This could have been any hidden object game. The only connection to the old MCF games was the MCF badge!
The storyline didn't make any sense - it doesn't feel like a MCF game. The last time I played a game that felt like a MCF game was 5 years ago with 'Escape from Ravenhearst' - since then, the games have lost their uniqueness and quirkiness. I think I'll just go back and replay the golden oldies
I don't recommend this game.
Can you find the key to Ravenhearst's resurrection?

I played through the full version and I have to say, it's lost it's originality. Gone are the MCF games with creepy scares and sounds. It felt like I was playing just another run of the mill HOG. Also, as it's a Ravenhearst game, there are no 'live' actors which is a shame as it added to the overall creepiness of the game. We have lost the overall magic after 'Escape From Ravenhearst', 'the 13th skull' and 'Dire Grove'. The MCF series has gone downhill in my opinion
I don't recommend this game.

I've played every single one of the MCF games over the years....last year and this year I've found disappointing. The MCF series seems to have lost it's 'quirkiness' and 'sense of humour' (remember squeezing spots and cutting toe nails in previous versions). The graphics are good ...but, I miss the 'fun' puzzles and the real life actors that appeared in previous versions. It just seems to be a run of the mill hidden object game.....going backwards and forwards. I found the puzzles pointless. We've lost the gore/creepiness and strange characters that were a big part of the MCF series
I don't recommend this game.

Snowy's Lunch Rush was first released in 2007 ie. a few years ago....but, now it's HD????. It is fun - the graphics are brilliant and as I recall , the game gets extremely hard! Yes, it is just like Diner Dash but, it's cute!
I recommend this game!

This game could have been so much better. You literally have to fill a certain amount of cases before the time runs out. I played up to level 5 of Berlin before I gave up. You have to remember 7 items to be packed into suitcases (different characters appear that each have different items to be packed) However, the items are so small you cannot really see what you have so far in the suitcases (unless my specs need replacing). I would have given this half a star if the option had been available
I don't recommend this game.

Finished the game in 3 hours. Hidden object scenes too small ....far too many cut scenes. Not really challenging....no mind bending puzzles - just endless matching of photo's.....Come on guys you've done better than this in the past. This is worse than the 13th Skull .......very very disappointed :(
I don't recommend this game.

I've played this game 3 times from beginning to end - I was a little put off by the general reviews that this game got. Several people said it's hard as there are no staff behind the counter - they didn't play for very long then as you end up with baristas, waitresses, musicians and a courier (for phone orders) and then there's you yourself playing along as another member of staff. I really enjoyed this game although I thought that the items that you need to use should be larger - it gets frustrating when other members of staff are in front of the ice machine and they will not move out of the way. As it becomes frantic later in the game, I stuck to either serving people at the counter or serving food to other clients and the other members of staff got the complicated drinks. I thought the graphics were top rate !. Other people have criticised the thought bubbles with the orders in above people's heads. I set myself a challenge to click on the customer once and remember what they ordered - it adds to the fun ! As a note, I think people should only be able to review games that have played for a full hour as they cannot give an accurate description of the game !x
I recommend this game!

If you loved 'Artists Colony' or 'virtual villagers' - this game is for you. It's so enjoyable to play but i restarted it about 3 or 4 times (I got it from another gaming website last week) - i made the mistake of not gathering enough food. Unlike virtual villagers, you don't have deaths and births - as soon as you get enough money you can 'buy' apprentices to work in the forge, laboratory, kitchen , and other places and also get them to gather food and chop down trees. You start with 5 apprentices - each of them loves to do different jobs - if you stick them in a job they hate, they get 'ill' quickly and have to go to the hospital to eat healing herbs. I'm nearing the end of the game and it has taken me days to do this with about 5 hours gameplay per day. I now have 40 workers and have built and enhanced most buildings. The only thing I really have left to do is clear the gold mine ....It's such an enjoyable game - but I would have preferred the lab research to be a bit swifter (to enable upgrades for skills in nature, sailing, agriculture, archaeology, construction and building). There is a mini game included which is a type of angry birds game - but you kill pirates instead!
I recommend this game!

I was hoping this game would be similar to 'Landgrabbers'....however, I was highly disappointed. The premise of the game is to build towers to defend your castle ....that's it !! Then wait for enemies to attack. I was bored after 5 minutes x
I don't recommend this game.
