Don't usually give reviews but this is a great Christmas solitaire game. Have only started playing but love the mini games and story line in with the up/down solitaire.
The Christmas music is great, I don't usually like listening to the music but these Christmas carols certainly will bring back memories for some people.
Great game to finish off your day or to play after other more intense games.
Love it!
I recommend this game!

I don't usually write reviews but felt I had to address the bad ratings from other BFG users.
I enjoyed this game as much as the other ones in the series. There is a map which you can use to switch locations quickly (always a + in my book) and hints are also well done.
No maybe there is no logic in some actions to some people, but when is everything in a game logical. This is a game, not the real world. I didn't find anything that jumped out as being totally unbelievable or nonsensical.
Try the game for yourself. Then you can decide to buy or trash.
I recommend this game!

I don't usually take the time to write a review. I am a big HOG fan but like to play for relaxation. Loved the map, I don't like to have to click 15 times to get to a location and another 15 to get back. Overall I rate this a great game.
I recommend this game!

Hated this game. Bought it with game credits, sight unseen, since it was a MCF game. I think I'm on page 70 of strategy guide and will probably never finish playing this game. What a disappointment after the previous MCF game. The strategy guide is terrible, the blog is more helpful. If you really have to have the latest MCF game, don't waste your money on the Collector's Edition, buy the regular one, on sale if you can.
I don't recommend this game.
