I really Love it until the bonus chapter, I went to skip a puzzle. Well, this happened on several puzzles in the bonus chapter. I had to skip the puzzle in stages waiting each time on the skip button being charged up. One puzzle, 6 stages. One puzzle 4 stages. You get the idea. What a pain.
I would recommend the main chapter and give it 5 stars.

I was a little disappointed because I like the subject matter so much from the previous Halloween Stories. Another series did a good job of Edgar Allan Poe so couldn't see having it in this series. Bought this on a BOGO. Liked it more than I thought but it wasn't my favorite 2024 Halloween game.
It has 3 of Poe's stories wove in, in 3 chapters. The bonus chapter took a while before I seen where it was going. Like the bc once it got going. Loved the hops. Like a few puzzles.
Replay 13 hops, 13 mgs and 5 music. Has 3 chapters + bonus, 7 wallpapers, a screensaver, 25 Expedition scenes to pick up anything you missed, secret room is a jigsaw. I collected 24 pumpkin puzzle pieces and 12 collectibles. Could use more collectibles.
I recommend this game!
Rest is good for the blood.

This game has so many Halloween characters. It is delightful. The story has a twist. Movement in zoom boxes after you complete an action. The hops have full on Halloween themes which I love. Tried some puzzles. The Boudoir has a refreshment table to buy Halloween themed food. Wasn't sure what I thought of the Aquamarine Mermaidy.
Last year's Gloomy Tales: One Way Ticket has full interactive scenes from start to finish. Which is very good except I had problems with the bonus content.
Replay 42 videos, 16 hops, 48 mgs and 5 music. Has 3 chapter + bonus, 10 wallpapers. I collected 10 morphing victim portraits, 10 anti-vampire weapons and 70 Invitations. Could use more collectibles.
I recommend this game!
One way or another, the past always comes back.

The collectible hotel was Burton Hotel, and the other titles hotels are from the last 11 Haunted Hotel which James Blackthorn is leading man. James after he married retired. Now his cousin David Blackthorn is on the job. I seen the last name spelled different in different areas of the game. I just wish they would pick one spelling and be done with it.
I really enjoyed playing this game. The guest book in the hotel is signed by Rachel Cowell and James Blackthorn. Like how they string other Elephant games together. I found some movement in the game like a rubber ducky, paper boat and airplanes. Had several scenes open. Really enjoyed the hops.
Replay 14 hops, 13 puzzles and 6 music. Has 4 chapters + bonus chapter, 26 Expedition scene if you missed anything, secret room has jigsaw puzzle, achievements, 5 wallpapers and a screensaver. I collected 12 Hotels and 26 puzzle pieces. Like more collectibles.
I recommend this game!

I counted 34 scenes. At least 3 used twice or multi-layered. The CE has an extra 12 scenes that are wonderful. It has improvements like a check mark if you don't need to find the photo. It has much more movement in the scenes. Ghosts moving about. The CE haunted mansion and Spooksville train scenes are worth it in my opinion. I'm using the CE Greenhouse wallpaper.
Buying and decorating a house for Halloween was fun.
My only complaints are Blueberry are in the matching game for poisonous berries, I know that isn't accurate. The jigsaw is too hard. I like jigsaws to be large pieces outlined and enjoyable. Had some items on the hidden object list that I didn't know and just took guesses for. Like technical term for an item that isn't common knowledge.
I recommend this game!
A fun and relaxing hidden-object experience!

There are 5 now in the series. This was the last one that didn't give me trouble. The morphs are a little too hard. The scenes are so wonderful. I Love how you can just get a close up with the mouse wheel. The picture is just as crisp in the close up.
I found the morphs so I could have puzzle pieces to put the pictures of flowers and plants together. I always ran out of pieces to place the jigsaw so had to play some more. I purchased plants. Don't care much about placing the plants but loved buying them. Like for all the scenes to full of my screen. Tired of differences.
I recommend this game!
Take a Mediterranean adventure of hidden objects and much more!

I did like the name of the locations and the Full Screen hop. Liked the mini-games.
What I didn't like was it doesn't magnify well because it isn't moveable, it shows 4 places and when magnified it's blurry. This was a pain and NOT fun.
I don't recommend this game.
Go on an exciting journey to beautiful locations around the world!

I was disappointed with the magnifier. The magnifier doesn't do much good and it's hazy. So many other hops have excellent magnifiers. The scenes aren't really vivid. Scenes too little and a strain for the eyes.
In the scene Clearwater, Florida, the man has 2 right shoes on.
I did like the Pink House in Argentine. I liked the descriptions beginning the scenes and all the collectibles

I trialed it and liked it enough to buy it, but it got so boring. Took me over a week to finish it because I would stop if I got bored. Each hop is used twice. I hate to play a puzzle to have a conversation. Want outlines in the plus items and not the shaking the plus item does on the tool bar. Finding the differences when it isn't side by side for memory is terrible.
The voices were turned all the way up and I could barely hear them. I keep my volume knob at the same place for every game and I had to turn that up just for the voices. Where did the interactive scenes go?

The only mini-game I liked was the swap flower petals. Actually, has one nice wallpaper without a character. Liked the 10 fashon clipings, 10 morphing barber tool and 70 hair cut coupons. Replay 36 videos, 16 hops, 48 mgs. Has 3 chapters + bonus, 15 wallpapers and 15 concept arts.

I liked so many things about this game. I liked the hops, most mgs, the beautiful scenes, the collectibles, the jigsaw, achievements and the wallpapers. Has 3 chapters + bonus, 5 wallpapers, 12 tarot cards, 24 roses to make a jigsaw (you can replay). You can go back and pick up a collectible you missed in the end.
I recommend this game!
