The artwork is beautiful, the hops are fun. My only beef was the side game with the fish; it just would not work. It was super frustrating, and my trial ended. But overall a great game.
There’s a fine line between dreams and reality.

This game is truly amazing and beautiful! The artwork, acting, and music are stunning. The only reason I docked one star is one of the side games had a hiccup where I had to skip it..Which was frustrating. A player will see this when they come to the bear. Other than that, I definitely want this in my library!
I recommend this game!

This game was part of an early release demo. With few to few errors, the audience is more children learning to read as there are four modes: regular words, picture, scramble, and mirror mode. The mirror mode is when the identity is flipped, and the words are backward. This game, in particular, is not my cup of tea, as there is no variety. It is simply a search and finds, and within the hour, I could get to page 6 within the allotted time, so for this, it is just the type of game I would pass on versus playing.
I recommend this game!

This game is interesting as this was the first time playing the Paranormal Files series. The "Fatal Flaw" is definitely how condescending some of the mini-games were. Honestly, one does not need a picture to solve a four-piece puzzle. This is just one example of how easy the mini-games were and the reason the dock of one star. However, the game flow was interesting, and the hidden object scenes were different, which provided enough of an enjoyable challenge.
I recommend this game!
Enjoy relaxing gameplay as you solve wonderful vibrant jigsaw puzzles!

If an individual enjoys puzzles, then this game fits the build. Several modes are offered, and there are options of 42-1008. There are also several levels of difficulty. One thing that is an option is also the style. Eight categories have themes: animals, assorted, fantasy, landscapes, love, sealife, travel, and visual art. The artwork is stunning and, when completed, makes a spectacular background for the computer. It was a delightful game overall.
I recommend this game!

This game has docked two stars for the following reasons. The first is when zooming in, the scroll feature is not available to fill in the number, making it difficult to see and finish without using the "?" symbol to complete the picture. The other reason is that some colors are not varied enough to justify a different number to paint. It is a great concept and very relaxing with calming music that after a day of work would not be bad to relax with. Each Painting took me over the time limit allotted for the demo, so the player might enjoy the challenge and detail, but it takes longer than expected for each painting.
Buckle up for a long voyage! Japan awaits!

This game has some neat features. It is a match-play game. However, when you play the levels, you earn coins that allow you to travel to a different location. A puzzle of key areas around Japan details the place while you piece it together. After so many matching games, you are given keys that open up a hidden object game with picture and word modes. The hidden object reminds me of a stunning Lisa Frank artwork.
I recommend this game!

This review is part of a demo that was exclusive before release. I do not mind choosing your adventure. However, I wish the points would not appear; it may have been because I chose the relaxed mode. That said, I enjoyed the uniqueness of the mini-games, the hidden objects were enjoyable, and the concept of the story was fun. I ended up purchasing this game with buy-one-get-one because I enjoyed the art; there were no grammatical issues, and the game's flow was fun.

I wrote this as a special promotion of exclusive access to try before it is released to the public. However, the time of life had me delayed a bit before I could send the review. Firstly, this is not a map of wandering around to discover new things. City of Stories is the title of a game of following a book; yes, there is quite a bit of reading about a storyline. There are unique collectible objects to find within the storyline that offer a different challenge. If you are not in the mood to search and find, no worries; there is an alternative method (match-3) to build coins for the magic garden, which can be purchased throughout gameplay. The magic cards throughout the game are a tarot style that also creates the dynamics. Overall, one thing that I enjoyed about this game was the different mini-games. The mini-parts were not overall hard and were unique to the game. The hidden objects were different enough that purchasing this game was well worth it. While the acting is a bit below average, the game pace of the storyline corresponded with the flow of the game, making for a relaxing game that was truly enjoyable. I also enjoyed that there were no grammatical errors, and each part was meticulously calculated as a part of the game's theme, making for an alternative experience that allows players to become immersed in the storyline. The cartoon-style art is unique enough that an individual can identify the hidden pieces to be found. City of Stories game may be a sleeper, but being able to read throughout gives the feeling of being a part of a story that is not to be missed. This game is genuinely great, and I hope there are more like this.
I recommend this game!

This was a paint-by-number game, and after about five minutes, I was pretty annoyed. The colors are all the same. The music was relaxing, but mostly, all the details were filled in, and all 400 colors were of the same color genre. When the number was filled in, the details filled the color, so it was an elementary game.
