This has everything I love..bright colours, interesting characters, awesome mini games; which are hard enough to challenge, but not so hard you become frustrated..
It also has the *BEST** HOS I've ever seen in a hidden object game, I've never seen so much variety. I will be buying more from this developer..
There is nothing I dislike, I even left the music on which is unusual for me..
To the developer - please please please make more of this quality.
I recommend this game!

There really isn't a lot to say about this game except buy it...I did.
It really has everything:
A spectacular storyline - possibly the best I've seen on here.
Wonderful hand drawn graphics
A mix of easy and challenging puzzles.
A variety of decent HOS.
A great bonus game which actually adds to the storyline.
Did I mention the storyline? it's engrossing, and the puzzles and HOSs actually coincide with the storyline which really makes for a pleasant change.
Brilliant.
I recommend this game!

Most people have already done in depth reviews so I'm just going to say that this game is beautiful - complete eye candy. The artist/s are incredibly talented and imaginative and I can see myself playing this over and over just to see more of the cutest characters and scenes I've seen in a game.
I was enthralled from start to finish.
More please.
I recommend this game!

I played for five minutes and then purchased. I love everything, but the tanks with the funny 3d fish which actually interact with you was the real hook..
I've decorated three tanks so far, and still enjoying it.
Well done.

I loved the games virtual villagers, but hated the slow speed, so it's refreshing to have a similar genre of game that doesn't have you staring at the screen willing the game to speed up..
There is plenty to do, cute characters, lovely cartoon graphics and unobtrusive music.
I bought the game five minutes into the demo.
I recommend this game!

I bought this without playing the demo as I adored the first two..
I wish I hadn't.
To many aspects of the game which were my least favourites in the first two played too big a part in this one..
Catching things..and memory games...not my type of thing at all.
Although..everything I liked about the first two were still there, so I don't feel like I've wasted my money.
I recommend playing the demo first.
I don't recommend this game.

Seriously..
I'm an artist myself so I can fully appreciated the hours of work that has gone into this beautiful game. I would love to know which artist the developers use as I'm finding that out of all the games I own, they seem to make the prettiest graphics.
Although, that said..it's also a very nice game..love the HO scenes the best..junk piles always seem very out of place to me - in any game, and this doesn't have any.
The game has a map, but you have to earn it..
The puzzles are good..not too challenging so you end up skipping in frustration..
And the voice overs are nice with not too many of them. I read faster than people talk so I find them annoying sometimes.
All in all, a worthwhile game to add to my ever growing collection.
Nice one guys.
I recommend this game!

I purchased the CE immediately after finishing the demo..I was hooked on the story by then.
This game is unique in a couple of ways..they've introduced a new way of object finding for example, and I enjoyed that..
It's a great length, and the bonus content is integrated into the game..
The music is lovely, the characters have voice-overs, and the sound effects are timely and pertinent.
AND there is a click-able map!!! whoo hoo!!!
The only beefs I had were the puzzles were a bit too easy..I was able to solve all of them without help..
Plus some of the puzzles required such strict placement, you thought you had the wrong item even when you didn't..
Other than that, it's a very enjoyable, worthwhile game.
I recommend this game!

But it's just too talky for me..click some objects, listen to more talking..click some objects..talk talk talk.
Warranted, the characters are charming, especially the little demon companion...and the graphics are gorgeous..
But if you're looking for lovely graphics, nice game play, plenty of HO to find...and don't mind all the talking..
