I was pleasantly surprised to see a TMG this morning, but even more, I was absolutely delighted to see Rescue Team!
This is the best Rescue Team offering to date. New challenges without being impossible, fun to play, and love the new cable car. Still has the usual cranes, firemen, doctors, boats and helicopters, but IMHO, they keep the fun associated with this series.
The have the achievements, and as in the past, some are quite difficult to achieve. But, isn't that part of the fun and challenge? Also includes using points to build up a "city" (for lack of a better word).
I look forward to completing the game, reaching 3 stars on each level, and tackling those achievements. I highly recommend this game if you like time management games.
I recommend this game!

As someone who really loves TM games, I was very happy to see Aztec Skulls. No, it isn't as challenging or as long as Adelantado, but I thoroughly enjoyed playing.
I waited until I completed the game to make my review because too many times, I've given 5 stars but as I got further into the game, I found I should have waited.
I've completed it and loved every minute! The challenge is there for sure, especially trying to find the hidden treasures. There were several levels I had to play a number of times in order to get 3 stars, but I never felt that it was impossible to achieve.
My only disappointment is that the game ended. I can't complain about the length of the game as it was not a CE even though it did have a bonus level (which was only one level rather than the 10 in each of the other "books"). I felt the length of the game was more than adequate as a non-CE game.
As a true fan of TM games, this did not disappoint in any way. I guess some expect a lot more; what I'm not sure. But, I will be replaying this one over and over!
BFG .... more like this please!!

I almost jumped for joy (well, at my age, maybe not too high) when I saw another time-management game! What? Isn't this like the 2nd one in like a week or so? Hallelujah!
What is really great about this game is that it is both fun and challenging. I don't care for TM games that are so challenging, that you couldn't make 3 stars if they gave you 2 more more minutes, but this game has caused me to have to replay a number of levels before I was able to get the 3 stars (and find the mouse in each level). Yet, I wasn't frustrated as I have been in games as mentioned above. This game is neither too easy nor too hard, just as I have come to expect from the developer.
Kudos BFG for presenting a fun/challenging TM game, not only once this month, but twice (Viking Brothers 2)!!! Excuse me while I go continue cooking while working on my law degree;)
I recommend this game!

I have been playing old time management games for days because I am so sick of the HOGs that assault us on a daily basis from BFG (not their fault; they can only give what they receive).
I couldn't believe my eyes this morning when I say Incredible Dracula as the game of the day (doing happy dance)!!!
I absolutely love Incredible Dracula games! I was a bit bummed after the last one because the title kind of insinuated that was the final game (The Last Call) , but HALLELUJAH, I was mistaken!
I am obsessed with TM games, and this game does not disappoint. Yes, it is similar to previous games, but so what. Can anyone say that the never ending, mind-numbing HOG games assaulting us on a daily basis is not similar to every other HOG that "hogs" the daily games? I think not. I find this game challenging and fun. Add to trying to beat the clock the challenge of finding the "hidden" statues, pet treats, etc. Yep, great game!
You don't like TM games ... good for you. But, are you not like walking zombies watching the dark, depressing HOGs you have to choose from (exception: Christmas Stories The Gift of Magi)? Give us TM players a break. Ignore the game and wait for the next repetitive HOG from the developers that have that market down pat.
In the time, I'm going to enjoy every time challenge provided with this fun game. Thank you BFG!!! MORE TM GAMES PLEASE!! :D
I recommend this game!

Rescue Team has rescued me from the never-ending assault of dreary/depressing HOGs. I was really excited the day I opened BFG and saw a time management game! And, it was a Rescue Team TMG!! I have enjoyed every release in this series and this one doesn't disappoint.
At first, I was like, "This is impossible to get 3 stars!!! No way am I buying this game if I don't stand a chance!" But, then I discovered the "multi-click mode" and the strategy guide (I don't know how anyone can get 3 stars with the "normal mode" and I consider myself an expert at TMG). Now, I have the ability to try and figure it out on my own or use the guide if I'm stumped.
Even with the guide and multi-click option, the levels get progressively more challenging, but that is why I love TMG games. The challenge of beating the clock is what draws me to these games. If that challenge doesn't appeal to one, they can always use the relax mode. This game will keep me going for hours!
Thank you BFG for providing a challenging, fun TMG!! More please! :D

I absolutely love TM games and was excited to finally see another TM game on BFG. While I enjoy playing the game, it is no where near Incredible Dracula. I will order it with one of the specials, I will play it to the end, but I'm not excited about this game.
I know that TM games take hours and hours and hours of development and testing before release, so I give kudos to the development/testing team for spending the time to give us this game. And, for that I thank you.
I am afraid we will see fewer and fewer TM games because of the time it takes to develop this type of game. I'll keep looking for them and hoping for the best. In the meantime, I will play this one in hopes of a new TM soon.
Having said all that, I would rather have a mediocre TM game than the endless, same ol' HOG games that seem to be non-stop on BFG. Same people giving those games 5 stars every time, but if you read their reviews, they say they will wait for the SE game. Please, BFG, more TM games ... PUHLEZE!!!
I recommend this game!

I have been waiting and waiting and waiting for this game to finally come to BFG! And, it does not disappoint! The fun continues with as many challenges & collectibles as Incredible Dracula 1.
I did find the beginning levels not as challenging, but I knew as I moved through that I would be facing levels I would have to play over and over and over to finally get 3 stars. And, I was right. Doesn't bother me; I love the challenge.
As far as the price, one could always wait until a special appears from BFG. And, this game as a Collector's Edition is worth the price. There are so many levels that the regular game will not provide. Also, the Strategy Guide is a must to complete some of the levels. So, yeah, if you don't want to wait for the specials, then as far as I'm concerned this game is worth the CE price. Hours and hours and hours of challenges and fun.
Thank you BFG!!! If you loved the first Incredible Dracula, you'll love this one as well. Just sayin...

I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw Moai IV was the game of the day! As I've been burned before by buying before trying, I decided to do the trial first. I didn't have to even finish the trial to know this was a keeper.
As in previous Moai games, I found play was very challenging but not impossible. This episode is just another great example of what a time management game should be.
Although I was beginning to think we would never see another great TM game, Moai IV was well worth the wait! Keep them coming!!
I recommend this game!

I absolutely love strategy/time management games, so I was delighted to see this game on BFG! I have the previous 2 games and both challenged me while giving me hours of pleasurable playing time. I so wanted to be able to give this 5 stars, but I have to be honest (sure wish I could give 4-3/4 stars).
First, I will say it is worth the CE price because there are 100 levels to play. The only reason I didn't give it a full 5 stars is that as the game progressed, it was not as challenging as I thought a 5 star game should be.
There were a few levels that I had to replay several times in order to beat the clock, but for the most part, I had plenty of time left over. Definitely not as challenging as Incredible Dracula by a long shot, but it was fun to play.
Having been one who tested software before release, I can only imagine the amount of time and effort it takes to create TM/strategy games (think about it people; they have to make sure that every single click results in the desired results w/out crashing the software; they develop awesome graphics (watch the moving water, birds flying, etc. on these games), and this developer is one of the best!)
That said, I would recommend this game. Wasn't crazy about the story line, but anytime BFG gives us a decent time management/strategy game, I'm in. Thank you BFG!

I absolutely love this game, but can only give it 4 stars. I love a challenge (what fun would it be to get 3 stars on the first try each and every time). I don't even mind replaying a level 4-5, even 6 times to attempt to reach the 3 stars.
What I don't appreciate is playing a level 10 or more times, even after watching walkthroughs, and still not being able to reach 3 stars. After a while, it becomes frustrating and takes away from the fun of the game.
I like the graphics and cute little things that are included in each level (e.g., little animals, coal trains moving through some scenes, finding the collectibles). The music isn't overpowering and fits nicely with the theme of the game.
I really wanted to give this game 5 stars, but as an experienced TM player, I find this one just a bit too frustrating to give it the top rating.
Having said that, I look forward to more TM games, both from this developer and BFG overall.
I recommend this game!
