The demo wasn't bad, the reviews indicated it was a good one, but I found it dull, tedious and boring.
Game was loaded with tedious puzzles/mini games with limited instructions and not being a puzzle lover, I was glad for the option to change the skip to very fast. HOS were clever, but also a lot of them.
The story was so interrupted I actually lost track of what it was all about as I was chasing through scene after scene looking for and picking up items to take somewhere else. Transporter map was OK but the hint also worked. Also, way too many cut scenes and dialog for me...at least you could skip over those. Really glad I didn't pay full price for this.
I don't recommend this game.

Way too much dialog and tasks popping up. Game got really old really fast. So many confusing puzzles with limited instructions and HOS that the actual storyline got lost.
Very dark graphics it seemed you are operating in the dark or dim game boards. Basically, I was glad when it finally got over...very abruptly. Go here, pick this up, go somewhere else, pick that up...tiring. The transporter hint didn't always take you to the right area. HOS were dark with small objects.
Did not like this at all and glad I didn't pay full price.
I don't recommend this game.
A stunning puzzle-driven epic with an engaging storyline and exciting game play. Save Merlin and the mystical island of Avalon.

Boring and annoying mostly because of that voice that sounded like I was in first grade telling me how great I was.
No challenge, no nothing. I kept thinking it might turn into something but I couldn't even make it through the demo. I love match 3 and the good ones are hard to find and this one is totally lost. Not even worth a free credit.
I don't recommend this game.
Spin and place runes to make lines of three or more in Spooky Runes, a fun and thrilling game for the Halloween season!

Wow, I kept playing until the demo ended to find something not only challenging but fun about this match 3. I found nothing...very boring and repetitious and lacking in any strategy or challenge of any kind. And that voice that kept coming on saying "good job", one more to go...etc. I felt like I was in first grade.
Definitely NOT for me. I love match 3 and they are hard to find, but I'm not even hard up enough to spend a credit on this one.
I don't recommend this game.

I purchased this game without demo based on reviews and the need to purchase a game or lose my points so I wasn't really sure how it was going to work out. I was not disappointed.
The game had HOS which were unique, challenging and fun with an option for match 3. Some of the HOS were shadow, but most were very interactive which basically required you to find the first clue to make the others fall into place. I was able to set the skip and hint to 1 second because I'm not a puzzle person so I skipped most of the puzzles to move the game along, but the ones I did seemed easy but others took more time.
Transporter map was excellent as well as the hint would also serve as a transporter as well. Story line was a lot like all the rest anymore and I loved the cat "helper"..cute. Game was long with a lot to do so I kind of lost track of the story line so the ending was a bit confusing. I truly enjoyed this game...smooth flowing and you had to use your head a bit in some areas...not a hand-holding game.
I recommend this game!

Something awkward and clunky about this game. I could not even make it through the demo without feeling I was going to nod off. Takes several levels before you can start building anything and then that is even confusing.
WAY TOO MUCH dialog. Good grief. Seems to have an array of different HOS, etc to break the monotony of the match 3 part, but even those can't take away how slow and clumsy the match 3 is.
Basically, I would not even waste a credit on this unless I needed to keep it from expiring. I love match 3 and they are few and far between, but there are better ones out there than this one.
I don't recommend this game.

MAYBE I would have given this a 4 star if it wasn't so loaded with puzzle after puzzle. I'm not a puzzle lover and won't do a puzzle unless I can get through it quickly. A lot of HOS too, but you can switch to a very slow match 3 if you get tired of HOS.
Voice overs drove me nuts and way too much dialog and cut scenes. I guess the main thing they wanted to do with this game was to tell a story...sort of a dumb one.
On the other hand, it did bring in some Christmas spirit which was fun in August! Play the demo...you decide. Glad I didn't spend full price for it though.
I recommend this game!
It was supposed to be a routine mission. But when a dragon attacks your plane, crash-landing in a lush valley, you're drawn into the adventure of a lifetime!

I have all the Myths of the World series, but I can't say this is one of the best. Way too much dialog, the voice overs were awful and irritating. Nothing worse than a whiny little girl trying to fake an accent.
I set my game play in options to custom so I could lower the skip/hint speeds which really worked well as the hint works as a transporter hint instead of constantly have to open the map.
There were a lot of puzzles which could be very interesting for a puzzle love for which I am not. If I can't do it quickly, I don't do it so the quick skip refresh was a lifesaver. HOS scenes were different but a bit tricky. Story was dorky and I skipped all the endless dialog and cut scenes...you didn't miss much unless you are into the story.
Graphics/animations were good, but a little to colorful at times. It was an OK game especially since I was able to get it on sale. Don't know if I would have paid full price or even used a credit.
I recommend this game!

Lasted less than a minute...really dorky music which I immediately turned off and every time a jewel moved it was ching, ching, ching, and then when you finished the level...people clapping. Twirly, twisty jewels...I felt like I had fallen in a glitter jar.
So many better "jewel" type match 3 out there.
I don't recommend this game.

Timed game with no option for relax...not for me. It was also a very awkward game requiring you to click on everything. Choppy...I guess I'm the lone ranger with this review but there are better, more organized time management games out there to spend my money on.
I don't recommend this game.
