Took me awhilel..actually more than awhile..to finish this game but loved every minute of it! I have ALL the Hero of the Kingdom games and are always challenging! Patience and determination. Not the highest quality graphic game and the dialolgues can be tedious but it's SO interesting and SATISFYING when you finally figure something out. I RECOMMEND
I recommend this game!

This is my favorite Golden Rails yet! There's always so much to do, everything moves along at a good pace and it's nice to enjoy my old friends and a few new ones! I especially like the fishing!! Great addition to the game! If you like to add TM games to your HO collection, I recommend all the Golden Rails

I rarely if ever pay full price or save up Reward Points to purchase games...but not so for my old friends from Pinecreek Hills! INSTANT BUY! It's nice I recognize most of the rangers by sight & name lol
Now all I need is a new Cruise Director and I'll be a very happy "vacationer" indeed.
I highly recommend all of these if you're a hidden object freak as I...and, btw, I LOVE the "ranger doll"..nice addition!

Bought this as an add-on for a 2-fer buy, wasn't expecting much and WOW I'm so happy I did! I am a huge Gaslamp game fan, buy them ALL sight unseen, revisit each and every one over and over. Way to occupy my time & provide me with a match-3 challenge every time.
This one has a bit of a different, more modern, storyline but it hits just as well for me. I recommend!
Please keep 'em coming!
I recommend this game!

I was NOT expecting much from this game..bought it on a 2-fer day. Am PLEASANTLY surprised! The game - for a non-CE edition - was long, involved and NOT easy (I ended up using that 'hint' button WAY more than usual)
Love the graphics, artwork, characters and, basically, all the visuals.
Do I recommend giving this one a try? Absolutely!
KUDOS to the developer..hope to see more from you!
I recommend this game!

I never even hesitate when I see a new Gaslamp Case game..INSTANT buy. I've got 'em all and revisit them over & over. They may LOOK easy, but they certainly are challenging, at least to me. Keep 'em coming!!

Bought & finished..it was okay but didn't knock my socks off. Seems Book Traveler is a new series so maybe they'll improve with age.
Good graphics, color not over-blown. Gameplay was medicre. Elephant used to be such an exciting developer..now not so much. Really would like more games rooted in modernity.
I recommend this game!

I bought this game as it was on the sale menu, started playing it last night and am really on the fence about it. The graphics are good, colors are good, mechanics good but the game itself...meh. The collectibles are small enough to be non-detectable. Lot of back & forth which I don't normally mind. This game, however, has just not been much fun so far. I've been doing "Adventure/Detective" HOPA's a long time now and don't mind a challenge, actually, but I WOULD like it to make sense. I've smashed the hint/skip button far more than I usually do. Do I recommend this game? You'll have to decide that for yourself

I've only played the free trial so far...will be waiting for a sale on this one...BUT, this game smacks of one of my all-time Fish favorites 'My Brother Rabbit'. It's NOT easy and I had to hurry thru to get as much out as I could before my time ran out. I liked it!!
I recommend this game!

I always...ALWAYS...buy any Vacation Adventures/Christmas Wonderland game instantly. They give me endless hours of gameplay. This one is no exception, though I thought the original honeymoon was a bit shorter than usual. If you don't buy the Collectors Edition, you're gonna miss out on some other cruises in the US. As always, the gameplay is flawless, the colors and graphics are fantastic, the puzzles are familiar yet challenging and you're always gonna get an overwhelmingly cluttered scene to explore. Keep 'em coming, Casual Arts!
I recommend this game!
