As many other gamers, I've been waiting for a good time management game for a while now. This one definitely disappoints. Gameplay is slow, it's hard to multitask or plan ahead. It took me awhile to figure out how to get chain bonuses, in order to reach expert levels. The game won't prompt you to do that. The absolute worst was trying to tell dogs from rabbits as they looked almost exactly alike, which was super frustrating. The locations and the graphics are cute enough, and gameplay on the easiest levels was quite entertaining.
I don't recommend this game.

This game was great to begin with. I love it that the graphics are so detailed, and if you have a keen eye, there are lot of fun surprises hidden in the background! Seemingly there are a lot of options, but if you want to do it all in 100 days or less, there's really a very set path you can take and the challenge is lost once you figure it out. But until then the game was super fun!
I recommend this game!

It's a good game, but note to developers: the inventories "fan" is a pain! You have to keep clicking on it constantly to open and close. It should stay open for awhile if you need several inventories items.
I recommend this game!

I only tried the trial version to kill an hour, but it was super fun and I got hooked instantly! It's much better than the previous supermarket games. The characters are better thought of and the visuals much better than before.
I recommend this game!

Nice start, but the demo was only 20 min long. That isn't long enough for me to get so hooked as to purchase the game.

Having read some of the previous comments I didn't expect much from this game, but was pleasantly surprised. The gameplay is a bit slow for adventure seekers, but the visuals are excellent, and I got totally immersed in the game. This is perhaps one for the gals, and I expect guys won't rate it so high because of the theme. There aren't too many hints, and you have to be careful to read the character commentary, but I found that added to the challenge. Nicely done!
I recommend this game!

The first two Dark Parables games might have set the bar a bit high, but in that light, I found this one a little disappointing. Still, it's very good compared with a lot of other stuff out there, hence four stars. But I found this game to be more about the visuals, which are great, than the challenges, which I found less intriguing than the previous games. Specifically, it's frustrating when the game allows you to zoom in on areas of interest, although there is nothing more to be found in that spot. You have to go back to every one of those scenes to look again in case you missed something every time you get stuck.
I recommend this game!

I'd like to give more than my 3 stars for the effort it took to make something a little different. But unfortunately my patience was really tested with this game. The objects are really small, and zooming in, to my embarrassment, I got slightly motion sick. It's not a good thing if a game gives you a headache and a queasy feeling in the pit of your stomach.
I don't recommend this game.

This game is basically one hidden object scene after another. I got bored after 20 minutes. It's relaxing, if that's what you're looking for.
