Really interesting and fresh storyline, enjoyable puzzles, good length, attractive graphics, good voiceovers. A step above anything I've seen before on Big Fish games. Clearly set up for sequels, which I'm looking forward to. Absolutely only for adults.
I recommend this game!

This is a terrifically designed match 3 game. Interesting, with lots going on. Unfortunately there is a slot machine element, which goes against my ethics, so I won't be continuing to play it. If it wasn't for that, this would be my all time favorite match 3 game.
I recommend this game!

This game is a mixture of mahjong, hidden object and other puzzles such as concentration. It's perfect for when you just want ten or fifteen minutes of relaxation. The difficulty builds as you move through the game, but its still achievable all the way. The music and graphics are nice.

If you like adventure style games this is the one for you. A good and unique storyline, nice functionality and graphics. No annoying talking animals. I played it through the night, I enjoyed it so much. Highly recommended.

Annoying sidekick characters are a total turnoff for me. I played this game for about 10 minutes, telling myself that I could ignore/play without the imp. Sadly not. Between the attention-requiring babyish imp and the huge proportion of the early game time devoted to cutscenes and unskippable animation, I was out of there.
What a shame because otherwise this looked like a very interesting game.
I don't recommend this game.

Some games get it just right. Puzzles of just the right difficulty, not too many cutscenes, original and engaging storyline. This game was a pleasure from start to finish.

I play games from Big Fish to unwind after work. I liked the fact that this game comprised distinct chapters, so it suited my preference of playing the game in discontinuous sessions. The game had the right level of challenge for me, and I liked the quick recharging of the hint and skip buttons so that I could get past the puzzle types that I just have no aptitude for (e.g. moving one item will move the others) and those puzzles with unclear instructions. I'm not hung up on storyline in these games, and perhaps it was my own lack of attentiveness that led to me being utterly confused by the end about who the good guys were and who the bad guys were. They all blurred together for me. But that didn't matter. Minor frustrations were that I'd often be clicking the correct item in a HOP a few times before the selection worked, the opening scene had forgotten to replace the 'Lorem Ipsum' text with the intended message and I got annoyed by the sparkles in the HOPs. I'd prefer to find the items myself. Overall I enjoyed this game and would recommend it.

I like a spooky game. This game did the trick. Nice creepy scenes, dripping water noises and historical flashbacks. The adventure side of the game was interesting, with plenty to do and work out. The HOPs were just the right frequency and difficulty. Unfortunately there was yet another family member to rescue, this time a particularly whiny teenage daughter who didn't seem to do much to help herself. Hopefully she won't show up in the sequel - but I hope there will be a sequel.
I recommend this game!

A good game made up of many short chapters of finding things to soothe stranded souls. Good puzzles, tidy hidden object scenes and a nice pace. Warning to parents - I played part of this game with a friends 2 young boys and they found some of the themes beyond them. This one is for the grownups.

The graphics in this game, especially in the cutscenes, were equal to what you'd find in a console game. Lovely and original. There was plenty to do, nice puzzles, a useful map. Good characters. I'm not sure why the heroine was modelled on Sarah Palin, or come to think of it what the storyline had to do with the heroine at all, but that didn't matter. This was such an enjoyable game.
I recommend this game!
