YOU SAY: 'OH NO, NOT YET ANOTHER TRAVEL/TRIP GAME'. I SAY 'THIS IS DIFFERENT AND IT HAS LOTS OF THINGS TO OFFER'.

First of all, Big Fish offers many games with similar names: Adventure Trip, Road Trip, and Adventure Road Trip. I never played Road Trip USA so I have nothing to compare this game to. But I quickly discovered ONE thing: I LOVE THIS GAME. It has A LOT to offer. Here are just a few things that it offers:
1. Choice of cat avatars: Bear, Ninja, and Max.
2. The graphics are good. Colors are not as bright as I'd like.
3. You get your choice of player mode: Tourist, Traveler, Explorer, and Adventurer.
4. You have robots, cats, and shields to find in each scene and sometimes they were hard to find.

There are other things this game provides, but I will let others share them with you.
This game will entertain you for hours. Try the demo and see for yourself.
I recommend this game!

After playing the 60 min. demo:
1. Nice music that matches the theme of the game.
2. Hidden objects, sometimes hard to find. Without the magnifier, it would probably take a little time of find some of the objects.
3. You need two stars to open up a new, locked area. You get only one star when you complete a location.

Not sure how long the game is, but it seemed to offer many locations for which to choose from.
I recommend this game!

A very easy HOS game for those of you who doesn't want a challenge. Great for beginners, but also something to play to pass the time. There are 3 hearts and 3 GPS symbols that are so easy to find that they almost jump out at you. There is also a magnifying glass that I was glad to have because without it, it was sometimes hard to find certain objects that tended to 'blend' together. One thing I did enjoy, however, were the games. They were easy to play and offered a nice variety.
Still, a nice easy game to play if you don't 'want to think'.
I recommend this game!

This is my review after playing the demo for an hour:
1. EXCELLENT voice overs that fit the characters perfectly.
2. GREAT story line that keeps your interest (I won't go into any detail as there are several other reviewers who do a fantastic job of describing the Big Fish games/stories in great detail).
3. EXQUISITE colors and graphics. For me to even be interested in a game, it has to have lots of color, not the 'dark' games that offer nothing more than darkness.
4. FUN mini-games that are simple, yet somewhat challenging.
5. A variety of HOS that are slightly different than what I've seen before.

I highly recommend at least trying out the demo first. You won't be disappointed.

This is my first Fatal Evidence game (will check out the other games), but as soon as I saw the short video showing what the game was about, I quickly downloaded the demo. Before I was even half way through it, I purchased the game and I have been happy with the game thus far.
LIKES/DISLIKES:
1. Great voice overs, although the lip movement doesn't quite match what the person is saying (some of the time). The characters 'glide' across the room which makes the story somewhat unbelievable, (as they are NOT ghosts, LOL).
2. Graphics are colorful and clear, but in some places the graphics are slightly blurry.
3. Great story line that keeps your interest. There will be other reviewers who will give a great, detailed description of the game, so I won't do it here.
4. The music, sound of the various voices, and the background nuances, makes this a great mystery. All in all, it will keep you guessing until the end.

I have every game from the Vacation Adventures/Park Rangers & the Cruise Director series. Although they all seem the same in retrospect, each one has its own unique quality that attract so many gamers. Park Rangers #10 doesn't disappoint. Here are my likes/dislikes:
My likes:
1. Mini games: they are always fun as they allow each of us a few minutes of 'alone time' that is much needed, now more than ever.
2. Graphics are clear and crisp
3. HOS: easy to find, but its fun nonetheless
2. Graphics are clear and crisp

My dislikes:
1. The characters in each scene (especially the family) are too 'fake looking' that I wish more time was taken to make them seem more 'realistic'.
2. The music is the same in all of the series. We need more of a variety in the games that we play, especially if they are in a series.
3. Game too short

Although this review sounds negative, but as soon as I see a NEW game in the series, I jump at the chance to own one.
I recommend this game!

I have a few Christmas games that I usually buy, but I either only play a few times, or I forget that I still have them. This time I FINALLY finished the game in its entirety, and I'm happy that I did. It is filled with Christmas cheer after Christmas is 'saved' by you. The graphics are clear, colorful, and crisp to the eye, and the music is also perfect.
I recommend this game to those of you who enjoy the Christmas holiday and the good spirit that the holidays give to us all.
I recommend this game!

I came across Tales of Lagoona 2: Peril at Poseidon Park by accident. But I'm happy that I did. I first have to say that this game is VERY addictive. I have been playing it ALMOST non-stop.
My LIKES:
1. Great storyline that keeps your attention from beginning to end.
2. The graphics were clear and crisp. A very colorful game.
3. A standard version that gives you the extras like a collector's version.

I bought this game without even trying the demo because I had recently purchased FAMILY VACATION 2: ROAD TRIP and really enjoyed it. So I was unpleasantly surprised to find Family Vacation: California not resembling the second game at all. This game was chock full of HOS after HOS (which I normally enjoy) but it got tiresome very quickly.
I definitely do NOT recommend this game and am only sorry that I wasted my money.
I don't recommend this game.

I use to love the old fashion paint-by-number sets that were around when I was a kid (age withheld on purpose, lol). So when I saw the title of this game, I had to check it out.
My LIKES:
1. A good variety of pictures to choose from
2. A nice palette of colors
2. A nice palette of colors
My only DISLIKE:
When an area was chosen in which to place the paintbrush, and paint, it oftentimes took SEVERAL attempts to get the area painted. The painting of most areas was like this. To paint a picture, any picture, should go smoothly.
Overall, I recommend this game.
