While certainly not the most sophisticated game available here, it is lots of fun for or with kids. I've played with my grandson several times and he really likes the game. So I agree with the other reviewer that it's kind of a kiddie game. And for that specific purpose, I give it 4 stars.
I recommend this game!

First, it will only play in a window on my monitor. That makes the really bad graphics even worse. I deleted after about 5 minutes. The game is impossible to play and probably is not much better if you could get it to play full screen.
I don't recommend this game.

Game length is as important to me as visuals, challenges, story line, etc. I thought the graphics were quite good. Mini-games in the demo were good, but you've seen them before: pipes, key tumblers, switch combinations, etc. But I did the demo, without hints or skips in 40 minutes. Examining the walkthrough says this is about a 2 hour game for me. With a new game everyday, plus a backlog of games I'm still wading through, there isn't enough here to put it on my buy list.
I recommend this game!

Funny characters, good art, snarky bad guy and lots of fun. This is a good quality game, But I think children might enjoy it more than adults. But with many games at BFG incorporating scary stories and scenes, this one shouldn't be missed by anyone with children/gradnchildren. Decent length as well.
I recommend this game!

An example here of different games appealing to different gamers. I liked this game a lot. Lots of adventures to do, good HOS. My only problem here is the length. I got through 4 chapters out of 7 in the demo hour. The walkthrough shows I'm a bit over half way. I just won't buy games I can finish in 2 hours. But I liked everything else about the game.
I don't recommend this game.

The story we've seen before. Agent dies under mysterious circumstances and partner must solve the mystery. I thought the graphics were quite good. The HOGs had a bit of a twist finding some by description and some by silhouette. Mini-games were few and far between and not that difficult. Voiceovers were OK, music got tiresome quickly. The only real problem I had was length. I finished 2 of 6 chapters in 45 minutes without hints. So even as an SE, don't think I'll buy.
I don't recommend this game.

This is a simple HOG and some items are difficult to find. Every 6 or so HOS, there is a simple mini game. There is just nothing to redeem this game with all of the other great games out there.
I don't recommend this game.
Search for clues, solve puzzles, and unlock new areas as you visit spooky locations, master mini-games and locate Hidden Objects!

The game is great. There are some great mini games. The HOS are not too difficult. But, without using the hint ever, I was 1/2 way done at the end of the demo hour. Maybe it's just me, but I want more than 2 hours out of a game.
I recommend this game!

I liked this game. The HOGs were good, some interactive. The story moved along. But I was 1/2 way through in 45 minutes. Same problem as the other game in this series. Wish this would have been a lot longer so I could have recommended it.
I don't recommend this game.
