Ok, I tried the trial to see if I would like this game and I ran out of time, so I bought it with a game coupon. I LIKE the game. I feel it could be better. Like others pointed out, being able to choose the accessories: paintings, things for the mantle, etc. would go a long way to improving the game. Apparently, no forum for this game so no place to ask questions like: In the shopping pic on the game description page there are icons at the top: a prize cup, an eye for looking at the room, and a gear for settings. My in game corresponding page is missing the prize cup icon. Does anyone else have one? It's an ok game. A little short. Could be better.

Having no tutorial and no explanation of what you were supposed to do or what you earned stars for - well I was just lost and lost interest in just 2 levels.

I didn't even play for 10 minutes. It started with a video arcade game and that is NOT my type of game. Thinking it might still be playable, I looked at the reviews. Learning that you have to play several of these arcade games to progress through the adventure decided me. I like adventure games, but too often find that there is an arcade element in many of them. Unless you can skip this portion, I don't arcade. Now, this game might be your cup of tea. If you like arcade and adventure games, try it. It's just not for me.

In spite of some of the negative reviews here I went ahead and bought the game. I figured there were so many different kinds of puzzles, I would just play the ones I could figure out. Well, after stumbling a bit on the first 4 or 5 puzzles, I managed to figure everything out. It wasn't as hard as I expected, and I am having a lot of fun. I have the most trouble with the Takegaki puzzle. Thank goodness for hint tokens :) . I have been having a great time and am on #144 so you can see I'm having a good time.
