I usually like these games but honestly, I was bored playing this. I've noticed in the last few VA: PR games, the developers have made finding some of the recycling items really difficult (some almost impossible). Very frustrating. I wish they would allow using the hint button to find those items.
I don't recommend this game.

When I got to the FOURTH suitcase minigame I had had it! It didn't matter where I tried to move the items they would bounce back to their 'original' places. We had to wait 90 seconds to skip? They also didn't even bother to show what the proper placement was? Frustrating to say the least! I normally love HO games but not this one.
I don't recommend this game.

Couldn't advance because the game wouldn't let me buy the required things even though I had enough money/assets? I was about 30 minutes into the demo & couldn't even find the menu button so I could quit, had to C/A/D to get out of the game.
I don't recommend this game.

This is one of those games that frustrates the heck out of me. No clear instructions on what to do & where to do it. I found myself using the hint button way too much. Also, as others have said, NOT A HIDDEN OBJECT GAME!
I don't recommend this game.

I generally love match 3 games but this one was bad. I couldn't progress past the 7th (?) level! The counter said I had two more tiles to get rid of but I couldn't find them. There was a line of plain wood boxes above the locked wood boxes where I'm guessing the two remaining tiles were? But no way to get to them. The bottle at the bottom left was way past full but no way to buy tools to progress! I finally gave up with 20 minutes left on the demo!
I don't recommend this game.

After it took FOUR tries for it to actually open so I could play it & after playing the demo, I wished it hadn't opened. Too much back & forth, too MUCH TALKING that you can't skip & having to use the hint way more than I like! This was just at best annoying & a no-buy for me!
I don't recommend this game.

The game flashed/flickered at me through more than half of the demo (very annoying), also too much dialogue. Although I didn't have any trouble with clicking like another reviewer. But I almost fell off of my chair laughing when Sir Rottenmier (or whatever the guy's name was) appeared, the armor, the weird mohawk? As a matter of fact, most of the characters were weird.
I don't recommend this game.

I generally love the Jewel Match games (I bought a couple) but this one didn't draw me in. First, it seemed like we were back at the very beginnings of the series. Seemed a bit clunky & instructions were a bit vague. I couldn't get out of the first 'pearl' level, nothing would move except for that directional arrow pointing up! I finally just hit the home button, then the map & went on to the next level! Frustrating to say the least. Castle building was strange, it takes you back & forth & no 'previews' of parts to come when you hover over the next part.
I don't recommend this game.

I generally like the games with Dupin but this one was very annoying. Not enough direction, I had to keep hitting the hint button. Also, too much dialogue. Plus this was another game in the last few weeks where my computer warned me that the game couldn't be downloaded securely?
I don't recommend this game.
Neverland Treasure is a superb match-3 puzzle game with popular characters from Peter Pan!

As the others have said this is a game for the kids. Not much of a challenge. I also found it odd that he was called Peter PEN throughout the demo not Peter PAN!
I recommend this game for kids.
