I will never blindly buy another MCF game. I have always waited for the new release of the MCF Collector Editions, so excited but this one and the previous one which was all HOPS were terrible compared to the previous run of amazing adventure games with enormous Masterful Puzzles and limited HOPS, if any. This was an adventure game but the Master Puzzles were short and easy. Still not up to par for a MCF game. What happened to the designers for these games?
Thankfully this game was one of the few with interactive hops and not too many. Puzzles were fairly creative, some tougher ones which took some time which I like. The main game was a good length with a decent length bonus game. Lots of places to go, so good adventure game. More chatter than I like but you can skip through most of it. Too many mini movie clips. Had collectables, morphing objects.. All these games always use smelling salts, paper clips for zipper heads, and need to oil everything, what's up with that? Game play wasn't that smooth, and slow talking parts which bothered me. Seemed dated as far as that goes. I would recommend the CE on a deal.
So important when purchasing a CE is the length of the main game and the length of the bonus game, both of which were pretty good, a lot better than others. The game was fun, not top of the list but better than most. Hops weren't very interactive which I prefer, puzzles were ordinary and not very creative which I like. For games with a lot of chatter this is one of the very few I can tolerate but still has way too much character chatter. So with all that it gets only 4 stars from me. This game has so many series and I'm personally tired of it, but it's a worthy CE for the bonus game length. No collectables which was very odd and I like collecting objects throughout the game. I'd recommend if you get the CE on a deal.
I love my favorite kitty Mr. Jenkins but this was the worst of them all. I didn't care for the story much, found it bit boring but had to buy it for Mr. Jenkins. Hops are ok, not too many thankfully, puzzles were ok but not very creative which I like. You collect morphs symbols but the bummer part is at the end you can't go back to the places you missed to find them, you have to play the game over again and hopefully get them all so you can complete a puzzle. This really grinds my gears! The bonus game is lousy and short but the worst part was there was no Mr. Jenkins! So no I do not recommend the CE but if you love Mr. Jenkins I recommend the SE.
If you like creepy games, this one is a good one, not the best but good. Smooth game play, fun adventure, and creative. A bit too much chatter but you can click through it. Not too many hops, good puzzles but not great. Why does it take soon long for a MCF game to come out? I love the Insane Asylum games and this one reminds me of them sort of. The only problem I had was that the Bonus Game was way too short and not worthy of the CE price. So that's why it gets only 4 stars. I would get this on sale or wait for the SE.
Because this game is super boring. I liked the story but it was just so typical with no creativity at all. The hops were tedious even though they tried to make them more interactive. Puzzles were meh. Way way too much talking, I think half the game was chatter. Bonus game was short and not worth the price of a CE.
I liked guessing who the killer was, if they made a comical version of Clue that would be fun to play. Game was a good length and the bonus game was a decent length, there is also a secret room which is ok. Main gripe is that I couldn't go back to get the missed tarot cards, instead I have to play the game again? I hate that. I'd say play the demo and see if you like and make your own decision but it's better than a lot of games that come out.
Don't listen to the negative reviews, I played the entire game plus bonus game which are both long game play by the way. Excellent game, smooth game play with a great contextual pointer. Very creative with endless fun mini games and puzzles. Hops were interactive and not too many thankfully. Beautiful and many places to travel, I especially loved being eaten by a giant plant and worked in rooms within it to get released. Very artsy game and original puzzles that the designer really put some thought into, thanks! This game was not run of the mill, this was thoughtfully designed and very unique. I love collecting puzzle pieces, the only gripe I have is if you miss one there is no way to go back and get it without playing the game over again. This is a long game you will really enjoy.
I loved this strategy game, I love the road building, resources game of this type wish more were released in a frequent basis. This one is a great one to play and a lot of fun. Also a good length and plenty of levels, thanks!
