Boy so far this looks like a great game. The storyline is good and thru out the game tells you more. The graphics are crisp and clear. Has voice over and the music is nice to listen to.
The HOS are interactive and to me pretty easy.
The puzzles are good with many seen the same type in other games but still fun.
You get achievements for not using the hint button and doing things during the game.
There are owls to find during the game as morphine.
Has a map that will take you to the area you need to go.
I did not use the hint button. Did not need it. Flow of the game is not hard to figure out.
They did there homework on this game. Just a great all around excellent game to play. With the 2 for 1 this weekend it will be a buy for me.
I recommend this game!

ERS is one of the best game developers and again did a good job. This is another in the series and still making them interesting and just fun to play.
Good storyline and graphics. Music is good and has voice over.
The hint button works good and not all that slow. Most of these games are not hard to play at all so you do not get discouraged. The HOS are good like normal some with interactive play. Puzzles are some easy to me and some not, but good.
I would have to say that there game play does not change much at all, so if you have played the others then this one is on the same game plan and level. I myself enjoy playing them and think you will also.
The CE has a little more to offer and has the bonus.
I recommend this game!

Another elephant game and they are normally good and so is this one.
The graphics are good and has some voice over.
The game is pretty much on the same play line as the other 3. You have achievements to find which are fun.
The hint button could be better. Just tell you what to do and not where to go. Did not see a map so.
You have elf again (the dog) to help you find clues.
The HOS were really easy and the puzzles are not that bad. The HOS are interactive also.
Pretty good game to play. As I said pretty much the same as the others just a new crime to figure out.
I recommend this game!

This is a pretty good game. The only complaint I have is the hint button. Tells you what to do and not where to go. Yes it has a map to do that but I like to not use a map if possible. Wish MAC would get there games. The graphics are good. Not to many HOS at all. More of an adventure game. Puzzles are good and some are harder than others. But you have seen them in other games. Still a real good game to play. Has voice over. I will get the SE.
I recommend this game!

The good:
I will have to say the graphics are pretty good. had voice over at the beginning but then all reading.
The bad:
Nothing really to tell you what to do unless you hit the hint button. Then you go there and nothing really to do.
I played only a short time and got frustrated and quit. I did not see a HOS or puzzle in that time, just running around for no real reason.
No instruction at all for the game but the hint button.
Do not know what the developer was trying to do in this game.
The ugly:
The hole concept of the game is just bad.
I don't recommend this game.

This game is just building, remodeling, and selling what you build in the neighborhood.
Lots of levels to get to. No voice over which leaves to lots of reading. Did I mention lots of reading. After you get thru the instruction it is pretty much doing the same thing over and over to make money. Renting, building, selling, buying material to build, remodeling homes to make money. Not a bad game just doing the same thing over and over. Not hard to play once you know what to do. Try it out and see what you think.

They need to go back and remake this one. The graphics are not that that great.
The HOS are ok and some are interactive.
Hint button works good and has a map.
The puzzles could be better and new.
There is just a of thing missing to make this a good game to buy. The CE was not worth the money and neither is this one.
I don't recommend this game.

Boy not this one is different some what to the other games and is a real challenge to play. Not hard just lots going on. You also get achievements. Almost looks like a CE but not. The graphics are good and the music is intense. The hint button works good. The HOS are really good and not all that easy, lots to find and some change. Really different but fun. Lots in interaction in this game with the items you find as how to use them. Good directions during the game and has voice over.
You need to try this one and see how you like it. Again different than the normal SE that you are used to playing.
I recommend this game!

Now this one is a good well put together game. Looks more like an adventure game than HO game. I did not get too many HOS or puzzles but still was a good game.
The graphics are crisp and beautiful scenery. Music is nice to listen to and has voice over.
3 modes of play. Has a map and hint button works good if needed.
You get achievements and have morphine's to find. Flowers and there are lots of them so you have to try and find the correct ones.
Really good storyline what is reveled at the beginning of the game.
Looks like a good buy and you get 1/2 off today.
I recommend this game!
