This is the best game that I've played in a long time. It is absolutely filled with challenging and fun puzzles, some of which were new to me. Even the HOPs have embedded puzzles. The artwork and music are beautiful. My only criticism is that the characters are a bit robotic, but I don't really play these games for the characters or storyline.
I recommend this game!

I buy all of the Casual Arts games sight unseen. They are a welcome break from all of the other macabre games that Big Fish offers. The hidden object games are challenging, but not stressful and the artwork is beautiful.
While I do appreciate the familiar characters, music and scenes, I agree with the other reviewers that it is getting a bit too repetitive, but it is possible that it seems this way to me because I played the past versions of the game leading up to the release of this version. You may also recognize bits and pieces from the Cruise Director and Park Ranger games.
I had no trouble installing or playing the game.
I recommend this game!

I thoroughly enjoyed this game. It was a real murder mystery with a good storyline. It reminded me a little of the adventure games that I used to play in the early 2000s, but with much better graphics. The mini-games were challenging, but not too difficult. Each hidden object game was a little unique. I also loved that the game play was not limited to 2-3 rooms as you find in most games these days. You had to work within the entire map to use your objects and every once in a while, a new location would be revealed. The graphics were beautiful as well. If it wasn't for the stalker, Hidden Pines seems like a beautiful place to visit. Well done developers!!
I recommend this game!

When I saw that there was a new Cadenza game, I was so excited and purchased it after the very short demo (finished in 20 minutes). After finishing the game, I wish I hadn't been so hasty. I echo the other reviewers when I say that this game was a total disappointment. It didn't resemble any of the other Cadenza games that I've played. The puzzles and hidden object games would only have been challenging to a 4 year old. You only work within 1 or 2 scenes at a time, which I find to be lazy on the part of the developer. I much prefer to have to explore many active scenes/rooms at a time and have to remember my way around and where to use all of my items. My favorite part about the Cadenza games was the music but the music in this game was mostly just background noise. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone.
I don't recommend this game.

World Tour Africa is very similar to the other puzzle games from 8 Floor. Most of the pictures don't seem to be from Africa, though, and many of them are the same pictures I've seen in the 1001 series puzzle games. While I like the pictures of flowers, fruit, landscapes and animals, I don't care for the pictures of people and don't want to spend time assembling a puzzle of a complete stranger.
I felt that the maximum number of pieces (around 300, depending on the puzzle) is sufficient for me, as puzzles with a higher number of pieces tends to strain my eyes.
I happen to really like this platform, especially the music, shape variety and features such as the border and magnifier tools. I just wish that 8 Floor would put out a puzzle game that has these same features, but allows us to upload our own pictures. I have tried other puzzle games that allow you to upload pictures, but they are not the same and are not as fun, as they don't allow for a variety of shapes within a puzzle (unless you distort them in a weird way), have no music and no border feature.
I recommend this game!
