Obviously this is a buy for me - love the collectors tag, get one free, because I will be buying four games!!!
And this is one of them. Within 2 mins, I recognised a great game - everyone else has already said the same thing, I will just say - can't wait to play!!
((Can I please say to any developers out there - please stop putting that silly intro: please turn on sound...that's a given and gee fishies every game has it. Drives me nuts!)
I recommend this game!

You just know if a game is going to be good and literally after only 5 mins of playing I knew it would be. It had interesting story, great graphics, voice overs, collectables, the works.
This is definitely a buy!

You are sent to a remote island to solve a simple case that quickly turns into a cat and mouse game between you and the culprits.

For some reason it really irked me that my 'partner' did nothing while I ran around finding and doing things. I'd rather do it on my own. Although the storyline was interesting, that other guy annoyed me so much...also the inability to go where you want was annoying as well. Normally you can go to any scene, but it was blocked, i.e. couldn't go backwards once reached the garden. Why?
Just finding a few dolls is not enough for me.
It's a no buy for me.
I don't recommend this game.

I didn't even finish the demo which is very unusual for me. I found this game to be too old school - with all these great game available, releasing something like this just doesn't compare.
I was glad I could go through the dialogue fast, but sorry devs, for multiple reasons this is a no buy for me.
I don't recommend this game.

Based on the demo, not sure what it's about, but I've discovered that these type of games are a dime a dozen and hold no interest.
Sorry, it's a no buy.
I don't recommend this game.

I have found this developer to be a bit hit and miss lately, but I'm please to have discovered they have gone back to their original game play and it's a fun game all around.
(I really wish developers would stop with that annoying announcement of playing with sound - der.)
Regardless, another buy from this fish!
I recommend this game!

I love this developer, I know the game play is always pretty similar but this time there are a few twists thrown in which makes it go from a brilliant game to an awesome game.
A definite buy for me!
I recommend this game!

This game grabbed me from the start; I don't usually worry about the storyline (hence the 4), but the graphics, puzzles, additional features, are all here in this game and after 6 minutes of playing I stopped to purchase it.

Finally! The Puppet Show series has kicked up a notch! I have all of them and even I was beginning to get bored and then along comes this game and I'm back In the game (get it?)
Based on 10 mins of the demo, as that's all it took for me to think: yes, this is a buy for me.
I recommend this game!

As pretty as the scenarios are, I am unsure of this game based on the demo - it didn't grab and I can't figure out why except perhaps because I was following the exact same methodology as a game I had just played, so there was nothing new.
Perhaps if I had played this separate to the other game it would have come off as something more exciting, but it didn't.
For now, I'll 'shelve' this one and maybe look at purchasing it sometime down the track.
I recommend this game!
