This is a wonderful game. beautiful graphics, nicely played out, and the cutest baby dragon I ever had. This game has some critter action, Shadow HO,s and HO,s with task. All nicely done. Story was great and time flew by I was having fun.
It has some morphing objects or at least a critter that comes across in other forms and reveals itself when you find the like item and click on it. Either way it was a added bonus. Yet another one to go on the must buy list.
I recommend this game!

Love the Nightmares series. I own the first and it is a wonderful game and this makes a awesome sequel. Lots to do. Game has a map to jump around. The characters and animation was great as well as the cut scenes. Who wouldn't love a pirate game. This one goes on my must buy list.
I recommend this game!

I am surprised that so many games all ready that are great contenders for year of the award. I love HO's and this was the best ever. HO's inside of HO's and morphing objects inside HO's. The characters were slightly Corney but hey great story line and I was drawn into it all. I own the other Final cuts. This goes on my must buy list.
One of the best game plays for final cut and my second favorite one of the year. Have to buy this one now.
I recommend this game!

This one was really great. The HO's mixed it up which I like. Beautifully drawn and great characters. The story drew me in and held me. There was nothing not to like about this game. Must have list and already the fourth game this year that seems a great contender for game of the year.
I recommend this game!

An attempt to make a great HO fell short. Go look at Mystery Case files first HO's games from way back and you get a bit more. If this is a beginner in creating a game they did fine and will be good for beginners and children.
The characters were good the music okay and the scenes nicely done. Cut scene were okay, But when HO after HO after HO please use the different styles available. There are so many ways to make a HO different that this was disappointing even though the storyline of the game was good.
I was bored and sorry I would not recommend it unless a beginner.
I don't recommend this game.

I give this game four and half stars. Wow. It was very delightful fantasy. Beautiful and the characters were nicely done.
Lots of back and forth so it is good it has a jump map. Plenty to collect and awards and tons to do. Game followed very nicely. Nice music for the back ground.
Do I dare say this is already another contender for game of the year.
I also loved the play scenes and how they maneuvered to gain items and such.
I recommend this game!

Wow this is a keeper of a game. Beautiful scenes very interactive HO's. Cut scenes were played out very nice. Had a little bit of critter action. Slight use of music in back ground but nice use of it during game play working around all the instruments. So did not miss the lack of music in back ground.
This game could be a close runner up for game of the year award.
No Journal but cut scenes can be played or and something similar. The game has a jump map. Plenty to do and very well thought out story line. Left me hanging and wanting more.
I recommend this game!

If you play this game be aware that you need to click on blue words in item list. Sometimes up to three click to find the right item that will be in the HO scene. It took me a bit to figure it out.
The game is very interesting. A little slow. Great for beginners. I would buy it on a rainy day special.
Boring music and no map.
I recommend this game!

Love that this game gave me choices in problem solving. Nice paced game. Great cut scenes, great graphics, and lots to do. This goes on my must buy list.
The HO's were a little dark, but the settings were nicely done and the interaction in HO's were nicely done. Characters were fine and the rats dreadful. lol. Those rats must die.
Like some of the cute titling when I wind a award for the choice I make to solve a problem. You will have to play to find out what I mean.
I recommend this game!

This game is beautifully drawn. Plays out fairly smoothly. There are collectable pieces that have connection to the kingdom that are ghost like images. So not to hard to find. Puzzles were fairly easy and the map showed you exactly where to go and could jump you there if you want.
The cut scenes were boarder line on being just okay. The HO's were nice to look at and I like the ideas some of it came up with for interaction on certain items.
Wish the game would have been slightly more. Like not another detective game. Have a citizen drawn into the fro for some reason and stuck solving the situation. Back in that era more likely a different sort of person would have been solving the problem other then a detective. Unless I am off at the time period on this one.
Game is good enough for a buy.
I recommend this game!
