Have finished trial & bought. Have never seen hidden object scenes that were so interactive. Lots to do & lots of fun. If you like HO at all, you have to try this one !

Was searching for a game to play with a 5 year old (who has graduated from Dora) & this is just perfect. Neither one of us wanted to stop. The artwork is so cute & colorful. It is easy to get enough money to buy & you can place (& later move around) the items that you get. We can't wait to play again !!

Based on about 30 minutes of play - good for beginners - would teach them about different aspects of games. As is often the case, makes no sense when the person is trying to get away, that she stops to open a mailbox & go down a well but that is all part of playing.
The thing I found strange (do I say offensive) is that the policewoman who is supposedly the killer was black with a southern accent. The accent should have been generic - am not finished with game so she may be a hero for all I know.. Never have come across something like that in a game before.

Whose idea was it to make a cursor that constantly spins around with no option to turn it off !! If you have motion issues, please download the game first to find out if you can (or want to) deal with these. It also has a flashing arrow at the bottom that is always on. I am going to buy because game seems fun, graphics are colorful and some objects present quite a challenge. I am going to play for short periods - keep my left thumb over the flashing arrow - and keep the cursor off the page until I need to click on an object.
I recommend this game!
Twistingo
The new Twistingo is so revolutionary that it crosses two much-loved genres: old-fashioned bingo and marble-matching games.

I would really like to play this game but on a slower speed. If the marbles came out at a slower rate & did not speed up, it would be fun. However, there is too much tension & alot of clicking so no buy for me. Would like to have more games like this & time management ones with the option to do at "my own rate" - they would still be fun.
I recommend this game!

I really really like this game - very relaxing - no stress - fun things to do. Lots of inventory items to use different places. Artwork is beautiful - some of the best I have seen. Sometimes you are asked for something you have never heard of & finding the items is just hard enough without stressing you out. Game will not let you leave an area if you are not finished. Don't know about replay but looks promising as there would be plenty of HO to find & places to look for crystals.
I recommend this game!

I love to find a game where after playing for a short time, I know that I will be buying it without any hesitation. This is one of those. I have played 1/2 the trial and love it. You will want to keep the sound on for it as the VO is great - very fitting for the characters & the "music" adds to the story. I have played on the easiest level but am going back to try another one. BEWARE: when I clicked hint button, it "did" the problem for me instead of giving me a hint - main reason am going to more difficult level.
I recommend this game!

This game would be okay IF.........
you REALLY like Spot the Difference
you could "catch" the extra clues
you don't mind playing without clues
it didn't freeze
you could play long enough to understand what they wanted you to do with the objects

About me - I rarely delete a game without playing at least the full trial but this one is long gone !!
I don't recommend this game.
Crime Solitaire
Virtually crime-free, the Topley Police Department's statistics for solving crimes are... embarrassing. Turn the department around!

I have played for a few minutes and like a lot but does anyone know how many crimes there are (how long a game?). I would guess it would not have much replay value - at least for the crimes?

The only word - ADORABLE. Such a change from other games & one that an adult & child will very much like playing together. The little "people" are so cute - you will have fun with this one!
Really doesn't matter how long the game is because you will be able to play it again & again !
