I'm hooked on the bonus puzzles, and what's great is that my progress is saved so I can work on a jigsaw puzzle and then come back to it later to finish.
Throughout the game I was looking for trash to pick up. The anchors were ok, but I preferred looking for the boxes, bottles and cups instead, but I understand the devs wanting to change it up a bit.
The math problems were too advanced for me, and I had to skip them or exit the game to find the square root of this or that. I didn't mind. The devs shouldn't have to dumb down a game on my account. I just skipped and move on.
If you've played one, you've played them all so most know what they're getting into. You can't go wrong with any of the Cruise Director or Park Ranger games IMHO. They're fun, relaxing vacation getaways from the hectic, everyday world.

I love this game! It's very addicting if it's played right. First, one needs to acquire $. That's done by breeding and selling the Magic Fish of Nutrition or the Golden Guppy. There are tons of forums online to help.
After, get a second selling tank to make more $. Then research and upgrade so the rare fish can survive.
The trick really is getting that income first.
The PAUSE button is in settings (so the fish don't die while the game isn't running).
The EXIT button isn't so obvious: Go to settings again, and turn off full screen, then hit the "X" at the top right to get out. (don't forget to pause the game first!)
The graphics aren't fancy and the game play seems simple, but this game gets addictive, regardless. There are tons of forums and a huge community for this game so help and tricks and tips and charts are always available. However, it's pretty simple to get started with the in game tutorial.
Sometimes, I find myself just relaxing and watching my fish swim, then I snap out it so I can get back to what I was doing!
If Last Day of Work upgrades this game, or comes out with a Fish Tycoon 3, I'm on it!

I'm on level 25, and I'm having a blast!
It's not too difficult, but the "easy" mode still gives me the right amount of challenge as to where I have to replay some levels over again to get the stars.
For me, the right level of strategy and challenge are what's most important in a TM game, and everything else is icing on the cake—and there's plenty of icing on this cake. So far, the graphics are right on; the gameplay is smooth. I can't find any fault in this game.
I definitely need to add more Rescue Team games to my library. This one is turning out to be a fav.

This was my first time playing a game from this series, and If the other games are as fun as #6 is then I have a lot of catching up to do. The challenge was perfect for me. I had to replay most levels a few times to figure out the best strategy, but the end goal was always in sight and achievable. There's a few TM games out now that are too challenging for me to be fun, and I had gotten used to playing on "easy" mode lately, but that can get boring quickly. New Yankee #6 was just challenging enough to be addicting.
I recommend this game!

because I liked the first Bonfire game, and this one is a continuation of where the first story left off. A small group of people are sitting around a campfire telling scary stories, and now it's the second person's turn to tell his story.
Although this game does get suspenseful at times, the dark horror factor isn't there, and that suits me just fine. I tend to stay away from games that are too depressing. I wont give the plot away. I'll just say that the story is involved and interesting, and I really enjoyed it.
The colors and ambiance are just right, just dark enough to add to the overall feel of the game. The puzzles are unique and interesting too, not too difficult but not so easy a small child can do them.
If you liked the first one, you'll love this one, and it gets even better the further along you play.
I recommend this game!

Every so often a game comes along that excels above the rest. This is one of those games. The story is intricate and involved. The characters are well developed. The voice acting is superb. The music is addictive and gives the entire experience depth. The puzzles are fun and varied.
I purchased this game about a year and a half ago. I just now played it again for the second time. I remembered that it was good, but I had forgotten just how good it is.
There are many games based off of Lewis Caroll's Alice in Wonderland. Bridge to Another world even made another more recent take on this classic in "Through The Looking Glass," and while that one is a great game as well, this one is my favorite.
I recommend this game!

--although some have complained that it was too easy. The gameplay is a basic road game where you collect resources. On some levels I got three stars the first time around, and on several others I got three stars after a few tries. That's perfect for me.
The "easy" mode on many TM games doesn't offer all the stars, and you can't take advantage of the extra bonuses, so what's the point of playing? This game allowed me to fully participate on "normal" mode, without having to repeat levels of fifteen minutes or more, over and over again. The "hard" mode can be for people who want more of a challenge.
The graphics are good but basic. There's forty levels that are around five or six minutes each. I kept thinking that the levels were short enough, so maybe one more, and before I knew it, over an hour had gone by. The more I played, the more addicted I became.
I recommend this game!

Although this game is colorful, I rode the hint button all the way just to finish it. There was way too much back and forthing for me to enjoy this one and no HOS, or logic, so I lost interest.
Older children may enjoy this fantasy game. As for me, I'll move on and forget the time lost while playing it. Definitely try the demo for yourself. Many people seemed to love it.
I don't recommend this game.

Lately, I haven't been writing reviews unless I really like a game. The fare hasn't been that great for me in awhile now, so I haven't written many reviews, but this game was exceptional.
Sure, the story has been done before. We've all been in plane crashes and have explored deserted islands to save mankind. I wonder if Diana ever feels a sense of Deja Vu each time she explores a new island? Even if she does, Five-BN does such a fine job in creating this awesome fantasy sci-fi that I never once got bored while playing this game.
The graphics were so cool when the villain was being bad. All camera angles were well done. The story was well done. The puzzles were all diverse. But most importantly, I didn't feel bogged down with too much back and forthing.
The bonus game was a good long length and a prequel that flowed well with the main game. I would have been happy alone with the bonus game, but the extra game also rocks. It's twenty levels long. That's right, twenty! The goal is to place tiles in the right spots by moving them the correct number of spaces.
With the quality of this game and all the extras, I really feel that I've gotten my money's worth. So wtg Five-BN! I definitely recommend this game!

The standard edition stands alone and is a great game, but the bonus level continues the story. Some games go downhill after the demo, but this one gets better the further along you play.
The mini-games are what makes this game really stand out. They're mostly variations of card games, which I really enjoy. Some were pretty easy, but a couple took some brain power. The most difficult puzzle for me was a rubric's cube type puzzle that, I'll admit, I ended up using the guide to solve, but I had fun trying. All the mini-games and HOPs are re-playable.
This game has something for everyone, casual and expert alike, and it all flows together nicely and has a logical sequence. The story got my attention, and the corgi was adorable without being annoying. Time flew while playing this one.
