But so marvellous! It isa straight forward HOG with interactive HOS and not too many of them. The HOS have more items to pick up than most HOGs though (15 different items and usually 3 of at least one item) and can be quite challenging. The graphic is superb and really adds to the atmosphere. I am a little bit fed up with collectibles and morphing objects and this was a nice pause from that. I bought it on a weekly sale and I must say that was a real bargain!
I really should hate these games but like a lot of other people already have said-I just cannot stop playing them. This is very long and has some new features like "neverending clutter" that is more like tetris-you compete with yourself to get higher and higher scores. The option menue is impressiv-you can really customize it and you can change it whenever you want depending on what cluttermode you play. It is great entertainment....but I do recommend setting an alarm clock...suddenly it is way past midnight :)

This is a point and click adventure that is one of the best ones. It could be much longer but that is just because I love it so much! It has wonderful charachters a funny and thrilling story line and the cartoonished graphics is great. I actually played this one on my android tablet but I am sure it is just as good on a PC!
I like to play untimed, yeah I know but time mood stresses me out. This is a super game for us who likes it untimed because after you hit around the first 15-20 lvls you actually can fail even whitout time because you have chosen the wrong strategy! So even untimed this masterpiece is a challenge and has a great story and lots of extras to collect!

I totally disagree with them sayin they´ve played this before! I´ve played hundreds of games and this is absolutely new to me! And it is not dark at all! The graphics are beautiful and clear and the HOPs are innovative and funny. I agree though it is not for beginners...I´ve already used the hint button several times but that is just a challenge. I really love this game!
I have played all the Sophia games and this one doesn´'t even include her but is my top favourite! The story is spelndid, the graphics and voice overs alike! I just loved this!

I love word games but this was pretty awful! Since I live in Sweden I started with Scandinavia and although it is marked with the Swedish flag all questions were about Denmark and thankyou gamemakers for naming Copenhagen the landmark of everything cultural and historical in Scandinavia, among other strange facts. And here I was thinking it was a shared event with Oslo and Stockholm. If this world explorer have as many incorrect facts in the rest of the game I don´t really see any point to play it?

I've played all four and up until now the first one (venice) has been my favourite. I do not get the negative reviews on this one? This is far the best! Beautiful graphics (yes it is a painted story) and great voiceovers, thrilling story and a great variety of HOS and puzzles! I'm a grown up so love the scary bits (not for younger children) and as always you get to make out your own little scene with your coins!
I just bought this on sale and what a bargain! It is a bit like an interactive book/movie, all about ghosthunters with lots of cutscenes that keep the story going! The HOS are very different from other games, since you're not supposed to find named or shaped things but things associated with a key word or associated with eachother! The graphics could be clearer I guess but it is still easy to find the objects and the blurryness adds to the ghostly feeling after a while. The voiceovers on the other hand are excellent! Want something out of the regular? Try this one!

Being middleaged this is a great game. Not for children but for us that watch crime series on the telly. The sleuthing has something extra to it and it is a HOG and in the same time not that at all! You have to interview the suspects and confront them with the evidence and make your choice. The game do contain adult material but it also have a serious social claim.I really loved it! Also it is a game you mustn't play straight through, you just solve one of the crimes when you feel like it whitout missing out on the story or forget what you were looking for!
