Loving this game. Story is intriguing, games are super fun and different, only problem may be the things hidden in the dark. But in defense of the game's story it all makes sense, to make you investigate further.
Art work is totally breathtaking. I found myself just pausing to enjoy the city scenes.
I'd recommend this game in a heartbeat.
I recommend this game!

I like HOG, but tire of the hidden object scenes that take over the story...here you keep moving with easy access to past scenes. Only fault is once a puzzle piece is added all the beautiful artwork ...disappears. I would like to have enjoyed it a bit more. Good story line...a broken heartened lover willing to pay anything for his lost love. Oh don't we women love it.
I recommend this game!

The CE end chapter does not match the quality of the regular game. Don't recommend it as the art work is nothing like the first released game.
Do BUY this game, if you love great art work, fun characters and a good story, oh games where fun too. In the end I felt bad for the villain.
Just wish the CE ending had the same quality of graphics as the original, though I did have fun with the games.
I recommend this game!

Loved this game. Had a few things I did not like, but over all I was surprised at it's length and number of scene changes. It is worth more than U pay just due to the art work. Enjoy the final chapter it is outstanding.
I recommend this game!

Story lacked--scary, it was annoying. Had to use hints continually as hidden objects where to small to see. I had no fun with this game at all. Thought it was cheaply produced, just popped into HOG scenes and then the silly job of searching the same scene for obscure items.
I don't recommend this game.
