This is an older game but one that I play frequently. You have the option of a regular jigsaw puzzle but then you also have the option of multilayer puzzles as well.
With the multilayer puzzle, you can choose from from 2 - 6 puzzles "stacked" on top of each other. You're provided an image of each puzzle in the stack and you'll click to scroll through the pieces to figure out which picture the piece goes to and then place it.
The game does get challenging as you move through the puzzles #especially the 6 layers# but it's also relaxing a great way to unwind. The game is well worth the cost!
I recommend this game!

Like others mentioned, I'm glad I didn't pay full price on this game. It's OK, but not great.
The game is very short; I almost completed it during the trail version and that including NOT skipping any dialogue. It has lots of HOS and the puzzles are not very challenging.
Overall, however, it's a good way to spend an hour or so but only if you purchase it as a daily deal or catch of the week.
I recommend this game!

This game is a throwback to the very early HOGs with the addition of beautiful graphics. Although the HOS and the mini-games are not that challenging, I recommend the game for the storyline, wonderful music, and beautiful overall look of the game.

This is a good game with nice artwork, good music, and enjoyable storyline. The things that keep it from being great for me is that the HOS and puzzles are not that challenging.
It's a good game to spend a few hours on.

This is an excellent game - on par with the first Maestro game. Great graphics, HOS that are not too challenging but not too easy. Narrative is great (except like one other reviewer mentioned, accent a little off, but that's ok :)
I couldn't wait to buy the game to finish it!

This game is just ok. The graphics are cute but narrative has a lot of grammar errors. HOS are not challenging; it may be better as a family or kid game but I didn't enjoy it.
I played about 30 minutes of the trial but won't be purchasing the game.
I don't recommend this game.

This game is not fun at all. Tiny pieces to find, mini games are not challenging, graphics are cartoons, and music is annoying.
As simple as it appears to be, there are times where I found myself not knowing what I should do. I didn't even finish the trial which is very unusual for me.
I don't recommend this game.

This game is good for beginners of HOGs or for kids but not challenging enough for anyone else. I didn't finish the trial which is very unusual.
The graphics are cartoonish and the dialogue gives too much information on what to do next. You don't have to think much to play the game. I really didn't like dressing the character either.
I don't recommend this game.

This is not as good or as challenging as the "Curse of the Full Moon" but still a good game. I'm glad I didn't buy the collector's edition; however, but it's worth using a game club credit #to me anyway#.
Good graphics, good mini puzzles but again, not as challenging as the first.
I recommend this game!

I loved the Big City Adventure titles and purchased several of the first ones. I hadn't played one in a while and thought, "What the heck, I'll try one again." I don't know if it's the fact that my taste in HOGs has changed or if Big City hasn't progressed much, but I wasn't really impressed with this one.
It's a matter of personal preference, but I need more than just a straight up HOG now. I'm into the ones that have mysteries or stories wrapped around them with challenging puzzles. I didn't see that with this one.
If you're looking for a standard HOG, then this one will fit the bill. If you need more of a challenge, look further. This game is OK, but I won't be buying it; it's just not for me.
I don't recommend this game.
