The story line is OK but the game is not very logical. Had to use the map and hints a lot since there is no way to know where to go next most of the time. HOS were weird. Often you had to find bits of things which made it difficult to find them sometimes since the pictures they showed for items to find were so small and they were just different. Never seen HOS like these before. Some of the mini games, I had no idea what they wanted and I had to use the walkthrough to know. I like things that at least give you an idea what is needed. I never was a big fan of most mini games. I play for fun, not to wrack my brain. Generally, it's an OK game for a Daily Deal but I would have hated to have paid full price. If you get it cheap, then it's a good time waster but I wouldn't recommend this game at full price. I can't comment on the music since I turn that off and the graphics are OK but not superb.
I don't recommend this game.

Played the whole SE version and since it's an older game, it's OK but nothing special. It was a Daily Deal so I don't mind, but if I had paid full price for this game, I'd have been upset. I think BF should sell old games like this for way below the price of newer games. As it is they are all the same price unless it's a special or a Daily Deal. It's a good time waster but it's not a memorable game. I don't recommend this game if it's full price. There are way better games for that price. If it's a Daily Deal, then go for it.
I don't recommend this game.
Every second counts in this breathtaking paranormal adventure!

I bought this based on the many 5 star reviews and after playing the demo. It turned out to be a pretty good game. Not a lot of HOS but it had some good mini games which for me means I don't have to sprain my brain too much to do them. The graphics were pretty good even though the characters show that this is an older game. Mouths don't move, but I don't care about that, as long as the game is good. I enjoyed this game and will play it again some time.
I recommend this game!

I liked this game when I played the trial version and I had to buy it. Especially since it was a Daily Deal. It's an unusual story line and a bit weird but it's a good game. The devs have a really good imagination. It's kind of a mix of sci-fi and fantasy, but the devs made it work. It has a lot of mini games, but most of them are fun and not too hard, which I like. The mini games are different and quite original. I actually enjoyed most of them and I usually don't care much for them. If you can get past the silly story, it's a fun and enjoyable game. Graphics are good and quite colorful. Not like all those games with evil and dark themes with the graphics to match. I can't comment on the music since I play with the music off and the rest of the sound effects off or very low. Good thing there is an interactive map since there is a lot of moving around from place to place. However, sometimes there is no hint of where to go when the work is in one world and you're in another. No biggie. It's a fairly long game too, so well worth the money.
I recommend this game!
All roads lead to Rome! With thousands of years of art, history, and culture on display, it's the perfect destination for your next Big City Adventure.

This is based on the trial version. I don't understand all the high ratings for this game. It looks like a really old game. Maybe in it's day it was a good game but compared to todays standards, it's terrible. I do have to say that whoever placed the objects in the scenes did a really good job. They fit in so well to the scenery, but that's about all I found good about this game. A lot of the objects are really small so only good if you have a big screen. It's strictly hidden object; one set in each city followed by a mini game. Some of the instructions for the mini games are not very informative such as the one depicted in the 3rd picture on this page. It tells us to put words together but it's all just symbols and I couldn't find anything that seemed to work to give me a better idea of what was wanted. All in all, this game is either too old or old fashioned and not worth the money. I wouldn't even want it for free. It's really not very interesting at all.
I don't recommend this game.

First time I come across a game like this one. It's kind of a strange game. Too much talking and you get to pick which question to ask. That's weird in itself. Then you end up turning here and turning there just to end up with not knowing where there is anything you can do. Kitchen has you assembling dinners and the instructions use foreign words and it is not clear what you have to do. Then you go back and walk around again and still can't find what to do to get ahead. There is no hints available and no map. You're supposed to find the lady to allow you on the ship but all I could find was the rude bartender. I disliked this game so much from what I experienced with it that I didn't even finish the trial. It's just too frustrating and confusing. I don't understand all the 5 star reviews. I am uninstalling this game. Not fun at all.
I don't recommend this game.

I didn't think this would be a great game after playing just the demo, but since it was a Daily Deal and the other reviews liked it, I decided to buy it. It's very easy and even the mini games are easy. I don't much like most mini games. I play to relax, not strain by brain cells. Anyway, I actually enjoyed the game. It's a great game for beginners or someone who just wants to take it easy. It's a decent length too. I can't comment on the sound or music since I mute all that. I listen to interviews while playing most of the time. The graphics are OK but the little girl at the beginning needs some work.
I recommend this game!

I'm not a huge fan of match 3 games. Played them when I was a fairly new computer user. Some are OK. I decided to try this one since it's a Daily Deal. Well, no deal for me. It's too hard to distinguish the tiles since they look similar and are too close in color. Too hard on the eyes. Why use muted colors instead of nice bright colors and why not make the tiles bigger? You would think that someone who designs such a game would realize this. Make sure you try the demo before you buy. Some obviously like it. I'm not one of them.
I don't recommend this game.
A puzzle fantasy, inspired by the classic word search game.

I usually always finish the trial version of a game but this one I only played for about 10 minutes and that was enough for me. I hate timed games but this game is even worse since it constantly interrupts you in the middle of making a word and it didn't even take a lot of the words I put in. It's the Daily Special but I wouldn't want it even if it was free. Goes to show not all reviews line up with a persons' own idea of fun. I sure don't understand the 5 star reviews for this game. Always a good idea to do the trial game first. I have played word games before like Bookworm and that one wasn't bad but this one is nothing like that.
I don't recommend this game.

Got this on a daily Deal. Wasn't sure about it but hey, for the price I decided to try it. It turned out to be a really good game and I enjoyed it since it had a good mix of HOS and Mini Games. They were't too hard mostly and I like it that way. I usually don't have the patience for mini games. Graphics were good and not dark like some games. I like to be able to see the things and not have to click randomly. There's quite a bit of back and forth but the map solves that. Some of the HOS are in a smaller screen but easy enough to see. Lots of interactive ones too. The story line was fantasy but then aren't most games? It has a surprise ending too. All in all a good buy, especially for $3.05. It is worth the regular price. Plus it's a pretty long game so you get your moneys worth.
I recommend this game!
