I LOVE, LOVE, this game!! So much thought went into the upgrades. The game gets progressively harder but you are also buying or upgrading items to help you.
Remember to always start by "watering" first!
And first upgrade your chairs.
Another fun trick I learned is to buy the "radio" asap and let your customers pile up at the pay counter. Then hit the radio at the last second so they are all happy with you and you get highest points from all your happy customers as they exit the store.
You are always changing places and working toward a new goal. I have to admit... this game and Bloom, Share flowers with the world are my new favorites in the TM genre.
If you like this game also try Bella Design. Same concept but you play in a clothing store selecting handbags and shoes.
2 other favorites are Burger Shop 2, and Burger Bustle, Ellie's Organics.
BFG, please make more like this! What an absolute blast!
I recommend this game!

This game has you start out slower and as you learn you can buy and upgrade the stations.
I wish there were more like this! The only problem I have is when you have your customer at the "green" station you are moving so fast with other areas that this screen comes up in the middle and I find I am selecting wrong because the screen interrupted the flow.
This game is also great for Pain Relief. You are so busy tending your customers your brain skips the "ouch I hurt".
So its great for people who have SLE or Fibromyalgia.
If you like this game as much as I do: try this one too.... BELLA DESIGN is VERY similar but you play in a clothing store.
I recommend this game!

This game is an addicting blast. If you like this, try Burger shop, and Bloom.... they are also terrific time management games.
This game is actually amazing for pain management. I have SLE (Lupus) in pain a good portion of my life. BFG has been a God send to me and especially the time management games.
For anyone with a condition that causes muscle pain especially.... for some reason you are so busy trying to keep up with the orders that your brain never has time to "feel" the level of ache.
You will learn really quick to prepare sandwiches in advance. The trick is to hire enough help to handle the stations. Also use your R click to deliver the portions!!
This game is SUCH A BLAST! Thank you so much BFG!
I recommend this game!

It is now 2016. I played this game years ago and it was such a blast from the past to hear the music again. This game is fast paced. You will learn quick as to where your R click is!
If you like this game.... also try another of my favorites like this called Burger Bustle and Burger Bustle Ellie's organics.
Geez I have never seen a SOLID 5 star rating on a game until today!! I have to agree whole heartedly and really wish they would come up with more like it!

****************MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS*******************
The SE portion of the game took me around 5, 20min.
The bonus play took me, 1hr 30min Total gameplay 6 hr. 10min --I took off 40min for a mini-game I had trouble on.
The first thing I need to address is how beautifully done the characters were in this game. Instead of talking from the side of the screen with text, they have a moment of 3d while they come close to the for-front and they look so real as they talk. It was perfectly done.
The cut scenes and graphics are also clear, crisp and have gorgeous effects & deep, rich color.
You play first in the present, then you have a time device that sends you for a chapter or so in Rome, then a chapter or so in Medieval times and the final portion of the standard portion of the game -they call it the Renaissance-- but it is actually a beautiful place with floating “animal islands” in the sky.
Chapters in Rome were a reddish hue, while chapters in medieval times were tones of teal & blue. The final area of SE play has gorgeous pinks and natural tones.
Chapter 4 has a storyline twist I was not a fan of. The SE portion ends quickly and leaves you hanging. Bonus play does not really completely answer or help this ending either as it is entirely another subject altogether. All of the Bonus play takes place in the future.... 2029, I believe.
You play 12 brand new areas in bonus. There were 10 more mini games and 5 HOS.
I have to admit, I wasn't a huge fan of the bonus level...as I prefer to play in outdoor areas and this entire level is inside.
You STOP collecting items at the end of the SE. So there are no more collectibles in the bonus play.
The game has a diary, a great portal task map, and a helpful step by step hint. Different to the inventory is a TIME DEVICE that will bring you to other locations as well as speeding up and slowing down time.
There is EVERY type of Hidden object scene is this game....we have morphs, lists, silhouettes, collecting more than 1 item, multiple step scenes...and this DEV is trying to cater to all of us.
CE goodies are:
19 wallpapers that save to doc file. You can replay 19 HOS & 12 mini games. Love a HO game that actually has more HOS then MG., 12 concept art, a statue page- for one of the collectibles, a puzzle pc page which looks like a stained glass window --- I was 1 piece off at the end of the game so I don't know if this does anything once you complete the puzzle, or not.
Bonus play took me 1 ½ hrs. There is a 12 question test to determine what age in history you might fit into. There is an Achievement and Artifact –showing more collectibles pgs. as well.
There is an in game 50pg walkthrough guide that I used several times to progress. To give you an idea of how long the bonus play is, CHAPTER 1 IS 8 PGS. BONUS CHAPTER IS 13PGS.
All in all I really liked this game. I am glad I purchased the CE. Enjoy the hours you spend in another place in history!
I recommend this game!

Based on Demo.....
The first scene has a brain on a pedestal with a baby bonnet and that was so absurd. Right off the bad I wasn't a fan of the graphics either. I prefer deep color, more computer gen graphics. I wasn't sure I would like this game.
The more I played the better it got and I found the humor had me laughing every two seconds!
You find out you are here to investigate a stolen skull of the King of Dreams. He can change reality to dreams. You are a paranormal investigator & the goal is to find the skull. You are given special glasses to use when you see glowing symbols and you have to match several. I loved this.
As the game continues, you get animals for the "zoo". As weird as this game was I was really enjoying all the adorable animals. This DEV has drawing animals down pat! The cut scenes and voice actors were perfect. Under notes is a diary and a (alternative task) jump map. Even the sound effects get an A+.
I ended up buying the CE for the SCREENSAVER. I buy loads of these games yet and haven't had a chance to finish this one yet. When I do I will update it under completed CE.
If you want to just unload daily stress, play this for a while and laugh!
I recommend this game!

Based on the demo...........
I bought all the other editions to this game, and CE's at that. I don't even want this version for a free credit.
I really don't like leaving bad reviews but game after game after game by this particular DEV....they all seem so much alike. And the graphics are just really, really bad. Maybe if enough Big fishers in this pond mention something they will make a change.
I play on a larger monitor and for some reason this particular DEV's graphics always look awful compared with some of the other larger DEV here. There is too much going on in a scene, like you can't see a tree through the forest; and quite often a room's perspective is off tool.
I am not sure if it is a filter they use. I have always preferred a more "clear-computer" look and not hand drawn looking scenes with characters that have odd movements.
I found the CE content to be lacking too.
I really loved the last installment, Dread of Oakville.... the graphics were still not good in that game either but the story was way better than this one & it had a better creepy factor.
I don't recommend this game.

I have purchased other CE in this series. I didn't like this installment, based purely on the demo. I think the evil queen story has been overdone...
I love games with adorable animals.
I stopped the demo at the SQUIRREL.
I don't recommend this game.

The graphics, choice of game colors and special effects are just perfect. Voice actors are also great. Most the HOS are “silhouette progressive” where one items unlocks the second and so on. There is also the type where you find several pieces to an object in the scene and place them to a larger part. I happen to prefer the good old “list” version with some two steps but…..
Gameplay is in a woodland park and it appears to be morning. I ADORE when they put us in parks and campgrounds because it feels like we’ve travelled here to site see as well as solve a case!! I saw this done in BEYOND: LIGHT ADVENT, and PHANTASMAT 4 The dread of Oakville’s CE in the bonus section of this game…. So if you liked the demo to Enigmatis Mists… you may like the 2 others I have mentioned as well.
There are adorable woodland creatures around. It is daytime, sunny and bright.
The monster in this game is really stupid. It is a huge flying Raven… but game play is so fun I just wasn’t bothered by it.
Occasionally you have to go into the tunnels to talk to another character. Someone is locked in there and you compare notes with them. His voice acting is one of the best I’ve heard.
I, personally, didn’t think the CE bonus content was enough and didn’t purchase it at the time. Knowing the full game play of the SE though, I just may go back for it…. because the extra game play would actually be enough draw on this one.
The end of this game is great and gives you a shock!!
The first Enigmatis is set in beautiful Vermont in the fall… Even though it’s an older game now, if you liked this one I’ll be surprised if you don’t like the first one.
I think this game will appeal to children and adults alike. It is a game to replay in the future and one of my all-time favorites. It will bring hours and hours of fun.

****may contain spoilers*****
To see other reviews: click on the person's Big Fish ID/name in blue....
THIS GAME HAD THE BEST COLLECTABLE I HAVE EVER PLAYED..... IT HAD A PURPOSE, AND I REALLY FELT REWARDED!
With the release of the new MCF #12 Key to R., I'd realized I am a couple MCF behind...so I just finished both CE I own of MCF Escape from Ravenh, & this one Dire G Sacred G. waiting for the new one to come out in SE.
First of all... this is BY FAR the LONGEST game I have ever played. The SE took me-5 hrs, Bonus Play took-2 hrs 42 min, and Altern ending took- 1 hr 15min for the complete play gametime = 9- NINE hours! the bonus alone is around 4 hours between both bonus options. /which is 1 hr short of the main game! So for this ALONE... if you enjoyed the SE and are deciding to go back for a replay,,,,, this one is WELL WORTH YOUR PENNY!! I will talk more about the bonus play in a minute. But for now, these are the other things this CE has to offer.
I actually cringed when I saw the first cut scene with hunters holding guns. I've put this game off for a long time because I am a huge animal lover and not a fan of guns or traps in games. I am SO GLAD I played this game though, because the story isn't quite what it appeared to be. No animals are hurt, but one "spirit bear" is shot in the 1st Bonus play... -- yet he lives instead-- in the Alternate ending, way better. After I played the demo a bit, I realized the PUZZLE PIECES YOU COLLECT ARE FOR 4 JIGSAW PUZZLES YOU PUT TOGETHER IN THE SE. As you complete each puzzle you can SET A SCREENSAVER TO YOUR DESKTOP! Seriously.... I felt like I had collected and collected items from all these games for this very moment!! They had a purpose folks!! IT WAS SOOOOOO SMART AND SOOOO FUN to keep putting together the jigsaw picture so I could set the next screensaver. This is BY FAR the best collectable I've had in a game. The other Collectable being - I think there were 9 houses that morphed in some scenes and at the end there is a page for them where you can turn on/off the lights in the model houses, or a string of xmas lights, or car lights etc. very cute.
1. 5 SCREENSAVERS: - That double as collectable puzzle pieces. I ADORED this little hunt and was THRILLED when I thought they ended at 4 SS at the end of the SE, only to find there was a whole NEW puzzle in the Bonus Play! Sadly, though, I MISSED a piece and could not go back to get it when credits rolled after Bonus play #1 ended. SO. BE SURE TO LOOK FOR ALL THOSE PIECES BEFORE CREDITS using the WTG before the game end!! So I guess if I want the last Screensaver I will have to play the first bonus play again --which took me almost 3 hours to begin with! These also save to your computer's doc file
2. A 78 pg. /6 chapter/ and a bonus chapter Walkthrough Guide. Chapters 1-6/are 49 pgs & make up the Standard Edition. The 1st bonus chapter is from pgs.49-63/ where the puzzle pieces are from pgs 64-66/ Models you collect pg 67 and the 2nd bonus play or Alternate ending pgs 68-78.
3. 15 WALLPAPERS that save to ur doc file- but 2 remain locked until bonus completed- geez DEV... PLEASE LET US HAVE ALL GOODIES UP FRONT!!
4. 12 CONCEPT ART- saveable with Elephant Logo.
5. 5 MUSIC TRACKS- that save. I only noticed 2.... the typical MCF theme, and a song they used in the HOS that was driving me crazy.... I could not stand that HO song! for all Ho games it seemed to be the same song!
6. 10 Video cut scenes- but 2 are still locked after SE, need to complete bonus to get see them all again.
7. MORE ON THE BONUS PLAY- First of all, I don't feel the Standard edition ended making much sense. I feel like the "Alternate ending" your given may have been a Chapter 7 at one point for the SE and removed. The Alternate ending makes the entire convoluted story make sense. I just felt the SE storyline was a little discombobulated without that ending.
SO. ~IF YOU CAN~ PLAY ALT.ENDING- on the upper R in bonus BEFORE you play the BONUS PLAY. Because the bonus play story doesn't even make sense UNTIL you play the ALT ENDING- which I wish I'd played first to tie up the loose ends of the Standard edition.
CHAPTER 6 in the SE is absolutely gorgeous and most if not all the Alternated ending is replayed in this area. Most of the MG and HOs are ALSO SE repeats. You only have Bjorns squirrel once in the Alt ending where-as he is an adorable little helper ALL through the Bonus Play. You realize, or remember that is... your nemesis Alister from MCF Fates Carnival is in this game too...but I had forgotten him until his connection was mentioned in the Alternate ending.
8. BONUS PLAY- again, if possible play it AFTER the alternate ending. One is one the top of the Left column in Bonus and the Alt ending addl. play is on the Right column.
THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL BONUS' I'VE EVER PLAYED, and trust me, I have played A LOT!
If you play Alternate Bonus Ending first, it is a complete ending to the Standard Edition.
Then go on to the Bonus Play and you start out, it is 4 hours later, you are in your, literally, frozen car and find out there is another evil doer in town! He is called the Hermit, and you must find him so he stops controlling the minds of some of the previous characters we've met in the standard edition.
There are 14 new or revised to look new areas of play, I counted 10 new mini-games and only 3 new HOS. I wish that had been reversed. I WOULD BET, IF BIG FISH POLLED ITS CUSTOMERS, MOST OF US WOULD RATHER HAVE MORE HOS IN A HO GAME THEN THE MINIGAMES. I'm not quite sure why the genre of HO game ends up now a days being a MG- Adventure. But I digress.
I just can't tell you how gorgeous this game gets from Chapter 6 right on through for another approx.3 hours of bonus. It continues snowing but you are mostly in the area of the mist walkers turf which was just great.
I would have been really bummed if the Alt. Ending had been the only bonus play due to the repetition.... but you get every pennies worth in this CE.... because this Chapter /and it IS a Chapter or more/ is REALLY NEEDED to make this entire game, including the standard edition, to make sense.
9. Acheiv. Page... I personally feel Acheiv. are a waste of time in CE. Could care less. But for those of you who do.... I really don't know if completing these unlocks more or not.... I never completed. But-- one neat thing that is different-- Geez, you really do have to LOVE ELEPHANT FOR CE DETAIL.... There is a gorgeous little area Achievements are collected-- like in a Stonehenge picture. When you click on each Achievm. it has a little reward icon such as, one was a bronze owl, and it come up close for inspection when you click it.
DEAR ELEPHANT GAMES,
Holy Toledo I am such a fan of yours!! You did justice to the MCF, such a baby of Big Fish and you should be so proud! I wanted to take the time and thank you for 9 full hours of my life collecting those little jigsaw pieces and one by one going back to create my 5, count them, 5 screensavers!! I know this is stupid, but I feel like I won the lotto when I saw the first jigsaw turn into a SETTING for my desktop. YOU ALL GIVE SO much attention, detail, and LOVE to your games. I had such a blast in this GORGEOUS world of a game you created. Each and every one of you gets hugs from this Big Fish fan! Hats off to the Voice actors here, all A+. Tim Simmons, the voice of The Hermit, and Bjorn was SO WELL DONE!!// yes, I do read the credits....
btw... I recently saw one DEV add picts of the game Creators in the credits with what area of game they worked on and it WILL make people watch those credits.
FINALLY.... PLEASE ELEPHANT.... BRING US MORE LIKE THIS FOR COLLECTIONS, the jigsaw, to Screensavers!/ Morphs in each scene are also fun instead of the larger statues.
Thanks again Elephant- & Big Fish Games!!
I recommend this game!
