The most boring hidden object game I've ever played. To say it's repetitive, and elementary, is an understatement. Thank you Big Fish, for allowing us to try the games before we waste our hard earned money. The developers of this series should move on to something challenging.
I don't recommend this game.

I can't stand a game that will not save your progress when you wish to exit mid-level. When you go back to play the game, you have to start the level all over again.
Also, around level 6 or 7, the board was divided into 3 completely individual sections, with crates to break in each by matching 3 adjacent tiles. But one section (in the middle) was inaccessible because there were NO MATCHES TO BE MADE from the very start of the level. NONE. EVER. Epic fail in the development of the game.
NOT A BUY.
I don't recommend this game.

Too many things wrong with this game that it isn't a buy for me.
To name a few:
- obscure objects (you need flashlight for many of them)
- sometimes you have to double/triple click an object before it works
- rotating puzzle pieces to fit is like running in slow motion
- clues are mislabelled (telescope/binaculars?)

I am becoming increasingly disappointed at some of the mundane games that are coming out of Big Fish.
I don't recommend this game.

These Park Ranger games are becoming old and boring. There are few features added, or updates to gameplay made from previous Park Ranger games. Something fresh is needed.

This game hasn't got much more to offer than any of the other games in the series. One feature I did like was that I was in control of what mode I wanted to play in. Riddle, Scramble, Word, Missing Vowels etc.
My biggest disappointment is that in every chapter, you are looking for the same objects: Harp, binoculars, bird, seagull, ruler, although the object style may differ. A phone might be an old-style receiver or cell phone (example).
This is just a another run-of-the-mill hidden object game that really hasn't got enough going for it that I want to use a game credit.
I don't recommend this game.

This game is pretty much up to par with others in the series. The storyline is fairly linear, based on the trial version. And what I liked about it is that you don't have to have an imagination for wizards, magic and strange gadgets to figure out what to do.
What I found annoying was the voice overs that you can't mute. Bad acting, and I feel totally superfluous.
I recommend this game!

The graphics weren't bad, the objects weren't impossible to find. But my problem with the scenes is they all looked pretty much the same. Buildings and scenery varied, but color scheme did not. Buildings were all sand colored, trees the same greens, the sky never varied. I just found there wasn't enough variation to make the game interesting to play.
I don't recommend this game.

The hidden object puzzles are o.k. but you will need coke glasses or a good imagination to find things.
Where this game falls apart are the mini-games. Repetitive. There is this one puzzle where you have to move the blocks around to form a cruise ship. THAT PUZZLE REPEATS SO MANY TIMES DURING THE GAME PLAY. What's worse, if your bored with the mini games, the skip time is over 2 mins. I think most people know they don't like the game within, oh, I don't know, 30 seconds.
I won't buy another Vacation Adventures game. Don't buy this one. It's free on the BF website.
I don't recommend this game.

Not a bad game, but some of the objects are EXTREMELY difficult to see, almost impossible.
One thing I disliked about the game was the annoying sound affects. A duck quacking every 10 seconds, a chain saw starting up every 10 seconds, some chirping thing on the sidelines throughout every scene. I reminded me of a dripping tap in the middle of the night. Drip, Drip, Drip, Drip, Drip.
I recommend this game!

The pluses - the graphics are o.k., clearer than many detailed HO games, lots of puzzles to choose from.
The biggest problem I have with this game it takes FOREVER to move onto another state. For instance, Arizona. There are 5 locations. I've got about 4,000,000 points and I still can't proceed because you have to find shileds, cats, robots, only available in the word hidden objects. You have to cycle through 5+ other repetitive puzzle games just to get back the a word puzzle to gather the shields etc. Even when the game tells you have found all the shields, you have to start over to find the robots you missed. TEDIOUS, TO THE POINT OF B-O-R-I=N=G. I am tired of going over the same locations over and over and over to find the same things. If you want frustration and stagnation, buy this game. The repetition is ridiculous.
I don't recommend this game.
