This is a fascinating game, and because of its lack of instruction and help, I find I am ridiculously pleased with myself when I solve another little piece of the puzzle.
It's not that difficult, just different and requires a little bit of patience.
I find it works best for me if I leave the game altogether if I start to feel a bit frustrated with lack of progress. Usually when I go back to it there is a sudden epiphany and I find myself solving the next step and moving forward.
Probably only for the patient puzzle player, but I love it!

For aficionados of this genre and series of HOG I can't foresee the day when it will become stale. Park Ranger 6, like its predecessors, was a long awaited treat for me, and game play was over far too fast.
But the great thing about these games is that you can rest them for a while and go back and replay, so you actually get great value for money when buying them.
Already I am eagerly looking out for Park Ranger 7 and I hope I'm not disappointed by too long a wait!
I recommend this game!

For me, the ultimate evidence that a game's been great is that, when it's over, I wonder what I'm going to do with my evenings now it's finished. 'Davy Jones' the third in the trilogy of Nightmares from the Deep is, with its companion games, in that category.
I loved that it was so easy to navigate between locations, via the interactive map and no endless hunts for yet more keys to open doors to increasingly senseless, incomprehensible scenes, just great HOS, and puzzles that were just challenging enough without being frustratingly unsolvable.
The storyline was great, a fantasy that could be believed in. I highly recommend this game and all three of the Nightmares of the Deep series.
I recommend this game!

All three Nightmares from the Deep are terrific good fun. I'd just about given up on hidden object/puzzle games, as so many have become obscure and more than a little whacky. But then, by good fortune, I came across this and the other two games in the series. I highly recommend this one and all of them for absolutely everything unless you are looking for a super challenge. For myself, the thing I found most refreshing was that this game wasn't. I had time to enjoy the story, which was quite absorbing, without being ridiculous, and getting from scene to scene was a walk in the park with the introduction, in this second of the games, of an interactive map, which, as with all three episodes, gives the ultimate clue as to where you should be looking at any given time.
I just can't see that anyone could be disappointed with this, or either of the other 'Nightmares'.
I recommend this game!

If like me, you like your hidden object games done in the traditional way, enjoy good graphics and a half decent story line, I think you will like this game very much.
There aren't many HOGs that I want to buy even before my free trial is up, but this was one of them, and I was not disappointed.
If I had a criticism it is that the game has you running around to too many locations at once, which is OK until you take a break and then you cannot remember exactly where you were at when you left, but this is overcome by a really good hints system which will get you out of trouble in no time at all.
None of the HOS or puzzles is too challenging, but the option to skip is there if it all gets too much for you.
No surprises, just a solid, fun to play hidden object game. I thoroughly reoommend it!
I recommend this game!

Overpriced hidden object game

I thoroughly enjoyed my hour's trial of Azada : In Libro. It was slick and fun and I would have given it five stars but for one thing. PRICE. At the end of the day it is only another hidden object game and there is no way I will pay that amount of money for ANY hidden object game. I have recommended the game, but I do not endorse or recommend its cost!
I recommend this game!
