Maybe this game was intended for kids, no way to tell, but as the excellent top reviewer pennmom36 pointed out, this one is a huge disappointment after the superb "Crowded Mysteries".
Just clicking on the obvious got boring about 5 minutes in ---- sorry, but for me it really doesn't qualify as a game. You can go all over the internet to find things to click on ---- and they want CE money for this? I don't think so.
Sorry the review is negative ---- I am just trying to convey my true feelings about the game. I get such a laugh out of other reviewers who feel they have to make insolent and petty remarks about other reviews ---- just shows their lack of confidence in their own review, in my opinion.
But, as always, try the game if you want ---- it's free to play for an hour.
I don't recommend this game.
Experience the beauty of the natural world!

It should come as no surprise that boring Boomzap (aka Tiny Little Lion) has made their weekly appearance with this snoozer that asks us to spend hours playing their repeating game hunting for ---- hold on now, try not to get too excited ---- PLANTS!!
And it's the 4th go around.
Plants.
Again.
And it's the 4th go around.

Really, fellow players, can you think of anything more boring? than hunting plants? and then, play a mini game whose style was popular in 2008? Maybe they could feature a game of paint drying around the world, and even have a developer's diary of various stages of paint drying. (And yes, there is a developer's diary here ---- part of the CE bonus content, you see. LOL)
Incredibly, there are those who feel the need to scold me for reviewing these redundant games negatively. Well, sorry about that, but these repeating games from boring Boomzap once a week are really getting old. And it is just that ---- repeating itself. Everything is the very same and I fully believe that boring Boomzap has got these games already made way on up to number 10 or so for each of their titles that truly, really are the very same game.
For me, it's an awful game that has no point to it at all.
But for those who play to "relax" and want to let the brain cells take a total rest ---- buy this wreck of a game and enjoy ---- it's your money.
I don't recommend this game.

It doesn't really qualify as a real HOPA ---- just some HOS with some ok puzzles and a weak but barely serviceable story.
Good enough to be leveled above the junk involving animals, travel, etc. from other devs so it gets the 3 stars. However, it is not, imo, CE worthy at all
But for the sake of a simple beginner type game, I guess it's ok ---- this dev has other similar offerings but I can't remember anything about them ---- that's how forgettable they are.

Anyone that believes these games weren't made ready for a quick buck months ago ---- please take a look at my moon lots! LOL
These games are just getting worse ---- whatever they are choosing as their topic. Thank goodness for the astute developers we can still count on.

This is a game that borders on perfection.
This what casual gaming should strive to be.
This what casual gaming should strive to be.
Going way beyond a mish-mash of cluttery hidden objects and mini games of ancient technology, this beautiful game features a good story, fantastic graphics, intelligent and intriguing gameplay that will command your attention, and bonus material that actually is meaningful.
This is why I come to BF ---- games that go infinitely farther than little animals and busy work. I like to relax when I play but I also like a bit of mental stimulation.

THANK YOU TO THESE EXCELLENT DEVELOPERS for reminding us how great casual games can and SHOULD be.
Excellent game with the highest recommendation!
I recommend this game!

So here's Tiny Little Lion with yet another clutter style clone that has absolutely nothing new (even the same number of useless wallpapers) and serves no real "gaming" purpose.
I will be delighted when the gaming community gets tired of these duds that are nothing but repetitious busy work with no point, no end game, no story, and ---- worst of all ---- no fun.
Completely boring rehash of the first 2 in this series which has now become a silly caricature of itself
I honestly believe that the good gamers that gush and rave about these duds have forgotten what good casual games should be.
these games are "colorful" ---- so what?
these games are "relaxing" ---- take a nap, they're free!
these games have great puzzles ---- straight out of the first generation of casual games
these games are "different" ---- so is watching paint dry.

And I am sure these next 3 or 4 "So Much" games are already set to go as Tiny Little Lion rubs their tiny little corporate hands together in greedy anticipation of how soon can they be released.
I think Tiny Little Lion should come up with something outside their monotonous box of rubber stamp same old, same old games or just go away ---- these games are terrible.
Have a "paw"some adventure finding cats and pups!

Tiny Little Lion has now officially become my least favorite developer.
I am so tired of these weak and weekly offerings that use the same template and were probably created sometime last year and just chopped into sections to be released over time.
And now, even the devs are having a hard time coming up with original titles! We have had I Love Finding Cats and I Love Finding Pups ---- so here is I Love Finding Both! LOL
But that's Ok because it is nothing but a continuation of the same tedious, boring, and old fashioned HOGs that they think we are going to be duped into thinking there is something original here.
I promise you there is not. Just find a bunch of things including the animals and move on to the next scene. Absolutely pointless.

An aside to Tiny Little Lion. Stop trying to convince intelligent players that each of you developers own what is now probably up to 25-30 animals each that you just love to pieces. You don't and your developer diary claiming you do is insulting.
I remember when Boomzap claimed financial hard times was what was behind these simplistic games. Still having tough times? Or, can you get off this trend of weekly junk and get back to creating the games that were what got you your fame and admiration to begin with.
I really can't believe BF allows or even promotes these horrible games.
As an aside, I want it known that I love animals very much with a multiple kitty household that until a short time ago was governed by an adorable little pup that was with me 16 years.
I am also proud to say that I donate to the Humane Society when I can, and would never consider supporting these games with money I could use to take care of my own or donate to help real animals.

So here is the 2nd release of this series of who knows how many to come from this developer that does nothing but slap together a few antediluvian game styles (swapping, matching, spot the difference, etc.) ---- assemble them with wallpapers that no one gives two hoots about, a music player that no one uses, divide the level select so you can call it a CE ---- and voila! ----- you have today's new game ---- a collection of old, uninteresting, been there done that games. Pitifully insulting to casual games.
I am not a fan of Tiny Little Lion, or Boomzap, or whatever they are going by ---- because I am tired of being shown these games that use the same format, offer the same chores, have zero story, and offer nothing new in any game, and present them as "new" games. They are not. They are redundant, they are throwbacks that have been gussied up, and they are very weak additions to the BF catalog.
This one may have something "new" though ---- concentration called "memory"! (Where is Hugh Downs when you need him?)
But I am sure there will be those that praise this total lack of effort and the result will be more of this type of gaming junk ---- now being released as CEs at least once a week.
I think about Thursday's excellent offering, then this. Once again, it is penthouse to outhouse.
Tiny Little Lion ---- your games are inexcusably boring. Time to find something else and stop with the same old, same old games.

I completely agree with the positive reviews ---- everything about the game is entertaining, captivating, and fun.
So clearly several levels above the "busy work" games we have been bombarded with lately. This game makes them look like the weak offerings they are, and games like this are what I come to BF to play.
Highest recommendation!
I recommend this game!

Had no problems with #2 (bought at another site) but this one yields the result described by pennmom. And, after switching users to get out of the mess, it showed an access violation.
So, is the game good? I guess I'll find out when I can buy it elsewhere.
Shame on BF.
I don't recommend this game.
