I can't get into this one due to the poor graphics and sound. The scenes are boring and difficult to manage. Many of the items that you have to find are so tiny and not intuitive at all. It winds up being a lot of scrolling around and random clicking on things while you hope to find something to use. Seriously, try this one before you buy it to see if it is the kind of game you are looking for.
It has been a long time since I enjoyed a game this much. I miss the Azadas, Dream Chronicles quality of games. But this one is enjoyable and the puzzles have subtle twists that make them new and fun.
I personally enjoy the realistic actors. If you don't, then this game is not for you. Sure, they aren't of Meryl Streep quality, but they are cheesy and fun. The puzzles are good and I really like the HOPs require interaction with the scene, not just seek and find. That being said, the game was short. I didn't particularly enjoy the things that I could "buy" with the dollars to be used in the gift shop, and the Bonus Chapter was boring. Use your free game code and get the standard version.
This game was very pretty. The story is ok. I play a LOT of these and this one was memorable for the wonderful colors and the length of play. Games fairly challenging and some variation in the HOPs kept me interested. Story not so much, but not bad either.
I play lots and lots of these games and this one is still the best. I love the voice over, the characters, the story. The game play is creative and just challenging enough to keep it fun. Plus, it came out before the only way to get the trinkets in each scene was to buy the Collector's Edition. Highly recommend.
This is far from my favorite game. There are several things that make it less fun to play. First, it doesn't let you lock open the items bar so the darn thing is popping up and down the whole time. Second, there are no collectibles or achievements even in the Collector's Edition. Third, the movement in the game is awkward and the map isn't helpful. Finally, the instructions on the games are not clear, so it takes a lot of trial and error just to figure out what you are supposed to do.
It's OK if you have a free game, so get the standard version, but don't pay for Collector's Edition. Not worth it.
