Thank goodness for people posting WALKTHROUGHS..... you collect a ton of flies and get A HINT and the hint button no matter what scene you are in will not work!!! STUPID!! You cannot skip games.. I did get through them all... WALKTHROUGH helped when totally stuck. so this game is kind of the GOOD, the BAD, and the UGLY... Great concept, but needs a few tweaks to it. Once I got on a roll it was a soothing fun game.. BUT once stuck it was frustrating when HINT would not work and it was FULL!!! :( I FOUND it way TOO SHORT.... and they let you play the mini game again, BUT once was good enough for most of them!! :P This game is NOT for everyone... if you get GAME RAGE!!! do not play... lol
I recommend this game!

WHAT happened fellas??? The first one to this series was great and as the years go by they should get even better. Not so here. It just seems to lose your interest too soon....
Story line seemed to be all over the place and loses you at times.
Morphing objects flickered but seemed to still be the same item before and after "Morphing!" Juat not a game that kept your interest enough to buy it. I think they need to bow out gracefully about now and call this the end to this series...
I don't recommend this game.

I found the soundtrack great and some times very calming when doing the puzzles... never got annoying. The GRAPHICS are stunning.. well done guys and gals.. :)
OK..... NOW the nitpick part... lol SINCE when do you need a JACK to lift a motorcycle to put air in the tires!?? YOU don't, but this is a game and like TV anything is possible..
Since when does rick know GIBBERISH language??? The scroll he was reading from was exactly English yet he was reading from it just fine!!!
Fish tank mini game.. VERY relaxing and good music....
In the beginning of the game you have to use a like 50 CARAT diamond ring to cut into the CAR....... If you found the key to start it why would you have to break in to even get in????? You wouldn't ... ACTUALLY... there was plenty of space to climb over the car and not even move it... BUT AGAIN,,,,,,, this is a game!!!
Played it twice...... Some of these REAL mini HOGS are sad with like 10 things in picture and 10 things to find.. Still enjoyed this game a lot........
I recommend this game!

I was a bit frustrated at all the clicking at items I did...... Then it almost got exciting..... LIKE what will I find in this bucket or behind that door???? You work your way to different levels doing different things...
I was so finally absorbed in the game play that the demo ended and I was like ALREADY!!! you get into after you get the hang of the game play.........
I recommend this game!

I was finding the HINT button kept going to an item that could not be used yet, yet it wouldn't give you a HINT of where to go first to find that missing piece....... GRAPHICS are beautiful..... Puzzles I like... It is kind of a game that I will NOT buy but WILL get when I get a freebie game code......... IT IS DIFFERENT, i give it that... I also would have liked to see a locking inventory, but being you are in so many puzzles in this I guess it not the end of the world. Sometimes you could back out of a scene, sometimes you had to click the LEAVE button.
I recommend this game!

Lame mini HOG right away... HATE the tiny ones with 8 items in the picture and 6 items to find!! Then a minute later is a mini game that has been done before..... I swore I had played the game in the past. I had to go in to look at the games review dates to make sure somehow i wasn't playing an old game. Used to like ERS games and now they are another company and they are just lame compared to some of the games others are coming out with... Disappointed
I don't recommend this game.

This game could have been SO much more than it was. Graphics were way too bright and not well defined... seen better... HOGS had basically just the hidden objects and NO more, meaning everything was super easy to spot. Wish they could do this and a few games over and they would ROCK!!!! Still enjoyed it if you get it on sale. Not full price worthy in my opinion. Still enjoyed it, but it could've been 10xs better.. Graphics, and mini games were a tad lame. THE maze game AROUND the cube I liked a lot... I still recommend this game, but you might want to get this or another sale for it..
I recommend this game!

OK ... I bought this and ALL of the rest to this series.. THis I demoed... THe rest no... #3 was horrid.. small and not clear... THIS one is sharp and nice... love finding the extras! BUT as one person pointed out... If you use the mega hint... It last about an 1/8th of a sec and you have to wait for hint recharge... IT does not give you enough time to spot more than one item.. I used it once, so no biggie for me.. ACTUALLY, Even if I do not use it... For it not to work well is a pointer!!! LOVED the game otherwise... and YES they are repeating a few bits of the scenes here and there!
I recommend this game!

I truly wanted to love this. Close up on the graphics were very beautiful but a whole scene was a bit blurry and over done... The mini games seemed very childish and boring. Match 3 etc.... Good try fellas but a no go here!!!!
I don't recommend this game.
