After about 3 weeks I finally finished this fun game using a walkthru and 3 videos. I ran out of the firefly hints early on so had to keep plugging away. This is the best of the campfire legend games but the other 2 are good too. There is no puzzle skip buttons so it is all up to the player.
This game kept me interested off and on over a 3 day period and I couldn't wait to get back to it every time I had to stop playing. I keep hearing that evil little girl voice all the time. I bought the SE and wish I had looked for the CE but at the time I bought the SE I thought it was an average type game. The HOS and puzzles were very different as was the story itself. I had a little trouble with the ending but with patience and perseverance I finally finished it. I am going to play it again in a couple of weeks.
I really liked this game as it was long and had many different puzzles and HOGS. Story line was interesting too. I really liked the map on this game as it made it easier to get to scenes where there was some activity to do.
Wow!! This is some game. It was very hard and had some road blocks but I was able to figure them out with the help of the forum and the walk through. It took me the best part of 4 days and I had to restart under a new name because I never could find the pentathon grave stone but on the second go around I had no problem. Again I was totally amazed at the directions the story took and the different puzzles. I really was discouraged at times and thought I would never complete the game but you have to keep going.
Hard to get puzzles to work and then even harder to skip puzzle. I'm not going any further. I might try later.
I don't recommend this game.

I bought this game in October 2012, had trouble playing it and put it on the shelf until this week. I just finished it today after using the walk through which wasn't always so accurate The alternate was confusing at times but I feel some amount of accomplishment in finishing the adventure and will look forward to the story being continued. Although the forum comments suggests there are some glitches I think it is just that the game is difficult at certain points in the story and you just need perseverance and patience.
