I don't know why this game has gotten such bad reviews. I purchased it, as I am presently out of games, and am glad I did. Sure the little helper's voice grates on your nerves, but she (so far) has only talked at the beginning of the game. I am enjoying it; give it a chance and don't only go by reviewers' comments. I did one time for a game that got good reviews, and it was HORRIBLE! The Saga of something - silly and boring.
I recommend this game!

Due to my poor judgment, I purchased this game based on the good reviews, w/o even demoing it. Found it to be totally silly and boring. Couldn't wait for it to end. Even the extras were nil.
Save your money.
I don't recommend this game.

I purchased this game and am enjoying it. Don't know why it didn't get 100%. Know my reviews aren't the best, but want to mention when I am enjoying a game - and this is one of the best.

I got this game on buy 1, get one free. I am so totally bored with this game, I can't wait for it to end. It's corny and tiresome. IMO, it's made for preteens or teen boys.
Don't waste your time or money. Ugh!
I don't recommend this game.

Expect the unexpected as this unusual plot twists and turns its way through the seemingly sleepy lakeside location.

I am playing this game and enjoying it very much. It is not a hidden object game. There are puzzles, but they are not very hard. I find the graphics are good and acting is good.
There is even a map which enables you to travel and hints that recharge quickly.
I recommend this game!

I purchased this game and am enjoying it. Don't know why its rating is so low. The game has different types of interactive puzzles, and they are varied. Graphics are good; lip movements are in sync, pretty much. Am looking forward to continue playing.
Occasionally, you'll get a postcard object to place where it belongs in the scene; found this to be fun.
I recommend this game!

I purchased this game due to the "deal" of the week. At first I found it to be a bit silly, but the more I played, the better it got. I read, that once someone saw a "helper" they quickly quit. I don't care for helpers either, and at first, when I heard her voice, I almost quit also. However, as the game progresses, she (a faery) doesn't talk at all, except to say something like "got it." It's a pretty good game, and for $1.99, you can't lose much! Try it.
I recommend this game!

This review is based on the demo. I immediately liked the game and purchased it. I know my reviews aren't very good, but just wanted to show a positive opinion.
I recommend trying it and see what you think.

This review is based on approx. 20 minutes of demo. I hate to disagree with Sunnyglow, but I enjoyed what I played. I would have played more, but once I decide I will purchase a game, I don't like to play too much. I think the dog is cute and lends a good vibe to the game. It seems it will be a good, interesting and fun game.
I recommend this game!

This is based on approx. 15 mins. of demo. Very unusual game. I normally don't play strategy games, but may try them more often. Navigation in this game is strange. It is made in a foreign country (Norway? or near?). It appears there is a lot to be done in this game. Unfortunately, it's not for me. The characters are all black with white eyes. Try it and see what you think.
