This game has all of the elements I like. Map works to transport, able to switch to another game from HOS, challenging mini games (puzzles) that are fresh and different. Loved it!
I recommend this game!

Unfortunately, I found this game to have great potential, which it did not live up to. All video section were so slow and couldn't skip most. Mini games didn't make very much sense . No switch game on the HOS (HOS games are way overused) and not even interactive. Overall, I can not recommend this game
I don't recommend this game.

This game is visually very dark and hard to see. The settings settings had great options to choose from but would not apply. Couldn't skip the cut scenes (for me very irritating). When changing rooms the load time was very slow. Just another ordinary HOS game. Need something new.
I don't recommend this game.

Fairly easy, definatly a beginner's game. Pretty typical and nothing new. If you like HOSs it is OK. Mini games are very easy.
I don't recommend this game.

Finally something new! Hats off to Elephant Games for coming up with innovative games. I'm so tired of HOS I could scream, but the few that are in this game are OK because the rest of this game is the best I have every played. I Highly recommend and wish I would have purchased the CE so I could have played it more.
I recommend this game!

I'm sorry I can't give this game any kind of positive review. None of the components worked well. It was extremely vague on what was to be done anywhere; not cohesive. The mini games where extremely simple and vague.Would be OK for beginners if it actually worked well. The HOS's were not done well either.
I don't recommend this game.

I play lots of hidden object games and really like the mini puzzles the best. This game has a fresh take on the mini games and the HO scenes. Good job. I recommend it!
I recommend this game!
