I love this family as this is my favorite. Have I played too many of these that makes it too easy - I dont think so. I was at Level 12 in no time doing each puzzle in record time.
There was a few changes. It shows what your screen will look like using different squares. Also when you made a mistake you could do a few more on purpose and get the question to fix everything. Before you had to remember the answer or look it up. Now the book icon is right there and you can look up the answer which almost felt like cheating.
I like the ideal of having something to work for and that is why I like the puzzle at end of each level. Even then they seemed too easy. I was solving them too quickly. I hope it gets harder.
I was unable to play the last game that was put out at Christmas due to technical problems - sadly. This one I had no problems so far on Windows 10. Although I did notice that usually on the screen where you buy gifts (and where is a family member no where around) you could click on the picture where you get badges and see what they were. They are have completed a certain level or buy all gifts. It did not work on my game. I would automatedly get a badge but had no ideal what it was for.
I woke up this morning excited like Christmas day because I had heard Christmas Wonderland 10 came out today.
For those who have played before it is the same setup and noticed no changes in anything except story. Hidden objects followed by mini - games. I personally LOVE all of it. I like to play each hidden object screen several times. Although there are some of the same items to find there are a few different things and it makes the game last longer.
The only reason I did not give 5 stars is the music. It is the same track used for all their games but it really needs an update. I like to have the music on to hear the sound when you find an angel. Lol.
Now to decide how to buy. A BOGO today or Day 7 surprise gift. (although note it is off retail price not member price). So I am off to Wonderland.
These are my favorite games. Perhaps those who have reviewed did not notice that you can change the backscreen. No dots if you dont like. Also I love using the squares in the cheese design. It makes all the rest of the colored stones different. There is a room to buy decorations that are really fun this time. (a little different but will not spoil).
My favorite is the puzzle to do at the end of each page. Also if you make a mistake and dont want to start over just make a few more mistakes and you can answer a question and get it all fixed. Would have given a 5 but they still dont label the pictures and the dancing paint bush needs to give it a rest. .
These are my favorite Mosaics. It gives you something to work for to do the puzzle at end of each group which I love. Some are very easy and some are hard - love it.
You can also buy items for their living room as you get points which is cute.
Only reason I cant give a five is I hate the dancing paintbrush although I have tried to not look at it. Also the pictures are not labeled. You can usually figure out most but not always.
I still got with the BOGO sale. Almost forgot dont forget you can change your background and mosaic pieces. Using the square with black dots is the best for me.
I love these type of games so I did give gave a try. Leaves being one of my favorite games I have played like this. It took a moment to understand that you cant actually move the inventory item to where you need but click on it and then click place it is to go.
It would have been nice if more color and design was used to be more pleasant to look at. The hint button to me was of no real help although it does light up places in yellow.
So after a bit I had to go to a Walkthrough online which by the way was wonderful. I may get later with a coupon only.
I played the whole game and bonus chapter in one evening. I found he game a lot of fun and interesting. I am a puzzle girl and but would have liked more puzzles but still some were challenging.
Do note there is no way to tell if you found the morph or not and when you finish game you can not go back and get them as some games. There are achievements but fairly simple ones that you get just playing the game. I missed out on the morph one.
SPOILERS: Yes this is just a game but because I have horses I didn't like having to wait so long to free the horse. Although I did get to give him hay. Lol
I have never been to a Casino so I dont know why I enjoyed this game but I did. It was not really exciting but for me it worked at this time. Sometimes I like fast action, scary or just hunt for items. It was just relaxing I guess. I purchased with a BOGO so would not have paid full price. I like puzzles so this game had plenty. I didn't really care for getting a item and then next click I had to use it. That was done quit a few times. I like to at least have to think what to do with it for a bit.
To not be let down there was: oil for rust, an umbrella to reach, feeding of an animal, paper and pencil for copying, screwdriver to remove screws (for a while now a screwdriver was replaced in games with a coin and I even used an earing once. I sure was proud but this time a different item was used.) I wont say what it was to spoil the fun. LOL
I played the demo and it was ok. The reason I did not purchase this game and the past one was the size of the curser. I feel like I am dragging a big old shoe around. It is an inch in size. Just my thing. Also I did not like that the game made you buy upgrades or do a puzzle if you didn't want to at that time. Should be an option to do later.
I loved this game. It was in the present time which I like. Playing a fantasy game is fine once in a while but seems to be all there is.
Enjoyed the storyline. I will admit the mini-games (which are my favorite in a game) were mostly embarrassingly easy but then there were some games I have seen before. So I forgive them for the easy.
Hope this game continues with Part #3 later in the year.

I usually like these games so gave the demo a try. The music to me was awful so that was turned off quickly. The deal breaker for me was no way that I could find to change the curser. I felt like I was dragging a car around. It was much to large in my opinion and no change option. I also felt the game was way too easy so I will not be getting this one.
