Check monsters into your hotel and keep them happy!
As another reviewer stated, the mouse will not work with newer computers. Like them, I was able to use my touch screen, but lost interest quickly because I prefer to use my mouse. If you have an older computer (this game is from 2011) or don't mind using touch screens, it's a cute and challenging game that will keep you on your toes!
An ancient evil awakened in the kingdom. Travel through the four valleys on a strategy adventure and

Help a cursed princess and save the kingdom!
Having played the first 2 in this series, I was delighted at the improvements in this one. The best yet was the resources regenerated this time around (animals, mushrooms, eggs, etc.). I also liked being able to reach my campsite at the click of a button and having my potions and cooking and blacksmith all in one area. You were able to make 7 different meals and potions and weapons this time! This was a big world and a lot of people to help, so settle in for nice, long game. Once you've "beaten" the game, there are additional requests for help from a few people that you can do. There are also 57 achievements and I was able to complete all those quite easily.
Special note to the older or visually impaired folks: Use reading glasses for this one! The items hidden around the kingdom will still be hard to see. You don't want to miss any of those mushrooms!
I recommend this game!

Your husband is missing and you're being sent letters from the great beyond!
Note: This is part one of two, it won't conclude until the second game.

I rather enjoyed this considering it was released in 2010. I do highly suggest some strong reading glasses if you're up in years like me, because the items are pretty small. I enjoyed the unusual story line and the stamp collection rewards. The camera, thermometer and palette were also fun helpers. You can play until the end and if you've found enough stamps (50), you can play beat the clock in timed mode for more rewards.
I recommend this game!

This is a much better sequel to Running Sheep, in my opinion. No one-eyed monster cubes chasing you, just wolves and gopher holes on a farm. I was able to make it to level 96 before it became to difficult to move on. Unlike the first game, you don't have to have a perfect score to continue on.
My advice...don't bother with perfection. You can ignore the coins and even let all but one of your sheep die and still move on with a green ribbon. You get very few arrows and very little time, so it's best to just get a single sheep in the house and move on.

Like other reviewers, I was excited for a game similar to Sheep's Quest, but then disappointed that this one was so much harder to play.
That being said...
I thought it was fun! It definitely required some deep thought. There are timers, lasers, robots, and eventually a giant cube creature that I just couldn't get past no matter how hard I tried. I was able to play the first 20 levels with 3 stars after I developed a strategy. With the lasers, it's all in the timing. With the robots, you just have to block them in a corner.
Unfortunately, as I said, there was this giant laser cube chasing me that I just couldn't get past. I'm kind of bummed I'll never know what the last 20 levels were like.
The kingdom is under threat from pirates! Sail to the farthest islands to save your sister and become hero of the kingdom.

Your sister has been kidnapped by pirates! Help the villagers along the way to finding her and you will be richly rewarded!
I love how busy these games keep you! Like the first in the series, there are endless tasks to do on the way to your ultimate goal. Even after the game ended, there were still additional tasks to do (be sure to visit the fishing village and the lonely island as soon as you've completed the game).
My only complaint would be how tiny and well-hidden the items are. I recommend you take breaks in-between to avoid eye strain. There were a few items I simply couldn't find and had to refer to old forums for help. I was able to complete the majority of achievements.
I recommend this game!

You and a couple of your friends are trapped in one another's scary story! See how all 3 tales unfold and who will survive!
Having played the entire Maze series, I knew what to expect and was not disappointed! I enjoyed the puzzles, the hidden object scenes, and the 3 separate stories and characters. The ending was a bit dark, but this is what we've come to expect (and enjoy) from these games. It's been 3 years now and I would love to see the next chapter in the Maze series!
I recommend this game!

Hard to believe this was released back in 2009, because it definitely holds up in 2023!
This is the sequel, of course, to Heroes of Hellas. In this one, you're once again stringing together gems with cool effects and heroes helping you along the way. You'll also be collecting locket fragments to do puzzles and fill up a throne room with your achievements. Even with the time limit, I was able to finish the game. It was better this time because instead of a mere temple, you were building all of Olympia!

Your father and his jazz club are being attacked by a ghost! You must discover the culprit and free the people of New Orleans!
To be honest, it took me a while to get into this game. I liked the story and the characters, but the atmosphere was a bit dull and for a while I found it kind of boring. Stick in there, though...it gets better! This game lasted quite a while for a SE game and the numerous fun puzzles eventually won me over.

This is a reboot of the old "Fruit Lockers 2: Enchanting Islands". It's a brick buster game that involves matching fruit and has insects trying to throw up obstacles. A few reviewers said this is basically the same game as the original, so I decided to check for myself (I still have the old one on disc). Here's what I found.
Pros of new game: Relaxed Mode! Older games were often sadly without the relaxed mode option. The original gave you plently of time, but relaxed mode is always better for casual games.
Cons of new game: Where's my island? In the original, a girl named Alice had her own island and as you earned money through gameplay, you decorated your island with a castle and gardens and such. That was the big appeal of the game for me!
Conclusion: I'm just not sold on this without the island to decorate. If you only want a traditional ice breaker game, than this one is a lot of fun.
