I enjoyed playing the demo and time flew by rather quickly. I played in hardcore mode, so I found myself scratching my head on some of the mini games.
I will buy as a SE, but not a CE.
I recommend this game!

This is a very mythical, dreamy type game. The voice-over, although she has a pretty accent, can get a little annoying. Some of the characters are funny, but not enough to make the game a buy. I played expert mode, still has hints if needed, and wasn't too difficult. There is a lot of back and forth, which I don't mind, but some players dislike it.
I found myself waiting for the trial to be over, so it is not a buy for me.
I don't recommend this game.

I am a huge fan of the Redemption series and this one did not disappoint. I played expert mode. It was like having three games in one because of the three corpses and having to solve their soul-stealing crimes. I could have played this all day, every day! Unfortunately, the game did end and left me wanting more right away.....
ERS game developers are amazing.
Oh, and a wonderful surprise half way through the game to have hidden object scenes, which I didn't think this game had at first. LOVE
I recommend this game!

I really wanted to love this game, but it didn't meet the expectations I had hoped for.
Features: different play modes, cursor options, tutorial on/off, smooth/quick screen switch, and good opening scene
I personally thought the game was boring.
I don't recommend this game.

Another fantastic game from ERS developers! For people who are unaware, this is not a typical HOG game. There are no HOS in this. It is really a great adventure game. I love the creatures!!!
I thought the graphics were incredible and the voice-overs, which usually annoy me, were good. I did get a little tired of them telling me to back off..over and over again. I get it, you don't want me here! Other than that, awesome game and I will buy!!
I recommend this game!

I am not a fan. I think it was too repetitive, graphics were elementary, and did not keep my attention at all. I found myself waiting for the trial to end so I could be lifted from my misery. Not a time management game as someone else said. Even when the time runs out, you're still trying to finish the task. The large green arrows on the game board are annoying.
I don't recommend this game.

The first thing I noticed about this game was that you had to click the item bar to use anything. Typically, you place your mouse near the item bar and it appears, then disappears when you move away....seems insignificant, but can be annoying.
I played expert, as I do all my games, and could not attach myself to this one. It was too dry for me; meaning it didn't have enough grime in it. Clean graphics, fairly easy for me.
Not a buy.
I don't recommend this game.

I think this game is great for children, but not for an adult who is looking to occupy your mind. I prefer my games to have challenge and to keep my mind quick. I think this game made me a little dumb. Oh well. On to the next!
I don't recommend this game.

I am a HUGE fan of Redemption Cemetery games.....but what happened here? I was not happy with this one at all. I don't think it even related to the other games in the series. I'm screaming noooooo inside. :-(
I don't recommend this game.

I was hoping to like this game, but it just wasn't worth a buy for me. I played the expert mode. I really don't like that to back out of a scene you see an "up" arrow. There weren't that many HOS, so that part was disappointing. It would have been nice to get a balance between looking for items and HOS in the game.
Overall, eh.
I don't recommend this game.
