I recommend this game!

What can you ask for when you are using a free game coupon? If they seem like good games I'll buy they CE and then I have Free Game Coupons, that I can only use on games like this.
I don't recommend this game.

The voiceovers in this game are patronizing and rather condescending in tone. Maybe it is a game for younger people but I found it boring. The HO's were too easy and the puzzles varied from simplistic to illogical and stupefying.
I'm glad it's over. I regret that I purchased the newest Botanica Earthbound CE because of a discount coupon. Hopefully, it is not more of the same.
I don't recommend this game.

I use a mac so the hints do not work. The interactive map does not show objectives or available tasks it just puts you within four clicks of a destination.
All in all I found the game too small. Again, I think it is because I play on a mac. The drawings are very dark and at that small size with the occasional language problem the HO's were annoying rather than challenging.
If the developer could rectify out some of the issues I would play another game they produce but I would pass on this if you use a mac.
I don't recommend this game.

This did not always make sense. It was also so dark that many objects were invisible. I really liked the cutscenes in the style of a graphic novel and wish the designers had used that throughout rather than use the sighing Sara who just flipped her head from side to side. She was annoying.
I used a free game coupon for this game. There are not always a lot of choices with which to use them. I do not think I would buy this game. It was too short. Play it for free but save your money otherwise.
I don't recommend this game.

Overall This game is pretty remarkable. The game was beautiful to look at. The voiceovers were good though a tad predictable when the character was evil.
I must say that the ability to customize the difficulty was not as easily manipulated as I desire. I do not want any sparkles! I do not want hints but I love my map to show me where I am needed. It helps when there are hours or days between gameplay. I was not able to do this, I had to choose one or the other.
I really loved the credits they were very interesting, it may have been my favorite part of the game. It made the group of designers come alive. I also liked the song the sang.
On the negative side I found the use of the de-icing paintbrush rather annoying and I also found the hints were too easy to hit accidentally when objects were too close. The game was a bit too easy but I still enjoyed it.
I recommend this game!
