I really liked this game. I especially liked that it had 3 cases. Hope they make more. I have been disappointed in most of the HOPA games that have been coming out lately, but this one seems to be a step in the right direction.
I recommend this game!

This is perhaps the worse MCF made. It was boring in a lot of places, the story was ....there was a story? Some of the mini-games were very good and I enjoyed them most of all.
They need to get away from the Dalimar story line and get back to basics. Like Madame Fate which is the best MCF game, imho. Even Shadow Lake was better than this one. Still can't understand how it won Best Game of the Year...
I recommend this game!

I just found this game, July 2023, and I absolutely loved it! The mini games were very challenging, the HO scenes had items that were relative to the game for the most part and the music set the mood. I wish today's developers were realize that most of us like these kind of games. No monsters, no fairy tales, no paranormal; just good old fashion crazy. LOL
I recommend this game!

I love most of the Mystery Case Files, but I didn't even finish the demo on this one. The reason, that watch thing drove me batty. I am probably in the minority here, but I do not like "helpful gadgets and helpers". Please just let me play the game on my own.
I don't recommend this game.

This is a review of the SE.
I loved the colors and the graphics were spot on and the objects in the HO scenes where timeline appropriate. The music was pleasant to listen to and I'm so glad there weren't any ghosties, ghoulies and demons. LOL. My only complaint is that it seem to be too short.
I recommend this game!

I don't review much, but I just wanted to say that this game was fun. I liked the drawings, as they were very vivid and the music was easy to listen to. I especially liked that the HO scenes kept the objects era related. And the game itself was kept era related.
I recommend this game!

It was fun to play and it was fun to play something that wasn't the same 'ol dark and gloomy HOG. True, it wasn't very challenging, but I really didn't expect it to be. I used to look forward to a new MCF game, but it seems that ever since they started with the Dalimar story line, they are all the same.
My favorite is Madame Fate. Wish they would do more like that one.
I recommend this game!

Great game and Finally, a game that has actual period and logical objects in the HO games! Nothing gets my goat as much as having to find objects that have either not been invented or have no earthly reason to be in a particular ho game.
I recommend this game!

This is my first review ever on Big Fish and I've just got to let you all know that this is the absolutely worse game I have ever played. I didn't even last 5 minutes!
I haven't been playing HO games for awhile as lately they are all the same. I saw this one and thought it might just get me out of the rut. But alas, no. I have no idea what the story line was supposed to be and the HO scenes were so, sooo, I don't know, lame?
IMHO.
I don't recommend this game.
