This game has the truly best graphics I've seen on any game in a long time. I enjoyed it more than any other games I've played in a long time and I own 3 or 400 of your games and Real Arcade. It captured my attention with the story lines and the graphics best of all. Even the music matched the actions. My only complaint about it is with the notebook notations and it could be due to my graphics card. I played through the trial, then purchased the game a day or two later. Once I got into the game, I was trapped again and played all the way through including the bonus chapter, although it really had little to do with the game itself other than using some of the same locations. Kudos to the developers and creators of this game.
I recommend this game!

The plot is good, the graphics fair, but the hint button is almost useless. Sometimes, you can find something in the location it "points" out to you and sometimes, there's nothing there to click on that will help and nothing you click on is the right thing. I need more help than the "Help" button provides. Perhaps the Deluxe Edition will provide the needed guidance, but as it is, I don't think I would want to purchase it. Maybe later if you ever post an overview or something, but not now. I'm stuck and there's no place to get help that I can understand, or at least none I've been able to find
I don't recommend this game.

This looked like it would be a really fun game, but I was soon disappointed. It was never really clear where to go nor what to do and the "Hint" was sometimes wrong. The graphics were fair, the sounds okay, but overall, the navigation and instructions were very difficult--and I don't mean as a "challenge" to my skill level. It just wasn't put together really well. The developers need to put it back on the drawing board as a beta case and let some strangers play it to see how they handled it before they roll it out. Perhaps it could be done with a patch, I don't know that much about it, but it does need some "tweaking". As you can see, I purchase most of the HOGs, but not this one.
I don't recommend this game.

I enjoyed this game perhaps more than many others which were better made and had better graphics, but I got caught up in the story line and enjoyed the visions of Graceland and most especially, the film clips of Elvis in his younger days. In 1956, I was 12 and the time line of the film clips follow the time span of my life, therefore, it was somewhat nostalgic. The only negatives I had had to do with all the running back and forth, although in some ways, that gave me a "feel" for Graceland. It was gracious and informative as well as entertaining for an elderly fan. Thank you for a game that was not so "dark".
I recommend this game!

I thoroughly enjoyed this game, even though it is a tad frustrating. Match 3 with a touch of Hidden object (the graphics need a little bit of help). What more could I want? My favorite combo!! It is fun and the story line is okay. I played to the end of the trial, but I purchased it immediately and played on to the end. It held my interest to the end. I haven't looked at the other reviews because I don't want to slant my opinion. Ha-ha.....as if. Much better than all this dark, mystical magic. You could at least have some fun, mystical magic once in a while. I have hundreds of your games, but many lose their appeal before the trial is finished. Some are too cryptic--not this one. It's great.
I recommend this game!

I had tried the game for the full hour but I still wasn't sure if I wanted to buy it so I could finish out the story and see if he was successful.(Duh!) of course he would be. I thought the graphics are fairly good and the story line is okay, although a lot of the activities make absolutely no sense to the story line. I even liked those, though.
The thing I didn't like though, is that I got stuck in one area and can't find what I need. I know where there is a barrel of water and I know I need a grappling hook and rope, but I don't have them and can't seem to find a hopeful destination in order to use the water in the well.
This is a minor irritation since it really is a simple game, it's difficult enough to qualify for what I call, "bubble gum for the brain". Easy enough so I don't have to think really hard, and hard enough to hold my interest. The "Hint" on this one is no help and there is no walk-through or forum available or I haven't yet found it. I was hoping it was a common problem and someone had an answer. No such luck.
I recommend this game!
