The story line was good but little to no challenge. The only challenge was figuring out what was required to move forward! Sometimes the object was clear and quite simple then there would be an object so obscure that it was impossible to figure out. I found myself skipping far more than ever! Part of it was from confusion...part from boredom. Not worth the time or money.
I don't recommend this game.

I've played all of the Mystery Tracker games and loved them all. This was no exception. Great graphics. Great sound. Great fun! My only complaint is.....it's too short! Even with the bonus game it was very very short. Still worth playing though.
I recommend this game!

The game was fun, interesting and challenging made even more so by the fact that hints did not coincide with what was given. So hints were virtually ineffectual. Often where hints pointed to an object where the object was somewhere else entirely. And, like a few other comments mentioned, the game is too short to be a Collector's Edition; but that seems to be the trend in recent CE's...they seem to get shorter and shorter. Still, I love the Puppet series and will continue to play and buy them. I just wish I felt I was getting my money's worth!
I recommend this game!

This game looks slick and seems like a great game until you actually play it. It has a great story line but that's about it. There's so much story telling that the game suffers as a result. Not nearly enough playing time and far too much reading of the story! I won't be buying this one.
I don't recommend this game.

Overall, the game was good. Visual quality lacked a bit but the story line was good and sound was pretty good. The game was predictable at times yet moments left me wondering what I was supposed to do since there was little to no instruction or help when I got stuck. But it was an enjoyable couple of hours and worth the reduced rate it sold for.
I recommend this game!

The game was ok....not very challenging. If the mini games are more challenging than the actual game, maybe some tweeking needs to be done?
I recommend this game!

Loved it the first time through. Once you learn all of the tricks, it's not much fun, though. And...it's way way too short. It should only be sold at the special $2.99 price because it's so short.
I don't recommend this game.

This game, like many of the same genre, offers several hours of good solid interesting game play. Just difficult enough to keep it interesting but not too difficult so as to need a strategy guide. Graphics would nice, sound equally good. I would have enjoyed it just as much, though, if it had been a regular priced game rather than a collector's edition. I sincerely don't see much difference between the two other than additional content.
I recommend this game!
