Very enjoyable time management game. Enjoyed using the weather components to upgrade characters and replenish raw materials. I am always amazed at how people truly dislike challenging games. The reviews here remind me of Safecracker, another difficult game I loved.
Although difficult, I LOVE challenging games which require a great deal of strategic thinking to get gold....hence my love of TM games. The latest releases in this genre have all seemed like retreads with different characters and stories. Not this one. It reminds me of the Princess series, but with the added weather features it feels a bit different. Unlike the Princess series, failing on a level does not prevent me from moving to the next level. As a result, I can play through at my leisure or go for the gold. For me, this makes an ideal game for relaxation or challenge as well as enhanced replay value.
Bottom line...if you like a challenging game, give it a try. If not, you will probably get frustrated unless you can enjoy playing without seeking success goals. Looking forward to hours of play working out the strategy to get the gold.
(Lost a star for bad instructions, not seeing all goals at once and wind graphic being difficult to find in the sometimes cluttered interface.}
