This is a great game and a must buy! There are morphing objects, lots of places to explore, nice scenery and not too many puzzles where you get overwhelmed and miss the story. I just hated the demo to end because it kept my interest as I moved around from place to place and room to room. So far I have only encountered two people but I would assume that would pick up. There is a map to help you get around, a diary, a strategy guide and a hint button which will lead you to where you need to go next. This is a great game and also different from the norm.
I recommend this game!

Silent Scream II: The Bride
Jessica would never imagine that her big day would turn out to be a nightmare; they had an accident and Jonathan McNealy, her husband is missing.
I loved the graphics in this game, but it was just too slow moving. When you get caught up in too many games it just takes away from the theme of the game. I thought the story line was good, but the demo ended so soon, I really didn't get past the mansion door. This is a beginner game for sure.
I recommend this game!

Sacra Terra: Kiss of Death Collector's Edition
Experience a story about love so strong, it can overcome the most powerful evil! Explore visually stunning mystical dimensions and rescue your fiance!
I really liked this game insofar as fun and easy to get around. The storyline is good and the graphics are good. It's an easy to figure out game but is still challenging. However, as with so many of these games, it is demonic, but even more so than most so if you have a problem with that, don't even play the demo because it's pretty bad. I will recommend this game, overlooking that aspect of it.

Shadows: Price for Our Sins
Halloween decorations aren’t the only things hanging around spooky Stone Farm when a group of students unwittingly open a portal to the underworld.
This is a really neat game. The HOGs really make you think. I found it fascinating. I think you have to give it a chance, because I was stumped with the very first game and almost gave up. Thankfully, I wasn't the only one when I went to the forum. A lone girl went to a halloween party, and her friends all disappeared in shadows and it goes on from there but I don't quite understand where this is going. I am definitely going to buy this game NOW though. I hope it continues to be as interesting later in the game.

Motor Town: Soul of the Machine
Soul and machine are one in Motor Town, where a stunning mystery awaits!
I kind of liked this game, but honestly I couldn't get a grasp on what was going on. I got lost in all the HOGs - could have done with half which would have kept the story going faster for me. It is dark and dingy but that doesn't make it bad. I never even got out of the back yard. So, it's just an okay for me.
I recommend this game!

Mountain Trap: The Manor of Memories
Face a 200-year mystery and save your best friend! Discover how strong friendship ties can be and to what extremes unrequited love is ready to go.
There was no flow to this game. I only played a few minutes and I was bored. The visuals are good, and the story line is okay, but it's the same old stuff and I'm always looking for something unique/special. Not a buy for me.
I don't recommend this game.

Maestro: Music from the Void Collector's Edition
Eerie music fills the air in Vienna, where shadows terrorize people in the streets. Two musical prodigies have gone missing. Can you save them without striking a single false note?
This is an excellent game. Challenging, great story, fun things to do, neat scenery, easy to follow. A mix up of HOGs which alleviates monotany. It's just one of the best. Too bad not all of the games are like this.
I recommend this game!

The Mirror Mysteries: Forgotten Kingdoms
The highly anticipated follow-up to the smash hit Mirror Mysteries is finally here! The mirror is back—can you extinguish his power for good?
Right from the beginning this game was slow, with no challenge. I didn't get very far, other than playing the hogs in every scene which took up a good deal of time. I couldn't really get a fix on the story line. This game is a total bust for me.
I don't recommend this game.

Botanica: Into the Unknown
Use your botany skills to survive the strange new planet of Botanica. Can you find your way back to Earth in this thrilling Hidden Object adventure?
When I played the demo I loved this game, but after buying it I found that the games weren't always explained properly, in playing the hogs the stuff you clicked on didn't always work and the more I played, the more mini games there were and it just got way too scientific for me (not confusing, just annoying). I have to say the scenery with all the wonderful colors was really enchanting and I wish they would have kept it like the beginning. The animals were really neat too. If you like a lot of games and just mindless then stuff, then buy the game.
I don't recommend this game.

The Torment of Whitewall
Only one girl has survived the mysterious attacks on Whitewall, but she's not talking… So they've called you in to end the town's terrible torment!
Slow moving, story line is good, graphics are okay, but way too many HOGs. I think I actually would have bought it, if there hadn't been so many. It made me lose sight of what the story was actually about. It crashed on me mid way too, which didn't help.
