I know, I know, ghosts and legends, but, there is a twist here. The HOGs are not average, the story line is great, it cannot be done in 30 minutes, and it kept my attention throughout. You are an investigator trying to solve the disappearance of a father and son, and only the little girl knows what happened. From there you begin the task of setting things right for a pair of star-crossed lovers and a social-standing pompous father. Enjoy!
I recommend this game!

You've returned from school to visit your father at his famous Jazz Pepper Club during Mardi Gras, but everyone is hypnotized. Have they heard the wrong note?

I found so many things to like about this. For once, it wasn't all overbuillt lily white princesses searching for their lost prince or whatever. I loved the music, which is such a part of New Orleans, and that the story follows real streets in New Orleans. The hogs were so different, and for once, you had to think things through. Thank you so much for such a wonderful game. I bought, I played, and I loved it.

Two levels, no real guide, an annoying dragon that "helps" with the clues (but you have to charge it with balls of fire). You help two young lovers on their quest to restore the land from the fight between cats and humans (think Beauty and the Beast tv show). If there was a sense to the game, I didn't find it. I won't be buying this.
I don't recommend this game.

This Youda game has been out for a while now. You are trying to find William, and there are lots of puzzles to figure out (without a strategy guide). Be sure to use the map; you have to find gold coins in order to progress through the game, and the map will help you find them. The demo took about 30 minutes on casual, but I'm not buying it. Too slow and too many "puzzles" that make no sense.
I don't recommend this game.

So many different games in one; I love the three options of level play, the story line is great, the graphics are clear, and some games have options (HOG v. Mah Jong). The music for once is actually worth listening to. Needless to say, I'm buying this! Enjoy!
I recommend this game!

FINALLY! A HOG game with a real story line! I enjoy HOG games, but this one is a twist; match the item instead of find the item (and they are not extremely difficult). The premise is also refreshing; instead of hunting ghosts, you "fix" the tragedies to a happier ending. The graphics are clean, nothing to dark so you can't see anything, but you do have to think and remember where things are, which is also a nice touch. I'm on my way to purchase the game. ENJOY!
I recommend this game!

Yet another HOG with a witch and an almost collapsing house and find the simple HOG. Yawn. The music is annoying (although you can change it to more annoying music). I think we've all been here and done this one.
I don't recommend this game.

Two minutes in, and I knew it was a Farm game. This time, though, you have multiple people working at the same time. Plus, the animals make noise and you can pet them. I think this is a great game for adults, but especially for younger children who will enjoy the sounds. It is not an easy Farm game, but I bought it anyway. My grandson loves it!
I recommend this game!
