A very consistent story, fluid, no lull, level of challenge never boring, beautiful scenery, realistic characters movements or gesture ; I enjoyed it from the beginning to the end, and I bought the collector edition for the additionnal challenges.
I recommend this game!

Do not waste your time !
Slow, boring - you can't even skip any part -, and old fashioned ; made by a beginner designer and/or game maker ? I played 15 mn, then uninstalled.
I don't recommend this game.

the music is sooo boring ! The characters are badly defined, they do not have any personnality, and the storyline is superficially outlined. The accumulation of long lists of hiden objects do not save this game
I don't recommend this game.

This is one of these games from what I call a "New generation": not a revolution, technically limited, but an interesting evolution. As in the Italian Affair, the storyline is far more consistent, the plot more attractive, arousing your curiosity, the characters show more personnality (i.e. in some games, you have dialogs with choices in answers). It seems well balanced. A few reservations: please, stop the introduction with a writer seen from behind or a hand on a phone, and enough of the initial carriage or car !
I recommend this game!

I really enjoyed the free sample version: it combines several kind of minigames as HO, shapes, marble popper, and other brain teasers. Difficulty is well balanced, sometimes easy, or far more difficult, calling for skip. Dialogues are funny, so are characters. Just try it, I'm looking for your input !
I recommend this game!

A very good, long, hidden object game, with a real storyline, three levels of difficulty, enough challenge for anyone, I think. The mini games are not repetitive at all, hard enough to make you think a lot, or...skip. Pictures are detailed and esthetically pleasing, music is never boring. Very clever game. I enjoyed it a lot.
I recommend this game!

Graphics, voices, animations are nice, new, interesting. But battle mode sucks: the mode is not clear, and the challenge is too quickly progressing ; so it is too easy to skip it. Hypnosis sequences could be boring, but you can get over it quickly by clicking. Sad, could have been an original game...

In adventure timed mode, a classical 3 match game, too classical, less fun than Hidden wonders of the Depths, soon hard, and quickly boring except for the challenge...
