3 / 5
Graphics: With cartoon-based graphics, everything seemed clear.
Music/Vocal: The music and sound effects seemed appropriate for each scene. There weren't any voice overs which was good and bad at the same time.
Puzzles/HO: The puzzles and hidden object scenes where extremely easy and very basic. Granted, each HOS was related to the story line so you weren't looking for a bunch of random stuff that wasn't important to the storyline.
Length: I finished the game in about 2 hours and 45 minutes so it was a short game.
Characters: The characters seemed predictable to me and not very memorable but with a basic game like this, the characters fit right in.
Story: The story, as with the game, was very basic. You play as a gypsy who is hired by a monk to find the Tower of Secrets and rescue his friend.
Downsides to the game: In the game you are supposed to go around at each scene and collect gems to use as payment for random objects you need. Well...these gems are kind of hard to find so you need to really look close for them. Another problem with the game was that the hints/helps weren't always very helpful. Sometimes they are very detailed and other times they are very cryptic. Lastly, and the main one, that stupid squirrel (on the tree with the door in it) made the most annoying noise that I just wanted to grab it and chunk it out my window.
Overall: The game was ok in my opinion. There wasn't anything really outstanding about it. Now I would think this would be a good game for younger kids who have an interest in HOG but other then that, it was pretty plain.
I don't recommend this game.

Tiger Eye was such a wonderful game. The story was compelling at the get go and it kept you enthralled. I had to admit that I loved the romance to the story since you don't see a lot of lovey-dovey HOG. The artwork was beautiful and also simple which was nice since everything was clear. Every puzzle and mini-game was challenging but not too challenging to the point where you want to pull your hair out. All in all, I loved the game and can't wait for part 2 to come out!
I recommend this game!
