Isn't this like the 10985th sequel? It feels like it. It also feels like you had to play the others to really understand what's going on. The world is just so odd... I guess the art is nice but the story itself kinda puts you to sleep. It's a very mellow, kid friendly game. I guess you can play it before bed :)
I recommend this game!

Maybe I missed something (is this a part of a series?) but I found this game confusing. I felt like I've missed something and I was supposed to know who the characters are... I guess if that's what they were going for, confusion that is, then they succeeded. A lot of running even a couch potato can get tired :/
I don't recommend this game.

It was okay. No, really. I thought long and hard and it's all I could come up with... :) It was just okay. Nothing else.

They're always so highly rated but when I beging playing I realise I've made a big mistake... Maybe I'm just not into this series, or maybe the music just puts me to sleep. I don't know...
I don't recommend this game.

That was the least convincingly scary monster yet. It looks like a cockroach with a hoodie. That said, after the novelty of the light changing wore off I realised the game was a snoozer.
I don't recommend this game.

Amazing acting that makes this game both creepy and exciting. This is the future of HOGging. It is adventuring! I cant contain my excitement, I just hope this isn't a fluke and others will follow by example... A truly original, one of a kind game!
I recommend this game!

I don't like Mystery Trackers series. I've played many and was never impressed. I think of it as the poor man's version of MCF. The art is pretty but everything else is somehow boring... I don't know. To each their own.
I don't recommend this game.

I rarely give 5 stars but this time it is well deserved. The plot is enchantingly original, every scene is superbly detailed and artfully executed and the voice acting is (finally) spot-on! What more could I ask for? Except for a sequel, that is... :)
I recommend this game!

Even if the plotline wasn't perfect, the fact that this game is simply gorgeous is enough to warrant at least 4 stars from me! When you're not 'oohing' and 'ahing' about the scenery you can also enjoy some challenging puzzles and interesting dialogue. Really well done.
I recommend this game!
