Nice game for those of us having a very hot summer. You bring your girlfriend home to meet mom and mom gets upset and whisks her away in some ice cloud. The characters are likeable. Except for mom at this point. Sometimes the scenes jump around on you leaving you scratching your head a bit - but it works out well. you have a powerful amulet and she has what she has - some ability to manipulate ice. This crazy woman has your sister and nothing is going to stop you from bringing her back together with her true love. Graphics are nice. Mini games are different and not very difficult. Music is decent. Accents on Inuit are interesting. The story moves at kind of quick clip but manages to keep your interest peaked. There are collectibles. I think you wil like the minigames and the interactive HOGS. this game is half off right now.
I recommend this game!

This game is "just" okay in my book. Graphics, music, HOGs - all okay. Got a little tired of jumping into the shadow realm and then back into the real world. Couldn't understand why the mouths moved sometimes with the dialogue but not always.
I recommend this game!

Way to go Eipix. Beautiful game. Great graphics, great music and appropriate for each scene; great voice overs, great storyline. The HOGs are interactive. You have collectibles. You have morphing objects. They left nothing out.
I recommend this game!

A cleaning lady. whose neighbor has seen a dead man, get's involved in finding out what she can. Very slow moving. Doesn't really make much sense. The dialogue is about as stiff as I've every run across. It may have gotten better if I could have withstood even finishing the demo - which I did not.
I don't recommend this game.

Graphics were decent. Music was okay, Voice overs were okay. Story line was okay. The only frustration with this game was you would have things in your inventory to get the job done, but it wasn't the item for that particular job. Like you have a sword but cannot cut stitching in a cushion. You have to wait for scissors. You do have collectibles and morphing objects - just like in Collector's Editions. No bonus play and no strategy guide - but I don't think you will need the guide. Some of the games may be a little confusing but you'll figure them out.
I recommend this game!

This game was okay. Graphics were pretty decent. It was just a little too sedate for me. I would recommend this game to beginners, not intermediate or expert level players.
I don't recommend this game.

An incredible game. Beautiful graphics, beautiful music that changes appropriately with each scene, incredible voice overs, new and clever mini games, thoughtful and interactive HOGs, very compelling storyline, morphing objects. Mad Head leads the pack of best game of the year with this one.
I recommend this game!

This game was not up to the Mystery Trackers' usually good standards. Moving around in this game was a little choppy. Music was not very good. It felt like an old game with a few modern touches - like morphing objects. I liked the comments from the main character but the rest of the characters dialogue was quite stiff. This might be a game you play when they haven't come out with a decent CE for a while and you are desperate.
I don't recommend this game.
From the makers of the Rite of Passage series comes a ground-breaking new series that's as creepy as it gets.

Haven't played a game this good in a long while. The story line is great. The voice overs are incredibly well done. The graphics go well with the overall feel of the story. Very well done. Definitely dark. No fairies in this psycho thriller.
I recommend this game!

This game was well done. Graphics were decent, voice overs were great, music was good. The cool thing about this game is that there are 3 games in one. Lots of game play. Interactive HOGs, clever mini games. The only thing this game missed was morphing objects, but there is so many other things going on, you barely miss it.
I recommend this game!
