I purchased this game yesterday with a discount and I regret it now. I was hoping it would be creepy, because I love creepy games. The graphics are very cartoonish and I did not even find the music creepy. I guess maybe it takes a lot to creep me out.
I don't recommend this game.

Shadow Shelter
Explore the abandoned house and search for the missing heir!
I got to the point that I could not wait to finish the game out of boredom. It starts out good with original puzzles and a good story line, but becomes very repetitive during game play. Not very challenging at all. I was very disappointed in this game. I was hoping to enjoy this game and was excited to finally see that it was not a kids game and that it would be creepy and a good mystery, but it is not whatsoever. A beginner might enjoy this game.
I recommend this game!

Witches' Legacy: Hunter and the Hunted Collector's Edition
Witch hunters have kidnapped Lynn! To save her, you'll have to team up with an old foe and storm their castle.
I like the first game of this series the best. The second one was not bad and this is not bad either. I found the second one more challenging. The imp I think could go, because I really do not see the point of having a imp to help you. It seems to me there were more HOS in this game than the second one. I felt like it was here we go again another HOS. I feel like the game would have been better if the HOS were not so frequent during game play. I would have probably given this game 4 stars if not for so many HOS. Can you tell I do not care for too many HOS.:) You can switch to a memory matching game. Hey, but you might really enjoy this game, so give it a try for yourself!
I recommend this game!

Esoterica: Hollow Earth
The fabled land of Agartha awaits your discovery in Esoterica: Hollow Earth! Experience a sci-fi adventure that will take you to the depths of the Earth.
After playing a soft release titled "Fall of the New Age" recently, this was not near as good. I did not care for the graphics. It was cartoonish. It reminded me of looking at a comic strip magazine from the 20's. And there is a lot of dialogue. Too many for me and a little too many HOS. I gave it 3 stars, because some of you might enjoy this game.

Wow!!! Finally a game that came out that I enjoyed!
I am so glad I just happen to look to the left of the big fish home page to see this game. I did not know they have soft release games. I will make sure I now check to see when the next one comes out. I wonder how many I have missed? I did not want to quit playing this game! I have not felt that way in along time! I have not enjoyed the new CE coming out for quite awhile now. This game is not to cutesy, too cartoonish and you do have a fury friend, but only to help you with hints. You need to use your brain at times and figure out what to do next. The puzzles are original. It is more of an adventure game with more puzzles than HOS. And very little HOS, which I like. I was actually sad when it ended and wished I had the CE, so I could continue with the adventure. I also feel bad for other fishies who might have missed seeing this game.
The last good Redemption Cemetery was "As you Wish". Since then ERS has totally ruined this series and also the Haunted Halls series. I have no idea why?? There must be new developers taking over and never played the previous games, because they seem to not know what the original concept of Redemption series was like. They are not even challenging anymore and way too cutesy and geared towards kids. The graphics are too cartoonish and the music does not fit the original premise of the series. It is so sad ERS is doing this and I wish they would stop ruining series that I loved to once play.
I don't recommend this game.

Alex Hunter: Lord of the Mind
Stop a madman from taking over a city using a mind control device!
I am so happy that one developer has not followed in ERS of Elephant foot steps in making the games too easy and child like. This is a game which an adult would enjoy! Graphics and voiceovers are great! Variety of puzzles, which I love. There is still a good amount of adventure. I would like a little less HOS, but were easy enough to quickly click on objects and continue with the adventure. I would have been willing to pay CE price for this game compared to the CE that have been coming out lately. More games like this please!!!
I recommend this game!

This game is by far better than the games coming out lately
I do not understand how you can give this game a low rating especially if you go back and play it after playing the more recent games. No pets, not cutesy and kid like! I played it again today for the third time and wow how I really miss game play like this! The third installment of the series was disappointing and so have the other series which have been ruined by pets and too child like. There has got to be a developer out there still who would like to fill the void that has been missing for sometime! I hope a developer reads this and brings out more games like this, because I have greatly reduced my purchases due the games coming out! And I miss looking forward to purchasing a game that I would like to play!
I recommend this game!

The Agency of Anomalies: Mind Invasion Collector's Edition
You're called to a health spa in the Alps, where an evil professor has something terrible in mind for his unwitting patients.
Maybe it is just me, but I found myself bored by the third victim. Thank goodness it is not childlike and there are no pets! I really wanted to like it, because I do like the other games in the series.
