This series, created by BoomZap, is one of the best series I've every played. Just finished playing this one for the 3rd time.
Devs...PLEASE make more Dana Knightstone.
Must try them all.
All I can say is everything about these games is great.

I'm enjoying this game. I usually buy/play almost all of Domini's games. I don't recall having tech issues with their games, but this one has them. Cannot purchase items with the tokens I earned...when I click on the token icon, I move into the "closet", but when I click to purchase an item, nothing happens. We pay more for CE games to get all these extra bonuses - They should all work!

I was shocked to see all the bad reviews. I am thoroughly enjoying this game. Some of the mini-games are new (I've never seen before). Story and graphics are great. Don't let the bad reviews lead you astray.. give it a chance.
I recommend this game!

I guess this game is a must try first. I was hesitant after so many bad reviews, but I'm really enjoying this game.
I am a huge fan of very bright, colorful games.
I'm a little confused as well regarding how Walter fits into this story as Miranda is married to Bernard (and, Bernard does make a comeback.) Hoping all gets explained as the game progresses.

Yeah to the developers. I had so much fun playing this game. I've played some games lately that I could care less if I finished (got them with a BOGO), but not this game. I experienced some new features while playing. Not sure why it's getting many bad reviews. To each his/her own. Give it a try.
I recommend this game!

This game is created by the same developers as the "Dana Knightstone" series. Bar far, ONE OF THE BEST series I have ever played (and played numerous times). This one does not even compare. I only bought it because of the BOGO sale this weekend. Without that, I probably would not have.
Note to developers... if you really want to sell a game, make another Dana Knightstone game with it's original format.
That would be a buy for me

I am really enjoying this game... then I found out why - Because it's from the creators of the Mortimer Beckett series (which, I feel, are the best games offered in a HO format. And, my personal favorites). A must try.
Now that this game is available, I hope that a NEW Mortimer will be following.... one can hope.

I found this game to be very enjoyable. I will agree with others that it is too short. I did not mind that Richard was on "vacation".
This is a must try game.
