Tried this game not expecting a lot, and it is yet another copy/paste game with the usual mix of HO scenes alternating with puzzles. To be honest so few BF games work on newer Macs now it is almost surprising when a game does open and play. It seems no one is designing or testing games for non-Intel Macs. By all means try the demo but it's not worthy of CE prices
I don't recommend this game.

Normally liking this type of game I tried the demo, keeping fingers crossed that it would open and work unlike a lot of games for Mac. It did work, but I really could not find anything good to say about it. There is a "story", consisting of still images of characters with things to say, while it is possible to speed through this stuff it's mind numbingly slow. The mosaic puzzles are average, though there are too many steps to take to restart a level. Some of the colour numbers are very hard to see, mid and dark blue on a dark background for example. I really cannot recommend this, don't spend money on it
I don't recommend this game.

The reviews were polarised so an incentive to give the game a try as it's always nice to have a festive twist. The game downloaded, then like so many other Mac games would not run. It would have been good to at least review the demo, but until Mac games are made for the M chips that have been around for several years this will be a problem. I used to look forward to new BF games, but sadly not any more.
I don't recommend this game.

Based on demo, Mac version. This game provided absorbing entertainment with a balanced number of HO scenes and puzzles. It's good to find a Mac game that works at all as most games are designed for older Macs with Intel chips. Thanks to Elephant for this game.
I recommend this game!

Dedicated mahjong games don't crop up often, so this is welcome. Based on the demo, gorgeous visuals, decent challenge in the mahjong. For M1 and beyond gamers, added bonus that this game works, frustratingly all Mac games on BF are designed for Intel only so not many "Mac" games run on M1+ machines. This game is a definite recommendation for Mac gamers.
I recommend this game!

Based on the demo, this is a good game to pass some time, a decent mix of HO and mini games, none of the ones I did were overly challenging. It is just so good to find a game for Mac that actually works, all the Mac games are designed for Intel chips even though the newer native M chips are now on the third version. Recommended if you want a few hours' diversion
I recommend this game!

Based on the demo, this is a great antidote to the "me too" games that come along too often now. Though classed as a hidden object game, there are far more mini games than HO scenes in the demo. Quality of the story and graphics good, music I always turn off so can't comment on that. Also heartening to find a game for Mac that actually works. Do give this one a try.
I recommend this game!

After a week of many cookie cutter games, this looked a bit more promising. Unfortunately it did not work out. Mac users avoid.
I don't recommend this game.

Based on the demo, this is a game worth trying. There is a story to follow and dialogue can be skipped. There is a strategy guide but it's "outside" the game in a section called "more info", not an issue for those who don't want handholding.
I recommend this game!

Based on the demo, this game wasn't very engaging and the Irish accents were inconsistent and inaccurate. While it was a relief to have a HO game for Mac that actually opens and works on a Mac, it lacks in quality and character.
I don't recommend this game.
