The game began well, but several puzzles, such as the microscope puzzle, did not work (clicked on the correct microbes to no avail). The CONSTANT objectives and messages - let us decide if we want these - were intrusive and irritating. The game is not for me.

Speaking as a registered nurse who has worked with pediatric patients and a game player, this was awesome! It portrays what families go through when their child/sister/brother is ill, and provides an interesting description of how a young child might mentally experience the illness. The games were fun, although a few lacked adequate directions. The creativity and art are on par with that of Drawn, one of my all-time favorite games. It was nice to see "multiple item games" similar to those popular 10+ years ago. I enjoyed the entire game - thanks Artifex Mundi!

I look forward to this game each year, and it did not disappoint. While the characters are unusual, they are set in a Christmas story. A good variety of games and great story line. Thanks, Elephant Games!

This is based on 20 minutes of play. The storyline is of several women on vacation. The discussion is mainly irritating instead of creating atmosphere. The graphics are ok, the music is very repetitive, and does not fade into the background. There is not challenge; it is one hidden objects scene after another with little storyline. There is no challenge. Not worth buying.
I don't recommend this game.

The story line is slow and predictable. Graphis are ok. Not as good as their past games.
The setup asks if you want to see objectives; if you indicate no, it shows them anyway. Irritating.
I don't recommend this game.

An interesting story line. However, one would think that after all the iterations of this game, there would be a seamless transition between scenes. I won't buy the collector's version until the quality of the games improves. I would also like to see the objectives as an option. The objectives are apparent and the windows with objectives are irritating.

I enjoy the Vacation Adventure games and have all of them. However, I will not buy another one that makes you wait 4 1/2 minutes when you don't want to play a game! Most of the games are fun, but several are not. Why the penalty in a "fun" game? It is not fun anymore!

You are in a storm and see a house nearby.... The play is several match games then a HOP. There is little story line. The graphics are not good so items are difficult to see.
I don't recommend this game.

This review is based on the demo. Others have described the game elements so I won't repeat them. The story line is interesting and so are the puzzles (although not challenging#. I like the varying numbers of morphing objects, new element (won't give it away), and flow. My only critique thus far is that while the still graphics are very good, the moving graphics are slow and lack clarity. I will definitely buy this game!
I recommend this game!
