Great graphics. Interesting variety of mini-games. Not as many HO scenes as I normally like, but I like finding the frogs throughout the game. There are many scenes and you are required to go back and forth between them a good deal. Thankfully, if you get stuck, the Hint button tells you what to do next. Overall, I really enjoyed this game.
I recommend this game!

The graphics in this game are not the greatest. On my computer there were many dark areas where I couldn't see what was hidden. Some items were so small they were hard to see, too.It's not fun when you need three or four hints to clear a scene.
I don't recommend this game.

The game starts out easy and gets progressively harder. I have played it through from start to finished several times. It's addicting! There are a few levels that are challenging and I spent a few lives before I progressed, but I persevered! If you can't tell by now, I really enjoyed this game.
I recommend this game!

There was too much reading and less playing for my taste. The hidden object play was okay, but the scenes were a little on the boring side. I didn't like that there was no SKIP button on the mini games. When I came across the tile game in Chapter 7, I gave up and deleted the game from my computer.
I don't recommend this game.
