~ Beautiful seaside graphics during regular gameplay but during cut scenes....not so much.
~ 3 modes with option to turn off interactive map
~ Challenging HOS(silhouettes with interaction required) and puzzles (that annoyed me but other people will enjoy them)
~ Journal and Instant teleport map with helpful symbol key
I recommend this game!
A long-forgotten artifact has just resurfaced, and the race to claim it will cause a devastating war. The only thing strong enough to stop it is one woman’s promise to the man she loves.

I definitely think somebody was on something when they were developing this.........
This game will keep you very busy and give you a few laughs if you can suspend your belief in reality for awhile.
The journal has an auto update feature for ojective assignment and completion. There is also a very helpful instant teleport map that shows where the tasks,HOS and puzzles have appeared. This will be useful once you start slipping into insanity.
Oh and don't show this game to your pet dogs. They'll start attacking tree stumps. We can't have that.
I recommend this game!
The mysterious League of Light has chosen you as their newest member. Are you up to your first assignment?

This was a very interesting game with many things to uncover and experience. The League of Light has called upon you, their newest member, to help the citizens of Sorrow's Well. Someone or something is skulking around the distant castle, possibly trying to resurrect the evil that once dwelled there.
~ Plenty of Achievements, bestiary scrolls, owls and other hidden items to find and collect
~ Castle Map keeps track of where you are, where you need to be, where you've been and if you've uncovered the hidden owls
~ Awesome graphics & Sounds
~ Cut scenes with back story and bestiary scrolls with useful information

You're traveling to Mexico to get the blessing of your father-in-law-to-be. But apparently your lovely fiancee hasn't seen this guy in awhile and oh wait...it's the beginning of November, which is the time of the Dia de los Muertos celebration. Uh oh.
The book is alive! The trains fly! and oh yea...you're probably going to have to join the undead to save your fiancee who's been kidnapped by a freaky phantom.

I enjoy using these games to give my students Geography and Culture credit. The facts are interesting and the local scenery and objects add to the fun & enriching gameplay experience. There is the option to compete against other players ( or yourself even) for time remaining and points earned scores. A puzzle is added every few turns to break up the HOS.
I prefer HOPA games so I wouldn't purchase these for myself but they're highly recommended for teachers.
I recommend this game!

+ Challenging with many locations, tons of objects to find and tasks to complete. Lots of puzzles and HOS that deal with chain reactions.
+ Journal with replay cutscene feature & Map with notes and tasks list for each area.
+ Hint button has a digital countdown timer
- Annoying voice-overs
- Storyline is a bit hard to follow
- The Great Kukulkan has an attitude problem and for an ancient dude who isn't from around here, he sure speaks pretty good English
