It's an addictive game for sure... The demo hour passed very quickly but not sure that I want to spend a credit on it.
Initially thought it was a young child's game but as the tempo picked up I struggled to keep up with the customers. But the more tokens you earn the more help you can buy for your shop.
Graphics were clear and bright - the music annoying.
I recommend this game!

Really loved this game. Finished the demo and had to buy it. Ok, so the level of challenge isn't going to make the little grey cells smoke but for a little 'kick back time' you couldn't play anything better. The music brings a smile to my face and the little yeti that pops up at the side of the game every so often makes me laugh.
I recommend this game!

Because of a house move this game was played over a period of months. Nonetheless I enjoyed it immensely. It had everything I like in a game; map, varied HO's and mini games. The graphics were good and so were the sound effects.
I recommend this game!

Loved everything about this game. Mini games were varied and fun and the HOG's were clear and mostly easy to find. Music was good in the background and I also loved hearing the birdsong. The hint button filled quickly and the map was great. No getting lost for me !
I found myself hurrying to collect the keys to unlock each hidden world, and these worlds were something else.
There's nothing hard about this game, just good relaxing fun with a good storyline.
I recommend this game!

Can't add much to what the other 5* reviewers have already said. Loved everything about it especially the at times creepy music - really gave me the chills. The accent of the organ grinder made me smile as sometimes it sounded cockney (Eastend London) and at others Irish/Australian but it didn't detract from the story at all. Well done elephant !

What an excellent game. I've had it now for several weeks and always play it whilst eating breakfast. Starts the day well...
I'm still blown away by the versatility of the game as it's so much more than your average mahjong. Many game modes to play in, plus tiles to match whatever layout you choose to play. The sharpness and the colour of the tiles is 100% so even if your eyesight isn't perfect you won't find yourself needing to press your nose against the screen. This game will be a keeper.
I recommend this game!

I agree with other reviewers who commented on how short the game was, not what you expect from a CE. There was a fair amount of running about to do too which doesn't really bother me just so long as I know where I'm going. Had to use the hint button a few times.
All in all a disappointment but if you're happy with an 'okay' game than look no further.
I don't recommend this game.

It is a very atmospheric game and I thought the music well suited. My only criticism is that I found the HO's just to be a tad out of focus which made things difficult for me. I tended to use up my hints pretty fast. The game storyline runs pretty true to reality which I liked and if you're interested in true crime than this game is for you.
I recommend this game!

I thoroughly enjoyed this game. Yes it was a bit short, yes the music was annoying and the ' tra - la ' fanfare you got everytime you found a useful object almost drove me nuts but that said, it was a great way to spend a few hours. Personally I didn't think there were too many HOG's but then I'm a fan of them anyway. The storyline was the typical 'save the kingdom' but it was a varied fun trip doing it. The match 3's were fun and quick and if you got stuck in the game both the hint and skip button saved the day.

Would just like to warn other people that if you're sensitive to bad language than this might not be the game for you. It came fairly near to the beginning and was most unexpected. The word wasn't just spoken once but three times in the speech sequence. I'm not an old 'fuddy-duddy' but quite frankly I didn't find it necessary. In fact this is the first BF game that I've come across bad language.
Did enjoy the choice you had of either doing the HOG's or doing the jigsaw puzzles. As I found the HOG's cluttered I mostly did the puzzles.
I don't recommend this game.
