I have played many HOS games, and this one was one I disliked the most. First, there was no map, no logical progression of paths or locales that you could map yourself, so I had no idea where I saw certain items nor how to get back to them. So i could not find the items that I had to leave and come back for when it made sense or I had the other correct items. The puzzles were illogical at times. I don't know how they expected their audience to put together some of this stuff. Plus, much of the stuff I did figure out myself, I had to put the item within a five pixel area of where it was supposed to go. So if I missed the very exact spot, it appeared the item was not supposed to go there, or be added or whatever. VERY FRUSTRATING. I ended up not really caring about the storyline. Towards the end of the "Main Game", I was using a lot of hints just to get it over with. When the game said I finished the main game, I was like "whaaaaa?" because it didn't seem like the end. "Luckily" for me, I got the CE, so I had the Bonus Play. But once I had ridiculous issues trying to solve the first puzzle (the lack of control and having to be so exact)....well I uninstalled it. I couldn't take another minute, hour, whatever of the frustration level. LOL. The graphics were excellent. I liked the lamp add on, it started out good, but the disjointed path through the game, the lack of a map, being lost and having frustrating gameplay was just not for me.
I don't recommend this game.
