I only played the demo of this game, so this is just my observations of one hour of game play -- I HAD FUN. I liked the cartoonish graphics, and the old English language and style of play.
The challenge was there as well, The HO scenes were great but somewhat challenging . If you are someone who likes to speed through gameplay. Probably not your cup of "tea" but if you like a challenge, and some thought, go for it.
I did purchase the game after an hour, there is a lot here, to keep us busy for awhile. (Best played with a soothing cup of Earl Grey) -- Just one man's opinion.
I recommend this game!

In my opinion, CE games must have certain qualities to separate themselves from the regular Standard Edition, I just played the demo, so this is not really a review of the game, but just a few observations:
- There are no collectables, no morphing objects, no achievements.
- There is no map
- I loved the one Hos scene I did play, it is not your typical HOS, but one where you find one object that leads to finding another and so on.
The game itself is just your standard 3 star game, nothing stands out for me at all. The graphics are typical, but nothing to really write home about, the voice overs are so, so.
When I purchase a CE game it at least must have some achievements and collectables - something that will separate it from an SE version.
However, I did like enough of the story and the gameplay to purchase this later as an SE game. At least that is one man's opinion.

This is one game where junk piles are a necessary part of the game. Clutter 2 is far and away much better than the first game. The gamer has more control of its environment, you can play with or without a timer, turn off hints, and pretty much setup how you want to play the game.
The purpose of the game, is to learn to de-clutter the ordinary things in your life.... but this game does more for me than just gameplay, it relieves stress, makes me laugh, and teaches how to focus on the task at hand.
it is a Joyful Jaunt through a Junkpile Jungle...... at least that is one man's opinion
I recommend this game!

MY BIGGEST pet peeve in these reviews, is reviewing a game based on the demo only. It is unfair to a developer and unfair to gamers.
This game came out on another site several weeks ago, and I played through the entire game. It started out slow, but was one of the most enjoyable and fun games I played. It was one of the few times I actually hated to see a game end.
I loved the animated cut scenes, it was definately like watching a cartoon feature. In fact it was a cartoon. The puzzles and HOS were great, and the game in my estimation had a real charm to it.... to the reviewers who only played the demo, you are definately depriving yourself of some fun. And that is what these games are all about... having fun. At least that is one man's opinion.
I recommend this game!
