Fun game without annoying character dialog when running for the objects. Fast enough paced to stay fun. You can pre-assign tasks to speed things up, too, which I like. Suggestion: next in series should have Hercules and Megara battle the mythic monsters and shades of the victims!
I recommend this game!

I adore these types of games - uncover the picture by highlighting certain tiles, nixing others. But the horrible scream that happens when you make too many mistakes will keep me from buying this. Yes, I could turn off the sound, but what fun is that? The scream is like those videos where you watch something pleasant and the zombie or ghoul suddenly jumps out at you. Very unkind. Developers, lose the banshee scream in favor of a spooky laugh, and I'll buy it.
I don't recommend this game.

I really am tired of all the scary monster HOGs being offered lately, so I was pleasantly surprised at this gentle game. I liked it for a "play before bedtime" soothing puzzle game. Recommended for younger players, too, for the no monster reasons.
I recommend this game!

Some reviews panned this game, but I disagree. It's a nice little card game to pass away the time. It doesn't have humongous bells and whistles, but it's cute nonetheless. I bought the game and enjoy playing it before bed to settle down with. I recommend it for these reasons.
I recommend this game!
