No voice over. Graphics are fair. Music can drive you crazzy. The HOS are old school and easy but hard to see because of the light and not full screen. Hint button works but not needed. Have different types of HOS which is different. Not too much for adventure. As I said old type game. Something to do. Demo is about all you want to do.
I don't recommend this game.

The game has no voice over. Music is ok. I do not like the hint button, only says nothing to do here and since you are going all over the place to find items to use you get lost sometimes on where to go next. The HOS are not hard just a little dark to see good. Puzzles are ok.
I recommend this game!

Not a bad game but not great either. Older game. No voice over, graphics are ok could have been full screen. Music is fair. You have to like HOS to like this game. The HOS are good but the items are small and the screen is dark so you really need to look. Has somewhat of an adventure where you need to find thing to advance. Not hard game at all. The puzzles are good some harder than others.
I recommend this game!

I played it because of the maker. They do have good games but not this old thing. Very old type game with no adventure. Just HOS which very which is good. Just nothing else. Small items and hard to find. Not even good for free.
I don't recommend this game.

Thought it may be a fun game but after 15 min I gave it up. It got rather boring. No voice over and lots of reading. Then you click click click and never make any progress. Hint button at best is ok. Has a map. The HOS are ok. I just got tired of clicking and getting no items to use.
I don't recommend this game.

Better than some of there other ones but still not great. Elephant used to put out great ones. No voice over and the graphics are ok. Music is average but get tiring soon. The HOS are good and some are challenging to find them all. Morphine's to find but are easy, real easy. Lots of going all over the place to find things you do not need for awhile. That is the trouble. Too many things to find to keep a good flow going.
I recommend this game!

Elephant games are normally great but lately they have not put out the great ones. Lots of reading in this one with not much voice over. Graphics are good and music is ok. The HOS are ok hard to find them all at times. The puzzles can be challenging at times. Has some good flow with some running all around.
I recommend this game!

just a fun HOS game with some extra fun things to do. Not a hard game. Hint button works good. Nothing special because this is an older game before they got real story's and adventure. Just a fun game worth playing. All the MCF games like this are good.
I recommend this game!

After reading all the bad reports I see they are all correct. After loving the first one you would have thought they could have done it again. NOPE. I did not even get a full screen to see stuff. Just a lot of going all over the place for no good reason and not much for HOS. Just a bad game.
I don't recommend this game.
