played on casual. didn't use sound. hints/skip charge fast. hints show you what direction to go. there is a journal. graphics are extremely good!!! i like this series. they should all be played. i don't believe any of the games would disappoint. i can't wait for the next one and i am sure there will be another.
the HO scenes were dark and hard to see objects and i have been playing games with lighter HO scenes so i had a little trouble there. played casual. hint/skip took a while to charge. it wasn't unusually long, though. a lot of back and forth with no map. there is a journal. it does record things that are important. you really have to think about what to do sometimes. the hints don't tell you necessarily what to do, just where to do it. the music, what little i heard was expected for this type of game the ending is a set-up for another one.
i played casual. hints recharged normally. a journal. it made me think. i had to check the walkthrough a few times. i try not to do that but i tried and just couldn't figure out a few things. it led you to believe that there will be another.
it isn't so easy that younger kids can easily play it. the items in the HO scenes are sometimes hard to find because they are so well-camouflaged. the hint button takes 1 minute to recharge and that is why some kids will get impatient. there are no mini games, but there are HO scenes within the other HO scenes. it really doesn't take long to play. your family won a trip to "the price is nice" show and this is your adventure in going there and what you do before the show and then playing on the show.
if you don't like spiders you may not want to play this one. i don't mind them and there were a few scenes that gave me the creeps. the graphics are good and what i heard of the music it was a typical mystery tune. hint and skip charge pretty fast. the hints tell you where to go and you have a map and a journal. there is a lot of back and forth. it is a fun game. the mechanical spiders take over and wrap people up in a web and that is what got to me, i think. good game, though! there are 3 level and i played casual. some of the mini games were easy and some harder.
you have lost your memory and so you take pictures as you go and that is how you can move from one place to another. that is there in place of a map. there is a journal. the HO scenes are not too crowded and there is a lot of back and forth but with the pictures and the photo album it is not too bad. graphics were good. didn't have sound on. good game. i played on casual. hint/skip buttons charge pretty fast.
the graphics were clear and the hint/skip charged quickly, but i didn't really like it and i don't know why. you are a man looking for his daughter and you meet up with vampires in this place. no map but the hints do this for you. there is a journal. i played on casual. skipped most of the mini games. they took some thought. the music was the usual for this kind of game. i didn't listen too long. not really a bad game but i have played better.
i really liked this game. the hints walk you through it if you need it. they tell where to go and there is a map for you to locate the place. the clues for some of the things are "right there" where you need them. not hiding anywhere. didn't hear too much of the sound but the graphics are very clear!!!!
it is not for those that get bored easily. it is repetitive as far as what you do, but again, i loved it. you restore the inside of an b & b by the sea and then spruce up the outside with the money you earn as you restore. i loved the charming lady that worked for me. she walks with hips and arms swaying and it is so funny. she is elderly and dressed in one of those old southern belle dresses. there is 3 levels for each roon that you need to restore. you have to find magnifying glasses to earn hints, but the graphics were so clear i didn't need many hints and never ran out. don't know what happens if you do. there are 2 levels. i played relaxed.
you are looking for your son that has been taken by a mad scientist. many HO scenes and the hints tell you where to go in the easiest mode. hint and skip charge pretty fast. no map but there is a journal/diary. not a big area to cover, but there is back and forth a good bit, but i have played much worse.
