This game is so like all the others BFG is offering these days I can't even come up with a Review Title!
Same silly picking up of ridiculous things, placing them someplace ridiculous to get something else that turns out to be...wait for it...totally ridiculous! In this game however, we have to carry most of it around in our overburdened inventory for way too long!
Plots are all blending together. Puzzles are easy just really long and time consuming.
I finished the demo, not sure why, but I was happy when it ended!
To me, this was just another boring and silly game that I will not be buying.
I don't recommend this game.

This game boring and repetitive. Far too many simple puzzles. Ridiculous "storyline", if you can even call it that.
Another no buy for me!
I don't recommend this game.

This is what Adventure Games are like! No one holds your hand. You get caught up in the story whether it's silly or serious and you use your brain to figure out what to do next. It is NOT just brain numbing picking up and putting down!
If the point and click interface had been better I would have given 5 stars, but it's just a bit clumsy.
All in all this is the type of game that keeps you busy for days, not just a couple of hours, and is fun to boot! Thank you!
I recommend this game!

And yet another game based on a fairy tale! How many repeat fairy tale games are there now? How many Jack & the Beanstalk games?
Puzzles were either too easy to bother taking the time to finish or had such cryptic instructions as to not bother with them at all. Collectables are two see through cats and a morphing object in each scene. I like cats, were there cats in Jack & the Beanstalk?
The hedgehogs were an adorable waste of time, except when their quills became a silly reason for an HO.
Storyline, greed turning nice people into evil people and we gotta recompense or kill the giant, I forget. Also finding stuff and putting it in places to open something. At least most of the stuff was slightly related to the Jack & Beanstalk motif, still a silly way to open a drawer.
I don't find this game worth my time or money.
I don't recommend this game.

I forgot the purpose of the game 10 minutes into the demo.
Same goofy time filling actions to open things with other things.
Give the little dog a break, he's not a young as he used to be.
I don't recommend this game.

Way too Blue and Purple...again. There are other colors in the palette, why they continue to use blue and purple is a mystery to me.
Same puzzles and actions as most of the other games these days. Pick up and place something totally unrelated to open a drawer, a box, a book..and find odd objects that do normal things such as open a door with a toaster instead of a key. (I made that one up, but it's not that different in the CEs these days). It's just silly stuff which is annoying and not even remotely funny or fun for that matter. Feels like it's just a time filler to make the game last longer.
I found this game tiresome and repetitive. It gave me the blues...and the purples as well.
I don't recommend this game.

This game starts out with a ridiculous premise and continues to venture into an oddly weird and annoying game heavily packed with hidden objects as well as being very puzzle heavy, Easy, silly, annoying puzzles.
There are a morphing item and a collectable item in each scene. The rest is lot's of find nonsensical things and placing them in something to open it up and pick up another strangely ridiculous object. And then a puzzle. Rinse and repeat. Very tiresome in my opinion.
Then somewhere you get a magic conch shell that calls up elementals that talked to me (I had completely lost interest in the game by this time so the details are a bit blurry) and I stopped playing at this point. Someone will probably say it gets better, and it would actually have to, since it couldn't get much worse.
Another churned out of the cookie factory game with nothing to hold my interest. I will not be buying this game.
I don't recommend this game.

I really don't need to say more, my title says it all..again! This game is like every other game. Flashy colors, pretty, vacuous female artiste (who oddly looks like Duchess Kate), has caught the eye of the villain (who oddly happens to be horribly mutilated and knows lots of evil yet brightly colored swirly, magic) whilst you (the suiter of the vacuous girl opera singer) must go through the same sad, highly ridiculous and repetitive maneuvers to save her.
I presume there are puzzles and hidden objects, as well as collectables, but as soon as I got through the mirror and saw the piles of silly obstacles on both sides of the chasm I could not continue. I doubt the game will get better as it goes along, but it will be familiar which I assume is comforting to some players. For me, as far as PC games are concerned, familiarity breeds contempt!
Give me something new, fresh and challenging! This game stinks on ice!
Needless to say, I won't be buying it.
I don't recommend this game.

Easy to string together a plot on this one. Just play any of the last ten or so PuppetShow games, and there you have it! The first couple of PuppetShow games were good. They had originality and mystery. They were fun. This 14th or 15th cookie cut out puppet game is completely predictable, boring and an insult to my intelligence.
Honestly, I gave it the one star so I could submit a review, hoping that this developer and others can see there are gamers, like me, who are tired of the tedium and won't be buying this hogswallop!
You get to find a piggybank and another collectable in the scenes. I've already forgotten what the collectable was, but I remember something about coins in the piggybank, so I'm assuming we get to play "dress the little puppets" again! Sigh!
I found no challenge, or entertainment here! As always the graphics were quite pretty, but pretty isn't enough.
I don't recommend this game.

Seriously, something was in the Sugar!
I personally have been asking for more challenging games. This is not what I meant! This is utter jibber-jabber! Throwing in puzzles with no explanation of what to do, bizarre objects floating around all the while in some kind of nightmarish crazy land isn't challenging, it's just silly! Perhaps if there had been a back-story to explain the circumstances, be we are just pretty much thrown straight into trippy land
Puzzles ..easy after you figure out you're in a puzzle and what is required. Hops, cluttered. Graphics are detailed and pretty, but I don't purchase games for their graphics alone. Storyline..what storyline?
I will not buy this silly game.
I don't recommend this game.
