There is not much new about this game, it feels like a combo of other games. Tents, buildings and greenhouses, little gardens etc. Build, collect and upgrade. I got bored with this pretty quickly.
I don't recommend this game.

If you have played TMGs for a couple of years, you will recognize the setting and graphics from games before. It still moves slower than other games and feels and looks a little bit clunky. You are the boss and assign tasks to employers that you hire.They research for items to sell, advertise and study to improve their skills. But nothing else is going on. They all do it sitting down, they only get up to give a pep talk to each other. No customers coming in, no watercooler break at least not in the 1 hour trial. So you just click on them and click again to assign task and wait a long time for the little task bar to fill up. Much potential but not really thought through if it is suppose to get you hooked after 1 hour. Maybe if I have a free game available but otherwise I pass on directly buying it.
I don't recommend this game.

While the rest of this game is not really different then from others in this category, collect resources, build and upgrade buildings, this one is set to the time of the wonders of Hercules.So you get to meet a lazy Hercules that lets his servants clear the roads for him and the Medusa that turns the Minotaurs to stone. After all he has to keep his strength when it comes to the mini games such as fighting Hydras and little crabs...So the story is neat and the graphics are cute and easy to see but the music is what really gets me in a funny way. Usually the music goes a bit with the time it is set in and at first I hear what sounds a little bit like Greek inspired music. And I think the Music director on this game really wanted to avoid playing the same music on every level and all of a sudden it switches to like musical themed tunes, West side story perhaps or Seven brothers, seven brides etc? Anyway, it kept me bobbing along and laughing during a rather fairly game. I love TMGames and its been a while but this game does not stand out enough to say that this is one I have been waiting for. It passes time and I like Greek mythology, I might buy it. But it is nothing really new.
I recommend this game!

The game is cute, music is pleasant and the graphics are crisp. You get to build up a magical kingdom by playing match 3 in timed or relaxed mode. But it takes a long time to get enough points for the power ups, such as hammer or added time and by the time I got them, the actual playtime was over. you can replay the level with added 5 minutes.I know that games like this should take a while but if I can not get to the hammer etc in time then what is it good for?Also it takes a good amount of coins to build up things in the kingdom itself and each building has at least two levels. After a while of playing I got bored. But the rest, story, music is excellent and if you have enough time or patience then I recommend this game.

I am sorry but this is for kids in my opinion. Simple graphics, not very detailed. Hum-ho music to go with it and way too simple. I am sure kids will love it for the simplicity but this is not for me. You can pre click the actions which is nice but this does not motivate me to buy it.
I recommend this game!

I do not even have to play it to see that it is always the same. Do not get me wrong, I love the info that comes with it and I really like that they changed the graphics and some sound effects from the earlier games but...clicking on the wagons to make them go, feeding the wild boar, chopping trees, building a bank etc and constantly clicking on each wagon is just not anything new. It does not matter if the city looks Roman or Parisian...it still is the same thing.Get the supply, or buy it and then send it on its way...boring. The only thing worth buying is the information that goes with it but I can look that up for free somewhere else.However, if you are new to these games, you might enjoy them but I am pretty sure that the next one will not offer many new things, again.
I recommend this game!

Huge fan of this game but somehow I thought that it would bring a lot more new things to the table. Reading the reviews it does not seem to be so. I only played for 1 hour but I was not that inpressed. Cute as always graphics and music but other than jumping in the rabbit hole and using the elephant for the water.... really nothing new so far.I also did not like that the game seems to have played in a somewhat less modern time and I liked that but all of a sudden there is TV? I will buy it but I do not think I will buy the CE.
I recommend this game!

I like good match 3 games and this one is combined with building things for an emperor. Powerups are great and the graphics are cute. The moving of the tiles does not always work smoothly but the things you need to do are plenty and challenging. But I dislike it for what many probably think is a silly reason..I happen to like whales and dragons. They sure could have come up with some other threats that warrant extra levels...Music reminds me of a show that went underneath cities etc. Not sure if I wanna buy even so I like it that I do not have to play like 10 levels before I can build or upgrade something....not sure yet...
I recommend this game!

I prefer the first one. The graphics are a bit too small and less defined than the first one. Love the music and the story but this constant clicking to send the person to the building and then click again to gather the resources....sorry but that gets too much after a while and then all those little bubbles start piling up and the screen gets really full... Love TMG but at least for right now I will pass on this one. The basics are the same, gather resources, build buildings and fight off dragons by building towers. Not sure if it was my PC only but it glitched in the graphics a lot so that I had to restart game.Too bad because I am always happy when good TMG come around.
I don't recommend this game.

back to the good old times....or maybe not. I am very excited about any TMG that comes along and this one is good unless you have been playing them for a long time. it feels a bit retro. The jewellery theme was there before, the dragging of the people to the seats is just exhausting. And the constant clicking to refill and pick up stuff is way overdone. I agree with others that said that instead of those not much needed powerups, I rather would have build and beautified the store itself. Music is ok, graphics are nice and the making of your own necklace is a nice touch. But all in all I do not think I will buy this one because just like many games, after a while it gets repetitive. The store changes but the people are the same and the thief thing gets old quickly too. maybe there is more after the one hour trial but not sure I am sticking around to see it.
I recommend this game!
