As usual I played on Casual level and I thoroughly enjoyed the game.
The quick filling Hint button and the Area Cleared notices were a great help. I never had to use the included Strategy Guide at all.
It took me a few hours to complete plus the bonus level included with the CE took me about another hour so I thought it was worth the money.
I liked concept. It was different than most HOGs as it did involve thought and planning.
I thought the CE was worth the price for the bonus level alone. It added a nice dimension to the game.
Great game! Almost good enough to make my favorite HOG game but not quite.
Looking forward to the sequel.
I recommend this game!

This game was alright.
It is rather redundant with the running around. There are too many games like this and when you have played one, you have played them all.
The graphics were so so.
The story line was just okay.
I don't recommend this game.

I like this game. It took a nice amount of time and was not too hard for me, being I like the Easy level.
I am a recent convert to HOGs as I am not particularly fond of them of HOG puzzles. So for me, this game contained too many HOG puzzles. Yes I suppose if you love HOG puzzles, it is great but they make me so tired. I ended up quitting on the HOGs and coming back fresh after a good nights sleep.
I also thought the Hint button took too long to refill. I am a lazy game player and if I can't find something right away, I want a hint. Although the Hint button did recharge quickly, it wasn't quick enough for me.
Other than that, I found the story line fun and the graphics well done. I especially enjoyed the opening of the game, with the demon and his horn. I think the game programmer should make that their logo. Well done!
I recommend this game!

I enjoyed this game.
I played on the easiest setting, as usual, and found it to my liking. The hint button guides you to where you need to be. The Skip button recharges quickly.
The story line was entertaining. The graphics were well done. The music was not too annoying.
My only minuses were that when I logged out and logged back in, it always put the Custom Cursor back on so I had to switch it off. Also the game crashed to my desktop at least three times during play.
I recommend this game!

This does not rank up with my favorites but it was an enjoyable experience. I had some minor technical problems (I got about half way through the game and one of the rooms I had already opened closed and I couldn't get back in so I had to start over).
The story line was not as interesting as some of the other games available on BFG. I played on the lowest level as I am a casual player and I found the game to be just right for me. (I like to skip puzzles!)
The hint button is there if you get stuck which is another bonus that I like.
I recommend this game!

This is a great game. It ran perfectly on my old computer, no technical issues at all.
The game itself has two modes, regular and advanced. Since I am a casual player, I went with regular. The game get going along. The hint button powers quickly and helps if you need advice. No need to check out the forum for tips.
The graphics are lovely, the story line entertaining. I got a good 4-5 hours of entertainment for my money and I skipped a large number of the puzzles that weren't my cup of tea. However, I did play some of the puzzles as they weren't too complicated for me. (I don't have a great deal of patience.)
All in all, very pleased with this game.
I recommend this game!

Those of you that love the old standard Tower Defense type game where you build up your fortresses to keep the monsters from getting to the end will love this game. It has a variety of outcomes as to how you spend you power ups. And it is a great fun game for all ages.
I recommend this game!

This game is not overly complicated.
It has 44 Levels which is a good amount.
It does not have levels where you are blinded. You are able to complete each level.
I played all the way through in Normal mode and found some of the levels more challenging as the game went on but was able to finish all with Gold.
I recommend it as a great edition to the series.
I recommend this game!

This is not a HOG game so why they have it in this category, I do not know. This is a puzzle game and those of you that enjoy a good puzzle will find it satisfying.
I am not one for puzzles but the graphics and story line made this game a huge winner for me. I found I used the built in Strategy Guide quite often which I consider cheating but I have little patience and I want to see what is going to happen next NOW.
I do not understand the people that say the game is too short as I found it rather long. It took me days, with breaks of course, to finish it. It makes me wonder if they did not go through the portal and complete all the different levels.
The Bonus Level gives you one additional round to play and although it did not take me long to complete, please remember I cheat and use the Strategy Guide.
I think if you are a casual game player like me, with easy to moderate skill levels, you will enjoy this game very much.
I recommend this game!

This game is fun. It is not exceptionally challenging and although it is not easy to get gold on all levels, you do not need to to finish building your house.
Fun game, just the right amount of fun and challenge combined.
