I played 20 minutes of the demo and I'm buying it. This is the kind of HOG I enjoy. I like the story line, music and the graphics are great. Straightforward and not too much running around. Overall a great game!
I recommend this game!

I love Solitaire games and enjoy playing playing them. This one I did not. Graphics are cheesy, music is annoying and the story line should never have been. This game needs to go back to the drawing board.
I don't recommend this game.

I bought this game because I liked the other two in the series. I'm sorry I did now. Too much going back and forth within the game. I don't mind working between scenes but this game there are too many scenes open and you have a tendency to forget where you are. The graphics are lovely, story line is decent but in general it didn't win me over. I would no recommend this game for first time HOG gamer's because they will be frustrated.
I don't recommend this game.

When I saw the preview for this game I wasn't sure I was going to try it. I'm glad I did. Just a fun, pretty straight forward HOG. The only thing I really didn't like was that it was too short, otherwise I really enjoyed the music, graphics and voice overs that were done. It was not your usual HOG.
I recommend this game!

Not the kind of game that I enjoy. The graphics are basic, music is annoying and the layout doesn't make any sense. Keep your money and move on to another game.
I don't recommend this game.

I've played all of the BCA games and this one is the only one I really didn't enjoy. They tried doing something different this time with a story and you figuring out a mystery. I liked the graphics and the information that is shared about England but I didn't enjoy the mystery piece of it.
I don't recommend this game.

This game was one of most challenging I have played in a long time. I enjoyed the "freedom" of wandering around however I did get frustrated when I ran out of ideas of what to do next. The graphics are great and story is unique. I would not recommend this game to first time players of HOGs. I believe they would be frustrated and not want to try another HOG in the future.
I recommend this game!

This is one of my favorites HOG. I've played it several times and will most likely again. I love the interaction with the characters and choosing my own gardens for the game. The graphics are great and the game in general is just plain fun. I would recommend this game to first time players of hidden object. It's a nice introduction to this type of game.
I recommend this game!

I didn't think I would like this game when I first started but it grew on me. I like the graphics and the hidden objects in both realms was a neat idea. The only thing I didn't like was that the game was too short. I bought the CE edition and didn't feel I got my monies worth for it. Otherwise, a fun game overall.
I recommend this game!
