Playing the demo, I reached the mechanical room, inserted the gears and the game froze. Exited and tried again 4x but can't get past that point. Was planning on purchasing but it's a moot point now.
DO games has done a much better job with this game. Puzzles are a lot more enjoyable than the typical puzzles every developer uses. Enjoyed the HO scenes which DO always provides a lot of.
Game is worth playing and buying if you don't get frozen like I did

Despite the fact that this was not a fun game and I don't recommend it ON GAMEPLAY ALONE, I am surprised at the approval of CATFISH's comment. Whether you believe or not, its comment should have been about game play not the religious content. If this were a LGBTQ game and someone made a negative comment, it never would have been posted. What's good for the goose should be good for the gander. BF you claim comments are subject to approval so follow your own rules.
I don't recommend this game.

If you haven't played this series yet, you don't need a long drawn out boring review. Just buy it and enjoy! This is another excellent Christmas Wonderland! One of the few games that deserves 10 stars. The new music is PERFECT!! And the hidden snowman is a great addition. Thank you Casual Arts! Can't wait until next year!
I recommend this game!

I enjoyed this game despite the many bad reviews. It's relaxing, nice music, and a good Hidden Object game. Play the demo and decide for yourself.
I recommend this game!

This series is always fun to play. This version has a lot of new additions to gameplay that were a pleasant surprise. The puzzles seem to rotate more often but there is still too many mahjong puzzles. Sometimes I would get 3 in a row....too much. The storyline is never worth reading IMO and the character is boring. This game doesn't need a storyline...game play alone is worth buying this game
I recommend this game!

Those 3 star reviewers are being overly generous. There is absolutely nothing fun about this game. The graphic quality is terrible and the storyline is boring. Couldn't even finish the demo. Don't waste your time or money/credits.
I don't recommend this game.

Seriously just stop. Put aside the fact that this game is boring, childish and a visual disaster. Who proofs these games? It had to have been created in another language then google translated into English because there were so many mistakes...the clues/words not matching the pictures in too many of the levels. And I won't even go into criticizing the puzzle games...."Who can you trust?" Trust me when I say Give this game a hard pass.
I don't recommend this game.
Embark on a haunting hidden-object trip through time!

this was a good game...not great. I have enjoyed most of the Grim Tales series, there were 1 or 2 that bombed but this series lost its luster when they got rid of Richard. He added humor to the game and was a fan favorite.
There was too much jumping around between scenes for me. I would have liked more HO scenes using word search. The games were 50/50 for me.
I'm confused...is mom now no longer part of the storyline? Mom isn't as bad as 1 reviewer rated her but she is boring. Hate to be repetitive but they never should have deleted Richards character. "If it aint broke, don't fix it"
If you have played the whole series, its hard not to continue playing new releases but for me this isn't a game to buy full price or even member price. Wait for it to go on sale or use your club points.
I recommend this game!
Organize and run an epic yard sale for the ages!

The graphics are terrible. The HO scenes are blurry and I found myself squinting and leaning closer to the screen just to try and make out objects in the scene. There are too many puzzle and find difference scenes and not enough hidden object games.
If the graphics were sharper this would be a good game for a child but its way too childish for an adult

I played the demo for 10 minutes and had to quit. To save time, I'll just say there was absolutely nothing enjoyable about this game. Best advice I can give is ignore the 5 star reviews and don't even bother. Elephant Games should be embarrassed.
I don't recommend this game.
