I tried it and immediately enjoyed it. Lots of different type of ho games. NO circles where you keep going round and round because one ring moves another. This is ho and mahjong and match 3 all in one. I highly recommend this one. In fact, I liked it so much I am going to now try the Road Trip USA. You will not be disappointed with this one.
I recommend this game!

I could NOT wait for this one. I just love all the Christmas Wonderlands. Great graphics, great story line, too. The puzzles don't drive you nuts clicking on one thing and another turns and you just keep going round and round. Not here, well I think some of the early Christmas ones may have one or two but I skip them. The entire team on these Wonderlands deserve high praise. They keep you interested and guess what, I don't have kids to play this, I PLAY IT!!! Just love them all and look forward to No. 10.
I recommend this game!

This is the best of all of them. Great story line, great graphics and good mini games. I have all Heroes and this is the best I think. I've played it over and over and just love it. The small puzzles in it are good yet not confusing or hard. If you don't have any Hellas games, buy this one FIRST. You won't regret it.
I recommend this game!

This is a fun and scary game. Not bad scary but unexpected things. Good game. Not crazy about some of the mini games in this. I don't like ones that go round and you touch one thing and another moves and you just keep going around and around. I skipped some of the games. Great graphics. I enjoyed it but it seemed a bit shorter than some of my other games. Nice to play for Halloween. I would recommend this game.

Love this game. I have all of the Big City Adventure games. Love them all. They are happy games. The puzzles don't drive you nuts by going round and round constantly and still not solving the puzzle, so you skip them. Not in Big City Games. I HOPE this is not the last one. Besides being fun, you learn interesting things about each city. I'm from the northeast, so the New York City one is a favorite. You don't get bored with any of these games. The instructions are easy to understand, unlike some games where you must read the instructions several times and STILL not get it. Not with Big City Games. EVER. I won't even try the next one free (hopefully there will be a next) but just buy it because you just know it will be good. What more can I cay about these games. Great job by all. Thank you so much for these "adventures."
I recommend this game!

Thank you for a nice hidden object game. Loved the graphics. It has a map which is simply terrific. Saves a lot of going back and forth as in some games. That sort of puts you off the game I think. Nice hidden objects and nice puzzles. Fun and not too hard. I dislike puzzles that are VERY hard. I want to have fun, not get aggravated because of a puzzle that seems totally redundant. I'm sure most of you know the kind I mean. I want to relax when I play a game and guess what, you will with this game. Try it and then you'll agree and buy it. Love it. I definitely recommend this game.

I read a lot of the reviews and all were favorable. I tried it and agree with everyone. Great game and it has a guide in the SE. Unbelievable. What a great idea! Still doing the game and enjoying it. I did make the screen lighter before starting the game after reading some reviews. They said it was a little dark and it was but making it lighter really helped. I would recommend this game because it has nice graphics, scary music but no weird things. I just like hidden objects without the weird stuff. This is great. Buy it and you won't be disappointed.
I recommend this game!

Love all the Big City Adventures--I have them all. Nice story line and I love the info you get about all the different cities. Lots of nice graphics. You can relax and just enjoy the time on this game. Background music makes you feel like you are there. Not crazy about getting the gears to work so I usually skip that puzzle but the other puzzles are just fine. This game is for fun and relaxation. I retired so I can relax and Big City Adventures relax you.

Enjoyed the other Cradle games and this one is a chain game. Enjoyed it--fast moving. I would rather have a different cursor but the cursor speed button helped so it did encourage me to buy this game. If you like chains, you will enjoy this. I recommend this game. Enough changes to keep your interest.
I recommend this game!

Saw the reviews, love Cradle of Rome 2, so bought this. Very happy I believed the reviews. Great game, really nice graphics and a fun, fun, fun game to play. It has nice mini games to play which only add to this game. You will not be disappointed in this game. Lots of hours of pure fun when you don't watch tv. Recommend this highly.
