I played the demo and liked everything about this game, the story, graphics, music and HOS puzzles and games. The main character is Goldilocks son, left motherless 3 years before. He is charged with saving his father and the village from mystical bears, who it seems are on a murderous rampage. Puzzles are not hard and follow a logical path, not too much going back and forth, but some. Very good game for those who are beginners in the HOG scenario. The challenges are not what got me interested, but the storyline itself. I finished the demo when the hero was changing to a bear!. I have got to know what happens.
This game offers 4 levels of difficulty, which I very much like the Custom. I will probably purchase this game.
I recommend this game!

This review is based on the demo. I had a sense of playing an outdated hidden object game. So much clutter and too many things to do in the few scenes in the demo. I would forget what I was looking for. Some of the scenes were very dark and really hard to pick up on what is supposed to be done in a particular scene. The cursor had to be run over a scene very carefully to find anything even though I had the difficulty set at casual. Did not like this game. Very tedious and boring.
I don't recommend this game.

This review is based on the demo. I enjoyed the demo version immensely and will probably buy this game. The storyline is mysterious and supernatural. An evil man has found an artifact that can allow him to warp time. The world is at stake for time has become like a runaway train. The granddaughter is trying to save the world plus her grandparents who have been captured in the evil mans time frame. It seems he is in love with her grandmother and wants to prevent her grandparents from ever meeting.
The graphics are fantastic as are the HOS, cluttered but clear and challenging. Music goes with the storyline, not too intrusive or constant. Puzzles are not too challenging for hints are given in a camera phone that records everything. I especially like the scene maps you pick up to compare with scenes and open a new puzzle or HOS. There are four levels of difficulty including custom which I like. I can change the time of hint and skip times.
All in all ERS did a good job with this one.
I recommend this game!

My, my, what diverse reviews. The reveiws were so different that I just had to try the demo for myself. And I liked it. It's worth buying in the SE version. Three modes of difficulty. No music, which is a nice change. A variety of puzzles that are easy to hard, skipped a couple but managed to figure out most. Love the Hidden object scenes, first find the objects then place the objects you found in another scene. The storyline is average at best but the graphics are very well done. This is just a fun, relaxing game to play.
I recommend this game!

The first thing that struck me was the same old mediocre storyline, witches curses, people murdered and disappearing. However graphics are excellent, music fits the mood, lots of puzzles that are easy to hard. Plenty of hidden object scenes, but not very challenging. I only played in casual mode in the demo, but it really didnt hold my interest enough to buy. For the beginner, this would be a challenging game.
I recommend this game!

This second in a series of 1000 doors game is even better than the first. Beautiful graphics, plenty of different scenes to explore, mini games and puzzles not too difficult, but hard enough to be a challenge. I really like the idea of the same characters, but a tip to the creators, please put a different outfit on the main character, its been a year since her last visit. Nice unobtrusive music. HOS challenging and interactive. Fun to play. Always anticipating the next scene. A lot of going back and forth, but thats par for a HOG. Love the interaction between the characters, voice overs great. Keep up the great work!
I recommend this game!

Love this game! Great, whimsical story-line. Save the princess from the dragon. Graphics are excellent. Only voice over in the cut scenes. Great! The rain falling in some HO scenes is a nice touch. Ingenious puzzles, not your run-of-the-mill connect the dots. Really don't need the strategy guide, click on something and it practically tells you what you need. You do have to go back and forth between scenes to find objects that will allow you to get through to another scene. Had fun in the demo, love the narration in cut scenes, keeps you interested.
I recommend this game!

Was this game intended for 10 year olds? Graphics are ok, music is annoying, too much dialogue, cartoon-like storyline, HO scenes a concoction of different styles. Find same objects in an area, find objects by their silhouettes. Some objects are hidden behind things that glow slightly. This game not for hardcore HO gamers. puzzles too easy. Nice game for kids.
I don't recommend this game.

graphics are good except for the HO scenes, a little mishapen and dark. Music was nice and unobtrusive. Run-of-the-mill storyline. A handmaiden in 12th century AD waits for execution in a tower and is released by the real culprit. This is where I lose interest, instead of trying to get away, she stays to fix the wrong done by the real culprit. The game only allowed me 33 minutes of play, I guess I was too fast for it. Nice HOG for beginners.
I recommend this game!

Finally! A HOG that keeps you interested. Beautifully done graphics, great music, puzzles not too hard yet not too easy. Love the storyline. HO scenes fun with just the right amount of interaction. Just played the Demo, but kept me intrigued. Moves along to different scenes at a good pace, not like some HOG's that have you stuck going back and forth between 2 or 3 scenes. You do have to go back to scenes ocassionally to get objects to finish puzzles, but not so far that you forgot what it was. Love it! Got to have it!
