I really enjoyed this! There's lots to do; didn't skip many puzzles, and it took me over 6.5 hours with the bonus game. It's clever and intriguing, liked the music, the story, and it wasn't impossible or hideously easy. I don't think most gamers would find it the least bit disappointing. I really enjoyed it all the way through. The bonus round took almost two hours and also had an excellent ending.
I recommend this game!

A very creepy atmosphere beautifully rendered. For those who are worried about the HO scenes being too dark, you can actually adjust the screen brightness right from the options menu.
Really enjoyed this game...plenty of extras you never see in a standard game: wallpapers, built-in strategy guide.
The story line is fairly standard, but no disappointment with the end.
The music is excellent, and the sound-effects were perfect.
There are some deliciously tense moments and plenty of surprises--even beyond those wonderful (but challenging) morphing objects.
One of the best games I've played in years.
I recommend this game!

This game from Vogat was a big surprise: I usually loathe hidden object games because they've become so static-- but this game utilized them very well: excellent graphics (reminiscent of the fantastic MCF series--especially the Ravenhearst games from BFG) and the pacing of the game was excellent with lots of puzzles and a solid story line.
