It has been quite a while since I played one of these games and I was not watching the time or drifting away. Had a great time with the puzzles. I love the serial puzzles where you go through a series of different activities to get through it. Also like that objects get used within a short time and so far everything is logical. I hope it is a long game and that they are working on another one. My only negative-I do not like the voice of Agnes. It is a little hard to take.
I recommend this game!

After playing some of the intro I was looking forward to playing this game. I thought the fantasy of a world living on a turtle was different and fun. Alas...there was no seeing the world on the turtles or flying around on them. Just saving them. So I was sort of let down. Also, like a lot of current games the visuals were often VERY dark. Like there were totally black areas that held HO's. I am a little weary of playing blind. Frequently you held items for so long or took so long to find one that you just forgot where they belonged. I thought the game held a great deal of promise but fell short of what it could have been.
I recommend this game!

Where to start.....the graphics are not very good and VERY dark all the time. Many search items were in black areas and id not change when you ran the cursor over the area. The puzzles were ok. There was constant back and forth between scenes and many of them were between very distant scenes. The only reasonable way to get there was to use the hint button and move fast through its interface. The time between when you acquired an item and when you used it could be so long that you forgot all about where it went. Especially since I only play for a limited amount of time in the evening. I guess the story was ok. I sort of forgot about it while I was trying to navigate and remember and find things in the dark.
I don't recommend this game.
Embark on a daring rescue through time!

Based on the demo. I LOVE this. It is really fun. There are some new twists to some of the puzzles that make it interesting. There are so many things to do. I like the visuals. They suit the idea of the game as does the sound. Please more of these.
I recommend this game!

I don't understand why this game received such low scores initially. I found it intriguing and entertaining. I had played the first one and loved it so tried the second hoping it would be as good. It did not disappoint. It is dark in content but at least a change from the usual fairytale land.
I recommend this game!

I have not finished the game but have really enjoyed it so far. The graphics are different from some of the other games but just different but of great quality. Just looking at the scenes was enjoyable. Some of the characters made me laugh and made me think of people I know. I did have one issue of my own making. I put the matches on the ramp sideways so instead of going to the trap door they went outside the game frame and just zipped around. Could find no way to retrieve them so I started over and did not make the same error when I got to that point. The game appears to be simple but is actually rather complex and requires some observation, memory and thinking. I had to go to a walkthrough for the first time in ages.
I hope we will have more games like this. It is basically light hearted and fun.
I recommend this game!
In this remastered classic, reawaken in that mysterious castle, and solve perplexing puzzles to escape!

I played all the Awakening games when they came out and enjoyed them. They are all in Windows format and now I only have Mac OS on a M1 so I was delighted to find the 64 bit upgraded game. I hope they do all of them. I don't think the graphics are maybe as great as new games but the gameplay is excellent and story is better than some of the new games. Since I have forgotten the information from before these are all new again. Thanks Big Fish.
I recommend this game!
A breathtaking voyage through dreams, reality, and places in between!

When I started the trial I was not so sure. I HATED the repetitive music and turned off the sound. But the longer I played the music did get better and I came to love the game. Wish there were more like this. You never know what will be next. Sometimes just a screen with objects and you figure out what to do with them. Sometimes a screen with interactive puzzles which were hard but doable. Sometimes you do have to stop and think about what to do with some items or how to solve a problem I used the guide once. I was correct in my assumptions of how to proceed but just seemed to touch the item in the wrong location. The bonus game was also great fun. I missed one of the cards in the full game so was unable to play the third game. Do be mindful of finding all the cards. I may just play it again.
I recommend this game!

It has been a very long time since I enjoyed a game this much. My favorite in over a year at least. There was so much variety of people, situations, tasks ,locations. Surprises everywhere and a great deal of humor. Well done graphics and everything visible. Make sure to go through all the extras at the end not just the bonus game. There is a jigsaw puzzle and a treasure hunt among other things. The bonus chapter is hilarious. I have only one negative comment-the music became monotonous. I liked the music very much but it needed to be varied. Would love to see more games like this.
I recommend this game!

PLEASE MAKE MORE OF THESE!! Not only is this my favorite jigsaw game but one of my favorite overall games. There is a lot of variation to the size most of the time but sometimes you are just given a small puzzle to do a quick put together. I use the 220 pieces. That size is reasonable to see on my 27" monitor and takes a reasonable time to finish. One of the small puzzles I have never finished. It was timed which I did not know and then when I played again it turned some of the pieces upside down so 10 min was not nearly enough time. Will keep trying though. I love the surrealistic/futuristic visuals since you have no idea of what you are going to create in the puzzle-I never look at what the finished product will be or set a ghost background. Yes, one of the early puzzles was way too dark to keep looking at for over 15-20 minutes but the rest have been ok.
