I love this game. I also like the music and like that it's different than the norm. The gameplay is similar to the Coffee Rush series since it's made by the same folks. Some of the same characters appear. In my opinion, it is a little more difficult than the Coffee Rush Series.
I recommend this game!

I loved the first Green City and was shocked to see this one so soon. It is absolutely better. The first one was challenging to me and I had to replay levels to get the gold later on in the game. The second one is even more hair pulling and I absolutely love it. 5 star a-rated time management strategy game. A helpful hint while playing is that you have to be more cut throat/sharky in this second edition than the first.
I recommend this game!

This was a good and long game. There were a good amount of hidden object scenes with at least one or two items that you had to find something else to clear them. There were plenty of voice overs, puzzles and the graphics were a1. This developer is my favorite developer and they once again made a stellar game. I also like how they think outside of the box and keep trying to put new spins on story lines.
I recommend this game!

This review is based on the part one carnival. The storyline isn't anything we haven't seen and the graphics are lacking. However my hour demo time flew by. The gameplay itself is a lot of fun and I have to disagree with the lady before me in saying that the upgrades do not make a major difference. The longer I played the longer the levels got. I think each person should at least try the demo themselves to see if this game is for you since we all have different tastes.
I recommend this game!

This story line is not the same old same old. This is a totally new epic adventure hidden object game. The graphics are top notch, the game fills my widescreen laptop and the story sucks you in from the get go. My hour demo was finished before I knew it. There's a moderate amount of hidden object scenes which I think is perfect. All in all a FANTASTIC game.
I recommend this game!

I think that this was a great game. I wish it would have been longer, not because it was short, but because I enjoyed playing it so much. There was a lot of hidden object scenes like Phantasmat and the puzzles were not so hard. It was a relaxing and really fun game.
I recommend this game!

I thought this game was VERY challenging. It's from a developer who usually brings us fragmented objects but this was a very nice change of pace. I thought the storyline for the main game and the bonus game were both very good. I had to use the walkthrough several times when I got stuck. The graphics were nice and crisp, the hidden object scenes weren't overly junked plus interactive. Overall, it took me quite a long time to finish it and I'd recommend it to everyone.
I recommend this game!

After using a secret alias to board the Titanic, things go terribly wrong and you find yourself trapped among the wreckage. In order to earn freedom from your watery tomb you must appease your captor by re-writing history and freeing the spirits trapped aboard the 'unsinkable' luxury liner as well as discover why fate has chosen this destiny for you.

After reading the reviews in the forums I'm blown away by this game. The graphics are excellent as well as the storyline. The puzzles which I normally skip with most games I solved right away. I like how this game is a different take on the different Titanic games I've played. I am definitely glad I tried it and bought it.

This is my review based on the timed demo only. I really liked the first 2 Tasty so I was excited to this out today.
The gameplay is very similar to the first one with some minor differences, and I did not encounter any technical problems or bugs. I do like how you can right click to get to the other rooms instead of clicking on the arrows. The music was not intrusive, the graphics were fantastic and the storyline is also quite good.
Definite buy for me. Great continuation of the first game.
I recommend this game!

I really liked this game and just finished it. It had stellar crisp graphics which were not grainy in the least, mood music which was not intrusive, I loved all the hidden object scenes, and the puzzles weren't too hard although I did skip a few. It had a good length and different story line from other games. This new developer who does not have anything to do with WoW did an excellent first-rate job at this first game and I look forward to more from them.
I recommend this game!
