From the graphics to the happy alligator in the bottom right hand corner of the screen, I really enjoyed this game. I can't say that about a lot of the CE's, so the fact that this is not a CE is truly refreshing. The puzzles were great and the hidden object scenes were o.k. too. I've been playing for quite awhile and had to stop to cook supper so it is not a short game and the puzzles while some are easy others I had to skip.
I enjoyed the game a lot. Story line was interesting and the characters were easy to understand with no lagging in speech.I had more enjoyment playing this game than I do many of the CE's

I too really enjoyed this game. While I do like my little helpers in the other games the story line had me hooked. No skip on the dialogue for me. I was hooked from the start and am still hooked going into section 3. I too get tired of HOG's, but they were few and far between. This game, in my opinion is not for the light of heart. The dead woman walking is frightful to say the least, I almost closed my eyes a few times. What a great job by the developers. Thank you, everyone.
Jack's fiancée Emily was kidnapped by mysterious scientist! Can you unravel the mystery of the secret bunker and save Emily before she is used in dangerous experiments?
I really enjoyed this game and am sorry to see the overall rating wasn't that high. I played it from start to finish and there isn't a map for the entire game but there is one when you really need it. My favourite games where shooting the fish and the bats, tricky but doable. Well paced and the HOP's where challenging enough to keep me interested instead of annoyed. Great Job.
I really enjoyed this game. While some people have complained about the hint button I used the map to get me where I needed to go. I am not a fan of HOS's generally but I really enjoyed this game, I had to think to get through it. The monsters that you have to kill are down right scary and it was fun. The notebook is a must and you have to unfold the notes which is a new twist. This game was well worth the coupon I used on it. While the HOS's are dark the objects you have to find are very visible. The clock puzzle is tricky but it allows you to continue from where you left off when you get booted out, the same for killing the demon. The map is a little annoying because of the footsteps from room to room, most of the time I just clicked on the 'red circles' on the map to get me where I wanted to go quicker. I've played CE games which I enjoyed a lot less.
I'm not much for hidden object games anymore but for some reason I really enjoyed this one. It was full of puzzles and a guide to help you if you got stuck. I was half way through the game before I realized the footprints take you to the guide. Quite the bang for your buck, had more content than a lot of collector editions. I look forward to playing it again.

I played the trial not realizing that once you buy it and start playing you cannot change the backgrounds of the tanks. You can buy tanks but all the backgrounds are the same. I wish I had checked out the forums before wasting a credit on it. Really disappointed

I went over all the 5 star ratings and thought I must be losing it. Except for the totally adorable dog there was nothing I liked. I had no trouble deleting it.The map was no help,I had to go to the strategy guide a number of times and the HOS's drove me nuts. I'm happy for all you 5 star raters but I totally agree with the comments from the only other 2 star rater. The one scene where I had to reconstruct faces and listen to a bio of all the characters was just plain time wasting and gave me no indication of how the entire game would play out.If the free trial had let me play the full hour I might have given a different review and actually bought the game.But I'm not willing to waste time or money on what was given me to play in the trial run
I don't recommend this game.

I am getting to the point where I don't even want to buy a game with hidden object scenes so what a gem of a game. You still have scenes where you do have to collect objects but the format is different and refreshing. I used a coupon for this game so it was a real deal. Great Job from the Big Fish Team and many thanks.
