I've played several levels of this game and I haven't had any technical issues at all. It's been running w/o any problems and no glitches. The graphics are very colorful which I enjoy. They may not "pop" off the screen at you, but they're certainly not awful. This game doesn't measure up to The Viking Brothers/Sisters, Incredible Dracula or Jack of All Tribes; but those games are the absolute cream of the crop for me and few other TM games reach that level IMHO. That's why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. I think it's definitely worth a coupon or a good sale price like Big Fish recently had for SE games. Overall, I think this is a pretty good TM game and I enjoy playing it,
I recommend this game!

I love these types of games and buy them every time they are available. I bought this one after playing the demo for about 10 minutes. The puzzles get quite challenging after the first few puzzles. I do not play these as a race against the clock. I do them for pure enjoyment and relaxation. I have one major fuss about this version though. The strip along the right side where you select the puzzle pieces is a very drab olive green color. There are some puzzle pieces that you absolutely can NOT see against that color of background. My eye sight is great and I am not color blind. Other puzzle pieces are fine. I thought I had finished a puzzle, but the game was not showing it as complete. I finally found a very slender puzzle piece that was extremely difficult to see. Other than that, this is another winner for me.
I recommend this game!

I played the demo and got to about level 12 or 13 at the end of my time. It was a pretty mundane game. There is no Strategy Guide and no extras that would warrant it being a CE. I never was able to figure out why anyone would pay the extra money for this as a CE when there are multitudes of other TM games out there that are more CE worthy. I probably wouldn't purchase this game with a coupon either since there are so many other fantastic TM games available as CEs and SEs. This one was a major disappointment for me.
I don't recommend this game.

Playing the trial version was a great reminder of why I so strongly dislike limited move games. They are so full of frustration and aggravation and irritation that it's just not worth a purchase. I'm not real keen on playing a level a half a dozen times or more because I missed the limited moves allowed by just one or two moves. Just shoot me now. Other than that, this is a cute and fun game. I am a huge fan of M3 games and have purchased a whole bunch of them over the years, except for the ones that have the limited move requirement. I like bright colors and fun animation which this game has in abundance.
I don't recommend this game.

I really like games like this one because there are several different types of games to play. I liked all of them, but the reason I didn't buy it was the HO scenes. If your eyes aren't strained when you begin to play, they definitely will be after you work your way through a few of the HO scenes. They use the usual trick of making the hidden object the same color as the background. Many objects are nearly impossible to see, even if they aren't tiny. What really put me off was that sometimes when the "hint" showed me where the object was located, I still couldn't see it - and my eyes are very good with no problems at all. Hiding the objects went to the extreme and into the "this is no fun" category after my eyes were bugging out of my head trying to find something. I needed eye drops after the trial version was over. Otherwise, I would have gotten the game with a coupon.
I don't recommend this game.

Since other reviewers have gone into great detail about this game, I won't repeat all of the wonderful, fun and funny aspects of this delightful TM game - except to say that I totally agree with their reviews. This is one of those times when I'm going to be sad when the game is over. In October 2018 I pretty much switched from HO games to TM games and this type of TM game is one reason I have never looked back. I don't use the word "delightful" ad nauseum, but it's a perfect description for this particular game.
I recommend this game!

When I saw this as the day's new game, I was thrilled. I played the trial version for about 5 minutes, just to make sure it played okay on my computer even though I've never had any problems with this series in the past. Spellarium and Laruaville are simply top notch match 3 games - incredibly unique. There are always a few new features and they are always a step up from previous versions. I do have one problem though; once I start playing I find it nearly impossible to stop - even to grab a bite to eat when I'm hungry. I just keep playing. There are only a few "instant buy" games out there for me and Spellarium is definitely one of them.
I recommend this game!

It's a good thing I'm retired because I find it really difficult to stop playing this game and getting to bed "on time." This is a fun game right from the get-go. Graphics are great. Everything played smoothly. I'm one to play a game in the relaxed mode so I can take in all of the visuals and details. This game gives me a lot to look at and appreciate. The Satrys are the "bad guys" to be chased away, but when I saw them dance I laughed out loud. The sounds of the game are entertaining as well. There is a lot of stuff to look at and work your way through, but for me that's part of the fun and challenge. I just take it one step at a time and work with the things that are circled in green so I know they are available to collect or to connect to some other location in the game. There are 50 levels to play. This game is a 5 star winner all the way for me.
I recommend this game!

I own several of the Hiddenverse games and really enjoy all of them so I was very happy to see a new one offered today. There's no need for me to cover a lot of the detail since others have already done that. I will say one thing though - like some other reviewers, I was also surprised at all of the spelling errors. That's been described as irritating or hilarious - but no matter what your reaction is, the game is still terrific. One reason I like this series so much is that I really like clutter-style games and Hiddenverse offers other things along the way - not just clutter. It was pretty much an instant buy for me once I played the trial version for a few minutes and I haven't been disappointed at all.
I recommend this game!

This is a wonderful TM game. I've played a few of the Viking Brothers games, so I really perked up when I saw this game. I played three levels and purchased it. It's fun and the graphics are terrific - very colorful. I like having the puzzle pieces to find. Thank goodness they are easier to find than the ones in the Alicia Quatermain games - although I love those games, too. I always look for TM games with an untimed/easy mode, so that's another plus on this one for me. This is a really delightful, fun game all the way around. I hope we see the sisters in another game sometime.
I recommend this game!
