The game is by one of my favorite game developers, ERS! And yes, it is a good game. The graphics are great, and you can lock your inventory, which is a huge plus for me. There is no map, that I saw, but I didn't really look as the game did not need one. There isn't much backtracking, and the items are not tough at ALL to figure out where they go. Okay, my one bad point. The game is hidden object and some are my favorite types where you have to place the hidden objects in the scene rather than find them, but the game is MOSTLY, and I do mean MOSTLY PUZZLES.! Literally every few minutes you will encounter one. Most are not bad so it shouldn't bother most, but it bothers me to have more puzzles or HOS than the GAME! Still even with that...the game was a good one, and worth the money. Happy gaming gamers!!
I recommend this game!

I enjoyed this one! The good points- An interactive map, that transports. Great graphics, Wonderful voices, Interactive HOS, ( the HOS are mostly interactive)
Bad points- Cannot lock your inventory, which drives me nuts!, The good graphics are a tap bit washed out looking... All in all the game has a great storyline, and will not be a disappointment! Liked it a lot. Happy gaming gamers!

I was completely surprised at how much I really liked this! By the cover ( which I realized you should never judge a book, or game by ) the game looked as if it had "old" and washed out graphics, and not my cup of tea. But since I have almost literally played EVERYTHING in the hidden object genre, I gave it a whirl. Thankfully I wasn't disappointed! The graphics were great, and the storyline very creepy and interesting! The puzzles and HOS were fun, and easy to complete. There was no map, and the hint is the kind that shows you all tasks, even ones you cannot do yet. But all in all it was a good game. Not my favorite, but its up there with my top 20.. Happy gaming gamers!!!
I recommend this game!

All in all this is an okay game. Trouble with it for me was the tons of backtracking, and because of this you may forget where to place some items. There is no map to help ease this.. The storyline Is ok, and so is the graphics. The HOS are clear, and not too many of them. Some of the HOS are interactive, and some are done where they show you the outline and you must find the item by this, which I like. The puzzles are as expected, and not difficult at all. There is nothing too blah about this, and def. nothing to make you say, " why did I buy this?" Its a nice game, but def. to buy in SE. Happy gaming gamers!!

I enjoyed this despite it being quite easy.... There was no map, but it was not needed as the entire game is spent in the same 15-16 locations, and they are in a small area. There is good graphics, and an alright storyline. The HOS are as expected, nothing bad or great. Some of the HOS are interactive, and the puzzles are not too difficult. The objects are very easy to place and you wont have a hard time trying to remember where something belonged, because, like I said....small locations. It was a fast game, but other than that, it was an 8/10. Happy gaming gamers!!

I love HOG'S as much as the next girl, but periodically, not one every two seconds! This game is seriously pretty much all HOS'S. You still move around and explore..., but the HOS are what your mostly going to find! If your into that, You will adore this game. If not.....its not for you. It was a pity too, because this game had okay graphics, and the storyline was actually interesting. Try the demo and get a feel for it. Trust me the hour is all you'll need to know whether or not you'll want to buy. Happy gaming gamers!!

This was an okay game, storyline, graphics were both good. The HOS were normal, nothing too messy or difficult. The puzzles were a bit easy, but enjoyable and different from most of the same old puzzles. I beat the game fairly quick, which was a bit disappointing. One thing that wasn't too great was the lack of a map, ( which I hardly use) in this case a map would have been very useful with all the back tracking. Though the game isn't too large of a area, so you don't have to go too far when you need to back track. You pretty much stay in the same 9-10 areas for the whole game. I liked the game, and it would be very good for a free game. Happy gaming gamers!!

I liked this game with its spooky feel, and dark locations. The storyline is good, having to find your friends daughter that is taken at a run down hotel that just happens to be the location of a murder of an entire family! The graphics are spot on, with a mixture of animation, and real people. There is no, and I mean NO Hidden Object Scenes!!! This game is strictly adventure and puzzles. Still, I enjoyed it. There is no map, and the hint is one that is not directive, only saying " nothing to do here". Still I think its a good game for everyone. Give this a try and see for yourself! Happy gaming gamers!!!!

The graphics in the game are up there with the best, and makes this game so much better. I really liked it. The HOS are well done, not too messy, and the puzzles are easy enough for all players. The storyline is interesting, and there is a map, and journal. All in all I give it an 8/10. Happy gaming gamers!!

This is a top quality game. The graphics are top notch, and so is the storyline. One of its greatest features, is the ability to customize your game play in the beginning. Yes it allows you casual, hard, and hardcore.. like most games do. But where this one differs is that is allows you a fourth option. Customize. This means you can choose to have no sparkles, except on HOS, and whether or not there is a map, or if that map has available tasks, and if hint and skip are disabled. I like this option, that way I can have the hint active in case I need it ( which you will not with the ease of the game ) but disable the sparkles, and black bar tips for a bit of a challenge. These options are changeable anytime in case you need to. The HOS are interactive, and the puzzles are so different from the norm. I really enjoyed the puzzles a lot. The game is very clever and I so recommend this one. Happy gaming gamers!!
