I just quit the game and uninstalled during the bonus portion. Which seems to redo what you accomplished during the game. The ho items are so hidden that even when I had a hint, I couldn't find the thing and if you overclick (on casual play!!) you have to do this stupid follow the line to get back to the ho! The puzzles are either too easy or same old, same old. Definitely not worth the CE price. I felt like I had to push myself to play this as it wasn't very fun at all.

Boring!! If you play solitaire at all you will find this so easy it is pathetic. I play tripeaks solitaire all of the time (which this is basically) and I didn't even finish the demo. The cards are set up easy...at least on normal mode...then you have all sorts of power ups (which I didn't bother to use).
I don't recommend this game.

This was nothing more than....pick another hos...and another... and try to do simple puzzles that keep saying incorrect when you are pushing the right objects. No adventure at all. No linking of anything I'm finding to anything. They did try to liven up the hos....but still nothing worth doing.

I played the original some time ago which I guess was part 1 and part 2 so unfortunately I've already played this. I was so excited thinking it was an addition to the original. I loved the original (part 1 and 2). It's very much old adventure and the story line was captivating. I was sad when I completed it. A part 3 would be welcome :)
I recommend this game!

This game was so well worth my money!! It has a very long play time. A map, doesn't pop you there...but there wasn't far to go so really really helpful. Hints were fast, but rarely used. Very very very good storyline! Had me hooked right up to the end. Interactive hos, but not an overload of hos.

The game was good. Not spectacular. No map and a lot of running. The guide did come in handy because the hints aren't great and I was left wondering what to do sometimes.

I loved this game from the moment I hit Play. No hints except for HO's and no journal or map. Lots of locations, but they keep your activity to one area at a time so you aren't running too far. The puzzles were fun, maybe a little easy....but I was having a good time. I don't use sound so no idea there. When there is dialog you can hit the space bar to go at your own pace of reading which I love. I thought it was a well put together game.
Rescue a young girl from the Penumbra Motel. Solve puzzles, unravel a long standing mystery of death and disappearances in this heart-pounding adventure game!

No HOS. Not a problem for me. I don't use volume so whatever the cut scenes were saying...I don't know. No copy to read. Visuals were good, not great, not poor.
Way too many scenes pop up that you can't skip. You are stuck there until it finishes and it happens a lot. Not really even a good adventure game. Just pick this up..put it here, etc.
Maybe a good value if it goes to $2.99 but would never pay full CE price for this one.

That's all this was...one big HOG. There was no adventure, a couple of very lame tiny puzzles. You were popped from HOG screen to HOG screen. The most boring game I have ever played. I don't mind HO, but with decent graphics and story etc.

I almost didn't buy The Fool but I'm so glad I did!! It has a great original storyline. Original creative puzzles, most of them can be done with logic and patience. Nice bit of adventure which was refreshing. Also nice clear HO scenes with creative interactive items. Beautiful Graphics throughout.
I don't use volume so I don't know about music or voices.
Hints mostly work only for HO. I did resort to the walkthrough a couple of times for objects I couldn't find.
I thought it quite long compared to most games lately. Every time I thought it was over, I moved on to a new area. New areas kept the back and forth down to a minimum and you could remember where things were that needed to be done. Kept my interest until the end.
