I replayed this game and was impressed by the graphics. The audio was lacking or it would have been a solid five in that category. The level of challenge was minimal at times as some puzzles finished themselves without much intervention on my part.
I recommend this game!

Mystery of the Ancients: Curse of the Black Water Collector's Edition
Uncover Poseidon’s ancient secrets hidden under the town of Black Water!
I replayed this game and was thrilled. Were it not for the humans in this game I would have rated it higher. The artistic interpretation of mythical creatures was superb but the human component was forced and odd.
I recommend this game!

Dark Arcana: The Carnival
Find the woman who disappears in the Hall of Mirrors. Investigate two worlds: the Carnivals of Good and Evil!
I enjoyed this game. The puzzles were too repetitious as were the HOS. The artwork was occasionally muddled though not always which leads me to believe that there were several contributors and not all of them were as good as others.
The main game was far superior to the bonus play so I recommend the SE!

Reincarnations: Uncover the Past Collector's Edition
Jane and Dr. Herzle have made a breakthrough in reincarnation studies but their hard work is compromised when Jane is kidnapped!
I am replaying games that I own and could not remember this. The HOS were plentiful but the game itself was not much fun. I think there has been a lot of progress since this game was developed. It just felt so amateur comparatively.
I don't recommend this game.

Fantastic Creations: House of Brass Collector's Edition
Escape an underground vault of clockwork wonders with the help of its mysterious and eccentric inventor in Fantastic Creations: House of Brass!
I was so anxious to take part in the sale "Buy One Get One Free" that I did not remember I had played only a few minutes of the Demo when it was originally released and hated it. I should have done more research. Yes, it was free but it was awful! Edwin's voice and the ridiculous number of repeat puzzles made me cringe. By the end I was skipping them with abandon, which I never do. The problem was also that I had not picked casual so I had to wait an interminable amount of time before I could hit skip.
I really tried. Maybe it was me but I felt it was disjointed. I was frustrated more than entertained. Also, I do not care for the style of fuzzy drab artwork. I am going to wait for the SE version.
I don't recommend this game.

Grim Tales: The Vengeance Collector's Edition
When his sister is murdered, you must prove your nephew’s innocence!
I just played this for the second time. I finished the Tales of Terror: House on the Hill and wanted to remember why I liked this game so much more.
It was more challenging and void of the handholding I felt in House on the Hill. It did not even have a map. There were moments of muddiness in the HOS but all told it was enjoyable throughout.
