I enjoyed playing the demo. The game is a higher/lower solitaire with a variety of layouts which keep it interesting. The graphics were colorful and the contrast between the cards and the background was great. I didn't encounter any confusing layouts, at least in the demo. I didn't try the different card decks so I can't speak to those. The music wasn't annoying but that's not a biggie for me anyway. If I don't like it, I just turn it off.
What was annoying was the break in the game play every time you got a bonus. The game pauses while the bonus is displayed. You have to wait for this to go away and then there is another slight pause before you can resume play. This almost made it a complete no go for me. Such a little thing but it can ruin a pretty decent game.
The levels went from super easy one level to almost impossible on the next. I felt like the cards that were dealt were completely random so you just have to keep playing until you get a winnable hand. I had to play several of the levels 4-6 times before I was dealt a passable hand. You can buy items such as jokers, shuffles and mulligans which can help on some of the harder levels.
I've played better solitaire games than this. However, since I only played the demo, I don't know if the game gets harder or if there are any other items you can buy or accumulate as you progress. I haven't decided if I'll get the game or not. I enjoyed the demo, but enough to buy the game? I don't know. I would suggest you try it before you hit the buy button.
I don't recommend this game.
Combine three matching spheres of different sizes and they'll explode off the screen.

I really like this game. It's different than all the usual matching games... . Enough that I really enjoyed playing it and have played it several times through. I was hoping there would be a sequel??? A girl can dream, right?
I recommend this game!
This once magnificent mansion has been a haven of evil spirits. Banish the evil spirits in this match-3 adventure!

I have the previous Cursed House games and love them all. This one is the BEST! The devs made it a lot more challenging with many different tasks required before you can solve each level. Requires a lot more strategy than previous Cursed House versions and I'm lovin' it! New obstacles and elements make this a definite buy for anyone that loves challenging Match 3 games!
Can you escape your fate as a human experiment, or will you comply?

From the very first, this game had my attention. It was so different from everything else I had played. Great story line. Creepy. Loved it and definitely want more like this one. I will comply if you'll bring more like this!
I recommend this game!
The Lost Lands are in danger again... There's only one brave soul who can face the four evil horsemen to save it – you!

I often get bored playing some of these games, but not with this one. Great graphics, great storyline. Overall a superior game. The trial period was over way too soon. This is a must buy for sure!
I recommend this game!
