This story is based on a little girl's desire to change the past after she overhears her parents arguing. You have to complete tasks for different skeletons. There are some different mini games. The hint button charges pretty fast, but you get penalized for miss clicks, which is totally unnecessary and just takes away from the game experience to me. It is a nice, pleasant game, but nothing extraordinary or overly exciting. If you are looking for something just a tad different than what we've seen in awhile, check this one out.
I recommend this game!

This game is pretty good, but it doesn't quite hold up to the other games in the Hidden Mysteries Series. It does seem to move a tad bit slow, but not so much as to interfere with playing the game. Hopefully the next game by the developer will have more thought put into it. Still, I like it enough to play it and will use a credit on it. You just need to try this one out for yourself to see if it is for you or not.

If you played the first two games of this series, you will see this one continues along the same line with the graphics, music (which I think fits well) and no voiceovers. But it works very well for this game. The story line is interesting and it makes you want to keep playing to find out what happens next. Can get a little tense at times knowing some creature may jump out at you. I would say the difficulty level is medium. Not too hard, but you still have to think a little. May not be challenging enough for some, but sometimes that is just the type of game I'm in the mood for. I enjoyed the first two games and I know I will enjoy the remainder of this game. So give it a try. I don't think you will be disappointed. A very good game!

This is a good game, but I don't think it is as good as the first House of 1000 Doors. There is a map that helps you see where you need to do things and you can jump there. I found myself using the map more instead of trying to figure out where to go myself. The puzzles were easy too. Overall the graphics are very good. I wasn't impressed by the music. All in all It is an enjoyable game and I hope they will continue to do more of these. I like the concept of having a whole new adventure every time a new door is opened.

Adventure games are meant to make you use your thinking skills in most cases. This one is not too hard, and there is a walkthrough if you happen to get stumped. Also a map to show you where tasks need to be completed. I thought the hint button took too long to charge. Was grateful for no penalty for clicking which I greatly dislike. All in all it was a very nice game and well worth the purchase. I enjoyed it.

If you like the adventure games, then don't let this one go by. The storyline is good, can't wait to see how it all comes out. Keeps you in suspense. Very different in the fact that you take the pictures of the locations yourself. The items for the HO scenes are blended in just enough to make you have to look carefully for some of them, but not so much that it becomes frustrating. No penalty for clicks. The music is nice also. The developers have done a great job with this game. The first Shiver was good and this one promises to be even better. I love it and will definitely be buying this game.

I'm a little surprised at all the negative reviews of this game. I think it is quite good. The game depicts the western scene well in the graphics, voiceovers are very good and so is the story. It is a simple fun game. This is one I hope everyone will try for themselves and not rely completely on the reviews. You might be pleasantly surprised!

This game is okay, but I just could not get very interested in it. The game was just boring to me. It is made well, graphics are nice, etc., but way too many arrows and sparkles. Hint recharges super fast. This would be a good game if you are looking for something simple without much of a challenge though.
I don't recommend this game.

This game took hold of my interest as soon as I started playing it. One of the best SE games we have had in a while. You wake up from a coma and go in search of your family in a town that has been devastated by some experiment gone horribly wrong. I keep expecting a strange being to jump out at any time. Minigames require some thinking, but can be skipped. It takes the hint button a little while to refill. No clicking penalties in HO scenes that I ran across. Overall, a very good game, well made. I like this type of game and never get tired of playing them, even if we have been there, done that before.
I recommend this game!
