I bought this because I enjoyed the demo but there is a lot of duplication. For example there is flower bush, bush (that looks just like flower bush) and there is Prince hiding behind bush which looks like all the other bushes. There are many versions of "witch" that pretty much all look alike. I became pretty bored with it before the end. Play is pretty easy but hard enough to offer some challenge. I never used a hint or any of the helps and never got less than 2 out of 3 stars - and mostly 3 stars throughout. I quit after 7 of the 12 rounds. Each round has 10 puzzles. I recommend this game only to the extent that if I run out of other more interesting games I may return and play the rest. Some people who love mosaics will probably enjoy to some degree.
I recommend this game!

You might find this fine for just passing time. This is one of the kind where you use the cursor to connect as many matching tiles as you can. They call it "linking" style. You have to uncover treasures in the sand. They are easy to find and uncover and they are always the same, round after round. There is a variety of puzzles every few rounds but they are also quite easy. This is my favorite genre so I look for something different and interesting and this wasn't it. I don't recommend it for people like me, but that's the nice think about the demos. You might enjoy it.
I don't recommend this game.

The challenge is there. I had trouble finding a number of the objects and had to use hints but they are generous with hints. There are so many similar out there - like the Cruise Director group, that are a lot more fun. If this is your absolute favorite genre you might like it more than I.
I don't recommend this game.

First, I played in limited moves mode - you can also play with no limits or with limited time. I was only able to finish about 6 or 7 levels in limited moves mode during the trial. The story was fairly typical bad guys vs. good guys who have to build a town to protect themselves by earning money via a match 3 game. One downside was that each round loaded fairly slowly. I'll wait for a sale and then buy this one.
I recommend this game!

This is improved over the last game in my opinion. The illustrations are very good this time around and the extra games are more enjoyable. Overall it may be a little easier than it needs to be, but I will buy this one.
I recommend this game!

I usually find these "Travel to" games a 3 or 4 star, but I found this game pretty simple and sort of boring. Only used a hint once. To me the story was pretty non existent and I think I played the whole game in about 1 1/2 hours. If I had realized how little was left after the demo I probably would not have bought it.
I don't recommend this game.

When this was titled Hidden Object I loaded the demo and the first 20 minutes was fun so I bought it on BOGO day. I also saw that it said it was a combo of other mini games like mahjong. Fact is it is almost entirely mahjong and very little hidden object. The mahjong isn't even regular mahjong but you match tiles to their line up in a tray vs. matching with each other on the board. It's tedious and, so far, I've easily won each game they included. The music is average, there really is no storyline, the pictures for hidden object are small and a bit hard to see although you can enlarge the screen. I did not end up enjoying this game and regret not having played the whole demo. You might want to do that before you decide to buy.
I don't recommend this game.

I found that once I was inside the house in the living room after having collected quite a bit in my inventory, nothing worked. The knob wouldn't attach to the door, the birds wouldn't attach to the box, I couldn't put the oven mitt on and break the window. I thought I must be doing something wrong so looked at the walkthrough and I was doing it right but it just didn't work so after about 25 minutes I had no options and had to give it up. Never had this problem with any other game so I guess it's a glitch in the game. I'll try to reload maybe but if you try and have the same result - it's not just you.
I don't recommend this game.

I liked it in the demo so bought it. There are 9 chapters with 11 rounds each. After about the second round they start repeating puzzles - not exactly but almost. It also seems they were getting more and more simple. By about the forth round it seems they just lost interest, and by the sixth round I did too. I kept hoping but I gave up. I'll possibly finish it on a rainy day but if there's something else to do I probably won't.
I don't recommend this game.

I played for 25 minutes and each level was pretty much exactly like the one before - little visual interest - no surprises.
