This is a great sequel to Abra Academy. Visually its much easier to find the objects (still on the small side but much less eye strain). The music fit but tended to repeat so turned it down under options. Still as one of the older games it has great value and is fun for those who are beginners or just starting off. The art is wonderful for a cartoon hog and the whole thing is very cute.
I recommend this game!

this is a really cute game. First played demo when I first joined BFG. I would love this game even more if I didn't get eye strain and a headache looking for the matches and some of the items that are so small that i need a magnifying glass. The concept is great and really enjoy replaying the demo every so often. It is definitely an older game but it still has cute items and is fun.
I recommend this game!

I enjoyed this game and liked the variance of the pictures and the time limit. The music unfortunately got very annoying and i think its now stuck in my brain until i listen to something else. I liked that you started out fairly easy and as the pictures went on and the time lessened it kept it fairly exciting to beat the clock. This is definitely a hand and eye coordination game.
I recommend this game!

Didn't enjoy this hog. The items were difficult to see and find. The watercolor pictures were nice. I got bored very quickly and didn't make it through the first ten minutes of game. Didn't hold my interest very long.
I don't recommend this game.

Older game, only one level, some objects hard to see and cartoon animation. Interesting games, not sophisticated but easy to follow, didn't get bored with demo, hint button worked fine but lost points when used. It is a great beginners game and it was a change of pace from the intense games that are now available. Definitely more family oriented. Not a bad game at all.
I recommend this game!

This game is very cute. It is filled with mini games and hidden objects. It is any one of the original games I played and even though the games have become more sophisticated and with more complex story lines, this game is an easy way to pass the time. Yes, it is a cartoon based game but it is still has charm and fun.
I recommend this game!

Played demo in casual mode as it offers two levels. The hint button filled on a normal basis and i liked the sonar guide. The hos were well done and most of the objects were easy to find. I also liked the integrated strategy guide but as i only used it once I have no idea if it stays or goes back, but i do like the fact it has chapters you can easily access. The art and music were not annoying and blended into the story so that it was there but underlying and didn't interfere. The art was wonderful and particularly liked the sparkling effect of the coral and barnacles that were so much part of the scenery. It was not scary but had a nice feel to the whole game. The storyline was good and for the -part I completed did not get bored. Overall this was an excellent game
I recommend this game!

This is a very entertaining game. I found it very easy to follow. The hint button worked at an average rate. The strategy guide stays where it was last used. The music and art if very well done and quite beautiful. The hos were very different where there were not many objects to pick up but a lot of interation with other objects that were there. It took a bit but once I started it was hard to stop when the demo was over. Will definitely buy this game.

This was an interesting game but the storyline was hard to follow or a little lacking. The brightness had to be adjusted as it was a little on the dark side. There were a lot of hos in the short period of time and the objects when I first got them seemed rather useless. I didn't realize that there were morphing objects until I accidently clicked on my computer and then went back to find them. The morphing was more appearing and disappearing than it changing into a different object. I liked that there was a strategy guide attached and it stayed where I left off instead of having to redo each time. The hint button filled on an average time. The music was not an issue as I turned it and the sound down when I started. It took me a while to get into the game and once I got into it, was more interesting. Not a bad game and I recommend it.

This was not a bad game. I liked it. The storyline was slow to get started and finding the objects were relatively simple to find. I particularly disliked the arrow with the hand or magnifying at the backside of the arrow and trying to decide if I had it in the right place. Following where to go next was nice and I also liked the "there is nothing left to do here" acknowledgement. I will probably buy it at some point in time.
I recommend this game!
