Most times I enjoy a game for the programming skill and the art work which goes into it. Plot is secondary. But this game is quite different, an interesting plot, and a taunting voiceover that keeps you moving from scene to scene. Even though you have to hop around a bit, you do it with a smile on your face. The HOS are easy.
I did have to resort to the walkthrough at the end, but that's because I am not an expert. You will have fun!

This game provided the right mix of hints and a map to help me finish it. The sequence is fairly standard, get to a lock, find the key, and proceed from there. But the map helped a lot, telling me where the next objective lies.
Graphics were very nice, well drawn, and the programming works fine. You won't be disappointed!
I recommend this game!

This game seems to terminate arbitrarily, based on how fast you can rack up scores. If you hesitate a second, the game times out. It's programmed so that it helps you through the first level, but once you reached level 4, it gives you almost no time to look around. The canned voice is irritating, and serves only to throw off your timing. I made a score of close to 900,000 but only because I was consistently racking up combinations. It was pure luck. Sometimes you'll get "timed out" after 4 minutes. It requires some skill, but mostly patience, because the game is no fun at all.
Luckily the crystal ball tells me where to go and what to do otherwise I would be totally lost. (There is a strategy guide included.) This game has you hopping from one scene to another. Good thing a map is included too. It's about a girl whose mind we're trying to restore. Graphics are not slick but OK. Lots of detail, and the background music is good. A nurse with a face mask gives us updates. It's not linear, so you need the strategy guide OR the crystal ball. Good luck!!
As a dog lover, I didn't care for the theme of this game, but artistically it was well done. Lots of HOS, well done. The puzzles were a bit off the wall, but the designers did a decent job. I appreciate the amount of work that went into drawing and creating the many scenes, but I believe the artists were handicapped by the theme itself. The background music was easy listening.
Once upon a time in the small, undistinguished town of Silentville people started disappearing. Help uncover the mystery behind these disappearances and save the town from a curse!
The designers put a lot of effort into the HOS. Quite different than most games. There is not much plot to speak of. The game is somewhat intuitive, but you need to jump from scene to scene (with help from your HINT button). Where do they find these unusual puzzles? You also need to be somewhat eclectic to finish this game. I got stuck near the end, mixing four beakers of flower powder so I had to access the Walkthrough. I did appreciate the great sound effects.
Lots of scenes with impressive artwork. The designers did a great job. The plot is predictable, but with some humor. Lots of keys to find to open lots of doors, and HOS were fine. This game, with its hints carried me to the end. It did not leave me stuck in limbo. Great job!!
The HOS were simple until I reached one, where no matter which object I picked up, I was told it didn't work. I found this very frustrating and uninstalled the game. At least it was a free game.
