I enjoyed this game. It's a definite improvement over the HO games we've been given to play in a long time.
The main chapter was well done and a decent storyline to follow. The bonus chapter was ok, a bit too short and the storyline connection was lacking. The 3rd bonus was a HO scene and could have been much longer with very little extra effort by the developer.
My only real complaint was the accuracy of placing/combining items. You have to be dead on or you'll be making several attempts. A couple of times I had to use the hint button to see exactly where I was supposed to be placing or clicking. Got a bit aggravating.
Overall this is a really fun gam, great visuals and a mixture of different type of HO scenes as well as puzzles.
I definitely recommend this game (we may not see a decent HO game again for awhile)

I enjoyed playing the demo but the game falls short of a great game. I think the polaroid and 3 morphs were easy to find. The HO scenes were fun to play but wish there were more objects to find and more HO scenes. Way too may puzzles in between. Sometimes 2 puzzles to 1 HO. And a lot of the puzzles were too childish (the click, drag and paint became redundantly annoying).
I think with some tweaking, this type game by this developer could have some potential.
I recommend playing the demo just to experience it for yourself but I would give the purchase a pass.

I know this game is going to get bad reviews from the DO/Domino despisers but I enjoyed playing the demo. I would purchase this with club points or a BOGO sale.
They came up with new ways to complete the usual boring tasks which makes you think a little more. Not much to the storyline in the demo but its nice not being bombarded with chat and popups.
I think we all have to come to the realization that because we have played so many HOPA games, it going to take a miracle to find a game that has a WOW factor anymore. Given that, definitely play the demo and come to your own conclusions...dont follow the reviews from the Domino malcontents.

I enjoyed playing the demo. This would be a great game for beginner Time Management players. Graphics are a little old school but that doesn't take away from game play. I played on Easy mode like I do all TM games. I play them more for the relaxing enjoyment and to improve brain muscle memory. I don't find it enjoyable to play at higher modes as the timers just stress me out.
Play the demo and see if this is the game for you

I quit playing the demo 15 minutes in. Thank goodness for the skip button. Not challenging at all. I felt the game flow was choppy and the tasks too predictable. The only reason I didn't give this game 1 star is because I'm in a good mood today.
With the caliber of HO games that BF is putting out (that they expect us to pay for), Time Management games are quickly becoming my favorite, pushing HO games down the list.
And if anyone can explain to me the meaning of "new game every day" I'd appreciate it. I'm sorry but I don't consider SE & CE games with the same title to be different games. So technically we aren't getting 30-31 new games a month. The only reasons I keep checking out the BFG site is 1) the hope of a great Hidden Object game popping up and 2) I can play demos for free.
BFG please start providing us with some decent games that are worth purchasing.

I enjoyed this game even though it is fairly easy. I would compare it to a HO/travel game on steroids or a simpler version of a Park Ranger type game. I liked the puzzle games and the location "facts" were short and to the point. And there was no useless conversations to click through.
My only issue is I thought the graphics could have been a little sharper.
Will be adding this to my list of "to buy" games (which would be easier of BFG would just create a list feature and make it easy for us)

I didn't even finish the demo. I'm not sure what the 4 and 5 star reviewers were playing but it wasn't the game I was playing. The HO scenes were horrible and childish. The visual quality was lacking and there really was no sounds within the scenes. The story line was so boring, I began using hints and skips to move forward. If I was 12 years old I probably would have enjoyed this game.
What astonishes me with game reviews is how most slam DO/Domino developer games yet rate poor games like this high.
I wanted to like this. I have missed playing a really fun HOPA game. Seems like the only one that gets it right is Park Ranger.
And it makes me wonder if we will ever get any games of decent caliber again from these developers.

I didn't dislike this game, it was so-so. I found some of the scenes to be too dark making it hard to see what some of the items were. Not very challenging for an adult. Every third or fourth scene was a puzzle which I am not overly fond of to begin with. But the ones I didn't like, I just skipped. I played the demo and definitely would not spend money on this game. I also wouldn't spend points on it but if I was given it for free, I would play the entire game. Not a very glowing recommendation.
I don't recommend this game.
