35 min. I got stuck (page 1 in the map). All locations were checked off as completed, no "?". Went through every location and hit the hint button, but everywhere it suggested that I move along.
I exited and went back in, no change.
A buy for me? Likely not.
The past isn’t set in stone. Now’s your chance to change it!

Many of the objectives of this game are related to finding, and installing, some kind of part, which in itself is o.k., but not all of us are into machine-building (that would be me). It would have helped to know what you're making, or the purpose. Too many gadgets are needed to build the mechanism, and scattered throughout different locations, so there is a lot of going back and forth.
When at last you finally find what's needed to open a new element in the game, the payoff falls short of the "wow" factor you would expect after the time spent in the search.
Some of the mini games were different and challenging but others were routine and outdated (like pressing buttons at random so all the lights come on).
Visual effects were a cut above the rest, although the split screens I found a bit confusing, probably because it's a new concept. Hidden object scenes were relatively easy, with some clever variations in how to look for the items.
The game did not appeal to me, but will appeal to others, which is why I recommend this game.
I recommend this game!
Use the power of the magic cards and rebuild the elven island!

I enjoy most card games, but this one really didn't hold my interest. It was too repetitious - there wasn't enough variety in settings, card faces, or variety of games, and something I didn't usually complain about, but the sound effects were even boring. I played for the first 20 min. then went back the Microsoft card games that came free with my PC for a little more entertainment.
Sorry, but I don't recommend the game. Not enough of an overall challenge.

Annoying game. If you hit the wrong spot on the minigame screen, it bounces you out of the mini-game. Really a pain in the neck. Especially if you're not enjoying the mini-game. It resets the skip time.
Looked good, but too finicky to play. And I'm not old and crotchety.
I don't recommend this game.

Well, that's 10 minutes of my life I'll never get back. Terrible graphics and itsy-bitsy little hidden objects.
Tried to mute the music (options), but the band played on - and on, and on, and on ......
I don't recommend this game.

Sorry, not for me. Lousy graphics being the main reason. The hidden objects are blurry, and even when I take a hint, I STILL can't see them.
Should've expected there would be a penalty for rapid clicking - games with better graphics don't have a penalty because their graphics are clearer and sharper.
The game play is tedious, and I stopped, and uninstalled less than 10 min. into the trial.
I don't recommend this game.

Terrible game. Too much talking, objects barely visible, gunshot hints overbearing. Poor acting, annoying voice.
Other than that, it was a good game - for about 3 minutes.
I don't recommend this game.

This game was very tedious to play. The inventory screen had to be selected so it would pop up (no lock or auto hide feature), the "back" key wasn't conveniently located, you had to BUY hints, which weren't particularly helpful, there was no indication of where or what to pick up.
Sorry guys
I don't recommend this game.

Once again, another game that won't load with Windows 10 - after 3 re-installs. But maybe it isn't the fault of the operating system.
It wouldn't be fair to give this game a bad review, I'll give it 4 stars, and recommend.
I recommend this game!

After 3 attempts to load, now 18 minutes into the game, I still have a black screen. I'm running windows 10. Maybe that explains it. If not, well, there must be another problem.
