Excellent Time Management games are few and far between. Hooray for Roads of Rome.
The game is really challenging if you play the Hardest level. It takes a lot of thought and coordination to get through each level if you want to come in under time, remembering to find the hidden caches.
But it has 3 easier levels, one untimed, for those that want more relaxed play.
I love this game.
I recommend this game!

If you love games like Machinarium, you'll love this beautiful and unusual and mind-bending game.
It's very challenging, in a way that so many games these days are not! And the artistic presentation is lovely. These really unusual and thought provoking games are few and far between.
I absolutely love it.
I recommend this game!

Finally something different. I have over 100 games, mostly HOG. The surprise has gone.
I decided to try this from the reviews that praised its originality. For that reason alone I tried it.
I love it. It's fun. The story is typed and spoken beautifully. Give it a go.
I recommend this game!

Wonderful new game. I absolutely love it.
The HOS scenes are just a bit different to usual; much more to do than just find the object.
The puzzles aren't that hard, but again, just different enough to appreciate how these developers are really trying to mix it up!
I play A LOT of these games, and any difference, or fresh perspective on an old formula, is very welcome.
The graphics are lovely. The 'helper' talks and leads and helps; different from the usual animal that just attends to your tasks.
I highly recommend this game.
Wonderful!!

I play A LOT of these games, and anything with a bit of difference to the others is always welcome.
STORY:
The story is our usual Royal family in distress with a dark magic twist. You are a female healer, here to help. I don't take a lot of notice of the story lines any more......there is a lot of same old same old...
HOPS and MINI GAMES: It's the games and HOPS that do it for me. Here there is enough invention in the mini games to warrant some surprise; and the HOPS have a little extra twist to them. I love anything in these two areas that causes me to think a bit more out of the usual.
GRAPHICS: they're quite lovely! Lovely colour tones and sharp enough.
MUSIC and SOUNDS: Not annoying is a good thing for me!
OVERALL: I really am enjoying it so far. It has 3 difficulty level. I always play the hardest mode, and, unlike some other games, it doesn't give you any obvious prompts; which is as it should be. This game is just different enough to put it's head above the usual games.
I recommend this game!

A good story. A father disapproves of his daughters involvement with a supernatural creature, it's all downhill from there. She finds ways to help him. Only based on demo.
Played on difficult. Still too many hints. Graphics are nice if a little stilted.
I recommend this game!
