I'm surprised nobody has reviewed this game yet. It somewhat clumsily fits in the inlay genre, but the game is solid and original. It's another simple, yet fantastic work of art if that makes any sense. There is the main game which is the most fun, and provides all the stamp collecting entertainment. Then there are the free play mini games. With hundreds of levels to play, this one will last you a while unless you're playing all day long! Definitely worth a try, I even redeemed a game credit for it.
I recommend this game!

This game's visual style and gameplay combo is very appealing. It reminds me of an old shareware game from the '90s called Aro. The serious problem this game has is it punishing difficulty and poor control scheme. The movement keys are alright, but the jump button is unresponsive. If you die once, it's all over. You have to start the level from the beginning, unless you reach a continue point which are few and far between. The game does give you unlimited lives, but it's just frustrating dying frequently and not being able to progress because of how the game is designed. I keep wanting to play this game, but in the end it just becomes a chore and I stop. It has potential, but I can't see myself purchasing this one.
I don't recommend this game.

This is definitely one of BFG's best games. It came out nearly a decade ago if I remember correctly, and this is one I always keep coming back to. It's basically a more challenging and fast paced version of the inlay game, with exceptional visuals (for the genre) and fantastic sound. It's very simple and bare bones in some respects, but the game is highly detailed graphically, and has a tonne of replay value as there are many many levels are 3 different game modes with varying difficulty levels. There is no story, but that's OK because the game really doesn't suffer without it. This is a game that had a lot of love put into it, so give it a try, you won't be disappointed.
I recommend this game!

A murder has been committed and the BeTrapped! puzzle features you as Inspector Parker. Solve the crime in this engaging whodunit!

I've played through this game about 3 times now (adventure mode) and it's fun each time as I usually wait a couple years between play-thrus. The reason for this is because the trap locations do not change in adventure mode, which is arguably the game's only flaw.
This game is a decade old so if you value graphics over gameplay, it might not be for you. The puzzle mode offers a lot of replay value, but I find it kind of empty and unfulfilling in comparison to adventure mode.
Unfortunately there is no sequel to this game, because it seriously deserves one! One of the best and most unique games in all of the BFG catalog.
I recommend this game!
