This installment is a complete departure from the others. For me, totally frustrating. Nearly impossible to determine what to do next. No journal, no map, and the "nothing to do here" hints drive me nuts! I did buy it hoping things would bet better, but I've been at this forever and still haven't gotten to the second stage.
I don't recommend this game.

I'm not one for CE's, but not only did I get the SE, I also sprung for the CE. This is a great series, and this one lives up to the genre.. Great gaming.

Of all the match 3, build something games I've played this is by far the best. Took at least 20 hours to complete. It has a bit of everything... Try it, I'm sure you'll like it.
I recommend this game!

I liked the first and thoroughly enjoyed this Sacra Terra. Finally puzzles I could solve, objects I could find, and a map to keep me on the move. I liked the storyline, especially the 4th heart. No need for the walkthrough or strategy guide. There was lots of game time, but I might even spring for the collector's edition 'cause I was so disappointed when it ended.
I recommend this game!

This is by far the longest game I've ever played. It was a great game, but some of the cut scenes towards the end were really out there! I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I'm interested all things JFK, so I cashed in a credit for this one. It is the shortest game I've ever played. Little challenge. Even if it were a daily special, I don't think it is worth it.
I don't recommend this game.

Finally, a game that has some logic to it. Hidden objects that can actually be found without squinting and puzzles that make sense. I really liked this one. Music and graphics were wonderful and no interrupting voice overs. Perfect for me!
I recommend this game!

This is a great game. Very unique puzzles and HOS' are wonderful. Can't say enough about it. I did SE and was completely satified with is. There's probably another round in CE, but this was fine for me.
I recommend this game!
