This game is part of the "awakening" series and all these games are fun and enjoyable.
The fantasy story is interesting, it gets you to care for the characters in this game it kept me hooked to this game, this and the excellent gameplay. Graphics are well made, music contributes to the magical atmosphere hint system is great, I highly recommend this game and others of this series.

I played the demo, First topic to mention because it is a big part of the game, and the unnecessary one as well, the dialog...who cares for what they're trying to convey. Don't want to be rude but seriously say something interesting...pictures of real people that are smiling, which is nice, I like when people are happy and show their teeth, dialog not spoken but irritatingly written, the conversations are shallow, I skipped them all I didn't really care for the missing recipe I am here to find hidden objects which leads me to the next issue: why for crying out real loud there's this brick wall as a frame to the scenes??? Pink Floyd influenced? They were in favor of tearing it down anyway.... Graphics are OK but the wall frame makes the scene look way smaller than it could be if the wall wouldn't be there. My laptop is not to big and both the list of items and the items hidden were to small for my patience. Music is good, I liked the ambient sounds. I recommend to try the demo and see if you feel comfortable with the graphics concept, and yes, in this game size matters! If you have a big computer monitor you get to find the items easier.
I recommend this game!

Stay away from it if possible. I played like 10 minutes of the demo and was wondering why someone even bothered creating this game. I uninstalled this game never to look back. The graphics are low quality, to find the items is hard not because eye sight issues but because they are small and not well defined some of them even hide in the bottom of the screen I just clicked away hoping I hit something. The hint takes forever to recharge and the plot wasn't all that impressive. This game looks very amateurish and nothing in it made me wanna own this game.
I don't recommend this game.

I have to start by mentioning the music part of the game, it is a repetitive fast paced, I found myself tapping to it with my fingers only to realize time flies when you don't pay attention and this game has a time restrictions...gotta complete the scene in timely manner in order to receive shiny stars...
The objects in the scene just lay there, all yawning, waiting for you to pick them up from the police lineup, graphics are ok but not breath taking. you get to play the same scene in different time something that has to do with this special laser looking gun and a plot that didn't speak to me or was all that exciting. Hint recharges quickly, bunch of HO scenes.
have no expectations it won't bug to much. I played the demo, maybe will buy if on daily deal.

The most impressive part of this game was the ring sound that you hear every time you click on object you find in the HO scene. I started to find them fast so I can hear the ring sounds creating music, it's kinda fun. The items themselves are sometimes hard to find, graphically I would expect more than what they created in here. The story is nothing new, yet again, a young girl is in distress. Can't wait for game makers to stop using this motif, it's to obvious now, move on guys, find other ideas.
So you have HO scenes and items you find in order to interact with the surrounding. Minigames not hard, you have the skip button if find them to boring. The audio was good, the help options are OK, they are really trying to get the player moving on in the game.
I played the demo, will consider giving up on one chocolate bar and buy the game instead when on sale.

Apparently these wizards among other things need to locate items throughout the academy, you're one of them by the way, a wizard! Harry Potter anyone?...and if you can't find an object a fairy that is in a cage, don't know why they're in a cage, seems a bit harsh...manages to get out and show you where the object is, and that's folks the magical hint option. You also can try and locate matches throughout the scenes in order to help keeping the flame lit. Matches spread in the scene, can you say "danger in da house"?
The graphics are good old days kinda graphics, we get better quality nowadays but these ones are few years old and I think are good enough considering.
The game is easy to figure out and easy to play, nothing in it is to challenging or difficult, just find the items and be happy!
I love the music, it fits the game atmosphere, it even qualifies as cute! come think about it, the whole game is puppy-cute.
I own this game and its sequel, and come back to play both for nostalgic purposes.

I enjoyed playing the game though its atmosphere was a bit disturbing to my sensitive soul. It did manage to get to me, I think they did a good job trying to scare people with this story. there is a tendency to show girls in distress in games lately, don't know why they can't find a better direction, I got hooked not because the idea of saving this girl but because I love playing hidden objects games. Remember, It is not based on a true story so it people just play and have fun.
The graphics are OK, the music is dark just like the whole concept of this game, hidden objects and puzzles kept me hooked to this game, I was impressed I went ahead and got the sequel as well.

From the company that brought you amazing adventures series here's another game that for those who got hooked to the previous ones probably would like to have this one in their inventory as well. For those who played previous games in this series, we all know it's the same concept, same quality same good old playtime. For those who haven't played any game of this series, forget the story, 'cause there ain't one. The developers of this game will educate you with facts about your adventure but I prefer to just play so I skip the history lesson I won't remember it anyway I feel smart as it is. I am all about hidden objects and this game has bunch of those scenes. The graphics are well made, clear and not so difficult to find, there's a hint option, you get more points if you go through the game without using it though. You gotta find also extra objects in this game there are 2 crowns each scene. No need for a long school day for this one, It's all plain and simple to understand how to play this game. The music is repetitive but not really annoying even soothing a bit, I almost fell asleep to it! I recommend to download the demo and see how it feels. If you're into finding those illusive objects in a clutter environment high probability you will want to own this game.
I recommend this game!

I kinda under the influence of a different game of same company that looks alike and I really loved the other one so I like this one to start with. This game is all about finding objects in a cluttered scene. nothing else really. The instructions are easy to follow, the graphics are OK, I myself like them. Music is OK, i didn't mind it, wasn't annoying like sometimes they have in games. I played the demo and have intentions to purchase this game.
I recommend this game!

You get lots of scenes to explore and locate hidden objects, and once you're done collecting the extra items you get unlimited seek and find. Now, that is an excellent way to go back to play the game as many times as you wish, and I do, it is a hidden objects game after all and the more the merrier! one of the other reasons I do get back playing this game(actually all of the mystery P.I. game series) is the music, it is so relaxing I find myself falling asleep listening to it late at night, works OK if you don't have soothing sounds of sea waves available where you at...
You get instructions of how to play, it's in the main menu though it is an easy to figure out kind of a game. The graphics are good and well drawn, mini games are simple and easy enough but at the same time entertaining. C'mon! who doesn't like to play match 3 games! You also get to collect extra items, like any mystery P.I. game. The hint option is available just waiting for you to use it, you have timed and relaxed modes to choose from. You get points for the objects you find, but seriously it's not about the points it's the enjoying the view, it's the finding these hidden objects that count and this game delivers it generously.
