As far as I can tell, it's basically the same gameplay as the first one. And if you liked that one, which I did, you'll like this one. But I really think the Lepracuon's Irish accent is worse.
A good game to play more than once.
I recommend this game!

I don't understand why Big Fish is even offering this game. It's not slightly close to the usual level of HO's I've come to expect from them. I agree with Sunny on this one, it's NO, …..JUST NO.
I don't recommend this game.

it's a good game, and it does have a flying bufflo! The puzzles aren't tedious , the HOPS are interesting. The storyline is silly, but they all are. And, so far, no car/train/carriage/airship crash. I hate those. Think I'll buy the CE.
I recommend this game!

Yes the weasel (ferret?) was annoying, and the voice acting sounded like they pulled strangers off the street and shoved a page of script at them; BUT, but the graphics were interesting, the puzzels weren't the same old, same old, and there was no car/boat/plane/train crash.
We're just so used to such high quality games that ones that aren't as good make us kinda sneer. Just take a step back, suspend your belief, and enjoy it for the fun that it has.
I think Elefun could have put more time into it, but not all of the games offered are always going to be A-1.
I liked it!
I recommend this game!

based on the demo, I liked what I played. the graphics were soft, colorful, and the music was simply background. Good storyline, and finding the origami cranes for the collection items took some careful eyework. Puzzles were simple, but not the same old HOP thing. Best thing was it didn't start with a car/boat/plane crash. I don't think it should have been a CE, but all in all a nice little game to while away an afternoon.
I recommend this game!

Based on the demo, this game 's plot apparently is a wrap up of previous Weird park games. Graphics and scenes were very eye catching, and the HO parts weren't same old find this, this, and that. Puzzles, although I had it set on lowest skill level, still made me stop and think, and were NOT tedious time wasters.
What I liked most was that there were no car, train, boat, or plane crashes.
All in all, this is a good solid game, not outstanding, but interesting.
I recommend this game!

Oh MY!! No car crashs, no cutie-pie helpers, no tedious puzzles, and no same old HO scenes! This is a great game, puzzles are hard enough to make you go "hmmmm", but not insane. Voice, graphics, music all excellent. You're going to like this one!! I'm actually going to buy the CE on this.
I recommend this game!
