It seems that the only reason every one liked this game is because it has morfing items, cards, and origami to find. This isn't enough to make me get the warm fuzzies.
The game was so easy they had to put these other things in just to jazz it up. It didn't work for me. The items were easy to find too.
I don't recommend this game.

This game is a bit campy. It's still good, not great, but good.
I really don't like a lot of chattyness in a game. And this one has a lot of it. But as I became more involved in the game, I didn't notice it so much. The story is good. I'm sick and tired of vampire angst, Twilight and Forever Knight. I'm more of a Nosferato kind of person. I want scaryness.
I recommend this game!

I'm giving this game high marks because I just think it's great.
I just wish I could play it.
Just to let every one know, if you have shaky hands, or have problems clicking fast or accurately, this game will be an excersize in frustration
Well they can't make all of them for me, LOL.
I recommend this game!

I remember doing this kind of HO. I would play for hours. I played for about 40 minutes of this and had to quit. This game is like going from an ipad to a transistor radio. To those that don't know, a transistor radio is an ancient device for listening to music with a lot of static.
The storyline is blagh. I found that I could care less about the people in the story.
I also hate the way they make some areas so light you can't see anything in them.
The only challange was staying with this game as long as I did.
I don't recommend this game.

If you liked gardenscapes, you'll like this one too. Every thing was pretty much the same.
It's just straight HOG all the way through.
I recommend this game!

This is a very average game. I can carry on happly with the rest of my life never having gone past doing the demo.
Some of the HO scenes are junk piles, others okay.
The visuals could have been a bit sharper. But this didn't seem to be a problem with the HOS.
I didn't turn the music down, so it was nonobtrusive.
It's been a while since we had this story line so that's good.
Over all, I'm not buying it, but you might like it. I say, give it a go and deside for your self.
PS
Did anyone else notice the Harry Potter sorting hat?
I don't recommend this game.

I didn't mind the hint button. Even though I was frustrated a few times, I liked being made to think. With most hint buttons I have a tendancy to be lazy and coast. Besides, having the hint button this way makes the game last longer than it would if I were lead by the nose. I feel more of a sence of acomplishment.
One part I really hated was leaving the brother lying in the rain. Only a complete, unfeeling, cold hearted, ahem... would leave him out in the weather!
Not much of a sister. She even gets mad at him for dropping the key when the ground is shaking. Poor guy, knocked out by electricity, and left in the rain.
I know I'm taking this point a bit far, but, sheesh, I thought only the bad guys did this.
Anywho, the game is average. I gave storyline so low for the reasons stated above. I doubt if I will buy it, but do as it pleases you
I don't recommend this game.

This game has as much to do with Joan of Arc as the man in the moon has with a nice ice cream.

I hope every one has read the real history and dosn't take a vehicle to drive a game as the real thing. Don't mind me, I love history, and I get a bit cranky when films and telly change the facts. The only thing the film Braveheart had with William Wallice is that it all took place in Scotland.
Sorry, I'll put away my soapbox now.
The only difference between todays game, and yesterdays is the music is much nicer today.
It's an easy game to play. I think a better childrens game than for adults. When my gold standard is the fishdom games, heroes from the past pails quite a bit.
Still, for what it was, it's an okay game.
Oh, there's the soapbox again.
Check out the music, it won't be what you expect. Found a piece by Richard the lion heart. Most depressing music Iv'e ever heard.
I recommend this game!

I only bought this game because I'm sick in bed and wanted some thing to do that won't strain the brain.
If you played the demo, well, the rest is more of the same.
I think an 8, 9, or 10 year old would love this.
Still it's a decent game, with the exception of the music. It's awful, repeating the same annioying sound bite over and over. Mostly, I just turn the sound low. With this game I turned it off.
Hey, maybe that is the point of the game...see how long you can play, before your head explodes.
I've played for over 2 hours now and haven't bothered with the yeti (anouther annoiying sound bite) , or hardly used the pengins more than once or twice.
I don't recommend this game.
