I haven't bought a game in a while but I had to have this one. Typical Elephant graphics. Beautiful!
Story is good, yes, as with so many games nowadays, you have to find who dunnit. That is fine by me.
You have the typical collections to find, morphs and such, which are not easy to spot.
Storyline is also explained on the BFG site and other fishies.
HOPS are in stages, and mini games are not too hard.
I have all of the Grim Tales, and this one is better than the last ones.
I lose interest easily but this one captures my interest in playing. Love the graphics and the Developers style in how they create the games with lots to do and lots of imagination.
Yes, why can't I just step over a tree trunk instead of cutting it first......who cares. It is just a game and not every ones taste but I enjoy it very much.Very entertaining.
And did I mention the graphics? :) Love it
I certainly recommend it
I recommend this game!

Everything good about this game has already been mentioned by fellow fishies.
I love the graphics, very detailed and lifelike. Great colors.
Plays like a CE with collectibles etc. Very complex puzzles and great story.
I have not bought a game in a long time, but this one is a must.
I recommend this game!

After waiting a long time for a fun, interesting and beautiful solitaire game.....here it is. I gave up hope for another good solitaire after playing Chronicles of Emerland . I tried it for a couple of minutes and bought it.
Gorgeous graphics, lots and lots of levels, items to buy to reconstruct the village, power ups you can buy that will help you further on as it gets more challenging.
You can replay levels to earn 3 stars. You can play normal or hard.
This is just a good game that I will play over and over. It is nice to see that there are other fun games besides the hidden object games, which I also like a lot, but that is definitely a nice change
I recommend this game!

I was very excited when I saw another 1000 doors sequel. But when I started playing I got bored with it pretty fast.
What happened to the quality? It also seems to be a very short game.
There is nothing that qualifies it as a CE.
The first game was always one of my favorites, very well done with a lot of imagination.......this one left me flat and bored.
Well I guess, just like most movies, sequels are going downhill with every episode.
A no go for me.
I don't recommend this game.

Yes, we all have seen this story before but it had a different approach and I needed to know the truth. That is why I had to buy it, besides there is an awesome deal from BFG this weekend.
Graphics are beautiful and there is a lot to do here.
Collectables as usual and a good map. It has a nice flow and you never have too much inventory so you really don't forget what to do with it.
HOGs are somewhat interactive and minigames are easy but fun.
This is a well done game.
I recommend this game!

This is another great sequel of , Off the record . I like the clean crisp graphics from one of my favorite devs Eipix..
Story is captivating so far, minigames are somewhat challenging but fun, collectables include paint tubes and letters. You also have morphs in the HOGs.
It all plays in Austria, which reminds me of my home Germany. Beautiful scenery. So far it is very well played and the story is still interesting enough for me to not get bored.
Give it a try, it is a very similar style to the other ones.
I'm not one to describe the story in detail since it is given by BFG already.
I am getting tired of fairytales, dragons and saving someone under an evil spell. Bring back more realistic stories please.
So go ahead and enjoy. It's good
I recommend this game!

What a beautiful and interesting game.I stumbled across it, not sure why I did not see it before. This is a wonderful game, better than a lot of CE's. It is just an SE but has achievements and collectables. You collect mistletoes and mosaic pieces which you will need later. They are often hard to find and I got so engrossed in the game that I sometimes forgot to look for them
Graphics are beautiful and the story keeps you going. Even the sound effects are well done. Impressive.
It has a map, which allows you to jump and another tab for the clues you collected.
This game makes you think and it never gets boring .Lot of locations to go to and it only gets better as you move on.
There should be more SE's like this. It is so good
I recommend this game!

I can't understand some of the harsh comments by other fishies. This is a very entertaining M3 game. Beautiful graphics, challenging game play and yes, Christmas theme a little late. Who cares.
It is in the style of the other Jewel match games, very nice, but I turn off the sound, so the Christmas music does not bother me, since it is already past that season.
Give it a try.
It is a good game, will use a free punch on it for sure.
I recommend this game!

I only played 10 minutes and had to delete. Poor graphics and story. Did not keep my interest at all and it sounded so promising.
It kind of had a lag especially during the cut scenes.
First game of the new year but a true let down for me
I don't recommend this game.

This is a very good game, keeps you on tour toes.
All good things have been mentioned already. I truly enjoyed playing it, however it has the shortest bonus game I have ever played. Bummer
