I've been playing hidden object adventure for about 12 years or so. This was the first one I bought by this game designer. Some of the objects you find or use really don't make too much sense. I also found the game frustrating with interactive spots of the screen being hard to realize they are interactive. Like one area isn't interactive, and then without notice, after a puzzle is solved, it becomes interactive. I just wasn't a fan. I didn't finish the game.

Pros:
Lots of hidden object opportunities
Lots of hidden object opportunities
Puzzles were reasonably challenging (expect for 1, which I could not figure out)
Music was nice.
Cons
Story line and the way it ended just didn't appeal to me.
If you are looking for really hard puzzles or challenges, this one is not it.
Things started to get repetitive near the end. It became a lot of hidden objects scenes to collect needed items.
Overall color and graphics were kind of grey and drab.

Fantastic graphics, sounds, music, storyline. Puzzles were reasonably challenging and fun. Wasn't too short, wasn't too long.....just right. Very fun game and helped put me in the Christmas spirit. Buy this one and enjoy!
I recommend this game!

This is a really well put together game! Pretty graphics and music with a fun story line. Only complaint is that a few of the puzzles were extremely hard to understand and the directions to those puzzles were a bit lacking. I had to use the "hint" button a few times and I really don't like doing that. Overall, I think you should buy this one. Merry Christmas! 2022

This has is one of my favorite hidden object games yet. This one is loaded with beautiful landscapes and vibrant colors. Music is fitting and does not get annoying. Story line is unique and the puzzles are understandable and reasonably challenging. I found myself playing this one for hours at a time. Give it a download.
I recommend this game!

This game has some very challenging puzzles. So challenging, that I just pressed the "skip button". which I rarely do. The amount of puzzles was a little exhausting. I mean, I know its a puzzle game, but the amount of challenging puzzles made it a bit frustrating. Some players might find it just right for their needs. Some of the instructions for the more challenging puzzles were a hard to follow.
I don't recommend this game.

Let's face it, all these hidden object games are fun! Now, if you are a more advanced hidden object game player, then this one might be a little less challenging for you, but still fun for any level of player. The graphics and vibrant colors are always beautiful. Good combination of hidden object puzzles and other type strategy puzzles. If you you like castles and dragons, this game will also tickle your fancy. Download and have fun!
Cheers!
