I'm all for mindless vegging out, but while it's a fun game, there is absolutely NO challenge. It's very hard to lose. After you've gotten through 20 boring levels, if you do lose, it doesn't allow a retry and you have to go ALL the back...... to boring! It's been very difficult finding something to use my credits. Plus, any new laptop or windows 10 doesn't allow older games, that I PAID for (Ive tried EVERYTHING!). There no longer is ANY support, and it's just not worth paying monthly :'(

I like this game in that it is very relaxing when you just want to zone out without much effort that SO many of these games now require. I gave it 3 stars because as with ALL the Hidden Verse games they don't allow you to change the cursor and it makes it extremely clunky. In this advance stage of gaming you would think such an easy function would be available. That alone will make me not get another of their games.
The credits are adding up because the offer of games are either dark & gory or WAY TOO time-consuming give up your 1st born for an answer hidden object. So I purchased #9. Wish after 9 of these they could come up with SOMETHING new on the mini games, and not too happy that they STILL do not offer hints on the trash! TWO game credits?? For WHAT exactly?
I was SO disappointed after finding a Clutter Christmas game (YAY!), and then trying to PLAY this disaster of a game. What's with the objects shuffling?? Zero enjoyment factor. Forget about relaxing. Just terrible!
As I'm playing the demo, I kept thinking I already HAVE this game. I checked my purchase history, but nope, only to 7. We wait all year for a new one and it ends up being almost a duplicate of last years. Couldn't you have at least changed their clothes & jewelry?? Gee, thanks.
I don't recommend this game.

I get a lot of enjoyment out of the Lauraville series. My only wish is that they add more "find the difference" mini games. Some of the series don't have them at all. It adds more for me. Can't wait until the next one !
As a match 3 game, there appears to be a lot to offer, but it doesn't give you much instruction as to HOW to go about it. You clear the "red" tiles, but it lets you continue to play ..... forever !, without gaining anything. There's talk of tools & badges, but no explanation on how to get them. Wanted to like it, but eh.
I don't recommend this game.

I love the "brick" bashing games and I'm bored to tears with Action Ball. The graphics on this, as well as the fire power ups are terrific, but it needs some adjustment ! Seeing that this game is older, I don't think they ever bothered TO adjust it. Shame tho, cause it had a lot of potential. I would not recommend this game. Trying to control the bat (slow, med, fast) is just way too frustrating.
I don't recommend this game.

Sink into this underwater breakout game. Instead of busting bricks, you get to crush crustaceans and their aquatic cohorts.

Even on the highest setting for mouse speed, it was just WAY too slow ! The graphics were nice & there was opportunity for cool tools, but you couldn't direct the ball, and the bat was really sluggish & wouldn't respond. Too bad !, I really wanted another blasting game.
I don't recommend this game.

I loved the graphics of this game & I love the match 3 and H/O combination. But I hate having to jump thru hoops to GET to the game. I do this for relaxation! I don't know who came up with this idea of frustration, but it seems to be more & more the norm. I just want to play ! ~ Without having to figure out all this nonsense.
