Another series gone wrong, used to be one of my favorites. This game makes no sense and when do you get out of the asylum and into the graveyard? The only thing that was to par of previous games is the style of the graphics, other then that, I'm afraid I have nothing good to say. Maybe I'm just too picky.
I don't recommend this game.

This game is so outdated, very boring, hints were horrid, and game play wasn't smooth. It is so outdated, you actually had to click and hold an inventory item to move it, but if you didn't do it right, the screen you needed to use the inventory item on would close. Characters were none moving, including mouth, in fact, nothing moved. I think I forced myself to play about 15 minutes before closing and uninstalling.
I don't recommend this game.

This game looks like one i'd like, beautiful graphics, decent story, and not too challenging. So, what makes me give it only 3 stars? I bet the first 5 minutes i had to play 5 puzzles, thought it would get better, but nope, puzzles, puzzles, puzzles, everywhere you turn. This game is categorized a Hidden Object Game, but it's not, only a very few HOs. Seems you see this a lot anymore and i just do not enjoy doing all these puzzles to advance in the game, needs recategorized.
I don't recommend this game.

With all the great reviews, I was hoping this would be an awesome Trackers game, but alas, it's not even close. This was so dark in theme, not the fairytale like games this series once was. This one also had a puzzle at every turn and few HOs, which the HOs were nothing new and quite boring. Another disappointing addition to a once great series, MT must be only be great in our memories. Graphics were the only thing I can say that was as the originals, everything elses falls to the basement.
I don't recommend this game.

Haunted Legends has always been one of my favorite series, never let me down with it's great story and gameplay, but the only thing that is like the once awesome Legends, is the Little Man. The graphics also are comparable with the original versions, but didn't notice due to lack of interest. Once a series is dead, don't try to revive it with these bad versions; you had a good run, now move on.
I don't recommend this game.

What happened to Jewel Quest?....the game that initiated me into the world of internet downloaded games many years ago. I'm speaking of the original Jewel Quest, could of played it almost 24 hours a day. This one looks nothing like the original and even the music is a poor attempt to be part of the series. The first two Jewel Quests are the only ones that shine, the rest should all change their names. I so miss the quality and challenge of the originals.
I don't recommend this game.

I hesitated downloading the demo as it didn't look like one I'd be interested in, but thought maybe I'd be surprised. Well, the only thing that surprised me was it was worse than I thought it would be. It was not fun, had to do a puzzle of some kind every time you turned around; in the 30 + minutes I played, I think there was 1 HO game that was so simple a child could do it. The graphics were nice, but the color was so muted, it added nothing to the experience. Challenge was way too boring, nothing new, and definitely nothing challenging, just very uneventful. The story is similar to others, Mother needs to rescue child from bad people, but nothing wrong with redoing a theme as long as you make it exciting and beautiful. I almost didn't leave a review, but then decided I wanted to voice my opinion in hopes that developers don't start down the path of outer space and menotomy.
I don't recommend this game.

Based on the Demo period, I really enjoyed the graphics and gameplay, but, even though the story was interesting, it was a bit too violent for my taste, which knocked off a point or two. The graphics have gotten better from previous Puppetshows, but they have always been above par; love the puppet's eyes. I will probably purchase this one and try to ignore the blood and gore as it's still an enjoyable game.
I recommend this game!

This is the 2nd game I've demoed lately by Mad Head that was done like this one, and I do not care for them and won't be purchasing them. I do not care for the different game play, maybe I don't like change, but I believe if it's not broke, don't fix it. The graphics are beautiful and story could be interesting, but won't be finishing it to find out. To me, these new ones are one big puzzle and not enjoyable for my taste.
I don't recommend this game.

I can't say this is the best game from this developer, but it wasn't boring, has an interesting storyline, graphics are nicely done, and not overly challenging. The puzzles are more difficult and they frustrate me, so not my favorite part of the game, but the HOs are well done and challenging, nothing new, but difficult enough to make you really use your head. I did like this but may wait for SE.
I recommend this game!
