The game is very well designed, very crisp and colorful pictures, fun characters, especially the cute little old man. Excellent voice over. To help George, the old man, not to lose his title of Duke, the grandchildren are going to help him.The HOS are very clear, interactive, but very easy. Hint is the cutest! The dog barks when you approach the object. Due to the story, pictures, humor and a low level of difficulty, is a perfect game to play with children.

Really love Jane Austen and particularly the book "Pride and Prejudice". I watched the movie over and over again ...I had a great time "playing the role of Elizabeth Bennet" !
Graphics are cute and colorful, although a bit "stuck". (OK! As a book!) Very pleasant sound. No voice over...you have to read, just like a book!
BUT..the great and outstanding differential of this game is: you write the story together, ie, you choose the fate of Elizabeth, and consequently, of other characters too! The story will develop depending on her attitude in certain circumstances, or on her weekly activities (increasing or decreasing her energy, kindness, sensibility, wit, etc), and ...these choices are up to you!
You can play many times and always change the ending (has nine). And now? Would you change Elizabeth & Mr Darcy's relationship?

Completely different from most games, which are about "suspense, fear, fright",... this game is done with plenty of humor.
The king wants his daughter to marry a strange and evil man, who offers a lot of money to the kingdom. Desperate, she calls Munchausen to help her. When he enters the scene, you begin to have great fun! Have fun helping him to come down from a tree ... or when he needs something that is with a pigeon! (He did not throw a rock as in other games!)
- Funny storyline, crisp and colorful graphics, very good sound. - Voice over is great - sometimes sounds serious and concentrate, or sweet and calm as in a fairy tale...and sometimes, ironic and funny (like Munchausen's voice).
HOS are very different, actually are "associations" - a sidebar with objects that you'll match with another in the scene, as "dice and playing cards", or "hedgehog and cactus", etc.
Mini games are new and entertaining. It has some known, but with "something" more!
I played only demo, but it was enough to know that this game is amusing, entertaining and greatly well done.

Fantastic game, exciting, motivating with lot of challenges. The amazing story takes place in Egypt, with great, colorful and crisp graphics, very lively voice over, and good sound.
Match3 are in the underground temples of gods as: Isis, Thoth, Anubis, etc..
In each temple the kind of game is different, ie, widely varied and very entertaining. Each temple has several phases, but not need finish one to go into another. Completing some phases, another temple unlocks. That makes the game not tiring ... you can vary the temple and consequently the kind of match.

These amusing story and the funny-faces vampires reminded me "The Fearless Vampire Killers", originally "Dance of the Vampires", by Polanski.
Great graphics - colorful, vivid and crisp-, amazing characters (especially the butler, the maid and the dog), outstanding voice over, impressive atmosphere, excellent sound. HOS are not difficult, but they are entertaining and appropriate to the theme. Several enjoyable puzzles.
Although not challenging, the game provides 24 chapters of pure enjoyment !!

Attractive storyline: helping Fiona, the cute little girl, who was trapped by "Shade" in a different world. Very pleasant voice over. Gorgeous locations, crisp and colorful. Very appealing atmosphere !
Yes, it has monsters !!... but without screams, no strident sounds, not dark and gloomy scenes. HOS are different from usual, almost all have 15 to 20 of same kind of object (flowers, butterflies, etc.) to find. Visually beautiful and colorful, but not challenging. Instead of hint, it has a "guide" that gives tips for the next action to take. In HOS has hint (the little eye, on the bottom right). Many beautiful locations with a lot of things to do... many puzzles totally new and unusual ! Really enjoyable game.

Very good storyline: begins in 1988 with Jack the Ripper (drawings in sepia). Nowadays, visiting London, you will find clues from murders of the past (colorful). Very well done graphics, nice sound. Excellent atmosphere.
You really feel in London, in places as Picadilly Circus, St Paul's Cathedral, Tower Bridge, Pubs, etc. in 360º!!! In addition, you will find objects and play some mini games that will give you the keys for the investigation.
It has a map and a journal with stamps of the locations, chapters of the game and mini games to play again.
I had a very good time !
I recommend this game!

To escape from the ship Emerald Star, you will play several interactive HOS, in many locations inside the ship. The most interesting is that objects are not just described, sometimes what appears is its function, (such as "Preceded CDs" to cassette tapes), or you have to interact (such as "Put spider in Jar").
Each level finished, has a mini game like Mahjong, match 3, etc., and you will earning tools to help you to escape from the ship, as crowbar, pieces of a map, etc.. Enjoyable and relaxing game. Not challenging.
Do not forget to collect anchors to unlock the bonus. Two anchors in each HOS !

Even being a classic HOG, I enjoyed it (and purchased it) because I really like mythology, and the storyline is charming, takes place in ancient Greece, and characters are the Greek gods: Athena, Zeus, Hermes, Hephaestus, etc. The biggest difference between this and the other classical HOG is: Gift of Zeus provides a captivating tale based on Greek mythology, with a sequence, ie, scenes are not "thrown" with no connection. Graphics are very well done, cute ambience, colorful and crisp scenes. Not challenging, but very pleasant.
