I love strategy games (I find there are way to few of them)
but this game was not fun for me. I found moving around extremely difficult, the lack of color was indeed depressing and the learning curve tedious. Not even worth a free coupon. Oh and the audio sucked. Drag.

I've been playing games at BF since 2012 and I must own over 100 games by now. Yet there are only 5 that I would consider unique, re-playable and really fun and the Life Quest games are at the top of my list, followed by Hero of the kingdom 1 and 2 and last but not least MCF's Fates Carnival. Oh and I should give an honorable mention to City of Fools. But all these games have been made years ago and I'm left wondering why all the games put out by BF in the last couple of years have been cookie cutter HOG's with the odd TM thrown in. I'm sick of dark dreary HOG's and I know I'm not the only one. Please BF put some variety back in your games.
I recommend this game!

I read the reviews, played the game and felt I had to write my own review.
Yes it has it's problems but with a little extra thinking they are all manageable.
I loved the game because in an amusing way I felt like I was traveling along with the family. Some of these sites I have seen in real life and I felt the game gave a good glimpse of them.
So my opinion is just to try to stick it out through the packing scene and then your onto the adventure!

The game was fun until I had to catch a fish. It was impossible and I don't know why. I checked the forum and repeated as instructed and still not one fish. Very frustrating. At this point I'm only two hours into the game and I'm erasing it. What a waste.
I don't recommend this game.

It is soooo wonderful to play something that isn't the same old HO or TM. I LOVED this game! Like many of the other players I lost sleep because I could not stop playing. The game play (not the story line) reminded me of 2 other favorites : City of Fools and World of Thellians, both being more quest/adventure/strategic with no timer. Please BF could you add more of these unique games to your list. PS: a couple of more sim games like: Life Quest or Magic Life would be great too. Please and many thanks!
I recommend this game!

I played the 1 hour demo thinking it had the possibility of being a fun/spooky Halloween them type game but instead all it is 'find the lock'...''find the key'....etc. The monster are all 'dead' so the only thing to interact with is your partner who keeps dissapearing. Halloween= no; borring=yes...unless you like searching for keys.
I don't recommend this game.

The game is very light and enjoyable but there is no skip button for the puzzles/games. I have run into a puzzle that i cannot finish in time and now the game is stopped dead in it's tracks and i am only half way through. Unfortunately a waste of money.
I don't recommend this game.
