I thoroughly enjoyed playing this game. It was more adventure with a mixture of Hidden Object scenes and Puzzles. I especially liked the variety of ways to look for the hidden objects, with it's interactive style.
The Bonus Game was a nice addition to the game.
The whole game was worth the cost of a CE and was a nice lengthy game to play.
I recommend this game!

Every scene has a Morphing Object and a "collectible" Hummingbird, the 1st time through.
There are 40 Hummingbirds and 40 Morphing Objects to gather.
I'm a regular player and playing all of the HOPs and all of the Mini Games, plus the Bonus Game took me over 8 hours.
I thoroughly enjoyed the game, and it had a nice flow. The graphics were clear and the music fit the game theme.
Once the Bonus Game is completed, you can play Mahjong games as many times as you want. I feel like I got an extra Mahjong game along with my CE purchase.
Thanks to the Developers for a great game.
I recommend this game!

Enchantment plus with beautiful graphics. Add to that, soft and relaxing music which then makes for a most pleasurable game and a feast for the eyes.
The opening scene is fantastic -- I watch it each time I enter the game.
There are 8 "frog" scenes in the main game and 2 in the bonus game, so it's not heavy on Hidden Object type scenes. Most of the time you pick items up as you go along or get them at the completion of a mini game.
The mini games are different and fun; some I haven't seen before.
This is by far the "prettiest" game I have ever played. Much thought and work went into making the scenes so enjoyable to look at.
I recommend this game!

I thoroughly enjoyed playing this game. The graphics were clear and colorful. The story was a romantic tale of two lovers from different backgrounds (one magical and one human).
This was a nice adventure of rescue and learning the truth about where she came from and what she is meant to be.
There aren't any collectibles in the game, but I didn't miss them at all. It allowed me to concentrate and enjoy the game more.
I recommend this game!

You really need not play the 1st game, in order to play this game. The "sequel" part only comes in with the Museum Person having dealt with Davy Jones before and beat him at his game.
This is a thoroughly enjoyable game with lots of things to do and search for. The graphics are clear and well done.
I'm looking for the next installment of the Davy Jones saga; at least I hope there will be one.
I recommend this game!

The story seemed interesting and I really did try to give this game a fair shake (played for 50 minutes), but unfortunately, I became bored.
This game could have been a good game, if not for the slowness of moving from scene-to-scene. The graphics were OK and some of the mini games different, but the lack of speed and uninteresting scenes made this game dull.
As with any game, try it yourself; as for me, I will not purchase.
I don't recommend this game.

I thoroughly enjoyed the game, because of the different type of story and being set during "current" time.
Yes, you had to save a "brother", but the real story was in the "crystals" and the effect they were having on the environment.
The graphics are very clear, and the scenes are beautiful to look at. There was a nice mix of puzzles and HO Scenes. I like the fact that, once the game has been completed, you can go back and play the puzzles and Hidden Object scenes.
My recommendation is to try the game, you just might enjoy it.
I recommend this game!

I like the "Golf" Solitaire games, but I do NOT like having to pay EXTRA for items.
Purchasing items with "game" earned dollars is OK. Having to purchase items, outside of the game (for actual dollars) is NOT OK. $9.99 for Irons, $49.99
Prove yourself worthy of the favors of your Pharaoh!

Seems like a good game, EXCEPT a horrible strain on the eyes in the "Campaign Mode" due to the colorful Egyptian styling.
I only played 3 hands, in the Campaign Mode, and my eyes started to hurt.
Because of the strain on my eyes, I will not be purchasing this game. Others have complained about this situation also.
To those of you that can deal with the "Campaign Mode" styling, you will have a nice game to play.
I don't recommend this game.
