I always intended to buy this SE version as I didn't believe it was up to the standard of a CE. And I took notice of some of the reviews.
The game itself maybe isn't as good as others of this type but if you like this genre of games, it can be enjoyable.
A suggestion to the developers. The symbols for the stamp and jigsaw piece need to be highlighted once found so before each level is completed we players know that all the collectibles have been located.
I recommend this game!
Explore incredible new artwork and let your creative side shine as you complete these colorful paint-by-numbers puzzles.

I bought this straight away before downloading the trial and glad I did.
It's the best one so far - lots of variety, colourful and loving the Christmas theme. This developer's paint by numbers is far superior to all the others for sure.
Keep 'em coming please.

I'm a lover of most HOGs but personally I don't think this warrants a CE. I'm by no means trashing this game as the content was quite good and after only playing the demo, I agree with the positive reviews so far. In my opinion, it's really no different to other recent HOGs similar to this one that were justifiably released as a SE.
Although I do adore cats, I'll wait for the next release.
I recommend this game!

I'm a newby at this game and others similar to it. Took me a while to warm to it until I discovered that right clicking the mouse zoomed the whole puzzle around. Before that I was wondering why only part of it zoomed and I found that frustrating. Would have been a no-buy for me. Now I'm loving this addictive game and it is very relaxing.
The pictures and colours are really pretty and the devs have put a lot of thought into it.
I recommend this game!

This is the first MJ game that I've played and I have to say that the graphics are really good which is why I gave visual/sound 4 stars and I found the music somewhat tolerable but it does drag the game down. How about changing it up and creating different (better) music for different scenes?
Anyway to the game - it's playable for about 10 scenes and then I have to give it a break because it becomes boring. The puzzle games are way to basic and so easy. The match ups and the maze are really for the youngest of children.
On the positive side, it really has so much potential with the bright and colorful scenery and the info is great and I don't mind the hidden object aspect either. Some of the hearts are very well hidden.
I'm recommending it because personally I do love hidden object games.
I recommend this game!

It was a lovely relaxing game purely just to enjoy the spectacular scenes. There was some challenge just to find all the cats.
My only wish is that the developers would have named where each scene was on our beautiful Earth. That would have capped it off for me and I would have given it 5 stars.
I recommend this game!

I love everything about this puzzle game.
Can separate the end pieces at the start.
Random pieces fit into place even if they're not attached.
The ghost picture is available.
Being able to zoom in to make the pieces bigger.

Basically, it's a very well thought out design and the variety of puzzles are of course beautiful too.

I haven't made up my mind whether I prefer this layout of individual areas or the other version (like the Adventure Trip games) where you do each area in one hit but I guess it does break up the monotony.
The graphics are so clear and loving the magnifying glass when I really get stuck. And the music is so cool especially the funky jazz piano. Glad to see the puzzles have been included too.
Definitely an instant buy for me.
I recommend this game!

I totally loved this release. Wasn't that impressed with last years "Wonderland Meets Cruise Director" theme but this year, imo, it reached the mark.
With the challenges we're all facing this year - it helps escape from them if only for a while. That's what Christmas Wonderland is all about and you expect lots of cluttered hidden objects and the bright colourful scenes. Loads of puzzles this time and I enjoyed the newer ones.
I love the repetition of the familiar scenes and people and characters. The music has always been great - cheery and Chrismassy.
(Hey Devs - you've got 10 months to create Halloween 3 please please please?! Some of us have been waiting for years.) Just saying.
I recommend this game!

I really like this game but that's not surprising because Domino is one of my favourite developers.
Generally, I'm not a fan of HOPA games but I thought this was fun, challenging and a joy to play. It captured Christmas with imagination and story book features that most of us like at this time of the year. The story line flowed well, the puzzles were challenging and I like how you can see which extra objects you need to find at each scene.
If you're a child at heart then give it a go.
I recommend this game!
