I didn't feel I had enough to review on after an hour demo, so I bought it and finished the game. Still not sure how I feel about this game
A sweet little game, but nothing to get exicted about.
The game is a little on the short side. But that didn't bother me much. Not feeling well today, and didn't want to spend hours on my computer anyway. Much better to cuddle with my kindle in bed.
There were two parts that bothered me. First, I couldn't figure out how to clean the watch. Oh...open it first. Duh.
Second, the blurry cut scene. My was blinking my eyes trying to see better. Rather funny if you think about it.
Didn't see that ending coming.
If you have a few credits hanging around, get it. If you'er hurting for cash, I'd pass it by.
I recommend this game!

I think some of you will think me mad, I didn't find this game to be anything special.
All of the challenges were easy to do. The map made getting from one place to another so easy I didn't even have to think about where I had to go.
And just a bit too many cut scenes, just a bit.
Still it is a good game. The only problem I have with this game, is, should I buy the CE or the SE.
I recommend this game!

I agree with the others. The HOS were a bit too dark. Some of the items didn't look like I expected. The snake skin looked more like a half rolled bandage.
This game is just ok. I hope you like to do HOS, this game is loaded with them.
I recommend this game!

Just an average game. There were a few new challenges, and a twist on a few old ones, but I'm not sure about this one. It seems like it's short. There have been a few I thought were short and they fooled me (love those), but this one really felt short.
The story line is a child needs rescued from bad guys with magic powers. I have the feeling that it might be the child that's the bad guy. Might be wrong.
Will I buy it? I'm not sure. Well, why not, I have to see if I'm right about the child.
I think this is one where you need to try the demo and see for yourself.
I recommend this game!

I am so dazed and confused...two great games in a row. I'm loving it.
With the exception of the hint button being of no use in the HO part, and the cut scenes being blurry at times, I have no problems with this game.
I think that this is one of the best storylines I've seen in a while.
The challenge is just right. You have to think a bit, but not to the point you get a brainstrain. There were two spots that I had problems with...until I fuigured out what I was doing wrong, LOL.
Yes siree, I'll be buying this one too.
I recommend this game!

How in the sam-hill of beans did I miss this one when it came out as a CE? It is now my gold standard for comparison of HO games. The old one was Ravenhearst.
Within minutes I beame so enthralled in the game, that it was like a slap in the face when my hour was up.
The hint button is ready in seconds, some thing I didn't really like. Sounds strange, I know, but some days I get lazy and just let the hint button tell me where to go. I try to play M3 on those days.
All that being said, I'm not buying this game...I have the CE version downloading as I write this.
Oh, it's done...gatta go.
I recommend this game!

A mug wump is someone who sits with thier mug on one side of the fence and thier wump on the other. That's exactly how I feel about this game. On one hand I liked the walk down memory lane, it's a nice game, on the other I found it frustrating. The play seemed jerky, not as smooth as I've gotten used to. You had to have your pointer in exactly the right place to click on objects. Dealing with the nails was frustrating. Small things like that, they build up after a while and make the game tedious.
Never thought I would miss voice overs.
Back in the day, I would have given 5 stars. But things have changed some and I can only give it 3 stars.
Still, for what it was, it was a nice little game.
I recommend this game!

I love mah jong games. But not this one. The music is real irritating when you start, it becomes just annoying while you play.
You can't turn off the tutorial so you end up having to follow directions for the first game. Can we say annoying boys and girls? Mah Jong has been around for a while now, most of us know how to play, so let those of us who do be able to turn off the tutorial if we don't need it.
I did rather like using roman numerals. Easyer to see.
I don't usually like timed games, but this one didn't matter because you can move to the next level anyway. In fact the only thing you had to do was clear the board. So it could be as challenging as you want it to be.
Was there a storyline? I saw some guy fly in on a magic carpet and destroy things, I don't know what that was all about.
I'm not buying this one. It's a seen one seen them all, sort of game.
I think I'll go play Mah Jong Quest or kyodi.
I don't recommend this game.

I really like the way you do the HOs. It took a little getting used to, but was fun once you got the hang of it.
The music was annoying so I turned it off. The graphics were real good, really crisp.
I only skipped one mini game, the rolling balls, because of time. Had I owned the game I would have taken the time to fugure it out. I'll restart the game so I can do it.
Once you get used to the HOs there isn't any hard challange.
The storyline was the same old, gotta find my sibling, friend, parent, ect. But I was so into the game, I didn't care.
Sorry, got to go, have to buy the game.
I recommend this game!

I liked the demo enough to buy the game, but I finished it in 2 hours. I like my CE games to last at least 3 hours. Kudos to the devs who can make a game last longer than that.
The game it's self was nice and I liked the storyline. I was bummed out when I realized who the bad person was, and that was the first time I heard the lady's voice.
Do we really need the stereotype characters.
The visual quality can get a bit cartoony at times, but It didn't bother me.
Infact the only thing that did bother me was the fake accent of the lady.
I recommend this game!
