I enjoyed this game. I liked the characters, the puzzles, the HO games, everything. It wasn't good enough to get 5 stars, but almost.
I recommend this game!

This was a good HO title. Fun to play and with good puzzles. The story was ok, but the player's "reason" for finding the Wanderer really didn't seem to fit. You don't have to keep the Wanderer from "the dark side." I like that there was a map so you don't have to back track.
I recommend this game!
It's the end of the world... at least in Oakville.

I wish this had been longer! The HOS were done very well and there was a good variety to them - morphing objects, silhouettes, lists - I enjoyed that. The story was pretty interesting. Hard to tell, at first, who was alive or dead, good or evil. Well done. I recommend this game.

A peaceful day at the park becomes a journey into the surreal when you become the latest victim of a troubled artist's deal with Death!

I really enjoyed this game! It was nice and long, there were lots of places to go. In fact, thank goodness for the map; it would have been tedious moving from screen to screen. I had to keep some notes - what was needed and where. There were times when I received something that I didn't need for a while and there were times when I knew I needed something but didn't get it for a long time! So, it was easy to forget which item was to be used where! Well worth the money. I recommend it.
I recommend this game!

This is a good HO game. I did find some of the mini-puzzles fairly hard and I found myself using the hint button more than I should have. There was a lot of moving from place to place looking for items you needed in order to continue. It was not an intuitive game for me; sometimes you can see what you need and you know where to find it; not this game. The graphics and sound were good; I did not have to turn the music off. I "bought" this game with a game credit and it was worth it.
I recommend this game!

I really enjoyed this HOG. I didn't play in the "Casual" mode, which is a first for me. But, it was fine. I didn't need any sparkly areas to tell me where to look next. The HINT button was great although it didn't work for the mini-puzzles, and there were a few where I really could have used it! The story line was interesting, music ok, graphics good - not too dark. My only problem came with the ending. When I finished the final puzzle, the demon was defeated but I don't know why or how!?! And, the ending was just too abrupt, a few pictures only with no dialog. Maybe it was my computer or a flaw in the down load, but I did find the ending to be disappointing. I'm going to get the next one with one of my game credits; I'm looking forward to it.
I recommend this game!
