I wanted something bright and holiday themed for the Xmas week at home. This fit the bill perfectly. Great story - good graphics and games. Really enjoyed!
I recommend this game!

I have to admit I used to get annoyed at having to leave two or more unfinished puzzles behind in a room and moving through the game to find the right piece. It was a lot of backtracking but now I seem to like it and this game is a master of "it might be quite a while until you find that answer"! The game is long, which I love - the puzzles are good (nice mix of hard and not so hard) and the story is engaging. Probably my favorite game this year!
I recommend this game!

For a gaming site that has so many outstanding games AND plays host to truly creative and innovative software/game development companies - I am truly surprised that Big Fish would put their name on this. Really, really sloppy development work and poor gaming value.

I bought this game a few years ago and then went on vacation and never played it. Found it in my purchase archive and re-installed it. This is one of the worst games I've ever played. It has a lot of annoying "ballon" dialogue and it is badly engineered. You will collect parts of a puzzle - it will tell you have all the parts you need but when you try to solve the puzzle it tells you are missing parts. Help button is NO help - it says you "are done" in this area even though you haven't finished any of the tasks. Waste of time and money.
