Played 40 minutes casual, I see that we can't mention the name of the devs so I'll just say they're new to me.
-3 game play modes, casual, advanced, hard, you can swap from one to another while playing
- Integrated SG top left of your screen, it stays on the page you leave. It only shows 2 chapters
- Voice-overs, music OK
- Note book
- No map
- Hint is an owl, less than a minute to refill, not too useful outside H0, at least tells you there's nothing to do where you are
- Skip button
- HO, a lot of them, you don't interact. Some of them are pretty dark and objects are not easy to spot.
- Mini games not over difficult (only had one in 40 minutes)
- Very good graphics
Long time I hadn't seen a car stopped by a ghost !! Same old story of a ghost (?) cursing a family. The game looks easy to play, enjoyable. A buy.
I recommend this game!

Played 50 minutes, regular.
- SG only shows 4 chapters in the sample
- Integrated SG which stays on the page you leave
- 3 modes, Regular, Hard, Expert
- Notebook
- No map
- Voice overs
- Real live characters
- Extremely good graphics
- Hint (fills quickly reg mode) and skip button, takes longer to the skip button to refill
- Very interesting H0, you don't only interact, you get mini puzzles in them
- Good mini games if nothing very new
- You're given a crow at the beginning of the game, it can get for you objects out of reach.
[color=#ffffff]-[/color] You've got to find a special symbol to activate it.
- You travel through portal to interact in the past
In order to escape an evil island, you must solve/mend three crimes that happened in the past. Interesting story. Looks like a good game, a buy for me.
I recommend this game!

Played 30 minutes, casual

- As in the first one you collect flowers, they give you access to a shop where you can buy furniture for your office (on the main menu)
- You get rewards for using not hints in a H0 or not skipping a mini game
- Achievements can be seen on the main menu
- Integrated SG

- H0, clear, you don't interact
- Interesting, new mini games (only played one)
- Hint and skip button, fill fast casual. Hint useful outside H0
- Very good "life" sound and voice-overs

Played 30 minutes of the game and after reading the other really bad reviews, I started to wonder if it had been worth downloading.
In fact I'm sure quite a lot of fishies will enjoy it.
Only one game play mode.
Hint refills quickly.
You have to find a lot of objects, either in H0 or all over rooms (silhouettes).
You can move to either side of the room to see more. Items are sometimes difficult to spot, looking like the background.
Graphics are pretty good.
Annoying thing, texts keep appearing if you make a wrong click.
An enjoyable game for straight H0G lovers, well worth a punch card credit. If you were expecting something better, re read Jane Austin's book..... ;)

Nearly played the whole demo, casual as always for demos
- 9 chapters + bonus play
- Integrated SG
- Notebook
- Map, you can jump from one place to another, shows areas of interest
- Voice-over and very realistic life "sounds"
- Hint refills quickly (casual) and is useful outside HO
- Skip button
- Mini games pretty easy
- H0, you interact, sometimes need 2 objects to get one
- Good clear graphics
- Story...well you'll see !!
Definitely not keen on SF (though I was glad that even in an advanced civilization you still needed sticky tape and tweezers...) so this game is not a buy for me.And I found the game really easy, but I'm sure a lot of fishies will enjoy it.
I recommend this game!

Played the whole sample, casual.
- 2 gameplay modes casual, expert
- Sample of one chapter of the game, no idea about the length
- Notebook
- No map
- Integrated SG which stays on the page you leave :thumbup:
- Voiceovers
- Real live acors
- Music loud and over present, turned it off
- Hint button useful outside H0
- Skip button
- Good mini games not too difficult (nothing very new though)
- H0, you interact, you have to find one object to complete another. VERY DARK which makes objects difficult to spot.
- Very good graphics
Interesting story, it's a shame that the game is so dark, went to options but couldn't do a thing about it. Not over difficult up to what I've played. Most probably a buy, the dark scenes (I mean the color) make me hesitate a bit, quite tiring for the eyes. Good game.
I recommend this game!
