I played this again for the third or fourth time over the weekend, and I really like the graphics here. Very crisp and clear, plenty of challenge on the ho's, and a tidy little story. I like the chapters which help the story transition from one area to the next. this was a good purchase for me.
I recommend this game!

I played this for the third time today, and realized why I bought it in the first place. Good HOs, good story, and it progresses well. It was worth the money.

I finished the trial, and I'm sure I won't buy this one. If it's possible to have too much going on in a game, I think this qualifies. I find that there are too many cut scenes, the swirly appearances of the witch are too long, the cursor is big and bulky, the scenes are way too colorful and messy, and I just don't follow the story. So far, too many collections with no clue of what I'm supposed to do with them. I don't know why I don't appreciate this game, but I just wasn't enjoying it.

I love the Robinson Crusoe games. The illustrations are gorgeous, and the puzzles are a lot of fun. The HOs in the games are very good and always deliver a little extra challenge. I would love to see more from this developer.

I like the storyline and the way it progresses in this game. I liked playing Joy, and following her through her investigation, dressing up in different disguises. The only drawback for me in this game was some of the mushy graphics in the HOs. I really put my eyes to work trying to find some of the objects, and definitely needed the hint button a few times. Overall, a fun game.

Well, the first thing that comes to mind is how HARD it is to find the objects. You'll click yourself to death in this game. some of the objects are virtually IMPOSSIBLE to find, and that's no exaggeration. Overall, it gives a lot of play time, and it was fun to a point for me, because I enjoy the river scene and the puzzles and games. Finding the hot spots to trigger the object hunts can be tedious since you have to mouse over the whole frame to find the pointer. At least one of the scenes has seven hot spots, and each of those have on the average of five to seven objects to find. I suppose I recommend the game, but it does drive me crazy.

Just finished the trial, and I'm having a lot of fun with this game. The HO's are more intricate and include puzzles to finish. The graphics are good, finely detailed, and just a little bit of getting used to words such as "closed" for "locked." All in all, I will definitely purchase this game.

This game is not worth downloading to even try it out. Very clicky, and after a click or two, you have to wait for "loading." The graphics are very fuzzy and difficult to see what you're supposed to be looking for. The dialogue bubbles were silly sometimes and there were too many of them. Anyway, I wouldn't waste my time. Sorry.
