I don't do reviews however we finally have a real puzzle game that uses some hidden object play as well. Great concept, mix of puzzles and interesting versions of classic mini games.
Biggest plus: real value for game play. Huge amount to play. I've been at it for about 10 hours and am only on the fifth chapter.
For those of you who remember safe cracker, this is a worthy successor.
I recommend this game!
Who could turn down an opportunity to change the past?

Not to be nostalgic, this is not a MCF of 10 years ago. Puzzles and minigames were so easy as to make them useless. Poor animations and lack of ambition. You move from one site to another find something, put it in something that matches its shape and and then open up something. Most play takes place in one location or a adjacent location. Not a quality game.
I don't recommend this game.
Pendle Tower was once a lavish high-rise hotel, but a new renovation has awakened a long-dormant secret within its foreboding halls.

Problem when a game publisher slaps on the brand of what used to be an excellent game franchise. This game is terrible. Too easy, lazy, uninspired and silly. Nothing interesting in it. Puzzles and mini-games ridiculously easy or tedious. A truly great combination
Beware, this is not the Mystery Case Files of years past..
I don't recommend this game.

I finished the first island all 3 star and still can't get the bonus level. So what did I get for purchasing a collector's edition? Some wallpaper? Not worth it. If I have to get 3 star on EVERY LEVEL to unlock bonus level that's ridiculous. This game is way to difficult and I'm an experienced time management player.
Purchase the regular version. Most people don't want wallpapers.
I don't recommend this game.

Mystery Case Files certainly isn't what it used to be. The collaboration with the new development studio resulted in a boring and unoriginal game. Lazy development with very simple puzzles produced a waste of time and a game that is better suited to 10 years ago than today.
I don't recommend this game.

What an awful game. Game designers took a clever and original time management game and made it into a mess. Adding way too many options and unexplained artifacts, spells or what have you. The worse part is that you spend all your time clicking to just keep up with the onslaught of ghosts, and other silly things running amok. I just uninstalled the game and warn anybody who is thinking about this game to stay away!
I don't recommend this game.
