This was a weird game experience for me. Won't go into the details as they have been laid out here by so many. This is just my thoughts on the game. Cons: - I hated the story line - so depressing and sad, even though I was pretty sure it was going to be a happy ending. - This was not a CE, imo. Went to the extras hoping to find some of the puzzles to re-enjoy and there are only 4. Really? - It's a very short game. For the price of a CE, it really needed to have and be more.
Pros: - I loved, loved the game play itself. So different and unusual, and kept my interest throughout. - Puzzles were fun and challenging. - Graphics were very cute and bright. A nice change from so many dark games out there.
I wasn't bothered by having no real directions as I love the excitement of working it all out. I did get stuck in a few places and had to push the ol' brain. And it felt good!
Angry Bird wannabe? maybe, but I don't care. It's a cute game: "general purpose sausage bombs, approved for all combat situations." Bouncy cocktail hot dogs, sliding kielbasa... come on - just plain ol' fun to while away some time with. There are some very challenging levels, but it's fun trying to figure out the right combinations. Worth spending a credit on, for me.

I agree - this game merits a higher rating than 3.5 starts. I am not a huge fan of HOPs; I prefer more puzzle solving and adventure games. But, Dawn of Hope really drew me in. I LOVED the story and actually really followed every scene, thoroughly enjoying the twist and turns. I usually get bored with most of the stories and end up turning of the sound and barely reading the cut scenes. Not here!
The game play was a bit unique and different from the usual found in these types of games. Lots of little surprised and just enough different things to do that I will be buying this one.
I'm still on the demo, so I can't say how long the game is. I see some reviewers thought is was too short and not worth the $$. For me, even if it is a bit short, I am still going to purchase it since it is so much fun.
