Pros: Had an interesting mixes of hidden object type games. Also had to collect coins to buy items within the game to find clues. Nicely drawn graphics.
Cons: really annoying to have to keep waiting for the characters to finish speaking before you could continue. Why have a "Skip" button on dialogue instead of just clicking to continue? Made it slow and clunky.
I don't recommend this game.

Little fish took so long to respond to commands to change direction and get anywhere I gave up after 5 minutes of the trial.
Has potential for being fun and challenging but not at that pace.
I don't recommend this game.

This is a game of 120 irregularly shaped jigsaws. They are beautifully drawn with gorgeous colours.
In each of the 6 areas the pieces are designed to look like a different natural material; wood, glass, polished stone, fabric etc. As you drop the pieces into place they make the appropriate noise for the type of material.
I would have preferred an option of untimed mode, but you can just ignore the timer. Slightly oddly, you are encouraged to use hints rather than penalised for it.
I've really enjoyed playing it and relished the rich colours and designs.
I recommend this game!

Finished demo in 25 mins - would it be good value for money?

Good game, but I finished the demo in 25 mins (I watched some but not all of the cut scenes). My suspicion is that the full game could be finished very quickly and wouldn't really give me value for money.
That said, the scenes were beautifully drawn, the voices not too irritating, and I liked the clockwork aspect. Some of the mini games were unlike any I've played before which made a nice change.
I don't recommend this game.

Absolutely loved this game. A real challenge. Lots of puzzles to solve and every one is a different type. You really have to look around for clues too. Beautiful graphics.
I recommend this game!

Didn't even want to finish the free trial.
I couldn't get comfortable with moving around the screen using the mouse as a pointer. The scenery kept swinging violently around.
There was a lot of reading which didn't seem to be related to any of the puzzles. The things you were asked to do didn't seem to be very interesting either.
Just not very gripping story or puzzle. Nicely drawn scenery if you can get it to stay still!
I don't recommend this game.
