Really cute game.. I like that it is timed.
I gave it 4 stars but a part of me wanted to give it 3 stars. Because, when i pick berries and chop trees i want the food and wood to register immediately and not have to mouse over stuff. I also don't care about having to hire workers for the factories.
So, it is a NO buy for me because of this. But, I know there are people that will love this game.. so do try it for yourself.
I recommend this game!

Positives... Beautiful graphics.. 3d world.
Negatives... I really wanted to love this game.. But, i gave up.. too much dialogue. If you get past that.. you may love the game. I quit after 20 minutes... so maybe i didn't give it enough of a chance. So, i will recommend the game.
The game designers would probably have a winner if they just tailor down the chatting, by about 90%.
I recommend this game!

Positives:
Story-line is fine
Different with a mechanical and space theme
You feel like you are in a 3d world
I wanted to give this game a 3.5 stars.. because of the following.
Negatives:
Map - could not jump to different places. This game made you run back and forth a little bit to much.
HOS - were Ok, but they make you play the same scene a few times.
All and all, I enjoyed the game and glad i bought it.
I recommend this game!

I tried the game because of the good reviews from other people. Because, it didn't look like a game I would be interested in. But, it is so absurd and addicting - I just couldn't resist. You meet strange people on the way and help them with their needs and sometimes they pay you which, helps you buy items to help someone else.
The map helps you find out where you are... I wish the map could be used in Tele-porting one-self to different areas.. But, maybe that would be to easy. I also take my own notes because the journal doesn't keep track of what address goes with which road. That is annoying.
Very addicting and long game and you never know who you are going to run into... it is fun and different.
I recommend this game!

Match 3, Match 3, Match 3... In one hour, i virtually got no where with the plot, because of way to many Match 3 games. Because of this it is a no buy for me! The match 3 games had very little bells and whistles and was boring to me. On the plus side. I have a new appreciation for Opera and the graphics are good.
I don't recommend this game.

I like solving riddles and puzzles. The cartoon stuff is fun... But, i spent half my time reading and I also don't like having to click on the compass to show where I can navigate too! So, it is a no-buy for me. I recommend that people try it out for themselves, though!
For me, eliminate most of the dialogue and lose the compass.
I recommend this game!

I usually buy "dark" games, but this is a nice break from that. I have played the other Snark games... If i remember right they were a little bit more crisp on the graphics. Maybe, they are trying to save memory..
I would prefer less "talk or reading", and more play... But I had a lot of fun with it and it was decent length game. And, no HOS scenes just find and use objects through out the game... And you use everything you find.. i like that!!!
I recommend this game!

In the game there are little balls of different colors you can get. When you collect two balls it will show you which colors you have down at the bottom of the screen. The color of the balls determine what color your ammunition is! Now, you can shoot things that are the same color by right clicking your mouse.
if have the wrong color balls down at the bottom of the screen, just click on what you want to get rid of and now you will be able to collect the right colored ball.
Also, you can eat fruit this will keep your energy bar full at the top of the screen.. you need this full to shoot your ammunition.
I hope this helps some people.. the game can be a little bit frustrating but fun. I just played the demo and still considering whether to buy it or not. Wished the demo lasted longer.
I recommend this game!

I don't like that it took me over half of the demo to just get out of the house. I don't like to many sparkles and arrows pointing to items. I really like the graphics and placing items in the circles (not sure what that is called). I don't like that this game has only one skill level.
As i was playing i forgot that the object to the game is to get the son's soul back.
I recommend the game to some people. I am still trying to decide whether I want to buy it or not..
I recommend this game!

Return once more to the haunted grounds of Ravenhearst Manor to uncover new details about this poignant saga. What you find could very well be the final chapter of this riveting story-if you escape.

Pushing the envelope! Highly creative! I can see why some people are disturbed by some of the stuff, like the baby being sucked through the tube. The Maternity ward was somewhat irritating to me, mainly the sounds! The madman is disturbing and a product of a bad childhood. Very realistic, because you know there are people out there that are like that!!! All and all it is one of the most interesting games that I have played.
I recommend this game!
