A soft release, Cruel Collections is an unexpectedly lengthy game with a gazillion hidden objects and other puzzles to solve. As a veteran player, I shamefully skipped a few puzzles.
A very good game especially if you're bored with so many fright-related story lines in the past several years that are getting bolder and with magical potions to brew.
Fair warning, pack a big suitcase as your time at The Any Wish Hotel is going to be a long stay and busy stay.
Enjoy! -Mama Mia-

How many times do I play a game more than once? Rarely, unless the game is extraordinary as this! I still could not get all the "mistletoes" and "mosaics" even after playing twice!
If I could rate 10 STARS, this game deserves! Played like a large file adventure game, yet, with wonderfully rendered hidden object scenes! Cut scenes, voice overs, acting--all superbly done!
Now, let's get to the story line and the artwork--two words--genius and talent. Oh, and hard work and dedication!
Bravo! Well done!
Bravo! Well done!
Looking for a sequel and would have loved that game as a Collector's Edition. For once, I was truly interested in reviewing the cut scenes again, re-playing the puzzles. hidden objects and music!

Not the best Midnight Mysteries, however, enjoyed playing this relaxing sequel.
Unique story line with puzzles that were fairly easy and puzzles that were challenging so there was a good mix.
After a ridiculously long work day, looked forward to relaxing with a good book--I mean a good game--and this one fit the bill. Some parts were a bit gruesome so that surprised me a little.
Best part was that I could easily pick back up in the game the next day after signing off for the night.
Enjoy! -Mama Mia-

Wow! What was that? An electrified zombie? Made immediate purchase with a BFG game credit. Hope that counts for developers.
Minus the bells and whistles, this beautifully rendered game stands on it's own with magnificent artwork, bold bright colors and a mystery to unfold. I would have liked to see more length in each scene and that is a compliment!
Spectacular artwork and spellbinding music, game flows smoothly and quickly with no issues. Interactive map, a navigation icon and the hint system works quickly and efficiently.
From the makers of Millennium Secrets--Emerald Curse and Rosanne's Necklace, gamers should check out those games as well.
A Big Fish Thanks to Fineway Studios and Jet Dog Studios, you guys did a great job! Looking forward to seeing more games in the near future.
Enjoy! -Mama Mia-

Took a while to play so apologize for the late review. HOWEVER, just by the overwhelming reviews, gamers can conclude this is a game worth playing and has earned a solid five-star rating!
Whoever did not leave five stars did not play the entire game. Demos are deceiving and can work for or against. Often times we get a terrible game that looks great in the demo. Here, the game starts out so-so and builds to extraordinary!
The music, story, artwork are all first class and magnificently rendered. One of those rare and great games that will stand the test of time throughout the years.
A final note without rehashing other reviews--did you ever dream of riding on the back of a flying dragon? Well, here's your chance! Enjoy! -Mama Mia-
I recommend this game!
Another bloodcurdling tale ripped from the pages of history. This time, the horrifying legend of Elizabeth Bathory is yours to discover!

I'm sure some players may have been put off with the tarot cards and brewing potions, however, when you dealing with the evil that the Countess has unleashed, you, the player are more than happy to find the ingredients and get those potions ready pronto!
Game length was long and I was almost put off at the beginning because it's somewhat different. Hang in there as gamers will experience a really good fright game. I thought it was absolutely foreboding as well as frightening. Possibly playing at night with the lights out didn't help any, however, work is a must during the day time so night it is for most of my gaming time where one gets the full effect of this well-planned and well-thought out game.
Don't allow anyone to discourage you from playing this really good game--especially yourself. Enjoy! -Mama Mia-

Not too heavy on the educational side with puzzles that were fairly easy. Game had a good length and was worth the CE price--on a good BFG sale--of course!
So relieved and pleased to play a game different from the rest--all with practically the same story. Yes, story! Smithsonian Castle has a great story that evolves and unfolds and brings the gamer to a reasonable conclusion where every loose end is tied neatly together.
Enjoy! -Mama Mia-

Took a while for me to actually get started, however, just finished this game and it was totally magnificent from story line, puzzles, objects, voice overs, cut scenes, artwork, music. I could go on an on, the game was very enjoyable.
Each time I started playing for some reason, I got distracted. That was my loss. Glad I went back to it as it's now one of my favorites. The Bonus Game is just as great and blends very well to the main story.
More, more, more! Bravo!

Enjoyed this Phantasmat sequel. Worth the wait. Even though the usual story of a first scene car accident and a disappearance, the spooky atmosphere is attention grabbing. A mysterious and unfolding plot/story line follows and is a must for any game worth mentioning.
Dark and dreary with appropriate sound effects and time era hidden objects, will add "The Endless Night" to an ever-growing BFG Game Library!
Enjoy! -Mama Mia-

An older style game with lots of HOP's and a great story line--which is a lot more than I can say for many over-rated tinsel and sparkle games we gamers are constantly barraged.
So, who said, "The world is a critic?" :))

You have been hired to repair a great clock which holds secrets in an old mansion that holds even more secrets.
Purchasing game today! I have a BFG credit. Yay! Can't wait to get back and find out what happened to the Magnificent Seal. Enjoy! -Mama Mia-
