Take on new time management challenges and help three young archaeologists unearth the mysteries of the past and piece together the story of the brave Xi Niu!
I haven't written a review for a game in a long time. But, with Adam Wolfe I felt I needed to.
I'm an adventure gamer. I love the adventure games! I'm really tired with the hidden object games. To me, it feels like lack of imagination, character interaction, exploration, etc. I loved the old point and click games.
That said, this isn't a point and click, BUT it has the feel of an adventure game with a true storyline behind it. There are some hidden object scenes, but it's not every room, and it's not all of the time. I've played the first Adam Wolfe and now this one, and I have loved them both! I'm hoping more of these, or more like them come out soon.
If you like adventure games like me, don't miss this one!

I don't normally leave game reviews, but I felt compelled to do so with this one. I've been a game player since the 80s and have played many, many games. This has got to be one of the most spooky games I've played. It reminds me of a Phantasmagoria (if you can remember that game), type of fear. But, more modern and even more filled with horrors.
Very fun though! I'm not a big fan of HOG, I like adventure games without them. But, this one has them where it isn't at every turn, which is a nice change.
Definitely recommended!
I recommend this game!

I loved both of the other Be Rich! games. I was hoping this one would be just as fun. But, they added some extra challenges which makes it less enjoyable and more of a headache. You need to build grocery stores, etc when the buildings demand it. It doesn't matter if you're working on something else at the time, if it isn't done quickly, that entire building ends up abandoned. I've built the commercial properties they demanded directly in front of the building that asked for it, and for whatever reason, it still didn't see it and wasn't good enough. Too frustrating!
I don't recommend this game.

I really enjoy this game (and Fashion Boulevard)! I've played it many times, and it tends to be my "go to" game whenever I want to relax and just enjoy. I love being able to decorate how I like and building the recipes. I wish they would make a follow up game!
I recommend this game!

I love these games. It's so rare to find any actual point and click/talk to the character games anymore! This one was particularly fun I thought because you were able to play as all of her friends as well! And, you really can't beat the price on it here!
I recommend this game!

This is a point and click, adventure game. It is like the old Sierra games which I miss so much! No hidden objects, just good ol', use your mind, talk to the characters and figure out what to do. Fun and addicting!
