Although the graphics were good, there was no map, so you had to painstakingly back track all the time to get to the next active location.
Luckily, the hint button charges very quickly, so I kept using that to lead me to the next action needed.
The HO’s were laborious, as there were too many of them and not enough mini-puzzles to break up the monotony. Also a lot of the objects were very hard to find hidden in quite dark places.
The mini-puzzles were too easy.
The only one I found a bit more challenging was the 3 rotating rings where objects had to be lined up, but even with that, a lot were already lined up at the beginning.

A nice game for someone who does not want to think too hard and has a lot of spare time on their hands.
Sacra Terra: The Kiss of Death was a much better game.
I don't recommend this game.

Great value for money - very good interactive puzzles all through the game.

I loved this, because the HO's were interactive, having mini puzzles within them.
There is no site map, but instead, you could instantly teleport to the next place there is an action needed.
I also loved the mini puzzles: There were quite a lot of highly interactive puzzles, each one contained a number of follow-on tasks to work out so that you would gain another item or unlock another area, which then lead onto another task to be solved, which eventually lead to the complete puzzle being completed.
Each puzzle was harder than the last.
Great play value taking a lot of time to complete.

I loved Aveyond and thought this would be similar.
Played it for 10 mins and found it very hard going, boring, slow moving.
Not very user friendly with the options / controls.

If you like this sort of game, please give Aveyond a try which is a hundred times better than this.

I really loved this game. Extremely challenging and addictive.
Managed to play all levels in timed mode getting 3 stars every time.
Sometimes it took me up to 3 days to keep retrying a level to work out how to get 3 stars by shaving off milliseconds here and there.
Managed to complete it in 4 weeks and see the final screen shot after playing the 5th bonus level. And that's an over 60's Mom playing it!

You think the game has ended when it is only half way through. Lots of challenging puzzles and not too many boring HOS, some of which have things to interact in order to collect the objects first.
There is a map, but it only tells you what there is still left to do on it.
Hint charger tells you how much time is left to fully charge.
Good graphics. Good story line. A good game to occupy yourself with for hours on end.

I must admit, I nearly gave up as I wasn't used to the way you need to move about. As soon as I got the hang of it - ie looking up will circle around the roof area and looking down will circle around the floor. As soon as found and looked around at eye level, I could move around and find objects and complete the challenges.
It is nice not to be spoon fed everything, because as soon as you realise how to do certain things, ie how to access the inventory and use objects you get another feel of accomplishment.
It is a lovely game, but you do need patience to play it, but it is very rewarding as you complete the next step.

Fast moving game, as you can access the map to get to the locations where you need to solve the next puzzle.
Also, the areas which open to collect items close after they are no longer needed.
Nice selection of mini puzzles.
The only thing I could criticise was that the ending was a bit abrupt.
All in all, I really enjoyed this game as it was attention holding and the HOS scenes were not overpowering and tedious.

Good fast flowing game as you can use the interactive map to go directly to where the next task can be found.
Areas which are of no importance are blocked out until needed again.
I like the fact, that when you click on an area to collect items, the areas 'close down' when they are finished with.
Good selection of mini games to add extra interest.

Nice to have lots of puzzles as well as hidden objects.
The interactive map is very useful to jump to 'active' areas.
Only criticism is that when you click on an area to collect items, the areas do not 'close down'.

Looked like an easy game at first sight, but the game develops as the levels go on and get more and more challenging to complete the tasks.
My personal challenge is to complete ALL levels in GOLD.
Levels 40, 50 and 60 (this is where I am at the moment) are really difficult, but so far I have managed to get gold on all levels up to now. (I think there are another 20 levels as I haven't reached the volcano yet)
You have to be very tactful as to what you do first and how many men you assign to each task to tweak it to perfection.
Great little game.
