I almost gave this dog a five-star rating, because I got so many laughs from the corny dialog, especially the raven. The story and the "acting" are strictly of the B-movie variety. The artwork is cartoonish - no, it IS cartoons. The HOS are OK, and one thing I did like about the game was the map, which allows one-click hopping to different locations. Otherwise, there isn't a whole lot to like about this game. It's boring and a real chore to complete if you decide to do that.
I don't recommend this game.

Wow! What a fantastic game, excellent in every way! The artistry is top-notch with human actors for the characters. The story is intriging, assuming you don't dislike science fiction. The hint system is very good,leading you along the way. There is some jumping around to different locations, but the map allows one click jumps. The puzzles are somewhat difficult, but the skip button charges fast. Don't be mislead by the demo; it barely scratches the surface of this lenghty game. This is one of the best games that BF has offered.
I recommend this game!

This game is destined for a place in the Hall of Shame for bad games. There is an HOS around every corner, and, to make matters worse, the objects are difficult to find AND just when you think you're done, you have to find something else and use it in the HOS. The puzzles are difficult, and the skip button is slow in charging. The graphics are amatuerish, and the character "acting" is laughable, but so is the story. What's good about it? I was going to write that it was on sale, but any price is too much to pay for this game.
I don't recommend this game.

This isn't the worst game I ever played, but it's close. The story is dumb, and the music is enough to drive one crazy - better turn off the sound if you play this one. Some objects are so well hidden as to be invisible, and the hint system is almost useless. The only redeeming feature for me is that I only paid $2.99 for it.
I don't recommend this game.

This is one of the best games that BFG has ever offered! Everything about it was excellent. It may be a little too complicated for the faint of heart, and there is a lot of running around and finding needed objects and where to use them, but one will never lose interest in playing.
I recommend this game!

I was going to give this game a one-star rating, but I realized that this game is really OK for kids or adults who want a simple game. Also, it was a DD, so I only had to pay $2.99 for it. I wouldn't be so pleased if I had to pay full price for it. Objects are easy to find and are near where they are needed. HOS and puzzles are good. Graphics are cartoonish, and the story is interesting if not the best. All in all, the game is OK, and I think the authors did a decent job of presentation.
I don't recommend this game.

I thought this game was very well done and was very enjoyable to play. The map is great showing where there are tasks, so you don't have to wander around wondering what to do. The HOS were good - clear objects unlike some games. The usual suspects in the puzzles. The graphics are good, and the story is OK .
I recommend this game!

The only thing I didn't like about this game was that there was too much running back-and-forth. Otherwise, I thought is was an excellent game. The graphics are near photo quality. The HOS are reasonable. The map shows sparkles where there are HOS. The story is OK. I found the game to be very enjoyable and easy to get immersed in.
I recommend this game!

I guess many like this game, but I sure didn't. Game play is not always straightforward. I recommend using the walk-through. Also, it's a little too cutesy-pie for my tastes. The game is well done artiscally. I guess if I was just watching it like a movie, it is OK. As a game, I didn't enjoy it at all.
I don't recommend this game.

I found it very difficult to finish this game; darn my compulsion to finish what I started! If you like the play, My Fair Lady, I guess this is the game for you, although the singing in this game is amatuer theater at best. The constant wisecracks from the Cockney dude are enough to make one swear off games. Game play is awful, with super-hidden, not just hidden, object scenes with a slow hint clock. Other objects needed are also super-hidden in some cases. The story is dumb, too. The only good thing about the game is the map that allows one to jump around instead of click-clicking around.
I don't recommend this game.
