Loved everything about this game. Storyline took me all the way back to the disturbing games in this series which I've loved since before I discovered Bigfish! High quality all around and the best game play of any series I play (and I play a lot...)
Play this game. Thank me later.
I recommend this game!

As usual, Mad Head Games provides stunning graphics and excellent game play. The storyline was intriguing and fun... The only drawback - and the reason I didn't give it four stars, is because it was such a short game. I finished the main game in less than two hrs. and the bonus game in the CE edition in just over an hour... Glad I got it on sale! LOVE Mad Head Games, wish they were longer!

If I were describing this game, it would sound like it had all the bells and whistles I love... except it doesn't. Got bored/frustrated before I finished the demo. Choppy graphics, story line way too typical, games/HOPs not really challenging... Sorry... not for me ...

Played the demo. Love the 2-D graphics/animation. Charming characters in a quirky, whimsical world make this a truly interesting and engaging point and click adventure game. Very different from most of the games I play. A refreshing change for me and a really different look. Love it!
I recommend this game!

Every aspect of this game, from storyline to graphics quality, animation and voice overs to game play and quality of HOPs was outstanding. I've enjoyed every game in this series but this one tops them all. I play w/ my husband who usually just watches and keeps me company. Time and time again in this game, however, he had to take over because the game play was so exciting and challenging he couldn't resist. Mad Head has beaten out BoomZap as my favorite developer (w/ Eipix and ERS now running neck and neck in second place...) Kudos. I recommend this game to anyone who loves a great story and a great game. This one has it all!
I recommend this game!

What a joy to find another in the Awakening series! This prequel is very well done - I bought it straight off the bat and played it straight through wo/ stopping. Beautiful graphic as usual from BoomZap, excellent story line and fun game play throughout. Love the entire series and was so sad to feel it was over despite the satisfying resolution in the last game. I love this so much for being an unexpected treat in addition to its fine story, game play, graphics and, as always, perfectly suited music. Kudos to Boom Zap.
I recommend this game!

I played the entire CE and bonus round in one day. Completely immersive! Only stopped to go back and read the original fairy tale (Hans Christian Andersen's "The Wild Swans") again. SUCH a good story. Great game play, challenging wo/ being distracting. Beautiful graphics, animation - especially lip synching w/ voice overs - is outstanding. Cannot say enough good things about this game!
I recommend this game!

Based on the demo alone, this is the best Eipix game ever - and that's saying a lot! I love the team at Eipix and adore all their work... I never miss their "Making of..." segments - such a treat!
From the opening to the "Thanks for playing the demo" it's superior quality, outstanding gameplay, beautiful graphics and a rousing story full of adventure and excitement! I have been playing Hidden Expeditions since Amazon. It's a favorite series and this is beyond doubt the best game ever.
I recommend this game!

This is one of the best series of games ever. I am so saddened to know this is the last adventure for Queen Sophia since I've followed her from the Dreamless Castle all the way here... Did not like Awakenings Kingdom game and was seriously disappointed in Awakening series taking that direction, but this makes up for all that and then some!!!
Beautiful graphics, excellent, interesting new game play. Definitely the best in the series.
Now that this is over, all I can say is: Bring on BOTANICA 2!
I recommend this game!

This is one of the most fun and funny games I've ever played. Haven't even gotten half way through and just love everything about it. Visuals are excellently rendered, story is a hoot and at least three hollers and the game play is outstanding, challenging and really well blended into the story. Love those froggies!!!
I recommend this game!
