This game adds more challenge then just beating chance and luck. Quick movements, The crime solving part is really a secondary aspect that is no challenge, however just try to get all the trophy's. So take this Solitaire game on, I am just playing it again. Still just a bit maddening like it was when it first arrived.

Spend some time on the Fairway and take on challenging courses! Try to stay under par in this amazing Card game!

What can I say, if you like solitaire this should be in your collection. This is the second step the first being Fairway Solitaire. Also a good game. So go ahead and take on the gopher, you never can tell were he/she is going to be. Spend $ wisely. There is some Gopher whacking so maybe this game is for 7 and up.
I recommend this game!

This is a challenging game for me that is. I have played it twice now. Many fun things to do which earn you points, going on the right order is also a way to get the most points. This game can be played several different ways so point totals can vary. I just finished with 336 points. The ending can get a bit stressful for an old guy like me. (51) but this is just good fun. This is one for your collection, so to speak. If I am not mistaken this game is done by Totem? They have some top game creators there. If you are new to these types of games then this is going to be a bit tough.
I recommend this game!

Just played this one again, Darn thing still gets me thinking. Yes I did get mad at it once, ok twice. But thats the fun of these types of games. Clearly not as hard a "Scratches" but not many are. This is a game for older teens and up to my age. Some might find this a bit scary. You have to work with game setup options to get the camera movement to your liking. this is a hard game to master. Well, happy frustration to you, not going to solve this one in one night. I would have given it higher fun rating but it made me angry a few times. So this is how I get back at the game.
I recommend this game!

This is a mid-level game. I would not purchase the collectors addition. Still looking for the additional game play. As for the guide. just use a walk through if need be. Best for ages 10 to 14.

This is for children just starting these types of games. there is not a lot of challenge. Clearly I would not recommend the collectors additon. Better to spend the money on a game for their home game system.

Just play the free hour and well you won't even get through the first 15 min before trashing this deal.
I don't recommend this game.

Fun factor of ok, because of the difficulty, resulting in frustration, and final need to use the walkthrough. I would have liked to hear final thoughts from the main character. I changed my skill level to intermediate after playing this Maze or requirements, and tracking where you have been and where you must go. A real blast.
I recommend this game!

This is a fun game that takes some time to complete, unlike some of the new games I have played.
