I enjoy playing this series of HO games. Fun way to pass some time and I always learn something. I thought some of the scenes could have been a little crisper/sharper but overall they were pleasant to look at.
The Canada thing is a huge mistake. It doesn't take away from game play but it should have been caught and fixed before release.
To the reviewer who mentioned it should have been pigeon, singular.... the clue is correct. The item was a pair of pigeons.
I recommend this game!

Another winner for Friendly Fox. Amazing graphics, pleasing color tones and the storyline was fun to follow. I have been very critical of HOPA games lately but this one is well worth playing.
I recommend this game!

DO games should be embarrassed that they keep putting out these boring cookie cutter games. And people should be embarrassed to admit they bought it and give it more than 2 stars. I gave it 1 star bc they have no pop-out stars in this one.
I don't know why they categorize this as a Hidden Object game. It is so mini game heavy. Thank goodness for the skip button. Also, some of the HOGs aren't working. The item list was blank so I didn't know what to look for. I had to play Match 3 instead.
Here's a suggestion-make the match 3 an option instead of the mini games. Why would you make match 3 an option for the HO scenes when Its a HO game???
DO used to be one of my favorites but no more. And BFG has gotten just as bad. I'm curious to see how the upcoming update works and hope it isn't screwed up. May be time to leave BFG too.
I don't recommend this game.

I give them a D for effort. DO came up with a few new games but they aren't very fun. And this game is game HEAVY. Poorly created characters and storyline. HO scenes weren't very challenging or exciting. I couldn't even finish the demo.
I think DO needs to hire some new game designers or just get out of the gaming business all together.
I don't recommend this game.

This game has the most beautiful Christmas scenes, with amazing graphics and pleasant music There is a fun variety of games/puzzles. Three different levels of difficulty. You collect coins to gain access to additional bonus games. I like the zoom option in the HO scenes, much better than the magnifying glass. And you get a decorated Christmas tree!
Just like with Twistingo, this game is definitely worth playing/purchasing.
I recommend this game!

Had fun playing this. It really should provide more direction for those not familiar with this type of game. I finished it in the free 60 minutes but if I had bought it I would be a little ticked off. Once you find the 100 hearts you are done. It gives you the option to reset but is it the exact game repeated? They don't say in the game description nor do other reviewers mention it.
Based on that unknown info, I won't recommend buying this game at this time, only playing he demo. Unless you have a lot of credits and don't care about wasting them.
TIP: click on all the question marks, most have a clue for hidden hearts
I don't recommend this game.

This Christmas game is always a favorite here on BF. I enjoy it so much it seems to finish faster than other games. Most of the scenes are wonderful to look at and most of the music is pleasant to listen to.
I will always give this game 5 stars. However there are things that I feel for me personally could use some improvement
.
*The version of "Jolly Ole St. Nicholas" is like nails on a chalkboard. The woman just can't sing. Please find a different version sung by someone else (I complain about his every time they use it)
*Some of the scenes are too junky. Not only does it make them unpleasant to look at but it makes things harder to find. Not everyone has the eyes of a 20 year old. Give us a magnifying glass or take out some of the clutter.
*The 2nd jigsaw puzzle was HORRIBLE. An ugly warehouse, really?? You couldn't find a better Christmas scene to use?
Despite these things I still love you Christmas Wonderland.
I recommend this game!

Thanks for getting rid of those ridiculous stars DO.
As usual the visual quality of DO games is excellent, as is the audio. Not a lot of babble which I like. And I had no issues downloading and playing.
As far as game play....meh. Pretty ordinary, just another Scrooge-type storyline. I hope over the next couple weeks BF gives us some decent Christmas games to play 🤞🏻
I recommend this game!

I would love to rate this game on my gameplay impressions but I can't even get it to stay open so I can play.
However looking at the game pics on the game page, I'm certain I would agree with the negative reviewers and would not change my 2 star rating
I don't recommend this game.
