I LOVE looking for the objects hidden in the game, however I absolutely HATE the mini games and I do NOT play them. BIG FISH, please give the option in the menu to be able to disable the timer. It frustrates me that I MUST sit and wait for the timer to run down before skipping a section I have NO intention of playing. Options make the world go round.

This morning I saw this game and curiosity got the better of me. I downloaded it and played for hours! At first it was confusing, but I kept playing and as I played it started to make sense. Can't believe this is a F2P game! I would have gladly paid for it. I've gotten more enjoyment out of this free game than I have for most of the games I have paid for. Looking forward to this company coming out with more games similar to this one. Thank you Big Fish for adding this to your inventory!
I recommend this game!

I have several of the Big City Adventure games and I love the games. As I finish a game in this series I purchase another one and it won't be long before I have the entire series. Currently I am playing New York. The only drawback is several of the scenes are exactly the same as some of the ones in San Francisco. When I purchase a new game, I want NEW scenes...not to replay scenes from other episodes. This is my only complaint. Other than that...LOVE the game!
I recommend this game!

I'm loving this game. Normally I don't read the story, but this one caught my attention and I'm enjoying it.
Although I do need to think about what to do next, there is a logical progression that actually makes sense. This is going down as one of my all time favorite games.
I recommend this game!

30 minutes was all I could take before uninstalling this game.
There is way to much dialogue. I want to play a game, not read a book.
Hint system is the worst I have ever seen. When you need the hint button, it does not point out what you need. One hint I used, all the avaliable places showed up for a short time...not long enough to determine which place was the one I needed. The next hint showed a blured small area, that once the hint closed, I could not find the area the hint showed.
This game is confusing and hard to determine where to go next.
More frustrating than it is worth.
I don't recommend this game.

For the most part, I am now bored with most HO games that have no adventure included...however...I enjoyed playing this game.
Normally I just play a game and do not read the story, but in this game, it was the storyline along with playing that kept me interested.
Fortunately, I did not need the hint button very much, however, when I did need it, I found it to be very slow refilling.
Music got on my nerves after awhile so I muted it, however I find I mute most games anyway.
This game isf great for a lazy afternoon when all you want is peace and quiet.
At the end of the story it said to watch for the next game which was to continue where this one left off, but I have not seen a sequel which is a shame. I would have enjoyed the next chapter had they released one.
Oh well, on to bigger and better things.
I recommend this game!

I read all the reviews and I agree with all the positive input so there is no need to rehash all over again.
The only thing I would add is when you get to a mini-game, there are no instructions telling you what is needed to accomplish the game. I needed to refer to the WT for all the mini-game instructions.
Other than that, I enjoyed playing this game. It did take me several hours as I like to take my time so I feel I did get my $ worth.
I recommend this game!

How refreshing to have a new game that is so different from all the other Match 3 games I have.
Kudo's to the developer!!! We have the OPTION to play timed or untimed. Something for everyone which is great. TY TY TY.
Graphics are great so far the music is ok. I am not one to listen to the music, however, I did listen to it while playing the demo.
The object of the game is to restore a town that has been devistated. We play the Match 3 and help to restore what has been destroyed...Never fear citizens...we are coming to rescue all of you and restore your town one player at a time.
Enjoy
I recommend this game!

A few hours ago I started playing this game and I just finished. As games go, this one is right down the middle of the road.
Most of the game I was able to play without help, however, I did find that I needed the WT more than I would have liked.
Storyline was not all that great so I tended to just ignore it and just play the game.
HOS games were good in the respect that I was able to see the items I was looking for. Some were hidden better than others.
I recommend this game!

This is probably the easiest HOS/Adventure game I have played. There is no WT, however, I found I didn't need it, which is a first for me.
The HOS were not difficult. Items were easy to find for the most part.
The game made sense as I played. If and when I needed a wrench (or whatever item was needed), I was able to find it without to much back and forth.
If you are looking for a more challenging game, then this one is probably not for you. If you are looking for a good kick back and play after a busy day, then you might enjoy playing.
As games go, this one was shorter time wise. I wish it had been longer...more for your money.
I recommend this game!
