I played the entire game and the bonus game and all extras. Really enjoyed the storyline, including the bonus game (made sense, not an after thought like many). Great visuals from Eipix as usual. The puzzles were fun and some were more thought provoking (but not too hard) and there seem to be more HOS in this one and I enjoy them.
I really like this series and always learn something from the fact cards.

I haven't finished the game; I am more than half way through, normally I wait until I do before writing a review. I bought this game without even finishing the demo which is rare. I think the game has great graphics and enjoying the game so far. It has a different twist on some of challenges. I do have to admit I liked the last one better (Deck of Fates) but I still recommend this game. Not sure why others were so negative.
I recommend this game!

Enjoyed this game of the series. It's fun and like the Jules Verne addition to the storyline. The Oz characters are okay and there was just enough of them in the game to not become annoying. I am getting ready to play the game again. I thought puzzles were interesting and had some different spins. I really liked the intro that went through the past games, I had played all of them.
I recommend this game!

Great game and addition to this fun series. The storyline is great including the graphics and sound. I like the various achievements you can earn and the puzzles are different and fun. I've seen some of these puzzle variations in other Eipix games but they seem to find a new twist. I also played the extras game and was entertaining. If you follow this series you will see telltale signs in the background of past games and that makes it even more fun, but if this is your first time playing a game in this series you do not have to have played previous games to enjoy it. Highly recommend this game; it's not only fun but with the fact cards you learn something as you do in all Hidden Expeditions (HE) games.
I recommend this game!

I have several from this series and personally enjoyed and played the others multiple times. I did play the regular game twice and bonus once. I liked the story line and the level of challenge was easy. Sometimes you need a game you can have a glass of wine and still play...with that said the puzzles are very basic.
Nothing overly creative, enjoyed the last one in this series more.
As noted I still recommend this game but do have some observations below.
1. Some areas kept sparkling after completed to display a note. Was frustrating. Maybe just collect the note cards?
2. I couldn't find on the map or within the game a way to tell if I've found the umbrella for that location or all the puzzle pieces. I also couldn't find what I gained by collecting the puzzle pieces.
3. There is no incentive to replay HOS as there is no additional badge earned.
4. Found the achievements hard to read. You had to hover and click to display what the achievement was for. Would have preferred some kind of list or displayed without additional steps.

Really enjoyed MadHead games lately. The game was really fun and the storyline was different. I've played it several times including the bonus game.
Liked going to different planets and the characters/aliens including the portals.
The dialog could be a bit hokey at times but still enjoyed the game overall.
Level of challenge was good but I enjoyed it wasn't too hard so you can still be challenged but yet relaxing.

Pick a card and go on an adventure. This is a really fun and different game. Really enjoyed it as a female. Mentioned this as sometimes the themes can be more geared towards one over other, but I think anyone will enjoy this game.
I recommend this game!

This game is so much fun and if you like Eipix games like I do you are sure to enjoy this game. I'm amazed at how they can come up with different puzzles or variations of their other puzzles and make them fun, enjoyable but yet challenging. Love the storyline and as always great graphics and sound.
I recommend this game!

I have played this game many times over including the bonus chapter. I really liked the story, it was different and kept my interest.
It was fun and well done. I highly recommend this game. It's so different from the typical monsters, etc.
I bought this game a while ago and just getting around to submitting my review.
Games are challenging but fun, not overly challenging.

This game was really fun to play and enjoyed the storyline. It was challenging enough but not too challenging as others mentioned. I have played it all the way through but haven't played the bonus game yet. I plan on playing it again.
I recommend this game!
