Ten minutes was all I could take of this. Poor instructions from an unlikeable, insulting character; bad grammar; and blood splotched across the screen -- not for me!
I don't recommend this game.

I only played through the demo, which is why it gets 4 stars and not 5, but will certainly end up buying this one just to see how it turns out. It has an intriguing storyline -- all about murder, jealousy and secrets. So far, interesting but fairly easy puzzle and HOS -- but I played the demo in casual mode rather than the two more challenging levels. So although my review is perhaps making this game sound too easy, the storyline kept my interest. Typical good graphics as we've come to expect from ERS, as well as realistic voiceovers. Nothing annoying that I've found so far. It's a keeper for me!
I recommend this game!

After 15 minutes of the demo, it wasn't worth my time to continue. Very simplistic, not very attractive looking screens. It's straight tile matching; not easy to get the desired points/stars, but nothing more to it than matching the tiles. There are many, many "Mahjong" games better than this one. (And I hope everyone knows that matching tiles like this is not the real game of Mah Jongg anyway!)
I don't recommend this game.

If you're looking for a complicated strategy/time management game, this might be it. But just know this is not similar to My Kingdom for the Princess or Roads of Rome. There's no "cute" or "fun" factor. So if that's what you're looking for, this game will just give you a headache.
I don't recommend this game.

Ugh! Boring, tedious, slow-moving, nonsensical... Not suited for anyone over 5 years old! (But if you are looking for a match 3 "starter game" for your young ones, this might be it.)
I don't recommend this game.

The visuals are quite good, and the developers tried to do something a bit different with the hidden object scenes by looking for items that need to be linked to other items. But I lost interest in the storyline mid-way through the demo. And the hidden object scenes became annoying; I found myself just clicking on everything rather than taking the time to think about it. The game is okay, but I didn't enjoy it as much as a few other games that came out these past couple of weeks.
I don't recommend this game.

This adventure game has been around for years now, and it remains one of the best designed ever with a richly haunting storyline. Yes, it will take a few minutes to figure out how to manipulate the conversations and inventory items -- but it's worth your patience. Part 2, apparently not yet available from BF, is just as good! If you are strictly looking for HOGs or quick puzzles, this is not for you. If you enjoy great stories and have the patience to let this one evolve, you'll be very satisfied.
I recommend this game!

Boring storyline, dull dialog. Too many different games going on with confusing map. Gave up after 20 minutes. Was looking for a fast-paced M3 game and this clearly is not it.
I don't recommend this game.
