter is longer than usual!
All the extras are great, including access to all the hidden objects scenes and puzzles to replay.
I wish I could give this one more than five stars! It deserves ten!
I can't wait for the next installment!
I recommend this game!

Nicely done. The tasks and inventory item usage are logical and advance the storyline.
What I really liked was that near the end, when you finally escape, the game doesn't just abruptly end. There are still some things you need to do before making your getaway.
I also liked the hint at the very end of things to come.
This is how you make a winning series. I look forward to the next installment.
I recommend this game!

Once again, a great game is ruined by being too short. There are lots of things to like about this one, well-covered by the other reviews.
Just want to express my disappointment in the length. I'm sure the developers become exhausted toward the end of the process of creating a new game.
But regular purchasers of games would like a "little something extra" at end to feel like we really got our money's worth.
This would have been a five-star game if only it were a little longer.
I recommend this game!

I used a coupon code for this and don't regret it, although the game is quite easy and a bit too short. But it's fun, with some unique puzzles.
Kids would probably like this, or someone who just wants a quick, relaxing game.
You have to find smaller objects that make up larger objects. Not fragmented pieces, though, for the most part.
One caveat: if you exit before finishing the "level" you are on, you will lose your progress. Wait until you see the brother character again, and then you'll know your progress will be saved.
I recommend this game!

This game was just so-so, in my opinion. The things I didn't like about it were:
Usage of Inventory items was not always logical or apparent.
Too much back-and-forthing to get and use Inventory items.
Way too many Hidden Object Scenes. These are often triggered by use of an Inventory item and become a tiresome pattern.
Hidden Object scenes are not clear and seemed junkish.
Mini-games are either very easy or very difficult.
The Hint button gives away too much information. I'd rather just be pointed in the right direction, not told exactly where to go and what to do.
Nothing about it was "fun".
The storyline didn't grab me.
I don't recommend this game.
Take a wild ride into terror and trickery to rein in a ghostly secret! Discover the truth from the ghost stories before it's too late!

This is way too old-school for me. The navigation is clunky. You walk around a lot not knowing what you are doing. Too much dialog that you can't skip over. No Hints button. You are supposed to figure out what to do by having endless conversations with people, and then they want you to read a really long book about horses. Not my cup of tea.
I don't recommend this game.
