Another great game & although a few disagree for what appear petty reasons,eg doesn't fill screen,I have 24" wide screen & it fills mine & coins hard to find??? I only moved over screen & hand showed where they were very easy so I thought well worth CE price,great storyline & well told,graphics could be made brighter (great idea) & good length & map so I can't see ANY reason for all the complaints
Well done developer & BFG again,twice in a week,keep'em coming & us regulars will keep buying
I recommend this game!

Lovely storyline & well told in beautiful scenery & although a couple of glitches which were soon fixed it was a great challenge & thinking without too much hand holding which I know has had complaints but if you don't want a game to use your brain I say don;'t buy it,WELL DONE developers & BFG for another great game
I recommend this game!

Very disappointing after No.2, No help in Strat guide or useless map,NOT worthy of CE game,one of the worst I've ever played
A bright miss mass does not make up for a GOOD story
This developer can usually be relied on but NOT anymore obviously
I don't recommend this game.

After being left UK for over 40 years I thought this would be a nice memories game but apart from opening scene which was typical Northern,the rest was plain boring,hard to find objects & NO voices completely spoilt it
Developers go back to the drawng board,even many kids games are better than this
Slow moving from scene to scene
I don't recommend this game.

Absolutely great game,one of the best I have played & KUDO'S to developers,hope to see many more,this is very different & great fun,I was hooked very quickly as a' must have' game & many of my friends also,it also has great re-play value
To me all pro's & no con's verywell made & no constant running round for one item as the norm but clearly marked on map as each section unlcked
Can't wait for more games from this company
I recommend this game!

Great game,only real draw back was as usual these daysthat the developers are all trying to make thier games appear
longer by putting in far too much going back & forth for one item at a time
Games of thisstandard make a name for themselves even without being over long,This was a Number 1 storyline & beuutifully put together,Love Romance,suspense & longing to get the bad guy,although we knew who it was we needed to find proof
Kudos to the developers but less running around please in anymore of these great games
I recommend this game!

One of the better games of late at normal price,it keep the interest as no clue to the ending until it happened,rather on the easy side for hog players but very relaxing after the rather gloomy "dark" stories of late,the puzzles middle range although a couple of new ones,the graphic & sound excellent & music very fitting if turned down
Rather on the short side as only came out less than 6 hours ago & have had several interuptions so I would say 2 hours for average player,didn't really need hint at all
An all round good game,Well done developers & more like it please & Kudos to you
I recommend this game!

This is to cover AL of this great series as many of us hav read the books & the games have ALL been top class & popular with us die hard HOG players,the storylines have been No1 & very well done,my only down comment is that like most games now a lot of needless going back & forth for one item to go back where you were to use it,this is obviously done to make game appear longer but with this series NOT needed,the game itself is enough & as I usually buy CE version the length is great without this needless part to it so hope in future this will be made more practical,nice creepy games
Kudos to developers
I recommend this game!

deserved & would have got 5 star from me BUT the sparkling book in left corner at bottom very distracting & annoying & as I never use these a waste of space,the Statergy guide is much more help for those who ned is & as it is becoming more often we are seeing things like this in games I hope the developers do see our reviews,as if they continue sales will drop,I buy a LOT of BF games,most days in fact but these type are becoming more annoying to often don't even finish the game
A great game spoilt
I don't recommend this game.
