Big Fish has done it again - given us a great game. I am buying this immediately. I like HOS where you have to go outside the HOS to get items you need within it. Very Clever.
Sound & graphics are wonderful - and the flow of the storyline within the game is seamless. This is an elegant game - not the run-of the-mill at all! Enjoy!
I recommend this game!

This is a beginner's game - and it would really help if you were enamoured with the Pickers. I tried it for about 10 minutes - but my hand got sore constantly clicking on Skip Dialogue!
I don't recommend this game.

I enjoyed the demo...but like alot of folks I had the feeling the length wasn't going to be good enough for my liking. I am taking other reviewers advice and wait for the SE.
I recommend this game!

Bravo! A sequel that is worthy of "The Void". I played the demo for about 10 minutes before I bought the SE. I just might buy the CE, too!
If you don't like having to travel to many, many locations - this is not the game for you. I loved it. This ranks with my (so far) 3 favourite BF games. It's wonderfully long and absorbing.
Even the CE was TOTALLY worth the money!
I recommend this game!

When I started the demo, I wasn't sure about this game. Then it started to grab me. So I bought it. It's a good, long game - something I always look for. Once you get used to the Time Machine for hopping around - it's not bad at all. It can even help you. Just don't count on it for everything.
Maybe it's my eyes, but I found the graphics in the HOS's made the items a bit hard to find. Not a big deal. I had fun playing - and there were a few challenges!
I recommend this game!

The problem with this game is the name. If it had been called anything except Azada I don't think it would have received such bad reviews. The only thing connecting this game to the previous Azada games is the logo! I doubt the creators of Azada created this game.
The expectations were just too high. We all thought it would be a true sequel to the Azada games - and in the Azada style. When it wasn't - disappointment led to bad reviews.
It's quite a good adventure/puzzle game. I'm going to recommend this game - call it "The Mystery of the Spooky Octopus" - or something.
I recommend this game!

This was a very entertaining game. I enjoy having to navigate all over the locations, and this game has great locations. There are many obstacles to remember as play goes on. It is fairly long - I am going to buy the CE. If you have arachnophobia - watch out! I am always happy when the dialogue isn't audible! The music is good, the graphics are wonderful. I think it's hysterical what the last talisman is! How 21st century!
I recommend this game!

The trial version looked very interesting ..... unfortunately ......
this was one of those times when the letdown was disappointing. It was so easy that I never even thought of using the CE walkthrough. If you think you might like this game, don't buy the CE.

After playing this game (and the fabulous "Enimatis:The Ghosts of Maple Creek") I am never going to give any game 5 stars unless they match the elegance, creativity, challenge, and all out FUN of these two games!
Samhain is what I'm looking for as an expert player. The locations are wonderful. The challenge to remember many tasks is what keeps a game interesting to me.
There is a bit of a time lag when you choose a new location or HOG, but I can live with it when the game is just so good!

I just finished playing Enigmatis. It is by far one of the top three games I have ever played on Bigfish! Fantastic! Every aspect of this game is superb. All of the things I usually skip
(cut scenes), or mute (voice-overs and dialogue) - I didn't even think of skipping or muting! Who'd have thunk it? Music can be very annoying when it is mediocre or repetitive - but in this game the music was dramatic and beautiful. I can't wait for the Grudzinski brothers to produce the sequel!
I recommend this game!
