This is one of the best games (demo) I have come across in quite some time. I am usually able to finish a demo in the time given but not on this one. This one was fun, interesting, challenging, visually stunning and just overall fantastic!! This is a definite buy for me and I usually wait for a while before I purchase a game. You can't go wrong on this one. A great addition to the Witches' Legacy series....all I have left to say is, "Have fun and ENJOY!!"
I usually buy the 'Collector Edition' games. Normally when a game like this comes out that has no CE I don't even stop and look. The title caught my eye so I opened it, looked at the pics and video clip. I was pretty sure that this was something that I would enjoy and I was right. I knew within the first 10 minutes that I was going to purchase this game. I don't submit reviews for games very often but I felt like this SE game that truly plays like a CE game deserved these 5 Stars and this great review!!
The game has 4 difficulty levels, Casual, Advanced, Expert and Custom. There are no collectible objects or morphing items but once I started playing, I really didn't miss them. The graphics and fantastic, background music is pleasant and easy to listen to without interfering with game play. Sound effects and the voice overs are really great!
So those of you that mostly CE players as well as the rest of us, give this great game a chance and you will not be disappointed!!
I recommend this game!

I was browsing through the "Felix's Favorites" for another GREAT game to play when I came across this MCF game that I had somehow missed when it first came out. I played about 5 minutes of the demo and that was all it took for me to click the 'BUY' button. If you have never played one of the Mystery Case File #MCF# games then you don't know what you're missing! They are all great but this is one of the best! These games have it all; graphics, storyline, characters, sound, effects and more. I always look forward to exploring the new releases and specials everyday. Today, I am happy that I decided to stray from my normal routine!
I recommend this game!

This is a great game! The graphics are great, the VO's are on spot and the HOS's are just right. Good storyline. I only purchased the SE but I wish now that I had bought the CE. The SE was quite lengthy and I can only imagine that the CE would have added so much too that! Definitely worth every penny. This game held my attention to the very last scene and definitely left me looking forward to another game by this developer!
I recommend this game!

I have played several games with 'sisters' in them but this has to got to be my favorite so far!
The hidden object scenes are few enough that you are not bogged down with them. The mini-games are relative to the scene you are playing and lots of fun on-top-of-that! The storyline is interesting and the characters are colorful and fun.
When I make it to the end of the demo hour on a game without even realizing it, it is always a good indication that I will enjoy the game. Have fun and enjoy!
I recommend this game!

I was sadly disappointed in the storyline and speed of this game. I own most of the previous Echoes games and I have enjoyed them all until now.
This games starts off agonizingly slow. I played for about 20 minutes and just couldn't take it any longer. I usually go by the reviews on a game before I play it and this one had really high reviews.
Maybe the game gets better later on, but I just was so bored to the point that I was at that I simply didn't go any further. If you are a beginner, then you might enjoy this game. The mini-games I encountered were way easy.
Not giving it a thumbs-down but not giving it a thumbs-up either.

From the same creator as the Syberia series and the Amerzone game series, this game is exceptional! Attention to detail at it's best!! Super graphics, engaging characters, suspense, mystery, this game has it all. A must for adventure lovers.
