Bought and played Danse Macabre: Thin Ice CE. Don't need to do it again with this imitation. I love and look forward to morphing objects. Since no effort was used to create them for this game, it is NOT CE quality IMHO.
I don't recommend this game.

Not one of my favorite series but with all the 5 Reviews, I thought I'd give it a go. Graphics and sounds = excellent. The storyline was new and different. I hate drawing the ball without going out of the lines! The Review Title voices my complaints. I love morphs - none here. I'm old and forgetful so I need a map that tells me where I can do something. I think it's a solid 3 but no more. I also find it short for a CE. Not a buy for me but give it a try - you may like it.
I don't recommend this game.

This is my kind of game. It's more crime mystery than fantasy. I love morphing objects and there are 35. There are also collectables - 4 categories. Please try this game and cudos to the devs.
I recommend this game!

Played day early, Casual. I'm a retired Cartographer and I HATE the map. Nice to see a Dad save his daughter. I'm not a big puzzle fan and to ruin the HOSs with puzzles is just wrong. I played for 45 minutes and was so bored I quit. There is nothing outstanding about this game and does NOT warrant the CE status. I enjoy Morphs and collectibles which are not in this game. So, give it a try but I cannot recommend this game. Even as a SE it would not be worth it.
I don't recommend this game.

Very slow with no instructions and no logic.

Played Casual for only 30 minutes. HOS - tiny objects even with magnifier. No logic to acquiring inventory items. Definitely foreign and needed a proofreader to equate spoken words with text. Hint noise is awful. I really liked the storyline idea but it was too slow and illogical to tolerate.
I don't recommend this game.

Why have a map if you have to use a Hint ??? As on old, forgetful cartographer, I need and appreciate a good map. This one is worthless. As far as CE worthy, you collect 37 morphing crystal balls. Whoopty do! Try it if you want but it's not worth even 1/2 price.
I don't recommend this game.

Will be adding this to my desktop for when I only have 15 minutes to spare (do part of a puzzle because you can save). This selection is very pretty and a good selection. I have 3 others from this developer and enjoy. HINT: You have to create a Profile name so that in options you can have the pieces lock in to where you put them. Try and Enjoy!
I recommend this game!
It was supposed to be a routine mission. But when a dragon attacks your plane, crash-landing in a lush valley, you're drawn into the adventure of a lifetime!

I have the earlier Myths and enjoy this series. I played demo Casual. There are a lot of puzzles, even HOS have puzzles. I recommend you try this as it's not for everyone. I'm not fond of the Map although it does transport.
I recommend this game!

Graphics - good, really pretty. Sound - good. Puzzles on the easy side but good. HOS - some a little different than the usual and quite fun. 2 sets of collectibles.
Read the initial description of the game; he's forcing me to marry my father ? This needs to be reworded, but then why bother. This story has been told over and over and over. Come on ERS, hire some new writers with new ideas.
I might get the SE with a free Punch, but otherwise this is a no buy for me.
Will recommend for new players to BFG only.
