Based on Demo-casual mode
This CE is part of the Margrave series & a wonderful installment
relaxing music
good voice overs
Graphics crisp
HOS(hidden object scenes) are clear, and items are well hidden
**no click penalties!**
Hint works outside of HOS-fills quickly
may need one pair of extra sneakers
love the dream card puzzles
Capanion is humourous once you get him to go with you
The story line is quite interesting
I loved it & HIGHLY recommend it!

I won't go into detail like sportygal2009 - but I did find it a fun and relaxing game-and the 2forone bonus weekend purchase helped.

Based on Demo:
Good:
intro
Story line
crisp graphics
challenging puzzles
Sneakers alert: minimal-confined to story chapter
Bad:
the sound varies on you unexpectingly
Super Slow recharge on Hints
Click Penalty in Hogs
no reset on puzzles
*******************************
Originally came out as Ce, then Se, then cliches were fixed now DD
I find the graphics are crisp, then HOGs are well hidden not junk, but the recharge on the hints is way too long-on casual was about 2 minutes--REALLY? sheesh
For DD it is a fun game to fill ounch card, will take about 3-4 hours for average player (unless you are a huge hint user-then add an hour)

I never liked SIMs games, they stressed me out. But this one was a BLAST!
What I liked:
no clock ticking away
Having the abilties (Godlike) to move buildings
Replayability
cute storyline
cartoon graphics that are east on the eyes
RELAXING

What I didn't like: just one!
not enough room--I would have really liked to have seen more area to extend the play-like where the traders where coming from-just a thought

By the time the finish came-several hours a day for several days-my first go around looked like the slums for lack of room.
The next time I played I learned alot & planned better--now on third go & still enjoying it immensly.
Don't let the title fool you, this game had Strategy, cute characters, and so much entertainment.
I was hook by the half way mark of the trial.
I recommend this game!

I really enjoyed the free demo on this & bought it
The story was a 'grab-you-at-the-start' type
you can play this game without playing the other
the graphics/music are good
two play modes
**sneaker Alert***
I, for once, enjoyed the back & forth movement as it was fun to try & remember this object goes to that scene
the HINT works outside of the HOS
The Voice overs & in between scene are well done & move the storyline along well
overall a really good SE game for more than an hours entertainment

Based on demo--then bought!
This bright fun game looks like childs game---at first.
two modes: timed & relaxed
funny sounds-
several controls for sounds
awards/achievments
extras to play for
bonus game
click on flying sheep for extra $'s
buy farm buildings with cash earned
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
at first I thought this would be a game for the grandkids, but after playing full demo hour, which I highly recommend, found it light, bright, entertaining, some challenge
*try not to starve off the livestock
you slowly earn animal bonus Dog/Cat/Rooster/Pig--that represent the different things you can use for, you also need to "clean up" the yard by M3 the gold square.
All in all a fun light game with some challenge & good entertainment value.

This is a twist on M3--actually it isn't a M3 per se, but can be fun-kinda

The game board: Timed (4-5 min)
The colours are very bright! And the orbs have a 3-D quality to them
The colours are very bright! And the orbs have a 3-D quality to them
The overall map is child like drawings--don't let that fool you!
can hop from one level to another once unlocked
can hop from one level to another once unlocked
The game: you are to swap one orb for another to create as many chain reaction as you can--each match YOU make cost a coin-each chain reaction creates 1-15 coins.
You need to reach a certain score to go level up-
After level 3, I think, you get random bomb locks-match those & get even more coins.
In between level you some times get a "challenge" clear the board in "x" moves-- like Bejeweld in a way

This game can be challenging, after the first few levels
Good for final punch or really boring day
Can be played by any member of the family

Based on FULL hour Demo:
one game level
Music mellow
Artist concept drawing between scenes
FROG (Fractured Object Scenes) tend to go from monochrome to bright
Some Object are difficult to see (white on white sort of thing)
Hint refills at about 45 second-I used it alot
Click Penalties & sometimes has dialog to tell you you misclicked (really?)
Overall a relaxing game to wile away an afternoon if you want a non-demon, non-gory, family friendly type of game
or if you are at end of month & need to burn a punch code or get you card punch for a freebie
**On personal note I find Jane Austin books kinda funny in todays world. More a comedic story line.
