I agree with all previous comments plus. Very simplistic - more suited for children as far as I could tell since I didn't get past the third level. The reason being that in 13 minutes the game froze 3 times ( 1st time after 6 min., 2nd time 5 min., and 3rd time 2 min.)and I had to go to task manager to shut it down and then restart. The colours were good and the sound was not bad. However, overall it was not very challenging even on timed.
I don't recommend this game.

Based on the trial I very much enjoyed this game. It is by far the best online jigsaw game I have played. I think it is probably as close to a hands on puzzle as you can get. Unfortunately, I had a few interruptions but did manage to get through the first puzzle and started on the second. I didn't get a chance to try all the options, but did appreciate the ability to chose the number of pieces. There is a timed option if it isn't challenging enough for you. My main criticism is that the background (at least in the first puzzle) was too dark. However, when I discovered I could zoom in and out using the mouse wheel it did make things easier to see. I also liked the fact that you could leave the pieces anywhere on the screen. This made sorting quite easy. I suggest that if you enjoy doing jigsaws give this one a try. It is a definite buy for me.
I recommend this game!

I must qualify this review by saying I only managed to play 30 min. which was about as much eye strain as I was willing to invest. The pieces were far too small (and as the game progressed became even smaller) and some were difficult to differentiate from each other due to colour similarities, and blending into the background. I found this made it difficult to plan drops.
The rest of the game was not all that bad - fairly easy, music o.k., and storyline standard.
Not a lot to recommend it but not enough bad points to not. There are many much better ones out there.

I really quite enjoyed this game based on the hour trial. Yes, the graphics are cartoonish but well done. I liked the soundtrack - sometimes slightly creepy - but suited the scene. The HOS are sometimes rather messy but not terribly difficult and not visited more than once. Puzzles are different and challenging. There is no map, interactive or otherwise, but is not needed as you continually move forward. Overall, a nice easy going game. Will probably buy with a punch card coupon. Give it a try - you never know!

What a great game. I do love ERS games and am quite often tempted to buy without trying them but I have a very strict rule about that. I think this game is one of the very best they have put out. I can not recommend this game highly enough and would give it more stars if I could. Keep in mind this is based on the trial only but I have yet to be disappointed by this bunch. If it were not the end of the month I would be downloading now but do not plan on filling my card by tomorrow so will wait until June. Please give it a try and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Way to go ERS for your fiftieth game. You just keep outdoing yourselves.
I recommend this game!

What a fun and funny game! I am not a TM game player but I did thoroughly enjoy this one. I actually laughed out loud at some of the characters. It is not too challenging and would be especially good for family play. Give it a try and make sure to have your sense of humour at the ready.
I recommend this game!

This is not a very good game. The graphics are uninspiring as is the story. Hidden object scenes are not challenging enough for adults and probably too much for kids. A game aimed for family entertainment over the Easter weekend is a great idea but I think that with the sophistication of the games that kids play these days it will bomb with most families. It really is quite archaic.
I don't recommend this game.

I was not very impressed with this game. I love a good M3 but am not quite sure that is what this is. In fact I am not sure how you would qualify it. The instructions are not terribly helpful but it is not a difficult game to figure out - fill in the circles with the correct colours the correct number of times in the allotted number of moves or less. Visually it was pretty bland - too pastelly(?) to be of much interest. The sound was terrible. I kept turning it down as I found it very annoying. I can only assume that the level of challenge becomes harder as you advance. I only made it to level three before I nearly fell off my chair with boredom and quit. I will not not recommend this game as I think some will enjoy it. I just don't happen to be one of them.
I recommend this game!

Elephant strikes again! This is a really lovely game. The visuals are very nice - love the live actors. Even though you can't move forward during the voice overs without skipping they are a nice touch. It is not a game to be played as fast as possible but to be savoured. HOs and puzzles are not too challenging which makes it relaxing and not frustrating. Love the story - something different and interesting. I couldn't believe it when my hour trial was over. The purchased game should be ready to play by now so am off to enjoy myself for another hour or so. Thanks devs and BF.
I highly recommend this game. It is definitely worth a try.

I was expecting to find this game frustrating and thought I would probably last only a short time. Surprise! I quite enjoyed it. There are no instructions but it is a really easy game to figure out as there is nothing complicated about it. All you have to do is decide when to release the rock from the balls mouth in order to knock out all the tanks and/or helicopters - or as they call them "birds". You begin each level with three rocks and can earn more by hitting the ball or making a great shot. The point is to knock out all the obstacles before you run out of rocks. If you do not succeed you are given the opportunity to try again. I am basing this review on 30 mins. of play and will go back to finish the hour after supper. Am not sure if I will buy at full price or not but I do recommend trying this game - it is something different from all the HOGs and adventure games.
I recommend this game!
