I usually LOVE Blue tea Games. This one, not so much. I actually thought it was boring! The graphics are also sub par compared to the original games. This is a shame, because the earlier Blue Tea Games were so mesmerizing. The only thing good, I thought, were the assemble puzzles were harder than usual. The other games could be slightly confusing, as there were no instructions on how to perform them.
I recommend this game!

I loved this game and was sorry to see it end. The puzzles are unlike other games. I usually play Expert Level and some of these puzzles had me stumped. Highly recommended!

I loved this game and was sorry to have finished it. The graphics were beautiful and the story line was interesting. I play at the hard core level. I thought the puzzles were doable, but not impossible hard. Overall, a great game and I highly recommend it!

Someone once said on a review of Blue Tea Games, "they are so beautiful, I want to cry." I know the feeling. I NEVER want this game to end, but alas, it must. They went back to the FROG type of game, which I like a lot better. After playing a Blue Tea Game, all other games pale in comparison. The game isn't hard and finding the enchanted objects is a nice little extra.
I recommend this game!

I love this game! The visuals are stunning and creepy. the story is good. The hidden objects can be hard to find as this is a dark game. I had to resort to my trusty magnifying glass a couple of times.
I recommend this game!

I've been a fan of all of the Echoes of the Past series. This one is the best, by far. Tons of puzzles, good story line and long play. one note of caution. When you chose the level of difficulty, it stays that way for the whole game. You can't change it if it's too hard for you unless you start over with a different user name. I always use the "hardcore" difficulty and some of the puzzles really taxed my patience! The extra game is great, too. Nice, long play and good puzzles. All in all, a great game!

In this game, timing is everything. There are 60 levels, and they get harder each time. The object is to knock the mummy heads off and keep the pharoah or gold coins. It's harder than it sounds. The only part I did not like were the moving parts because my computer tended to dance around on the screen, so it was hard to keep the game steady. I finished all 60 levels in a few days.
I recommend this game!

This was my first foray into Mosiacs, and I am hooked. This can be quite challenging, but not impossible. I hope Big Fish comes out with more that are harder to do.
I recommend this game!
