Definitely buy the CE! The first thing that grabbed me about this game was the MIni-Games. They are SO unique and creative! This game does not just re-hash old formulas. And yet what a hoot when the designers added a Match 3! LOL
The locations are incredible. And NEVER take anything for granted! Sometimes there are 2 objects you need to pick up in one zoom-in. And the length is VERY good - which is one of the first things I look for in a CE.

Mystery Trackers wins my vote again! The graphics are great.
I love games that make you think. I love games that make you remember many locations. This one has it. And I love games that are LONG! The Bonus Game was as good as the main game. Buy the CE!

Based on the demo
First I have to say I am not a big fan of spoken dialogue. There is a lot of voice-over that you have to listen to, you can't skip it. That said, this is an interesting game. The HOS have glowing light sources in them, sometimes making the objects hard to find. I enjoyed the tasks, and the journal really helps by letting you know when tasks are complete, and you can see when you've missed a step.You have to travel to different locations to completes tasks-lots of fun. I have no idea how long the game is, but I would like to play the full game.

This is an excellent game. Thanks BF for offering this for $3.00! I don't know how I missed this game the first time.
The developers had a complete vision. The music, sync sound FX, story, and stereo atmospheres were so well blended.
At first I thought "Oh no! Not another lost sister story!" - but this game breaks all the rules. Don't be fooled - don't treat this game like so many others that look like this one! READ all notes and DON'T skip any dialogue! clues,clues,clues!
Yep, there are a ton of locations - but you don 't need a map - the Hint does it all.
Speaking of maps - the map in the subway car can be used to skip to another location even before the map is complete! Cool!
This is a keeper!

Let me get the only thing I didn't like out of the way. I bought the SE and it ended in a mega-cliffhanger! I was all revved up but when I got to the "end" I'm told I need the CE!! I should have read more from my fellow contributers, eh?
Now, the things Ioved ...
ambiece, syncFX, acting, music, length, locations = 100% !
mini-games ain't easy & the most original I've seen = 100% !
I should have bought the CE ..... sigh

I found this game highly entertaining. It is a good, long adventure with lots of different locations. It kept me busy for hours. I kept getting the ships mixed up - but that's just me. The Bonus feature was moderately long. I think the SE would be just as fine as the CE. The music is very familiar from other games by these devs, and got a bit repetitive. The mini-games were varied and interesting. The HOS used the same locations too much. The characters looked like they were drawn by a 10-year-old. But - really - I DID like it!
I recommend this game!

I was very intrigued by all of my fellow reviewer's bad rating of this game - so I had to try it for myself. Wellllllll ....... it isn't the worst game I've ever played on Fish. I mean it's not Ishtar!
I got really annoyed by the LONG no-cursor penalty whenever I clicked too much. And there are HOS sites that you see over and over - sometimes asking for the exact same items you were asked for before. Anyhoo- try it for yourself. But PLEASE don't buy it before you try it!

I enjoyed this game, although it isn't the hardest. It was very pleasurable to play. And it gets top rank for length - one of my biggest faves. I liked the storyline (for a change!) and neither the voice-overs nor the music was distracting or inappropriate.
Lots and lots of HOS - so you might not like it if you don't like HOS.

I liked this game very much. I like the challenge of travelling to many locations. But could somebody make the villain shut up?
The length of the game is wonderful-something I always look for. Enjoy!

This game is as good as Midnight on the Mississippi! I really admire Mumbo Jumbo games. They get better and better.
The graphics ans SPFX are excellent. I never think about adjusting the music in Midnight Mystery games. It's so well woven into the entire experience. This is a definite buy!
