The demo for this game was great. I was very disappointed after I bought the game. It quickly went downhill and was over before I knew it. The graphics drew me in to the demo, but they got worse as well. All in all, I was not very happy with this game.
I don't recommend this game.

I'm not as young as I used to be and I know my eyes aren't great, but these puzzles were awfully hard for me to see. In the demo, some puzzles were very small and the ones that were not, were difficult to see because of the similar colors used in the drawings. The game may have a good storyline, but it was hard to tell in the short demo. I used the hint way more than I would normally do. I don't usually use sound, so cannot comment on that part of game. Visual just did not appeal to me. Maybe if I played more, I would change my mind about this game, but demo was over before I got into it.
I don't recommend this game.

Wow! I got stuck in a tutorial I didn't need and could not do a thing. Would not let me cancel or move on. Too bad.

I loved the original Mortimer. Follow ups leave me wishing for the original. My best description is "wooden". There isn't much to it. The items were kind of hard to find. It may appeal to some people.
I recommend this game!

I managed to walk around for 10 minutes before I uninstalled this loser. Why did it get such high ratings? I must have missed out on whatever those raters played. Boring doesn't even begin to describe this "game".
I don't recommend this game.

I was aMAZEd I made it through the demo. A real NIGHTMARE of boredom. I don't think a free coupon could get me to install this stinker. Just not my thing.

This was very annoying. It just jumped into the game, I guess, with no intro or instructions. I like some idea of what I'm doing in a game. I figured out how to find main menu and quickly made an exit and uninstall. You couldn't give me this game. Bad. We should have a zero rating for games this awful.
I don't recommend this game.

I don't think I played the same game as other reviewers on here. Based on demo I thought this game was terrible. Half the time I didn't know what was going on. Had to use the hints constantly to figure out what was taking place. I've never skipped so many games. They either didn't work or directions were unclear. I muddled through the demo and promptly deleted the game. Total waste of time, but was too hot to do anything else.
I don't recommend this game.

This game didn't do anything for me either way. I completed the short demo and it was just blah. I don't think I'll buy this one. Maybe as an SE later.

This game did start to get a little better by the end of the demo. Seemed to work okay, which is a blessing any more. However, it just wasn't that interesting to me. Lots of backtracking to same places. I hit skip on most of games. They were boring to me. I probably wouldn't get it even on sale.
I don't recommend this game.
