The one review that is offered does not do the game justice I do not think. Even though there is no map to use for getting around you do have the diary to help guide you. There are alot of HOS but there is also lots to do. I found the story interesting and it made me want to find out what went wrong in this town and just what experiment the scientist was working on. I think this is a game you have to try for yourself and see if you like it.
I recommend this game!

From the start I fell in love with the scenery and the little characters I came across. Any one who is thinking about doing more adventure type games will find this one a good start. Unlike hard core adventure games that leave you out there on your own, this one offers guidance anytime you need it. I like the fairy tale feel of the game and who doesn't want to help save a little girl who has been kidnapped by bad men. For those that still want Hos then you will be happy to know they are there as are the mini puzzles. I think just about anyone will enjoy this one.

To me this is one of the best series ever put out. It is story driven and you have to pay close attention to each of the characters you meet and talk to. They give you the clues you need in order to progress. To get a really good feel for the story I think it is a good idea to start with the first one which is the Severed Heart. Thank you so much Big Fish for finally getting this one out. Anyone who likes a game that is story driven will want this one in their collection of games.

I almost did not even try this based on the bad reviews given it. I am glad I did though as it really isn't a bad game. It is on the same order as the Dark Parables series. One of the things I liked the most was you were looking for only things you would be using rather then random objects that have no meaning to the storyline. I think it is worth trying and then you can make up your own mind if you like it or not.

Thanks BFG and the dev's for another amazing game. Like the other games in this series it is a developing storyline and leaves you hoping for the next one to be released. It has something for everyone because of all the different types of puzzles throughout the game. I hope we get to follow Brandon through all the stages of his life until old age and then make the last one him reflecting on his journey. For those who didn't play the other games you might want to do those first to get a good feel for the story.

I love that the developers stayed with the same format that they used in Mystery in Venice. The story is compeling and the graphics could not be any better. But, for me the best thing I really like is that the game follows a very logical order so you don't need to run to the guide very much. Another plus is that there is something for everyone no matter what type of puzzles you are into. Excellent game and I hope to see more of this series.

When you first open the game it is really cute and makes you feel for the little guy who has had his sheep taken. The cartoon graphics are just amazing and you think how hard could this really be. It takes a while to understand how to play the game. Case in point, to leave the first room which does not show a door and took me awhile to figure out to use the stairs in the lower right. The puzzles I have done so far are good but hard. Also note the you have to mouse up to the top of the screen to acess inventory and the menu. I really liked the game because it is different and offers a real challenge.

Right from the start I loved the storyline all about a town where all the people vanish just like that after a big storm. Everything so far surrounds the storyline and it is up to you to put things right and bring the town back to life. I am not so big on hidden object puzzles but liked the ones here in this game because there was so much you had to do to get the object that they were fun. I hope Big Fish can help anyone who has problems like the first reviewer did because I think this is a very enjoyable game.

This game is different then any I have played but I have to say I liked it for that very reason. The whole way the game is set up is different and takes some getting used to but after you play it awhile it starts to make sense. I love all the people May encounters and the story is good and everything is geared to finding her brother through helping the people she meets. The first puzzle was so easy I did not think the game was going to be challenging enough but the second one took those thoughts right away. I did 7 of the puzzles and all were different and harder then the last one and makes me glad there is a walkthrough because I know I will need it sooner or later. I think everyone should try it for themselves with a open mind as you may find you do like it.

Right from the start the developers make you part of the story and it is up to you to set things right and find the missing children. I love that the game showcases how by our actions fate steps in and changes lives either for the good or for the bad. I also appreciate the developers for making the story the driving force of the game. With such a varity of puzzles, adventure and ho's there is something for almost any type of gamer.
