The graphics are of reasonable detail and colorful. The music is western style, OK.
The puzzles are not hard although 1 was funky and the last one was an arcade type. There are some tricky Hops, with embedded puzzles. Some items to apply are not so apparent.
You have a map to help you go where you need to and to find artifacts.
There are 3 easter eggs to find, wanted posters, morphing western items and money to buy stuff for the saloon in extras. You have map indicators to get a heads ups. Items are readily found.
There are lots of custimizations and a good strategy guide. Nice extras from the easter eggs.
I recommend this game!

The Graphics are of good detail and colorful. The music was not very tantalizing.
I was not able to complete all puzzles without skipping or hints. There are some tricky Hops, one was real hard for finding all the objects. There are 2 real hard puzzles that I had to use the strategy guide on. 2 hard puzzles were funky.
You have a map to help you go where you need to and to find artifacts.
There are 2 easter eggs to find, Jugs located by device and Stained Glass pieces. You have map indicators that tell you when one of the items are at hand. Not hard to find but you have to pay attention in each scene.
There are lots of customizations and a good strategy guide. Nice extras from the easter eggs. There is an extra bonus object find game in the bonus area.
I recommend this game!

The game has the usual colorful cartoon graphics. It has a good variety of mood music, some good and some not so good. You can play it untimed, timed in easy or hard modes. It plays much like previous games minus some easter eggs. I finished all the levels in easy timed mode with many quite challenging.
On every level there is a puzzle easter egg, some very well hidden. No guides, just an online tutorial. You need to find all the easter eggs to complete the puzzle to open up the bonus game to that section. You can do this in untimed mode and then change the mode level to a timed mode, if you like, to replay the levels in that mode. You don't have to refind the easter eggs once you find them in any mode change or replay.
To build the clock castle you have to play all the levels in a timed mode and get 3 stars.
Plenty of levels to keep you busy for hours.
I recommend this game!

The Graphics are of high detail and colorful. The music was too mellow for me.
I was not able to complete all puzzles without skipping or hints. There are some tricky Hops, one was real hard for finding all the objects. There are 2 real hard puzzles that I had to use the strategy guide on. 1 hard puzzle was real funky.
You have a map to help you go where you need to and to find artifacts.
There are 3 easter eggs to find, feathers, statuettes, and medallions. You have indicators that tell you when one of the items are at hand. Not hard to find but you have to pay attention in each scene.
There are lots of customizations and a good strategy guide. Nice extras from the easter eggs.

The game has balanced, colorful cartoon graphics. It has a good variety of mood music. You can play it untimed, timed in easy or hard modes. I finished all the levels in easy timed mode with many quite challenging.
On some levels there is an owl easter egg, some very well hidden. Only the guides, as they become available, will tell you if there is an owl on the level. It won't alter the outcome of the game.
Plenty of levels to keep you busy for hours.
I recommend this game!

It has good detailed graphics and puzzles are not overwhelming if tricky. One puzzle was tedious so i skipped that one. Music is cinematic, not bad. Full play customizations a hand.
You have 3 easter eggs to find, Jodac's inventions which are morphing objects, coins to buy stuff in the laboratory in extras, and potion bottles. Indicators in the lower left hand section indicate what objects are up for finding and also an indicator on the map will also tell you there are objects to find.
I recommend this game!

A significant redone game format but the graphics remain colorful, well balanced and detailed as before.The only negative is they still have the same ol blazo enviro music, not bad just boring.
The game sessions are quite long on the levels past 10. You have various easter eggs to find that are listed in a left hand panel and some are well concealed, but they don't give you anything extra except bragging rights. You have locator maps but only after you have competed that level in the extra section. If you don't find them all you will have to start all over on the replay to get them all.
And on some levels there is this mysterious UFO doing strange things.
There are no game guides except for the extra levels. You have a built in tutorial which you can turn off.
You can play all levels in untimed mode, but for the last level in timed mode you must complete every other level in hard mode. I finished with every level in easy mode, which give you adequate time for almost every level, except for the last level which requires hard mode.
I recommend this game!
