This was a fairly good game. Using today's coupon code to own it. It was about an average game leaning towards being a really good game. Ambiance music and atmosphere was decent enough. Lots to do. Collect storm symbols, find Morphing objects in the HO's, Nice HO's, and Good Characters.
Like most games but this one seem to have a bit more of it. A lot of things that did not make sense. Like someone else said. Grabbing a metal peg from a pole that is down with electricity jumping around and you can not cross because of it.
I recommend this game!

Wow was this game fantastic and possible the best out of this series. Runner up for game of the year award. Collectible eye creatures were semi hidden with what look to be like pods I think.
All the cut scenes were tippy top with great ambiance music. This game held my interest and has a nice little surprise within the first 5 to 15 minutes of the game in a ball like thing near the ceiling. That is all I will tell about that.
Nice pace, great story flow, lots to do with a great jump map, a journal, various HO's, and loved the puzzles. Great inventory list, beautiful scenes, Characters match their voices, and even some critter action.
Not one thing to complain about in this game and glad tomorrow is pay day. Goes to the top of the to buy list.
I recommend this game!

I thought the characters in this game were so cool, but for me the game was lacking in so many ways.
First the game over-sized itself so that all the reading I had to do all the words on the left and right side were cut off. I have a new gaming computer on Windows 10 so if this is a old game then I would understand, but it did not fit the screen. I did not bother to check it by unchecking full screen to see if playing it in a smaller window would do because the music and game was boring.
What a shame because the concept of solving a crime for Puss In Boots with a Weasel helper or was he an Otter? Well that would have been so fun if the game had not been so boring.
Try again with same characters but please give us better HO's some puzzles to solve which may be there later in the game but I did not hang in there long enough to find out.
I don't recommend this game.

This was a fairly enjoyable game. I think game flow was real good at times. Really enjoyed the the puzzles. Finding my way through the Labyrinth was pretty good. Would like to see a Labyrinth game where the map it still in pieces like this one and you have to solve little puzzles and HO's in different dead ends to bring the map together to tell you which path to take. Really like the puzzles in Rome. Game had some nice critter action.
Goes near to the top of my to buy list but not with my favorites at top of to buy list. lol.
I recommend this game!

Awesome game. Has high pack adventure, good characters, nice cut scenes, collectible emblem type cd and what looks to be like cogs. So collect both those. Morphing object in the working HO's. Fast paced, not to hard, Good play though game flow, critter action, and a good jump map.
Hidden Expedition just keeps getting better.
I recommend this game!

This was a pretty cool game. Like the use of the ruin I received from the boatmen who resemble death. Had critter action, jump map, Working HO's, fairly good characters, fairly good music, Nice game flow, collect puzzles pieces, and characters from the story.
Goes near the top of my to buy list.
I recommend this game!

The dark shadows that play in the night. No dancing with these shadows as they are out to destroy and possess you.
I thought this would be just a mediocre game, but was pleasantly surprised. Game was easy, but had most of my likes. Critter action, Good mix of HO's, Good enough Characters, Great graphics, Big inventory list, Nice music and story line and with a jump map. Oh and the game was slightly creepy. I like spiders but I know many who will get a shiver when they see this one. :)
Goes on my to buy list.
I recommend this game!

Story line was excellent, but the pink hues because of the title of the story was not my favorite to look at. HO's were symbol finds. Plenty to do and a jump map. Collect crystal Owl's, Character were okay. Cut scenes were just okay. Not one of Epix best nor most exciting games. I will buy it hoping the game play gets better but on the fence between like and not liking it.
I recommend this game!

Oh boy a little of everything. Critter action, cut scenes, HO's, beautiful silver skulls to collects, gruesome gargoyle awards, Slight creep factor to game, and great story line. Love the characters and the story had me so involved I forget to see if there was a jump map or even a map. lol. This game has lots to do. Game flow and ambiance of game right on target.
Top of the to buy list
I recommend this game!

This game could have been a great game. The only reason I gave it 2 stars because it was a good story, but it was never pulled off to be enjoyable.
The constant arrows was extremely annoying, Also the Exclamation mark you have to click on to start a conversation but do not have to click on it while getting responses to the rest of a conversation. Cut scenes were good. Story was choppy and you were left guessing on most of what you needed to do without really knowing why. I feel bad for the maker because making a game flow smoothly must be a hair pulling task. Try again. I would get this as a freeby just to find out the rest of the story.
What a shame what could have been
I don't recommend this game.
