-interactive map, but does not tell you everything to do
-hint system is good, no need for a SG
-music is good, graphics are good
-mini games must be good, I had to skip a lot of them
-no journal

This is a game that should be played all at once. You can easily forget what and where you are.
I recommend this game!

Very unusual to find a regular priced game of this quality. The ending was unexpected.
-map is not useful, it could have been labeled so you would know what areas you were in. There is a twist in the map.
-there is a journal but it wasn't helpful
-HO's are not too bad and they also have a twist in them. I found that interesting
-there is a built in SG, but I didn't use it
-some of the voices are a little stilted
-graphics and music are normal

I found this game to be worthy of 5 stars in all categories. I rarely give 5 stars but this one kept me playing until I almost couldn't see the screen.
-HO's are so different. I don't like HO's but these were interesting
-Hint system is good. Takes a little longer to recharge
-Journal is good, but not necessary
-Mini games were just right for me. I'm not real good at them but I'd say I finished 90% of them.
-Music is okay. It isn't annoying.
-Story is like most IHOG but kept my interest

I'm not a big fan of the type game that opens circles and then find the items. It's a good break from typical HO's but this one just about made me trash it before the first chapter was done. Once I got past that it was an okay game.
-graphics are very well done
-story is different and enjoyable
-hint system is pretty good, and I had to use it a lot. I did not buy the CE.
-there is a journal, but I found it not essential
-mini games are normal and I completed most of them

If you can hang in and get past the first 10 or 15 minutes of the game you will probably like this game.

Worth the CE price. All though the bonus chapter reverts back to several HO's it is still worth the price.
-no map, and not really needed
-journal, but I didn't use it
-hint system is good, so SG is really not necessary
-HO's are not interactive
-I'm not good at mini games, but completed most of the ones in this game
-story line is interesting with a little twist in the end
-beautiful graphics

-journal gives some hints and also has a task list
-not very many voice overs
-some graphics are low quality

Boom Zap games rock and this one is especially good.
-I played the regular game, no CE. But would have paid the price for it.
-Very, very few HO's and they were not hard
-Lots of different games to replace HO's, love the change of pace
-I'm not good at mini games but was able to complete just about all of them in this game
-Played without the SG
-Hints are good

This game is full of HO's and they are not interactive and each one has 15 items to find. Grrrr
-No map, and it could certainly use one.
-The journal doesn't put the last read article first when you reopen it. I finally stopped looking at it.
-Thank goodness the hint system is good in casual mode since you will use it a lot.
-The spooky warning at the beginning of the game is unwarranted.

Its just a fair game. I would change my rating if the HO's had been better.
I don't recommend this game.

Story line is interesting.
Graphics good
Hints recharge quickly on casual mode.
Minigames are fine though I did skip a few
Journal isn't that helpful
Had to use the SG a couple of times.

There is no map and this game could have used one. There is a lot of going back and forth over a large portion of the game.
Enjoyed the game.
