I really enjoyed this game. Well, I'm a senior citizen with low vision, etc and I have to say I loved the story line and especially loved the colour and graphics. I have not been able to play many of the more popular games due to low vision - too much darkness, both in graphics and story line - so this game was a pleasant surprise.
If you're looking for a fairly easy, colourful game this is for you. I really enjoyed playing the game and unfolding the story. :)

Well, I have to say that I enjoyed the few minutes I spent on this cute little game, mainly because it was a change from all the gloomy, dark, monster type games that have been on hand recently, but I liked it. Mind you, the story itself really had very little to do with the actual book, so don't think that it might be following anything like Alice Through the Looking Glass. It only very loosely has any resemblance to with that.
Yes, the HOSs were difficult mainly due to the tiny size of some of the objects but the hints filled up quite quickly. And the puzzles were very easy, but overall, not bad and I enjoyed them.
I didn't click on the smiling Cheshire cat after the first click so can't really comment on that either.
All in all I found it a very entertaining little game, nice bright graphics which I enjoyed very much but with some very tiny objects in the HOS for which I just used the hint button.
I'll buy it. :)
I didn't have the sound on so can't comment on that.
I recommend this game!

When I saw this game based on my favourite Brit show, I knew I would love it. What I love are the bright graphics, the characters and the story line. I'm a fan of the street and for me it was one of the best. For me, a little old lady with declining vision, this was a perfect game and these types of games are few and far between.
I had written a longer, detailed review earlier but my computer froze so I'll not go into detail again here suffice it to say that for this little old lady who loves HOGs, but not the dark, gloomy, wading through snakes, spiders and decaying asylums or mansions variety, this was like a breath of fresh air. Exactly my cup of tea. Mini-games could be skipped, conversations could be skipped, no penalities for clicking and it ran very smoothly.
If I had to make any negative remark, it might just be that the hidden objects themslves were a bit too jumbled. I didn't think that was totally necessary.
But, overall, I loved this game and only wished there were a few more like it. Thank you so much Big Fish!!!!

Well, unlike all the previous reviews, i actually enjoyed this game. I was so anxious to try this new one as I was getting to tired of the dark, gloomy HOGs involving abandoned asylums, crumbling, decaying mansions with spiders, snakes and cobwebs, this was a nice change. I liked the HOS and had no problem with the size and I have poor eyesight. I liked the challenge of never really knowing what to do next but was always able to figure it out. I like this one. I completed the demo and unless a brighter HOG comes out soon, I will buy this one.
I recommend this game!
