This is a great game for those who want to do nothing but search for hidden objects. There's not a whole lot of challenge here, but lots of items to search. Not my cup of ea, but to each his own.
I don't recommend this game.

I love TMs & just didn't want to believe the negative reviews. Everyone was right! So sorry to have waited so long for a TM only to get this piece of trash! Confusing or underdeveloped instructions; slow, choppy movements; slow response. Please, BF, some of us love TMs, but if this is what you're going to offer, we'll wait a l i t t l e l o n g e r.
I don't recommend this game.

I only played about 20 minutes of the demo and was too frustrated to continue. You just can't play this game for all the cut scenes. It could have been a good game, but was interrupted way too many times to be able to enjoy it. Save your money!
I don't recommend this game.

Sorry I wasted a credit on this; it was over in no time. The map was not useful; the response time was slow and it was very repetitive. If you don't like much of a challenge and want a game that ends fast, buy it. Otherwise, save your money!
I don't recommend this game.

I'm trying to become a fan of HO games, since they seem to be 99% of what's offered. I played the demo and the game was just fine. However, if someone like me, who isn't even particularly skilled at such games, knocked it out in 8 hours, I hardly find it worth the money spent. It's not a bad game; just not worth the expense, in my opinion.
I don't recommend this game.

As stated so well by others, this game is a total bust. I don't usually buy HOGs, but I was tired of waiting for anything else - and this seemed okay. Hints have no purpose and you just keep going in circles without a strategy guide. (Based on "hints", I'm not sure the strategy guide would be worth the investment, either.) Save your money/credits for something much better!

This might have been fun, but the last thing I need at the end of a work day is tiny objects & tiny characters! Too much eye-strain for me! I'm a fan of dash TM games; not as much a fan of build-it games. Sound & color were very good. I would have enjoyed it far more if everything/everyone wasn't so small.
I don't recommend this game.

I am not a fan of HO games in the 1st place, but that seems to be 99% of what we're offered. For those who like the multiple areas/rooms, this is probably great. For those who are just looking for a destressing game to end the day, this may not be the one, Try the demo. It's a quality game of its type, just not MY type.
I don't recommend this game.

I LOVE TM games & have been waiting for a new one. Sadly, HOGs every day & FINALLY a TM. Too bad its terrible! As so many have said, this is NOT for those who like Dash & Mania games. It's boring, you have to be afraid to upgrade (or you won't have $ for necessary upgrades). I play TM games I've had over 5 years, just waiting for something good. This isn't it!
I don't recommend this game.

I'm a TM addict and was excited by a new one. HUGE disappointment! Even the tutorial was awful. Slow, lagging & "jittery". The thing I liked the most was how easy it was to uninstall!
I don't recommend this game.
