Cartoonish graphics with the horrible blue artwork. I have suggested repeatedly they buy the devs new crayons with multiple colors available. Alas, no one has payed any attention to my request.
I found the HOS a muddled mess with having to swing the cursor too & fro endlessly.
Did not find any redeeming qualities for this game. Just not my cup of tea.
I don't recommend this game.

As other reviewers have stated the items are way too small even with the magnifying glass. The hint button is useless. it showed a crayon in one place but never showed where to find the other one. The few pairs I did find I only found by constant clicking all over the screen. Just not a fun game.
I don't recommend this game.

Another boring, trite ghost/paranormal story with dark, dull graphics & amateur artwork. I, for one, will be greatly surprised when the devs come up with a new original storyline that has realistic artwork/graphics & bright colors.
I don't recommend this game.

Dreadful kindergarten level graphics & nonsensical story line. Unfortunately, this is the level of games coming out of Big Fish games lately. They are soooooo bad that I've accumulated 4 coupons & this is the first time I have ever been able to accumulate more than two. This tells me that the quality of games has taken a real deep nose dive. What a disappointment.
I don't recommend this game.

Rehashed storyline. Decrepit building, in this case a hospital, that is in ruins & of course, run by a demented doctor.
I get soooo weary complaining about the hideous, poorly drawn, overly colored blue graphics. Unfortunately nothing is ever addressed or changed.
HOS & puzzles are adequate but nothing special too write home about.
Had to fight too complete demo as it was boring & sleep inducing.
Give the demo a try, you just may like it!
I don't recommend this game.

Continual #1 complaint involves the dreadful & hideous BLUE graphics. Perhaps Santa can get the devs a new box of crayons for Christmas. (minus ALL shades of blue!!!)
Basic rehashed storyline where someone goes missing & now you must track them down. There are no new plot twists so the game gets a little boring quickly.
Usual assortment of puzzles. A few I liked & a few, like slide bars so an object can get from the left side to the right side, I really get annoyed with. The bars only slide right to left & not up & down which causes much frustration & a quick poke on the skip button.
It's a very basic game, good to play while lounging on a lazy day. If you want a challenge or good graphics this isn't the game for you.
I'll probably get the game, with a coupon, so I can take down that darn old snarly bear!
I recommend this game!

Each scene is a clutter pile where you have too click on duplicates over & over again ad nausem. In each level the last scene is swap tiles to make a specific picture.
After completing the entire first level I earned a table then I was on a search for a couch. The previous pick doubles routine is repeated. I suppose this how the entire game continues. I just didn't wait too find out.
I strongly suggest you try the demo before buying. You might even like it.
I don't recommend this game.

I know I've seen this storyline at least twice before, so I don't understand why some folks think this is new and special.
Graphics/colorization is mediocre at best.
HOGS are the same as other games. No updates here.
The storyline is a bit busy with the phantom popping in & out along with inanimate objects coming alive. I just found it to be disconcerting.
I don't recommend this game.

I found the game boring & tedious. The premise of the game was not explained well or even what needs to be done to get through the game.
Maybe I'm just old & dense but this game was definitely not any fun IMHO!
I don't recommend this game.
