I love this game: simple but addictive. I love the pixel art games but they can become tedious if they are too detailed taking too long to finish. But this game is quick and easier on the wrist [less repetitive motion].I can't wait for the next installment!!! Definitely recommend for those looking for a relaxing game that does not require a lot of thinking.
I recommend this game!

I have purchased all of the Xmas Wonderland games and loved them but this one is so bad I don't know where to begin. Much has already been said but I will ask the developers that if they insist on making the objects so small, they include a magnifying glass. I usually go straight to purchase when the game comes out but never again. I found this game endlessly frustrating so that if there was a negative rating for fun factor would have given it.
I don't recommend this game.

the music and the visuals including color palette was excellent. I think some of the review and have been unduly harsh. For the current market this would be considered a good game. The story line is mediocre with too much 'splaining but it is typical for what is on offer for today's market. It does not stand up well compared with more sophisticated developers in this genre but sadly these developers are no longer producing casual games. Unfortunately for many of the advanced players of which I am not one, there are few games in this genre that meet their skill level that are currently available. It seems that the developers are targeting more average and family friendly games which is not a bad thing, but I miss the other developers.
I recommend this game!

I purchased this game but it is a little disappointing. While the story line, voice overs and graphics are great the color palette is awful and the music is not MCF worthy. The mini games are more annoying than challenging. While I will always feel that the best MCF games were those developed by Big Fish other developers have also contributed some great games in this series. This one could have been a contender except for the few things mentioned. A good game but not MCF worthy.
I recommend this game!
When volcanic eruptions uncover hidden caves in Samoa, you can’t wait to decipher the ancient texts inside! But this educational expedition quickly takes a dangerous turn when someone steals your research! Legend says the Maori hid a powerful artifact, and there’s no telling what damage it could do in the wrong hands! Can you find the artifact and save the world in time?

While this fame is an improvement over others by this devloper because it lacked the usual eye popping color pallet it is a poor inheritor of Eipix's Hidden Expedition series. The voice overs were immaturish, the story line was lame, the fun factor low, and the over all impression was substandard compared with other games in this series by the previous developer. I purchased this game on the strength of the title but I doubt I will be purhasing any others in this series. Domini growing as a developer with the exception of their color pallet but this series is outside their scope IMO.

The game is so-so but not up to MCF standards. While I enjoyed Eipix and Elephant Games entries I like the series best when BF created them. Still it is worthwhile playing but is still disappointing: the color palette is absolutely awful and the visuals could be sharper . The game is not that hard compared to other entries to the series and the story line is not as interesting. My favorite was Dire Grove and I wish there was someway you could retool it or whatever so we could play it on the current Windows edition.

I only played this game for a short while and found it to be nothing unique, the music insipid and the story line boring. I won't be buying this game at the standard level let alone as a collector's game. It is just a standard solitaire game with more powerups if your actually need them and it passes my understanding why it warrants a collector game level. Lately I have been seeing more standard level genre games elevated to a collector game level that was not warranted by the level of play and/or the extras offered and therefore not worth the additional cost. You have some excellent solitaire games but this isn't one of them and certainly not as a collector's game.
I don't recommend this game.

This is an awful game Retro games might be chic but the shouldn't be boring: the music was monotonous, the HO games were pedestrian and the sife picutres were annoying. I couldn't stand more than 10 minutes of play time. I'm all for Indie developers but these guys need to step up their game.
I don't recommend this game.
