One of the worst games I've ever played on BF! The annoyance of having to "clean" the card before you can see what it is. The almost unintelligible scripts. I would have not given any stars if that were possible. Yech, yech, yech!
I don't recommend this game.

This is a terrific M3 game! You build a farm with the $ you get from your M3 sales of veggies. There is a good story. The characters are a hoot. I loved watching the kid run around and do funny things. Easy HO scenes are thrown in between the M3 play. Graphics are excellent! The M3 starts off easy and gets harder as you go, especially when you start renovating farms 2 and 3. But there was really only one M3 board that gave me trouble. It's just a fun and funny game. Smiled my way through it!

I liked this game. It was definitely linear. Get a quest, find the objects, assemble or use, get next quest. The story was fun; the graphics were good. I liked the mini-games even tho' they were easy. One puzzle eluded me completely. The game made me smile which is a good thing!

I liked this little game. The story was fun, the graphics great. It could be a good game to play with your kids. The HOs were not too hard to find and all made sense for finishing the scene. And I loved figuring out how to do some of the challenges like getting rid of all the penguins on a boat. The mini-games, tho, were very easy. Script was mostly direction, but had a couple funny moments. All in all, a cute game that I enjoyed.

I liked, not LOVED, this game. It was definitely more challenging than many. The HOs were often difficult to find, but I kinda' liked that for a change since soooo many are too easy. I did have to look at the walkthru a couple times just to get a hint as to where a REALLY hidden object was! I liked collecting the dream jewels and solving the secret riddle that gave you a clue you might be able to use in this quest or later in the game. The puzzles weren't too hard and mostly entailed finding all the objects to solve them. There is NO skip or hint button so, if you're stuck, it's definitely a trip to the walkthru! Rather short game and abrupt ending which always leaves me cold. But as a whole, I liked the game and recommend it.

Excellent storyline, great graphics, good puzzles, more challenging HO than most. A GREAT mix. Lots of going back, but a map moves you there quickly. Just need to remember where each puzzle was, so writing them down and crossing them out as you finish them will help you TONS! Won't say more since everyone else already has had their 2 cents! Loved the game..

I'll add my 2 cents to the many other reviews, but keep it short.
Great graphics, storyline, Ending satisfactory in SE, but leaves you a little bit hanging with a continuation to the CE.
HO scenes easy. Most puzzles the same, tho' a couple keep you working at it. Had to use the walkthrough once.
Some running around, but not horrendous. Satisfactory length of play.
Really enjoyed it.

This was a very simple but enjoyable game! It is an HOG with some puzzles intermixed. You also beautify the Lagoona school with upgrades you buy with your money from the HO finds as well as market sales of your HO items. Each scene also has gems to find which open more and more HO rooms in the school. Good story and characters, too. A game you could play with your kiddies. I liked it.

I liked - not LOVED - this game. I thought the story was good if you like romantic novels. Also liked the fact that there wasn't a hint button to fall back on. You could, however, click the word in the HO scenes and be told where the item was. And the puzzles were pretty simple because they were all solved w/in the same scene. A few of them required some mathematical figuring, but nothing too brainy. Very linear. And the mirrors gave you hints of what you were going for. Thought the graphics were good; I don't listen to game music. Very short. But a pleasant diversion.
I recommend this game!

Really nice HO find-the-pieces game. Good story line re: catching the Snark. Very linear but not boring. Each time you completed the object by finding all the pieces, you could use that in the scene which led you to another piece and another object completed and so on and on.... A couple times I got stuck on what to do next and had to resort to the hints which took you right to what you needed to do next - usually a tiny piece of an object I missed.
Graphics are GREAT! Medium length and pretty satisfying ending. Good game.
