Chloe and Paul investigate the death of a girl, and you will help them finding clues.
The game itself is not challenging or appealing, since it is almost only Hos, locations are repeated a lot, sometimes you have to find different objects, sometimes several of the same object - as several pills, one color at a time, in the same scene.
Mini games well known and easy.
Dialogues between investigators, or with other characters, are very long, written, and you can not skip.
It has stars (hint) to collect, it has a "hand" that indicates what to use in interactive parts.
Well, if you are big fan of HOS, you may like.
I don't recommend this game.

An image, like an owl, dinosaur ... with a thousand micro-objects (in a few different colors). Impossible to see, maybe with a powerful magnifying glass.
It has zoom, which improves a little bit.
Hint can be use as you wish, but it covers a huge area and will slowly focusing on the object to be found, which does not disappear when clicked, just becomes glistening.
When you find the objects, you earn a piece of jigsaw ... I imagine that later will having to assemble ... but I could not stand more than two figures.
Really annoying!!! Maybe HOS addicts like it! I didn't !
I don't recommend this game.

Well, I played and bought the CE, but I repeat: it is a game that really worth it! When is an excellent game like this, I like to play the bonus and have the SG!
Help solve the mystery of the murder of three women!
Excellent cutscenes, very convincing VO, appealing story, perfect graphics, great animation and soundtrack, gorgeous locations, colorful and neat in details.
Three modes of play.
Two kinds of HOS: find 10 of the same type (hammer, chains, etc, and some you have to assemble before) or objects by the shape (and also are interactive - finding an object, leads to another object).
Mini games different from the usual, such as the Scarecrow, entertaining but not very challenging.
Hint also different: instead of "fill", you will finding peacock feathers in the game, and each one is a hint.
In addition you have to collect coins, with which you will buy tools at the shop, and, of course, the pages of the diary of the killer.
A highly well developed game, with many many things to do. Will certainly holds your interest and curiosity!
I had a great time!
I recommend this game!

A game that takes you inside the classic novel "Crime and Punishment."
Well, I'm a big fan of Dostoyevsky's books, so I really enjoyed being able to talk to Raskolnikov, enter his room, the bar, and even play with him.
Cutscene from the beginning is like a book and introduces the characters.
After that, you're in 2058 and will make a trip back in time to unravel the reasons of the murder.
The game itself is not very appealing to anyone who has not read the book, since the atmosphere - extremely well reproduced - of St. Petersburg in 1866 is dark and mysterious, and for being a classic novel, has no "special effects" or great adventure as current games.
The game is not challenging, nor in the mini games or in HOS, except for the size of some objects to be found.
In each scene you have to collect an ax (to earn hints), and: a letter, a candelabra and a feather - to restore book pages.
Anyway, I really liked, so I bought the game, more because of the story than the game itself, and I had a great time!
I recommend this game!

Excellent and entertaining story of gangsters on a mysterious island.
Cutscenes that really worth watching: funny characters, who are real people, excellent VO, great graphics, excellent soundtrack.
This highly interactive game is extremely well developed: scenery has movement all the time, not a game like the others that when the cutscene ends the scene freezes. Very appealing !
Some different and new mini games, not challenging, like "the candles", and some similar to the usual, but with something new, like "fix the light box". Others are very cute, like the carriage and cowboys !
Good amount of highly interactive HOS - you have to find an object to be able to find the next, and some things are hard to find.
Besides the traditional hint, you have a crow to help you to pick objects out of your reach ... but it only helps when you have a rune, so ... be sure to get the runes along the way.
It has activities all the time, the game is very dynamic and things found are soon used (some have to be combined with another in the inventory), without too much back and forth.
A familiar theme - haunted, with different detail - funny gangsters.... Highly recommended!!
I recommend this game!

You are the princess Tyana and will "save the world."
Two play modes: timed and zen. I played timed ... but never finished. In fact, I played until the eighth board! Could not stand it anymore ..
Tutorial the whole time, game is slow, everything takes time: loading, scenes, open the board, scoring table ... annoying.
There are six stages with 10 steps each.
Like all others Match 3, you gain powers to destroy tiles, as will increasing the score, like "the Flame of Osiris", which clear a row, etc..
Nothing challenging, nothing new, nothing interesting, nothing fun, not worth!
I don't recommend this game.

Intro is like comic strip: Eva Sanders goes to Rio at Carnival and ends up having to investigate suspects of a conspiracy.
It is a classic game of HOS - easy. You will finding the necessary things, and using. Even without selecting tutorial has sparkles, and hint explains what you have to do...but...after a few HOS, some tasks done ... I got stuck.
You go back to the lobby of the airport and have to make a cocktail. Ok, the ingredients are in your inventory, you have the key of the cupboard, but has no way to reach again the bar to blend!
Hint does not help this time ... just say you have to make cocktail .. so I thought I had skipped something important, I made another profile and the same thing ... annoying! I stood in place without having to do...impossible to move on!
It has a table on the right, containing: hint, items, goals, inventory, and a case with people and evidence.
It also has frames with the locals (locked or open) that you have been or have to go. Just click and goes into them.
Graphics are clear and colorful, and sound is ok.
I don't recommend this game.

Had not noticed this game yet, but today I played, and despite having read the reviews that it was too short, I found it very pleasant, friendly and fun.
Yes, it is not challenging, but sometimes is good play a game that does not require much thought, but entertains...just to distract!
Graphics are good, music is very calm, HOS enjoyable, colorful and nice locations and fun mini games.
Although it is really short, it's cute, nice, amusing and relaxing, so, I bought it!
I recommend this game!

Caught me from the beginning: cutscene shows the city infected by a virus. Two twins are hospitalized but only one survives. However, she disappeared, and she is the only key to the cure !
Cutscenes are made with real people! I loved it!
Configuration options already shows the superior level of development. You can choose:
- Skip tutorial and help texts
- Speed of filling hint
- Speed of mini game skip
- Display
- Quality (slower or faster computers)
- Three play modes
Excellent graphics, very nice sound, impressive atmosphere, many great locations with plenty to do.
It has a map and a journal.
Good amount of really interactive HOS - each object found helps to find another.
Some mini games are not really challenging, like killing bees or rotate circles to make a figure. Others, despite known, are difficult, as to turn on light bulbs. And there are some new games too, and challenging.
Be sure to collect gold coins along the way, you'll need them to buy things!
I chose to purchase the CE because of the SG and the bonus chapter.
Highly recommended! Assurance of a outstanding and entertaining weekend!!!!!
I recommend this game!

Cutscene already holds you: a group of furious dogs attack a man who falls off a cliff!
Game very well developed, great story with good following, very good sound and VO, excellent crisp graphics, appealing characters (as Pippa, the cute little dog, and its owners, two children ... and the interesting furious dogs), very appropriate atmosphere and gorgeous locations. The only place that I did not like was the cave with snakes ... arghhh! I hate snakes ... and there has a lot! Reminded me the movie Indiana Jones!
Interactive HOS, with good visibility, entertaining mini games although some are already well known.
Three play modes. It has a journal and a map. The map takes you straight to the place you want, just clicking on it.
One thing I loved is that, different from other games, you can hold an object and click on the place or thing that you will use it ... it does not "fall back" in your inventory to be picked up again!!
The game itself is not challenging, as well as HOS and mini games are not difficult, but it is an excellent entertainment and provides plenty of fun.
I chose to buy the CE for having SG and Bonus play!
I recommend this game!
