For once the bonus game was unique and separate from the main story. Well worth a collectors edition in all forms. Absolutely beautiful and the attention to detail marvellous. The hidden dolls were gorgeous. Loved this game.

For someone who has trouble remembering what to do, this game gave clear directions with the map and you could see where to look for the morphing objects, BUT if you didnt want help you could turn them off and make it a challenge.
Every aspect of the game was brilliant from the clever mini games and clear but interesting hidden objects.
With clear and beautifully life like graphics it was a joy to play and explore.
Havent finished the bonus game, but it is totally separate from the original game and goes to new areas.
Definitely my favourite game.

Ok this is an adventure game, but you still have to look around and find things. I was lazy and played the casual mode, but see that as expert you will have more games to play. Been playing for over 3 hours and just reached Chpt 4, so good length. Its different but such a lovely change from the gloomy games we have been playing. As I said just try it.
I recommend this game!

From the moment I saw a Mystery Tracker was available I knew I had to buy it, as the previous games had been amongst my favourite replayable games. So for new Fishes who have not had the pleasure of trying this series, I would recommend the great offer to buy at a discounted price. You will have days of fun.
About this game, well we have Elf the dog and you will need to use his talents You wont get bored as there is a nice mix of HO and puzzles. You can play by walking everywhere or take a short cut using the map. You also have additional morphing animals to find, aswell as playing the game!
I recommend this game!

I prefer HOGs but decided to try this as I had enjoyed My Kingdom for a Princess. I LOVE this game because each scene has a different challenge AND even if you a bit slow like me you are allowed to finish that section, even if you run out of time. MKFP 2 I got stuck half way through and couldnt finish in time, no matter how hard I tried and had to give up, so I am so happy I was able to finish this game. I have now restarted to see if I can gain a few medals.
I recommend this game!

Brilliant game, but you difinitely need to make notes if you want work out what to do. Some items collected dont find a home until several scenes later as more of the landscape is revealed or you find things that you have needed for ages. The hint screen was great for when I got stuck as it showed the place to head for, with out giving away what to do. Worth the cost, as you really have to work the brain cells to progress further into the game.
I recommend this game!

I dont make many reviews and though I am only half way through I am really enjoying this game. I like the way each scene is completed and then clear for the next one. I dont have to make notes or try to remember where I saw something. Being a 'senior citizen' my short term memory is a bit wonky, so playing a game over a couple of days I get frustrated because I have difficulty remembering what I did the day before! I am so glad I dont have stuff cluttering up the inventory that sits there for several chapters and I am constantly trying to use. So this game is relaxing and has extra gameplay in the hidden object scenes so they have a bit of a challenge.
I recommend this game!

This game has so much going on and the mini games are innovative and require some thought. Not too keen on some of the hidden object scenes that can be fuzzy and colourless. Love the idea of additional objectives like collecting photos, cards and turning on lights. Got everything going for it.
Absolutely worth the money.
I recommend this game!

Dont expect the normal Big Fish type game. Very simple hidden object game and OK for a lazy afternoon when you dont want to do much thinking or are new to this type of game. It is a very short game.
I don't recommend this game.
