loved it, at first. played the trial..purchased it. then after about 15 minutes of play, need more of one of the drinks for customer, in level 4. I ran out of drinks, and then the case of drink would come to the ice chest but no matter what I do it wont 'unload; out of case into the ice. and I tried several time, I can not make it happen. skipped rest of level four. same issue in level 5. went looking for help...not help for this game.dont know what to say, I've played dozens of this type game and this the first time Ive been stumped.

at a point in the game I became stuck..and so finially went to the menu - game help...it didn't help, it shows a broom, leaning against the wall to pick up, well my broom is in the frame where you put the heart, it is a whisk broom not a full length broom and NOTHING I do will give me the broom. Finially I go to the forums to see who else is having trouble..there isn't a forum for this game....whats with that...I am disgusted, and unhappy. I buy a collectors edition, and this is what a get a whole lot of frustration. not having fun...I do not recommend this game
Without warning, a group of mysterious figures arrives and reduces your village to flames and rubble. What do they want... and who is controlling them?
This was the BEST game I have EVER played...it was fun, just challenging enough....so VERY different.. I LOVED it. I went looking to see if there were MORE of Dark Realm, anything I would have bought them all..at full price or whatever. I thought it was the best thought out game of this type I have ever played....MORE MORE!!!
Cruel beings have devastated a floating island leaving its peaceful populace helpless in the face of war. Conquer the evil scourge and repair the land!
I am sure this is terrific game. If I could figure out how to play it. I have never, ever played a game that had me stuck right out of the gate. I am bumbling along, but I am almost ready to toss in the towel...a nice set of instructions, not the irritating pop ups, would be so helpful. I really have tryed, and having never given up on a game before. I can't decide if I am dumb or the game is dumb...but I can figure out that without some seroius help or a magic potion I'm done
I don't recommend this game.

THIS IS NOT FREE!.....I was so excited to see a new Awakening game...then its one of these NEW AWFUL "FREE" games, that aren't free....if Big Fish doesn't figure out a way for us to NOT get notices about "FREE" games....I may have to find a new game source....this really really is not right...yes I know you can play it without buying stuff, but whats the chance of doing that...this is a real money maker for them, and I understand that as well, having my own business for over 44 years...but this is NOT how to have happy customers...GRRRRRRRRRRRRR

If these games were able to be returned this one would go back. It may be a great game, but I played for less than ten minutes, and should have quit at two. First, I have NO clue what to do or why, finally figure out I need to have the sound on. Which I prefer not to do. And then I'm underground and because of the way its done, you really feel like you're underground, which is probably a huge plus for most folks, but NOT is you are clostrphobic. And worst is the way you follow the curser made me very very seasick. I will not be able to play this even IF I could figure out what it is one is supposed to be doing. I would like to have know this before I bought it. Some folks can't play this type of game. Like me. THIS get a minus 10 from me. Now I think I'll go lay down and try to get the room to stop.
