I love this game! The storyline is great, a real HOPA game! There are 3 game modes; I played in Advanced mode, which has no sparkes.
- The graphics are gorgeous, clear!
- There is just the good amount of HOS. They are interactive and not cluttered.
- The puzzles are quite easy, but really interesting.
- You have a journal, which is useful, and also an interactive map: no need to walk... just jump to the location!
- The objectives are so clear, that I didn't have to use the hint system.
Ok... the game is not long, about 2 1/2 hours without skipping anything, but there are many things to do and I enjoyed every minute!

This game is more a HOPA than a HOG. There are 3 game modes, and no sparkles in the Advanced mode.
- The graphics are really beautiful, with lots of colors!
- The HOS are clear and not cluttered.
- The puzzles are on the easy side, but interesting.
- There is no journal, but an interactive map. The problem though, is that there are many locations, a lot of to and fro, and I often had forgotten where an object was. On the other hand the hint system is very good since it tells you what to do next.
- The characters are interesting and the dialogs not too long.
I needed about 3 1/2 hours without skipping, but as I said before using the hint system quite a number of times...
I still recommend this great "Elephant" game!

This is not the most difficult game, but I spent a good time. You have to find relics to travel through portals. The graphics are clear. You have to find objects in the locations to solve the puzzles, which are quite easy. The cursor changes when you're on the right spot. The characters you meet tell you what to do. You have a good journal with the clues. The hint system is good.
There's nothing really challenging, so just enjoy!

The storyline is good, the graphics are great, the puzzles are challenging, and the game length is good!
Only minus for me: even in Hardcore mode, there are sparkles.

The storyline is interesting; bring back life in Silentville. There are 2 game modes; there are still sparkles in the Hard mode...
- I had to turn the sound off: the doors opening and closing is just annoying!
- The graphics are clear. The HOS are interactive, so there is no just clicking.
- The game is slow, you have to click twice to move to another location.
- The hint system is very good, bringing you to the location where there is a task.
- You have a journal, a task list and an interactive map: clicking brings you there.
- The puzzles are on the easy side, but interesting.
The game is short, it took me about 2 hours to finish. But all in all, it's an nice game.

Although there is a witch, it's not a creepy game. The graphics are clear. You have to find objects in HOS but also more generally in the scene. You have to assemble various objects to move through a portal. There are some puzzles, quite easy. The hint system is good. Clicking everywhere freezes the cursor. There is a good journal. You don't have to walk a lot.
It took me about 2 hours to finish. I recommend also the first "Behind the Reflection". Good for beginners or for a break.

The storyline, with its historical aspect, is interesting. There are 2 game modes. I played in Expert mode.
- The sound can be really annoying... I had to turn it off.
- The graphics are quite clear. The objects in the HOS are easy to find. There are also sparkles in this mode.
- The puzzles are quite easy, but interesting.
- You have a very good map, not interactive but useful, since there is a lot of to and fro.
- The dialogues are not too long, which I like.
The game is not very long; without skipping, it took me 2 hours to finish. But I found it worth the money.

I expected more of this game. The storyline is good. But otherwise:
- There is only one game mode.
- The graphics are ok. The objects in the HOS are sometimes hard to find.
- The puzzles are boring.
- There is no journal and no map.
- The hint system is not always accurate, changing its mind when you move a little bit...

As the title says, it's all about cats; well, I love cats! There are 3 game modes; I played in Advanced Mode, but there are sparkles.
The graphics are nice, crisp and the sound is not annoying.
The HOS are clear. The puzzles are mostly easy.
There is a journal, no map and a lot of to and fro. The hint system is good, showing you the direction, and recharging quickly.
You can collect 24 cats, not all of them easy to find.
It took me about 3 hours, so a good length.

This is a cute story with beautiful graphics and sound, easy HOS and puzzles, and a good hint system. But, without skipping, it took me a bit more than 1 hour to finish; that's definitely too short for me!
I recommend it as a DD or for beginners.
