This game is not worth the price of the collector's edition. The graphics are grainy, the action slow and the maze is a joke as is the ending. It is a long game and the HO'S are inter-active but that's it. I forced myself to finish it. What a let down. Obviously others thought differently. Oh well !!
I don't recommend this game.

Echoes of the Past: The Castle of Shadows
Restore the royal amulet to break an ancient curse and stop an evil witch from regaining her terrible powers!
This game was tons of fun with lots to do and many different scenes. The biggest draw back are the graphics: they are somewhat grainy and for that reason it's not a 5 star. Pros: long playing time at many different locations lots of HO'S and mini games plenty of challenge
Cons: grainy graphics the music was monotonous after a while
This was a mystery about a romance. I quite enjoyed it and felt the graphics were beautiful. Instead of being a detective, you are cast as a writer uncovering a story. Pros: long playing time pretty graphics not a lot of back and forth good storyline
Cons: There were too many mini games. You couldn't do much without completing one first.
This was a fun game with lots to do and places to go. This developer has done many games and has a what I call a standard format and this was the usual format game. Pros: long playing time good mix of HO'S and mini games graphics OK you get your money's worth
Cons: As I said, somewhat standard.
I recommend this game!

Dark Strokes: Sins of the Fathers
Guide Ethan Black as he attempts to rescue his bride-to-be from a terrifying menace known as the Faceless Ones!
This game has good graphics and a long playing time, but something was missing for me. It just didn't grab me. Perhaps it was the uninspired story line of evil forces trying to ruin the world, AGAIN. There are plenty of mini games and HO'S and all the factors to make a good game. So on that note I do recommend this game.

Dark Parables: The Exiled Prince
Investigate the disappearance of the chancellor's daughter and uncover the long lost kingdom of the exiled Frog Prince!
This is a fantastic game. I loved the FROGS, music, long game play and graphics. You take a wonderful fairytale journey thru a make believe world with lots to see and do. The music during the FROG scenes is hauntingly beautiful. I have played this game several times and will continue to do so. I would give this more than 5 stars if I could. Go for it.
I recommend this game!

F.A.C.E.S.
When a medical consultation goes terribly wrong, it's up to you to realize the full potential of your ability and save the day!
This game is fun to play and for HOG fans , there are a lot of them. There is quite a bit back and forth. You might need to jot down what is where because it can be challenging to remember.
Pros: Long game play Lots of HOGS Great storyline You have to think about what you are doing Good graphics
Cons: The ending was a real let down but I won't ruin it and say why.
I highly recommend this game: fun challenging different

Angelica Weaver: Catch Me When You Can
Track a mad man across time and investigate a gristly murder from the past!
This game is totally different from all the other games I have played. You go back in forth in time to find clues to help solve the mystery, but it's done in a realistic way so it doesn't seem at all fantasy like. I was sorry when the game was over.
This is a true adventure game. You collect dream catchers and these are you allowable hints. I collected them all and only used a few. You also collect badges.
You have to think about what you are doing and how to use what you have.
Truly a remarkable game and I hope to see more of them; a must have game for sure.
I recommend this game!

Royal Detective: The Lord of Statues Collector's Edition
Save the besieged alpine village of Martlet and rescue its residents from the mysterious living statues in this exciting Hidden Object Adventure game!
This is a terrific game. The only negative was the bonus game which is very short and rather absurd. That said everything else is a pro.
Beautiful graphics Long playing time Surprising storyline A real balance between HO'S and Mini-games Lots of adventure - picking up items and figuring where they go.
I always play in casual mode and had a blast with this game. I was sorry to see it end.
