Its a good little game, a nice break from the common styles. Graphics were great, music was pleasant. Character movement and lip syncing were stiff and comical. It only took me 2 1/2 hours to play on Expert mode. So if you just want a quick but enjoyable game, I recommend this.

I thought this game was fantastic. It was a great sequel. The graphics and action were great, the story kept me interested, and I wanted to see how it would end. I loved the puzzles, some were really challenging which was awesome. I wish there were more games that had actual puzzles where you had to think and strategize. That being said, it took 20-30 seconds to load each page, and that really slowed things up. By the end, I just wanted it to be over because I was tired of waiting for the next scene to load.
I recommend this game!

I just finished playing the game and it was alot of fun!!! The story flowed nicely, there was very little back and forth, the HOGs were not filled with random junk, and the minigames were new and clever. Can't believe I missed this one when it came out. Well done!!!

So glad I gave this game a try. It was a breath of fresh air given the current overblown games that have no challenge. It was quite long relative to other games, I spent about 6 hours on it. No back and forth. Yay! And there are many morphing objects to collect. I only got 20/50 of them so I can't wait to play it again to get them. Enjoy!

I really enjoyed this game. It was visually amazing, the story was original, and the game play was challenging. The game is mostly adventure/minigames with some FROGs. The minigames were interesting as well. Hurrah for these developers, please give us more!!!
I recommend this game!

I enjoyed the first version so much, and was expecting this one to be as good or better, so I bought it right away. It was interesting at the beginning while you figure out how to play it, collect money, food and building supplies to rebuild Camelot. But once you do all that, halfway through the 300 levels, the characters just go away and there is nothing left to do but play their solitaire game (not traditional solitaire) for another 150 levels. After I realized that nothing else was going to happen, I gave up. It was a mistake to buy it.
I don't recommend this game.

When I played the demo, I liked it but wasn't sure it was worth the purchase price. I went ahead and bought it, and boy what a wonderful game this is! You go to 5 different worlds with a sci-fi/futuristic theme.The graphics are stunning. The HOS are crisp and not over-cluttered. The mini-puzzles were great, they weren't easy but just took some patience to think about the solutions. I took my time enjoying the beautiful sci-fi scenes, as they were gorgeous. It probably took me 5-6 hrs to complete the main game. I haven't done the bonus chapter yet. Finding the morphing objects was just enough difficulty. I did consult the strategy guide several times. This will probably be one of the best of the year!
I recommend this game!

Wow, what a refreshing change to play a game like this! Interesting story, great graphics and sound, music is wonderful, light on HOs. I tried this game based on reading the favorite reviews of a BF contributor. I bought it after 15 minutes of play. It's a very long game, I've been playing on and off for 3 days a couple of hours each day and I don't think I'm even halfway through. It keeps my attention, I can't wait to see what happens next! Thanks Developers! Encore! Encore!

What a surprise when I bought this as the Weekly Deal. It's nothing like the other Margrave stories. It's a fantasy story with quite a cast of funny characters and lots of medium - to -hard puzzles. Don't be put off by the unattractive one-eyed girl. It's really worth trying out. I played it for a few hours and had to stop because my brain was exhausted! But can't wait to get back to it.
I recommend this game!

The storyline was interesting. The graphics and sound are well done. I really liked the attention to detail for the cathedral, it was stunning. The minigames kept my attention. A bit too much back and forth, but there is a jump map. It is not a game for those who don't like scary images.
I recommend this game!
