This game pulled my right in! After the trial I just had to buy it and don't regret my purchase! I just had to find out what I could do next and what scenes would open up next. The HO scenes were cleverly done and I loved the puzzles. It felt like a nicely balanced puzzle, HO and adventure game.
Pros:
Nice sound quality
Great puzzles
challenging HO scenes
Clear voices
Interesting storyline
Map for orientation
All discovered important codes stored in reference book
Cons:
Acting a bit overdone with excessive hand gestures, dubbing could use improvement.
Overall, this is a four and a half star game in my book! I really enjoyed it! Well done.
I recommend this game!

This is truly a fun game, once you get the hang of it! It differs from other HO games in several ways. I so welcome games that are not run-of the mill, cookie cutter style.
Your father accidentally brings something back from the past from his latest time travel. He asks you to travel throughout history and "fix" inventions and gadgets and errors.
How would you like to go snooping around Thomas Edison's room? That is just one of the places you will go.
Your time machine takes you to wherever an invention's pieces are scattered over multiple scenes, within scenes. No constant walking back and forth! Sparkles show areas with HO that also have parts for the gadgetsas as well as for inventions, besides just being HO scenes. The mini puzzles within the game are fun as well! You get to look into drawers, cabinets, under things. All in one scene, or parts thereoff.
After finding a particular invention's parts, you assemble them according to a picture. It is not difficult to do. After he machine springs into action, the last step for you is to pick up all futuristic items in that scene, You restore history and the time machine takes you to the next time period that needs fixing.
You don't just fix inventions and clean up time periods, but you also find and assemble gadgets throughout the game.
The musical scores are pleasant and not the least bit annoying. I love the father's accent and kind instructional voice. No lenghty, involved story line, but fun gaming time! Perfectly balanced for my taste.
Overall, this games allows you to combine all your Hidden Object hunting skills, your puzzle solving skill and historical adventure skills all in one game. I hope you enjoy this game as much as I did. I love something different that is great fun! What a bargain for the daily deal prize!
I recommend this game!

I loved everything about this game. The live actor cut scenes reminded me a bit of the old Phantasmagoria adventure games, which I enjoyed ages ago! While I was playing, I felt like I was in the game, totally immersed in the storyline. I might just play this one again, in the near future. That is something I rarely do with HO games.
I recommend this game!
