The game was fun but a little easy. The story was well put together and the cut scenes were fun to watch.
I recommend this game!

This game was developed with a good sense of humor and isn't dark at all.
The challenge is not difficult but is enough to be interesting.
My only complaint is that the music is silent too much.
I recommend this game!

It wasn't much challenge and the story about making people immortal by somehow fusing their souls into cars seems too much of a stretch. All of the people in the cars were unlikable and I wasn't at all interested in helping them.
The music was not intrusive and worked well for the game. The graphics were mediocre but I didn't much care for the trashed and neglected scenery. It just wasn't a place I wanted to go.
It isn't a bad game, but not a good one either. Some might like to burn some time with this for a few hours.
I recommend this game!

I had fun with this for the most part despite the lack of challenge. I did skip 2 puzzles because they were silly and I didn't want to waste my time.
The Mexican music was a nice change from the norm. The visuals were cartoonish but pleasing to look at.
The story was odd and didn't really draw me in but was sufficient to hold my interest.
I might play this again some time because I thought some of the game play was fun and interesting. There was quite a variety of HOS and some of the puzzles were creative.
I recommend this game!

I really love the match 3 game, but I didn't care for the fragmented object puzzles. The pieces were too small and difficult to see. I just wanted to get it over with so I could get back to Match 3.
I played on relaxed mode and really enjoyed it. I don't think I would have liked being timed because the game gets very challenging as it progresses.
The story of Hercules and the Greek gods was well done and entertaining.
The replay value is high and the game says that the second time around offers brand new challenges.
I am glad I bought it.
I recommend this game!

The game play was not too challenging but enough to keep you interested. HOS were easy.
The story was interesting but had some things that were not very believable, such as a swing for the children that hung over a deep ravine in which they could easily fall to their death.
The game was long and so was the bonus chapter. The bonus was not necessary but helped to explain the origins of the mask.
Voice overs and graphics were nice and the music was pleasant.
I thought it was worth buying the CE.
I recommend this game!

It was acceptable at all levels, but not fantastic. I did like the way they designed the HOS. They had a lot of interaction and some even contained some mini puzzles.
If you hate running all over the place, you will like this one. Every thing you find is used within 2 or 3 screens.
I recommend this game!

I really enjoyed this game. It wasn't too difficult and kept my interest all the way through.
The only thing I can say is that the second half was too dark and some objects were small and hard to see.
I recommend this game!

This game will not appeal to many due to the difficulty level. Those that don't like to scour the areas thoroughly will find themselves pressing the hint button for much of the game. The hint is very helpful so the strategy guide is not needed. I like to figure things out, but I felt there were a few cheap tricks in the game that were devious rather than clever. For example, there was a puzzle behind a door that you could not open until you found the object you needed for the puzzle. Since you didn't know what the puzzle was due to the closed door, how were you to know when you found the object you needed? There was no way to know that the door suddenly would open for you now. I felt that was a cheap way to get us to rely on the hint button. I was irritated for a long time after that.
The puzzles and HOS are too easy but there aren't very many of them. Most of the game consists of finding objects to place into something or another.
I did like the story, which was why I bought the game in the first place.
The music was completely inappropriate to the atmosphere of the story so I turned it off. There were some creepy ambient sounds in some of the scenes that were good. I thought the artwork was good throughout the game.
I couldn't finish the bonus chapter because I used the water vile on something before I put the fire out on another scene and it won't let me restart the bonus chapter, so I will have to play the game all over again as a different player. I thought that was another cheap shot to those of us that don't like to use the hint until the last resort.
I am not sorry I bought the game because it kept me occupied for many hours due to the fact that I like to take my time and figure things out for my self, but I don't think this game will appeal to the masses due to the difficulty level.I do recommend the game, but only for experts that are looking for a challenge to occupy an afternoon.
I recommend this game!

There is way too much waiting for the characters to do what they need to do and there are way too many interruptions from outside events.
The barn doesn't even look like a barn, but a cross between a house and a barn. It doesn't make any since to me.
I have to pass on this one, but I can see how some may like it if all you want to do is watch the game play itself most of the time.
I don't recommend this game.
