By same dev as the series of Alice in wonderland, unfortunately, it doesn't have the fun of the former. Just click & wonder what you're supposed to do. Repeat, repeat, repeat. Unbelievably annoying. I'd give it ZERO stars if possible & I love these types of games.
I don't recommend this game.

Pathfinders: Lost at Sea
Follow a mysterious signal to the middle of the ocean with Professor John Darby and explore an island that has magically appeared!
Spoils the fun (hello, that's MY reason to play) of it when no matter how careful you are, after 3 or 4 guesses, it takes your pointer away from you. Sorta like a slap in the face when you're learning something & you chose wrong even if you are NOT just blindly clicking away. Dev's need to dump this feature Very disappointing. Lots out there that are much better. .
I don't recommend this game.

Psych
Play as Shawn and Gus and solve the crime by using Shawn's heightened observational skills and Gus's eccentric expertise!
Got trial; was booooored w/in 10 minutes. Game makes no sense. Use my psychic ability & don't bother w/ this one. Too bad they don't offer ZERO stars. Truly awful.
I don't recommend this game.

The Fog
Don't be afraid of The Fog. Fear what lies within it!
Don't like to be timed, so I clicked on the non-timed, easy-does-it one, but "died" on one scene as I "ran out of oxygen." Give me a break. It's not a particularly compelling story line & mostly just junk pile HOs. However, the scenery is quite good, so I'll give it that.
Visually nice, but story line is the pits & what you're to do is abysmally unknown. Even in the casual mode, it was anything but casual. Not for me as I like fun stuff to relax with, not weird & confusing.
I don't recommend this game.

Whispered Secrets: The Story of Tideville
Uncover the mysterious past of a sleepy seaside village and find your missing son in Whispered Secrets: The Story of Tideville!
No sense of story, no logical progression, no clue what's going on &, fair warning: there are little creepy-crawly-spider-bugs darned near everywhere. Ugh. They distract & don't seem to have a function beyond that. If they did, I could handle them; otherwise, they're just there for little boys to giggle over. Extremely glad I tried the game first. Overall: UGH.
I don't recommend this game.

Cute story but back & forth & back & forth forever!
I can only play this game for an hour at a time before I want to toss it.....Graphics beautiful & cute(frog is a hoot); story muddled at best, but getting one thing. then another, first from one scene then back & forth is dizzying. Very frustrating to have such cute, well-drawn visuals & the path makes you want to cry.
