I am so very tired of the same menial tasks in all of the Domini Games. They just do not listen to us gamers. This Dev used to be fantastic but has gone downhill for the last 5 or 6 years and this game is the same as all of the others during those years.
The demo was quite enough for me. I am exhausted from all those stupid tasks. Try at your own risk.
I don't recommend this game.

I am so disappointed in this game. I love Hidden Object Games and have been waiting so long for BF to offer us one. Well, this game is slow moving and the tasks are from their previous games. Nothing really new. The collectables are the same as Elephant Games always had.
This story line has so much promise but just does not deliver in my opinion. Still, slim pickings just might have you enjoying the game-so at least give it a try.
For me, it is not worth the CE price. No morphs-so sad!
I don't recommend this game.

Sadly, in my opinion this release is worse than the last one and that one was fairly bad. There is no story line that I could make out and the tasks are super boring along with the HO's. The puzzle are not bad but wow are there a lot of them and the tasks are multi-steps which was very boring and seemed to just make the game longer than it needs to be.
I think they need to either forget this series or bring back Rick and get rid of the excess tasks and characters.
Try the demo before you buy!
I don't recommend this game.

I have been playing games from BF since 2013. Back then the HOPAs were challenging, fun, and made you use your brain. They were a joy to play....WELL, this game is challenging, fun and a REAL joy to play.
I bought it at full price to show my support of this Dev. I truly hope they keep up the excellent work and offer us more of the same.
The story line is great along with the humor it offers. The HOPAs and Puzzles are a bit challenging so you have to reason it out or look at the SG. (To me it is more fun to figure it out)
Once I purchased it I started over to enjoy the beautiful scenery and check out every little detail of which there are many.
Try this game and take your time and Enjoy a Great Ride!
I recommend this game!

Collectors Edition it is NOT!!!!
Enter a world (Paris) maybe??? of reading, reading, and reading and then some.
Find object after object after object for no reason I could figure out.
Play puzzles that a 5 year old could do. What has happened to Zoom Bat and BF???
Please try before you buy. Good hunting!
I don't recommend this game.

Wow, I truly am at a loss as to what to say about this game. The graphics are poor and the story line makes no sense.
The HO's were okay. Nothing much new. I would try to put an inventory item where I knew it belonged but it would not let me, so after numerous tries I hit the hint button only to be shown it should go right where I was trying to place it. Not Good!
The tasks are very repetitive which was boring. Try the game before you purchase. Come on BF.....do better soon
I don't recommend this game.

The tutorial for the game is okay. What you miss in that you can figure out as you play the game.
It is a hidden object game in which the 360 degrees takes in sometimes a small amount of room, others a vast amount so some scenes take longer than others. Once you are finished you can pick the object you found and play the same scene again with different objects and try to improve your score, or
you can choose to move on and play the next scene.
There is a story line of some type, but it is very difficult to figure out what it is....they keep it very MYSTERIOUS!!!
I cannot say how long it is but depending on your choices as to move ahead or replay it could be a long relaxing game.
I will purchase with the sale on today. Try the demo and enjoy!
I recommend this game!

Finally, BF has stepped up to the plate and has given us a game that is so different from their usual offerings.
1st I have to say I love it because it is not a Domini hand holding game.
2nd It makes you think and use your brain cells.
3rd the graphics are good-especially for a click and point game.
I cannot say anything about the length of the game which gamers have said is short. I played the entire demo and did not get too far as I did not realize that I needed to save the game when I exited, therefore the game put me back a few steps and I did not realize it at first. So make sure you save your game and you will not have that problem.
No matter the length of the game I purchased it because it is fun and a bit challenging which is right up my alley.
Try this game and let BF know how appreciative we are for a different type genre and developer.
I recommend this game!

What a gem this game is. There is a lot to do and the hidden objects are different than most games as are the puzzles.
The story is truly one of a kind. This is not really a Christmas game but it is Christmassy....try it to see what I mean.
The graphics are very good as is the music. Very fitting with each scene.
The voice overs are good I deducted one star because the little girl sounds like an adult trying for a little girl's voice.
If you are into morphs and extras the CE is well worth the money but if not try the standard edition.
I truly recommend this game. It is a keeper.
I recommend this game!

1st I will give Domini credit for giving us a game that is fun, interesting, and so much more.
I have not been a fan of Domini games for quite sometime due to the same tasks and same everything in all of their games.This game however is NOT the typical Domini game.
The who done it is exceptional and a lot of fun. So much detail in each and every scene that you can play with and yes enjoy. I purchased this with a BOGO and did not try the demo which if I had I tried the demo I would have definitely bought it on it's own merits.
Give this game a try. I believe you will be pleasantly surprised. An overall 5 star for me!
I recommend this game!
