This game offers 3 modes of play, which is good. The reason I didn't care for it was I had to click several times for the game to load and move to another place. I had troubles finding the things I needed to complete a task, the hint button wasn't as much help as it should have been. The instructions were to vague except for the expert game player.
I don't recommend this game.

Although you must match 3, if you don't really think about it, you will never make it all the way through. I've gone through twice. Hint: never run out of oxygen, and don't buy anything until the nearly end of the game. There are at least 140 levels to play.
I recommend this game!

This game is not the usual errie vampire game. Lot's of mini-puzzles to do and they are fun. Only 1 I couldn't figure out. You have to find the heir to the castle. The butler is just a hoot. There are vampires and ghosts including the family dog. I love this game and have played it many many times.
I recommend this game!

I own another I SPY game, which is so much better than this one. The graphics are unclear and grainy. Very slow to load, must wait until the naration is finished before picking up another object.
Because mainly of the graphics this was not an enjoyable game to me.
I don't recommend this game.

This game is pretty much a straight HOG with a few puzzles. The hints charge in a moderate amount of time. It seemed each hog scene had at least one item so obscure it needed a hint to find. All in all, pretty much a boring game.
I don't recommend this game.

This game is mix of hidden objects and adventure. The hidden objects are not hidden in a junk pile, and they are large enough and clear enough to find. You have a mix of hidden objects and an outline of things to look for. If you have played Dreamland and liked it, you will like this game too. They are very similar.

Mr. Jones has a cemetary and customers come and want or hate an item or items, and don't want them near the grave. You decide how you want your area to look. This game lets you be creative. The only drawback is his girfriend Mimi. She calls and leaves messages about every 5th day. I mute the computer when I see the phone ringing. Other than that, I have played and enjoyed this game for a long time.
I recommend this game!

I liked this game because as you meet your goals you get to choose items to upgrade the resturant you are working in. It was fun to se the whole place come together. I owned this game for a few years and still play today. Great game.
