The storyline would have made for a good game if everything else had been updated. It's old-style graphics, games, and play. You have to gather fireflies (if you can see them) to earn hints. Graphics are rather dark making it difficult to find stuff. Movement is very static, not natural-looking. With the progress which has been made in software etc I would have expected a much more up-to-date game.
I don't recommend this game.

It's an old-style game, very little in the way of instructions. Have to guess where to go and what to do next. All you can do is click around and pick up random objects with no list and no idea what you have to do with anything. No hint button. Have to scroll around the screen to find the feet which tell you that you can go somewhere and hope you're going where you need to be. Doesn't tell you anything. It's definitely an adventure game - not the hidden object it says it is. It's a real adventure trying to figure out what you're supposed to do and how to do it. I made it through a whole 14 minutes of the trial before I deleted it. I have used (and programmed) computers for more years than I care to remember. This is a no-brainer for me. I do not recommend this game and I certainly will not be buying it. I play these games for fun and relaxation. This one is definitely not fun, or relaxation.
I don't recommend this game.

The same 7 notes played over and over and over and over and - well - you get my meaning. And yes - I counted the notes. The people who said they liked the game either get paid to say that or they are deaf. And I played the demo twice, just in case I missed something the first time round - no I didn't. And I only used up half the demo time. That's all I could stand.
I don't recommend this game.

It would have been a much better game - storyline is fine, the concept is fine - except that the movement on screen is slow, and the music is boring. I don't know what the original language of the game was but the English translations aren't very good English. It took quite a lot of just clicking round on some of the HOG's until I hit upon the required object because it certainly isn't known as whatever it was that you named it. Ever thought about getting an actual English speaking person to do the translations? Someone who knows what things are called? I'm sure there is someone out there who would be willing to translate for you, or even just proofread before you put the game out for the general public.
I don't recommend this game.

I actually made it through a total of 3 (yes, three) minutes of play before I deleted the game. A 6 year old might find this game enjoyable. The characters are very cartoon-like, as well as the movements. It wastes time having the characters go all the way out from their building to pick up 1 item, run all the way back, then all the way out for the next item - which are not 'hidden'. Actions are stilted. All you are doing is collecting food (energy), materials, and equipment to do the next thing.
I like doing the real hidden object games, but this is not one of them. Please rename it and put it in the correct category.
I do not recommend this game.

What a totally different ending to the demo. I'm not going to tell what happens because I don't want to spoil it for other players. It's a beautiful story for Xmas. I am so anxious to see the rest of the story that I am going to use my 2 credits to purchase this game. And I am someone who does not usually purchase CE's.
I recommend this game!

Could have been a great game. Scenes are very static - no movement whatsoever. Characters just stand/sit there. No voice-overs, just written dialogue where you have to read every word while listening to the same music played over and over.
Every scene has the same old arrows displayed on the screen from start to finish, no sparkles, just an eye showing where the HO's are. Can't we have even a little bit of animation instead of still after still after still. This is old-school photography that would be shown in an elementary school. I had great hopes for this when I saw the description. It was a total waste of time downloading it.

One of the scenes had a newspaper article with the date of 2013. Are you sure they didn't mean 1813? Poor quality lighting, poor quality movement of figures, hated the printed dialogue along with the corny voice-overs. Don't need both. If it's not necessary to the game why let us click on an item then tell us we don't have time to be doing that. I don't have time to be doing an item-by-item search in every single scene. Figure movement was very stilted, with other figures suddenly appearing out of nowhere when you have completed something. Didn't seem to be any rhyme or reason for some of the actions. I certainly will not be buying this game. I have many more interesting games that I could spend my hard-earned money (or credits) if I wanted to. This is not among those.
I don't recommend this game.

I originally bought this game several years ago when I was first starting out on HO type games. This week I was bored so I decided to go back to some of the old games. Now I know why I haven't played it since I bought it. What a waste of money. You need a magnifying glass to search the HO scenes, provided you can figure out what the items are that you are searching for. The very first HO scene - since when has an hour glass been called a 'sandwich'? Last I heard a sandwich was a couple of pieces of bread with some sort of filling between them. Please get someone to proof-read before you publish.
Also the music is enough to put anyone to sleep. The storyline would have been OK if there had been some animation to keep it interesting.
This game might have been riveting for a seven-year-old but not for the average player.

Flat, cartoonish, lifeless, no interaction. And that was just the first seven minutes. That's all I could take. No voices, just writing. What happened to the good, interesting, animated, colourful, lively games? This had absolutely no interaction whatsoever. All it is - point and click. If you're lucky you might happen on something you need somewhere. If you're even luckier it might actually tell you what you need and maybe where you need it. If you want to fall asleep early then this might be the game for you. If you want something to keep you interested and awake - not this game.
I don't recommend this game.
