The highest praise that I can give this game is to say that I played no other game today except this one. I'm only at Level 10 but it's been so much fun that at times I couldn't stop. Been many years since I liked a game so much. Yes, I've played the similar ones but this game certainly is not a pale comparison. I like being able to see the game icons (they are not as small as the previous versions) and I feel totally engaged unlike playing plain Match 3 games. I hope there will be a sequel!
I recommend this game!

At last, developers who take solitaire seriously and have created an interesting game. It gets so boring to click-click-click solitaire games. I appreciate the plotting and writing of the mystery in this one. I do prefer the up and down solitaire game so I stick to that but if I get bored, I can change to "14" or "Match." The music is repetitive but it has an underlying darkness to it as do the graphics/colors and I like that. Bought it and will go back to play it now.
I recommend this game!

What a fun morning I'm having with this new game. Just bought it! I didn't think griddler games could be improved upon but I am addicted to them anyway. But this one,is really different. In some puzzles, instead of a flat color, flowers or soil may appear in each square. There are little differences to jog the player's complacency such as a labyrinth to be created and in order to finish the game, the player must move through the maze. Or instead of Arabic numbers on the grid, Roman numerals appear. The music is relaxing and the colors are vibrant. I've now completed Amsterdam (there is a little description of each city) and moved on to Rome. Recommended!
I recommend this game!

I try not to write reviews that are less than 5 or 4 stars, but I feel I must write a warning to perhaps a small segment of game players that are similar to me: those who are not very good with mini-games. First, I will say that I love the Phantasmat games and although the first one, to me, was the best, subsequent ones have been quite good. This particular one has beautiful graphics, a good story line, everything we associate with today’s games. However, when I select the Casual mode (very easy) I expect to have skips for games, if needed. I played several mini games and they not only had no skip button, the directions were not clear in the Guide. If it wasn’t for the kind people on the Forum who explained how to do these, step-by-step, I would have given up completely. Developers PLEASE…do not go back in time and force people who like games to all be as clever as you. I am a long-time member of Big Fish and cannot tell you how many games I could not finish—in the old days—because there was no skip option. I still have fun playing your games, even if I sometimes need to skip one. PLEASE return the skip option or the game is ruined and the money wasted. Thank you…

I played the original Green Moon many years ago and although I was frustrated, it has remained one of my favorite games. The challenges are unbelievable. I could not do some of the mini games and had to ask a friend to do two for me but now I believe, since there is a casual choice of gameplay, it may be a bit easier. I have only played 40 minutes of the trial and bought it so cannot say if it "lives up to" the original but if you want something a bit different, and truly mystical, try the trial. Although some may not like the graphics, I feel the need to think is more important than pretty pictures. Try, it's free...
I recommend this game!

I found this to be a lovely game. Some games are often carbon copies but this one is about a different culture and that made it unique. Baba Jaga is a heroine in my culture so it was nice to see her not as a child-eating ogre, but as an herbalist and wise woman. The challenge was just right, for me, and I enjoyed the music, graphics and other nice touches. Hope to see more from these developers!
I recommend this game!
From the makers of the Rite of Passage series comes a ground-breaking new series that's as creepy as it gets.

I have really been enjoying the Fantasy Mosaics puzzles since they began using a board where we get to change the color tiles in order to figure out the puzzle. Number 6 has really good music and I like how they have now added the finished picture when a mosaic is completed. The level of challenge may have become less difficult for me since I play them so often and have increased my skills, but I intend to keep buying them as they create them!
I recommend this game!

I wish there was a way to rate the "Creepiness Factor." If there was, I would give that 5 stars also. Excellent game and a word to my fellow rat-phobic players: NO RATS! Yet it was creepier than any game that is filled with rats, spiders and snakes. Thanks, developers! Can't wait for the sequel!

I like this Clutter game the best. In answer to your questions Developer: games should be games. No preaching, just fun! I admit that home clutter brings negative feng shui to a home so really didn't mind your suggestions in Clutter 1, but you made your point :-) and I was glad to relax this time. Looking forward to your next game!
