This was an enjoyable game and I hope they make more. The hidden object scenes have a purpose as you use each item to help you find another item in the list. I liked the story line, the graphics. The puzzles aren't difficult but it didn't detract from the game! A soild game.
I recommend this game!

This sequel was more fun for me than the original. There is a variety of hidden object scenes and the puzzles were at a good difficulty level. The length was good and although not necessary to enjoy the game, I enjoyed the bonus game. I recommend you give this a try.
I recommend this game!

This game is mediocre at best. The story isn't that compelling. The puzzles are just ok. I disliked the HO scenes were you have to line images up until they overlap. The bonus story of how the shadows began is completely unnecessary and uninteresting. This game was not remotely scary. Stick to the SE if you decide to buy.
I don't recommend this game.

This game has fantastic graphics, a good story and good puzzles. I'm glad I didn't listen to the negative reviews. The bonus game isn't necessary to enjoy the game but it's fun.

Wow! This is an amazing adventure game. No Hos. No dialogue. This brought me back to the days of Myst. The puzzles take thought and a few are very challenging but there is a hint button. Love the open exploring. Wish we there were more games like this on BigFish!
I recommend this game!

I loved this game. It is story driven and not just a usual hidden object game. There are hidden object scenes but they are silhouettes and instead of just searching for an item you must use the silhouetted item to find other items in the scene. I so prefer that to just random items to find in a scene. The story is good and the length of the game was also good. The puzzles were easy but it didn't detract from the fun of the game.
I recommend this game!

I really enjoyed the creepy tones of this game and it reminded me of the original Phantasmat that started the series. I recommend this game but the Standard edition is a better buy as the bonus game is not necessary and seemed short. Overall I really liked this game and found myself to be spooked a little by it.
I recommend this game!

I rarely review games but had to share this game has the creepy factor and actually made me jump a few times. The HO scenes are not hard and the puzzles are not overly challenging but I loved the story line, the creepy little girl and the dream world. The only negative for me was the main characters voice which I didn't care for and the cupboard in the bonus game that I had a hard time propping up. The Collector's edition isn't necessary as the game wraps up in the main game but I still enjoyed it. Give this one a try.
I recommend this game!

I enjoyed this game in the beginning but quickly lost interest as the story seemed rushed and several times I couldn't figure out what to do next. It didn't seem to flow logically. I really didn't care what happened half way into the game and I didn't really understand what happened by the end of the game. The bonus game is unnecessary to complete the main game and I thought the ending to the bonus story was underwhelming and abrupt.
I don't recommend this game.
