I don't write many reviews because so many others do such a great job, but I definitely read them. I thought the first Rite of Passage game was ok, but had technical problems with it half way through (suddenly got the black side bars that I never had gotten before or since). So I was a little apprehensive about getting this one. However, I read the reviews and just had to try it. I LOVE THIS GAME !!
There are such fun things to do that you don't want to quit playing. I've been playing Hidden Object Puzzle games for several years and was getting a little burned out, but this game has brought me right back in. It is full of new types of HOS and puzzles that are so much fun you don't want to stop playing.
The graphics are great and the music is some of the best I've heard in these games. This developer will make the "Big Guys" stand up and take notice. Definitely developers to keep your eye on. Thank you devs for such a great job and thank you Big Fish for presenting it to us to enjoy.
I recommend this game!

With your carriage broken, and a wolf nearby, you must find shelter. What awaits you in the village just ahead?

I found this game to be a lot of fun when I knew what to do. The HOS scenes were fun and most of the games enjoyable. However, I found myself having to use the hint button much too often and even went through the last 1/4 of the game using the walkthrough. So many of the tasks were not handled in the way I would ever have thought to handle them and items were used in a way I would not have thought to use them. I'm not new to HOS/Adventure games, but had a hard time following this one. Again, when I knew what to do, it was a lot of fun.
I liked the storyline. It kept me coming back to the game and determined to finish it.
Try it for yourself. You might not have the same problem as I did and if not will probably find it a "great, fun game"
I recommend this game!

Put together the beautiful jigsaws included, or make your own new puzzles from photos or screen captures in Jigsaws Galore!

I believe this is only my second game review, but I had to give one for this game. I usually buy the HOPA games. I was looking for a relaxing game and this game had good reviews. I enjoy working jigsaw puzzles so decided to give it a try. I believe this is the best game I've gotten from BFGs and I've bought a lot of games. You can do so much with this game. You get to work over 200 of their puzzles, choosing the size and style of the pieces you want, get to have so many options for changes to make the puzzles more customized for you. Now I've discovered you can also make puzzles from any pictures stored on your computer, along with pictures you want to download from the internet. I was already addicted to the game, so you can imagine what has happened since I discovered that option. What fun working puzzles of your family, vacations trips, holiday and special days, etc. If you enjoy jigsaws, you will never get tired or bored with this game. The puzzle choices go on and on (with you choosing the puzzle pictures). I had also clicked on the screensaver option. I now come back to my computer to find the screen saver has randonly selected a puzzle from my pictures folder and was working it. What a fun thing to see. If you are even considering this game, go for it. I can't rave about it enough. Well done devs and thank you BFG for offering it.
I recommend this game!
