This is more than just a painting game – explore incredible artwork and let your creative side shine as you complete these colorful paint-by-numbers puzzles.
This is one of six Art By Numbers I've bought and it is the least favourite of the bunch. So many little dots to fill in. It's tedious and you need to magnify in order to even see the grey spots to fill in. When you magnify you can't see your picture emerge which is the best part of colouring. I suggest you move on to a later version of this series.

Based on two minutes of demo. There was nothing about this game I liked. Right off the bat I had to use the fairly small magnifier to find the silhouetted objects. Way too much work for a game that should be relaxing and fun. No thanks.
This is one of my favourite series and I love little Elf. The game runs smoothly and the graphics although not as good as older games are pretty good. The collectibles are a bit hard to find but that's part of the fun. Also there IS a Strategy Guide after purchasing. It's in the menu rather than being available right in the game but it is there.

The overall game is very nice to play, good graphics, music OK. There are some card games I'd never played before (not a cards person) but I've learned some and some I just don't get. I've played Mahjong games for years and I have to say these are not much fun. You make just a few moves and it tells you no more moves, shuffle two more moves and again no more moves. Kind of frustrating.
I got this game with points so at least I didn't waste $$. I found the graphics blurry and too small rather than cleverly placed. When I got to the puzzles in between my eyes just said NO. I don't have the patience for clutter disguised as an HO anymore.
This is a fun M3 with some new tasks and all kinds of power ups. I play on relaxed but it's the first time I've ever had to slow down my game in order to fill the bar to achieve 3 stars. If you enjoy M3 you will probably like this one.
Played through most of the demo and quite enjoyed the easy, relaxing gameplay. You can play in relaxed or limited moves mode. Instead of the usual explosion noises you get a satisfying crunch sound when making matches.. I only gave it four stars because I won't pay CE prices for an M3 game unless there is a real adventure going on (ex. Cave Quest).
