You can't install this game without allowing an agreement with a microsoft pop up which I will not allow.
I don't recommend this game.

I don't think I've EVER given five stars to a game before but this was really different and really fun.
What they should do next? Let you use your own colors.
Everyone will enjoy this. Keep these coming!!!
I recommend this game!

There are so many people saying that there's way too much dialogue.
There always has been. These games have not changed. At all.
Don't people know how to use the skip button?
There isn't any need to continuously click through the constant chatter beteeen characters. Just SKIP it all. If you go back several games, they're quite similar.
Test a game first before a purchase. Use the skip feature; it's your friend.
These games are perfect for people who simply like looking for objects. HOS are always followed by some kind of puzzle.
Whenever I see a game by this company, I always know what I'm getting.
They make me smile.
I recommend this game!

I keep trying Domini games when they come out to see if perhaps they've read the reviews, had a meeting and actually made imporvements based on customer complaints and requests.
No. They haven't changed a thing. In fact, Domini games are getting worse.
I'll tell you one thing now. If I have a difficult time skipping through dialogue I don't want to read or engage in and the game prevents me from doing that, I'm done.
I lasted less than ten minutes before exiting this game and uninstalling it.
There's a woman at the hotel counter.
I'm supposed to ask her three (3) pre-selected questions.
Guess what?
You are forced to ask her all three questions...One at a time.
If you wish to skip through the questions, you can only do so one at a time.
You don't have a choice. You cannot skip the entire Q & A.all at once.
Not only was that aggravating, it turned me off from the rest of the game.
One of the worst things you can do to someone, is force them to complete an action before moving forward without allowing them to skip the entire thing if they wish to. This was a very tedius Q & A and it drove me nuts. I understand that you're supposed to be investigating but many are not interested in story lines and wish to skip through these sections.
Bye bye game.
Another Domini failure.
I don't recommend this game.

I did pay attention to all of the low ratings on this game and expected problems but I was inside the game for less than two minutes before running into the first major one.
Firstly, I'll say right now that if I can't skip through dialogue, I'll delete a game and give it a bad review. "Skip" MUST be an option. There was not one included in this game. You had to endure the pop up photos and all of the dialogue that comes with it whether you liked it or not. No choice.
Secondly, if you choose relaxed mode, the game informs you, you cannot win any of the higher trophies. Lol
You're immediately penalized for choosing this mode of playing the game. Well, since the game stinks anyways, you'll soon learn you don't mess with expert players.
Thirdly, I had a major problem as soon as the first match-3 game popped up.
It wouldn't allow my mouse to slide the tokens over to play the game. It was as if my cursor wasn't any good. I even tried to click on a token to slid it over. Nope.The match-3 game just sat there. I couldn't touch it or play it.
Talk about game bugs. I'd call it a bug if you can't even participate...yes.
I don't know who allowed this past quality control but they shouldn't have. Even games from 20-25 years ago worked much better.
I don't recommend this game.

This was a Halloween game set in the U.S. but there were european electrical sockets on the wall. Details like this ARE noticed by people.
This wasn't really a horror game either. Just a bunch of kids messing around inside a high school.
I don't recommend this game.

Couldn't play the trial. Say's you need some kind of key to play. Had to uninstall.
Ridiculous.

No Big Fish. There is not a new game every day. Old, recycled games don't count as "new." This game is nearly 20 years old.
I don't recommend this game.

There have been some really bad games tossed out to the public but this one was one of the worst I've seen in a long time. Clicking through scenes reminded me of the days we were still on dial up internet.
There's just nothing offered to assist and nothing worthwhile to pursue in this game at all.
Avoid it.

The very first thought I had with this game was "Wow, this
is really dated."
It felt like a game from 20 years ago. Also? The screen moved very slowly. You couldn't change the screen quickly at all. You had to sit there and wait....and wait.
After two or three minutes of this, I deleted the entire game.
Whoever created this for 2021 needs to reexamine their calling in life. It's certainly not gaming.
I don't recommend this game.
