The first 10 minutes saw me go through enjoyment and sheer frustration. I was determined to try to find the intrigue of a good game. I was just reaching that 'fascination' of wanting to know what came next when I was at the end of the dem.
Yet another version of a well told story but a good one. Ok it's not rocket science but it's a good game to have for when you don't have time to get over-involved. A good family game. So don't give up, stick with it.
Well done Devs, keep up the promising work. It's going on my list of 'to buy'.

The storyline sounded good and then the game opened. Oh dear! Given the choice of a tutorial I said NO. Then I wanted to play the game but I was 'hand held' every step of the way.
Within 5minutes I was bored +++. Please Devs! Give a decent storyline a good game to back it up. So disappointing.
Maybe the very young/inexperinced etc may find it useful but it's certainly not for me.

I thoroughly enjoyed this game. It made me think and yet I was relaxed. Love the storyline. Love the puzzles - a good range of old & new.
I didn't like the figure at the beginning - and hoped that things improved - they did.
I don't use the sound but was very happy with the graphics otherwise.
This is a definite for me. Well done Devs & BFG.

i was really looking forward to this. It promised so much but the action was sluggish and dragged along. The storyline was good and should have been exciting. I'm afraid I only reached the 'mildly interesting' level. Sorry devs, this is not for me. Such a shame. I'm sure you'll get much better press rating from others. I wish you every success.
I don't recommend this game.

What an enjoyable time I've spent on the trial version. This has got to end up in my pocket. This is a good example of an interesting game.... another variation of a common theme but it still demands attention. Although it does'nt take an Einstein to completet the puzzles it does require some concentration. The graphics are great - I don't use the sound so I cannot comment. I was surprised to be 'allowed' over the water so soon but it just excited me to know that there has to be something worth waiting for in the rest of the game. Well done Devs. Thank you BFG. Just the pick-me -up required. A BIG Thumbs Up.
I recommend this game!

When I saw where the game was from I knew it had to be 1st Class! I was gripped from the start - this is my type of game. It makes the player stretch the thinking power - I used the 'Hint' as little as possible. I don't mind running hither & thither to pick up a lost strand in the puzzle. I made myself complete the trial game although I knew it was going to be mine anyway. I cannot comment on the sound/voiceover because I never use the sound. The visual effects are excellent and I couldn't wait for what the next move brought.
Thank you devs this is great. I was beginning to lose heart, having had to not recommend quite a few games just recently. My faith in you clever people is restored.
It's a BIG thumbs up ansd a BIG Well Done!!
I recommend this game!

The first thing I needed to do was make the graphics lighter ... but only the effects and the sound could be adjusted.
I was unimpressed by the strategy of the game and the configuration. I had the sense that this game was invented by a group of giggling mischievous youngsters who like to watch people struggle.(not a good idea)
The drawings of the HO's were extremely poor e.g. a drawing of a wine bottle turned out to represent a milk bottle???

I stuck it out for approx 14 minutes but could find no redeeming features. Sorry Devs this is just not for me. Back to the drawing board.
I don't recommend this game.

I was looking forwards to playing this game but when I began the game - so did the frustration. I couldn't move before Tesla finished speaking. I felt like an infant school pupil. Too much chatter, too much hand-holding, too many yawns. Please just let me play! Give me a hint system that works should I require it.
This is/ should be a great storyline - let it proceed without interference. Very Disappointing.

The idea is good but didn't fulfil the promise. I don't use the sound but the graphics were good. Progress was slow because of interuptions & hand holding. Maybe ideal for newcomersbut I only managed 12minutes before feeling sleepy. Sorry devs, keep the idea simple - I feel that you are trying too hard to impress.
You'll never satisfy everyone but you missed the mark this time. Don't give up
I don't recommend this game.
