I'd have rated this higher but for the puzzles almost all gave the option to skip rather than a hint button. They're hard on my old eyes but I'd rather finish than skip them.
I recommend this game!

It was more difficult to locate everything but I like a challenge. The scenes were re-hashed but no biggie. I wish you'd include a magnifier for us oldies! I play it several times during the year, buy it the minute it shows up. Keep them coming!
I recommend this game!
Find objects hidden across scenes set in China, Japan, Greece, and many other incredible places!

Because I'm old and don't see good, as much as I love these games, no more. You should include a magnifier so I don't strain my eyes so badly. They are challenging, and I love searching for the collectibles. I would recommend it but say they are hard to see.
I recommend this game!

This was so bad it was insulting. Not even as a freebie.
I don't recommend this game.

Waited YEARS for the 5th to come out, wrote devs, begged. I've played the first four about a hundred times each. Love this series more than any! BUT this one is a little tight for time, a few changes I like. That said, the hidden are SO well hidden I spent half an hour searching for the third on two levels. But I will persevere. Definitely a challenge.
I recommend this game!

Enjoyable game, but a CE with no guide?

Loving the game but discouraged with the difficulty of finding cups each level. Played level 10 at least 20 times, never did find it. I love TM and this would be great except for the cups. Good story line and a challenge, which I like.
I recommend this game!
Get on board the spaceship with Hercules, explore distant planets, find extraterrestrial life and save the galaxy from a dangerous monster!

The guide is a big disappointment. But puzzle pieces easy to find. Just not up to the last one. Still a good game, challenging,...……….just more meh!

Sorry I grabbed this......very difficult and no halfway. Graphics were not great, and timing on difficult was tight. By the fourth level I'm down to one star. NOT fun.
I don't recommend this game.

I love TM games, BUT. When I did the fourth level I realized this is way out of my league, so switched to easy? Oh, yeah? By tenth level lucky to finish, never mind stars and caches. So I figured I'd be okay and switched to relax where it froze at " Build a hen house". Into the scrap heap. Maybe great for superstars but us average joes, not.
I don't recommend this game.

Might have been half decent but NO strategy guide? You have to go to the dev's web site? Should have saved my $$$$
I don't recommend this game.
