This is a time/resource management game, similar to Roads of Rome, but with a fantasy theme.
I know several people thought the game characters moved too fast, or found some other aspect of the game annoying, but I thought it was rather enjoyable. It is fast-paced, so the levels don't take very long, which I feel makes a nice change, as you will lose less time if you have to restart the level to get a gold star. I found the animation appealing, and appropriate for the game style.
If you are an avid fan of this type of game, as I am, you might want to give this a try.
I recommend this game!
This jigsaw puzzle gives you a meditative and intriguing combination of art and music to help you relax.

I really couldn't believe how little this game has to offer. I mistakenly assumed that the first page of puzzles was just that - the FIRST of many. Nope. That's all, folks. I realize that it has the option to create your own puzzles, but so do many other puzzle games. I have played short games before, but no others that left me gaping in surprise at their brevity. I was finished with this one in about an hour and a half.
Another thing about the game that I didn't enjoy was the new age/alternative subject matter of the puzzles. It was almost more like an introduction to an obscure philosophy than a game.
I much prefer to give positive reviews, but, in this case, I cannot. There just isn't much there.
I don't recommend this game.

This is a unique TM game set in Chicago in 1928...in a country on the brink of depression, and a city being run by the mafia. The graphics are appealing, the music is wonderful and true to the period, and the game play is fun.
You play as a young father who has just opened his own garage, and is trying to make enough to support his family. I would not have expected a game centered around auto repair to appeal to me, but I really enjoy it. It is a nice change from restaurant and farming TMs, which are available in abundance. This one has a personality all its own.
I recommend this game!

This is a medical time management game. You are able to choose a male or female doctor as your character, and then work through several hospitals in your quest to find a cure for a beloved instructor. The graphics are charming. and the game play is similar to that of the "Dash" games. Patients come in with diseases that need to be cured, and those diseases are very amusing. Be prepared for many bad puns if you play this game.
Those who enjoy fast-paced time management games which are challenging but not stressful should give this one a try.
I recommend this game!

This game is just plain fun. It is an enjoyable puzzle game, but is also satisfying in an aesthetic way. Choosing the fabrics to be used makes putting together the finished products even more appealing. Of course, I am a quilter, so I may be a bit biased. :D
I would love to see a sequel to this charming game.
I recommend this game!

This is one of the best Big Fish games I have played. The story is entertaining, the graphics are beautiful, the game play is enjoyable, and the voice acting is very good. I really like the option to switch to Mahjong on the hidden object scenes. This game has everything. And to top it all off, it's a pirate game!
I would recommend this game without reservation to all fans of the genre. Playing it is like watching a great adventure movie - it is just plain fun.

I didn't have high expectations when I began the demo, but quickly found myself having a wonderful time. If you enjoy games like "World of Goo" or "Lemmings," give this one a try.
Your goal on each level is to draw lines that will lead the doodlebugs to a pot of honey, working around or incorporating doodles which already exist on the page. Placement is very important. Like lemmings, the bugs will continue in a given direction until they cannot progress or are rerouted.
I found the artwork whimsical and appealing, and the music appropriate to the game play. This is not a deeply engrossing game, but, rather, an enjoyable and relaxing diversion.
I recommend this game!
