I am completly blown away by this game!! If you are looking for something new and out of the box, this is it!! I just finished it and I'm really overwhelmed. The storyline only SEEMS to be something we already know in the beginning. But as you go along in the game, the story changes into something completly new and very, very unexpected! The ending is really SPECTACULAR!!
Sci-fi fans will also love this game, although it doesn't really look like it.

The graphics are cristalclear and very well done. The music is good and fits the story, although gets a bit repetitive after a while. But the voiceovers are GREAT! And you meet a lot of different characters you have short conversations with. A nice change from all the games where you wander around alone. In the beginning of the game you might think you're alone, but you'll see....
The HOS are very, very clear with a cool new feature. Words written in blue you can click, and you get 3 different descriptions, one of them is in the scene, the others aren't. Really nicely done.
The puzzles vary from easy to medium hard, I had to skip 2 where I really couldn't find the solution.

And there is so much more to this game, you get a few really good scares that I asolutely did not see coming and made me jump out of my chair. A game in a maze that was really cool, and.... can't tell you more, I don't want to spoil the game for you!
This is a GREAT SE! The game is fast paced and submerges you in the storyline. There is no map, but for me that was no problem at all, no diary either, but I didn't miss it for a second. The game is splitted up in different divisions, and once you finished one, it closes of and you don't need to go back there, which makes the to and fro bearable.
I loved the 'oldfashioned' feel of a straight HOG + adventure game, no distractions of fluffy things and other frills to look for, but pure, concentrated gameplay that is really fascinating.

What a great game. Graphics are absolutely great and immediately set the mood for this game. A lot of nice things in this game that are new and different, you have to make choices that influence the game play, and at least play the game twice before you know all the twists and turns. Very cool.
The storyline is very good and pulls you right in from the start. Good music too that enhances the creepy feel of the game. HOS and puzzles are very good fun.
The game is long, I played abour 6-7 hours and loved every second of it! I'm sure you will too if you like the scary games!
I recommend this game!

I loved this game most for the storyline. It's really intriguiging and kept my interest going, actually this the most important aspect of a game for me. There are loads of cutscenes that are kind of slow, but well done and tell the story in a very good way.
It's a pity the voiceovers of the intro don't continue, it would have made the game much more exciting and would it have come to life much more. With VO's I would have given the game 5 stars. The music is good though and can be quite eerie at times.
I deleted the game the first time I tried it after 30 minutes, but now, the second time, I got past the tedious game where you have to find some things to restore a display and after that it got really interesting! So I went ahead and bought it anyway and I'm very happy I did!
The HOS can be quite challenging, as well as the puzzles, but I got through them and had a lot of fun doing that!
Do not expect top of the bill graphics, in fact, the whole game feels a bit old, (I guess it is, since the first reviews date from 2011# but as I said before, the story makes up for a lot of the flaws.
I had a very good time for about 3,5 hours and was very sorry it ended so soon. But not to worry, since you can continue with the new game of these dev's #see my favorite game). Try it and I hope you'll have fun too!
I recommend this game!

I already play this game since 2008, when this game was first released, it is 100% the same as then. Love the combination of frog and match3.
But there is actually something completely new! There is a second game added, which is a straight HOG game. I played a couple of scenes and it looks really good! So I'm on the fence if I want to buy this game again just for the HOG's... I'll wait till monday and decide then.
But if you don't know this game yet, try it, I'm sure you'll have fun!!

As Always, the best marblepopper in the world! Already spent hundreds of hours of great fun with these games.
This one has good graphics and a lot of pace, but for me a little bit of the same ol' same ol' music the same, most of the backgrounds the same.
But as I said, the best marblepopper ever!! Enjoy!

This is one of the most beautiful games I have ever seen! The scenery -widescreen of course- is absolutely stunningly gorgeous, mesmerizing, excecuted to the very finest detail, it's incredible!
The storyline is very good, although known, mother has to find missing son, but this is.... I don't know, extra special. I got drawn into the game and couldn't stop playing until it was over. Main game took me a good 4 hours, bonus another 1,5 hours, so a long game.
There are 4 sets of different collectables and trust me, they are not easy to find! But you can see on the very good jump-map wether you found them or not. Without the jump map there would be a lot of to and fro, and sometimes I voluntarily walked all the way just so I could enjoy the beautiful scenery some more.
HOS are quite challenging, all 3 kinds of them, putting things back in the scenery, interactive list and finding something to use on another thing. But very well done, and those also drawn in the finest detail.
Puzzles are not too difficult, but done in a very fun way, and I liked most of them (which is very often not the case) and I hardly skipped any because I liked them so much.
There are some very cool achievements and I guess I will have to play the game time and time again before I get them all!
I had a blast with this game and hope you will too! Try it and enjoy, at today's special price it's a steal!
I recommend this game!

Nice story, clear graphics. But A LOT of to and fro, and a lot of HOS, too much for me. The voiceovers are done very good.
The story is good, sometimes a bit slow.

Nice game, but loads and loads of HOS. Too much for me an not enough adventure.
Puzzles are cool and not to difficult, there is one very close to the end I absolutely loved, you'll know once you've lit your torch.
I had a lot of fun though, and hope you will too!
