I had hoped that this series of games had improved, but I literally only completed one level of the demo before quitting and deleting.
Had to turn the sound off, and didn't like the graphics.
Couldn't see why it was being touted as a CE game, when I could see no extras
I don't recommend this game.

It was a nice enough game, but I only got through 30 mins of the demo before giving up.
I found the game play incredibly slow, and too intricate in places. It looked stunning, but like so many games, if you are going to set it in a location, make sure that location is consistent. One zone quite clearly had Big Ben in the background, but we were being asked to get into a "mall" - details like that just bug me as a player!
Definitely play the demo for yourself, but this one was not on my Christmas list....
I don't recommend this game.

I gave up on the demo after 15 minutes, so it may have improved after that, but the pace was so slow and it was very boring, and I didn't want to waste any more of my time on it.
I usually play in "custom" mode on these sorts of games, but there was no way to turn off the hint and skip option.
The collectibles were far too easy to find, and the puzzles incredibly easy.
The storyline has been done so many times. I just didn't find anything new or exciting about the game.
It wasn't bad, just not for me..
I don't recommend this game.

I'm a big fan of Match 3 games, so always play the newest ones.
I'm just left feeling a bit confused by the whole experience of playing this one.
What's the storyline? Why am I collecting gold coins? (In the hour's trial, I saw nothing to "spend" them on).
It's very obviously stolen a lot of concepts from Aladdin - the characters are VERY similar.
There doesn't seem to be much challenge to this - the levels I played in the trial all had unlimited moves and time limits. Maybe this changes in the later levels that I didn't reach in the hour.
It is a way to spend an hour when bored, but I won't be buying it.
I don't recommend this game.

Sadly, I knew within a few minutes that this game was not for me... But I played the hour's demo just to see if it improved.
Firstly, the spelling errors drove me mad! One of the HOPS has you looking for "strow" and I wasted ages before I realised it meant "straw".
The puzzles were varied, and ok, but became repetitive after a short while.
I found that I didn't really care about the storyline or the characters, and each location only had a couple of basic things to do before you're hurtled onto the next one.
Not for me!
I don't recommend this game.

I love the "Emily" series of time management games, so was really looking forward to playing this hidden object offspring... Sadly, I was disappointed.
Some of the objects are almost impossible to find without a hint, so gameplay is incredibly slow and frustrating, and I massively struggled with completing the bonus games with a time limit, due to the screen being zoomed in.
I really wanted this to be a great game, as the storyline had promise, but I gave up and deleted it before the end of the demo as I was so frustrated with it...

I love M3 games, and am always excited to try a new one out... I just found this one pointless. I wasn't achieving anything by playing yet another identical level, and buying the power-ups was all a bit odd...
It would be ok for some mindless distraction for a while, but I got bored very quickly, and gave up after ten mins.
The graphics were fairly basic and looked cheap...
Not for me, I'm afraid!
I don't recommend this game.

I barely got through the free trial for this.... It was incredibly frustrating to play.
It could have been so much enjoyable if there were up and down arrows as well as the ones on the sides. Very often I was forced to waste moves, and it took me some time to work out what to do to complete a level.
There was no real storyline, and I suspect it would have been several levels of the same...
I don't recommend this game.

I really wanted to like this game - the storyline had a lot of promise. Firstly, I was having technical issues with the sound - the voices didn't match up with the movement of the characters lips, but I think that is just my Mac
Secondly, is this supposed to be set in the UK? Because if so, there were a lot of details wrong.... the police uniforms, the taxi in the beginning film, for example. There were a lot of mildly annoying Americanisms which seemed out of place if this was supposed to be the UK.
I found the challenges interesting, but ended up playing the Mahjong instead of the HO - and all the Mahjong games were unsolvable without the tiles having to be shuffled. Other puzzles were just very easy.
I don't know why, but I found it strange to have to punch a window in, basically to steal a rivet gun... and cutting up a seemingly valuable painting (when there is another character in the room) without being reprimanded was just odd.
The game had a very slow pace. Admittedly, I only played the demo, but it's not one for me.
I don't recommend this game.

I got ten minutes into the demo before giving up....
The graphics were ok, and the facts about Lewis Carroll were interesting, but the HOPs were a let down. I'm normally pretty good at these games, but I had to use the hint three times on the very first HOP as it was nigh on impossible to find certain items.
It might have got better if I had stuck with it, but I was so bored of it, that I just gave up.
I don't recommend this game.
