I really enjoyed this game. It was different that the other hidden object games I played. This game you find objects that you need to use to progress to the next object.
The story line is really great. It's one of the few that I actually didn't skip through.
I played this game on expert level, where there are no hints. The didn't present my any challenges.
In all I really did enjoy this game.
I recommend this game!

This game didn't take me that long to play. I liked the storyline. It was easy to follow. The hidden objects were actually really easy to follow. The puzzles were simple to solve as well. I really prefer to have some challenge when I play these games, but overall it was good.
I recommend this game!

I honestly hate giving bad reviews. I tried playing this game twice, thinking maybe it was me the first time around. It wasn't. I didn't care for the way dialog. Also the hidden object items were so hard to see.
I only bought this game due to the television show. The storyline showed the characters from the show. But it was more like cut and paste photos.
I don't recommend this game.

I'm the kind of person that wants to play all the games in a series. In this game, you are traveling through 5 doors in the past. I found that the game had bright, beautiful colors.
The storyline didn't hold my attention too much. The level of challenge was fairly easy. I only used the hint one time during the game.
I would suggest this a game for a beginner. It doesn't pose much difficulty. I flew through this game pretty fast. But was enjoyable.
I recommend this game!

This game wasn't one of my highest ranked games. The hidden objects were extremely well hidden! I found myself looking harder for some items that ever before. I'm not complaining, because I really do enjoy the challenge that it presented.
Where I found issue with the game, it was the cutscenes. I found these to not be exciting. They didn't capture my interest at all. I ended up skipping through them.
The puzzles, I really enjoyed. I was capable of working through them without of any use of hints.
I would say that this would be a great game for a beginner.
I recommend this game!

I really enjoyed this game. The graphics were really good. I enjoyed the storyline as well. I like the fact that you can speed up the dialog. I enjoy this aspect of the games, but sometimes, it just takes too long.
I did, only once, play the match 3 game, instead of the hidden object. My suggestion is to stick with the hidden objects. The match 3 game was hard.
I recommend this game!

I got this game just by the reviews. I normally don't go off of reviews when picking games, but this time I did. Trust me when I say, it was a great move!
The storyline was really good. I enjoyed the make believe world that was created. The coloring was bright and cheerful. The cutscenes were also great. It was entertaining and easy to follow.
The puzzles were all fairly easy. I only had to use my hint once. That was because I couldn't see a lizard. The hidden objects were fairly easy to see.
This was by no means a challenging game, but it was fun. I will one day replay this game again.
I recommend this game!

I really did enjoy this game. The challenge level was fairly good. The hidden objects were easy to find with an exception to a couple. The puzzles didn't present a huge challenge. They were hard to solve. The storyline was bad. The cut scenes were good.
In all this was a lengthy game. Which I do like. The challenge factor wasn't that hard. I would recommend this game to anyone that isn't looking for anything that not too hard, but relaxing!
I recommend this game!

I really enjoyed this game. The storyline was good. The cut scenes were also good. Some of the hidden objects were difficult to find. On one occasion, I had no idea what I was actually looking for. Another, you were looking for a beard, only when I used the hint it was a moustache.
The puzzle games were great. There was two that presented some difficulties. But then who wants to play a game where the puzzles are easy to solve.
In all, this is a great game. It took me a full day to play. (This included cooking dinner and chores.)
I recommend this game!

The hidden objects in this game were fairly simple to find. A few of the puzzles had some complexity to them. I had to use the hint twice during this game.
The cut scenes were not the best. The story line wasn't that great either, but then I didn't pick this game for those reasons. I did, however, enjoy this game. It was fairly long. It allowed me to play for the weekend. (In between doing work around the house.)
I would suggest this game to anyone that has time to just kill and not into storylines.
I recommend this game!
