When I first saw the low star rating I was hesitant to even play this game let alone buy it. But, I'm so glad I did both. This was a very relaxing game. (Re: I ignored the timer :-) ) The mini games were fun and so were the different things to do in the scenes. I also appreciated how clear and bright the scenes were. So, if you like the classic HO games, then you will definitely enjoy this one.
When I saw that this game only had an average of 3 stars I was surprised because it is a very nice, fun, relaxing Hidden Object game. I love the whole series of Faircroft's Antiques games and this one is no exception. I honestly cannot understand the low ratings. If you love the old fashion HO games, then try this one for yourself and don't let the negative ratings discourage you. I almost did, wondering what was wrong with this one that it would warrant such low ratings. I am so glad I tried it and ended up buying it. I sure hope the manufacturer does not get discouraged by the low ratings and keeps them coming for those of us who love it.
Wow, I was surprised low the low ratings on this game. I found it to be very fun. The puzzles were fun, different, and very unique. I absolutely loved this game and had a blast playing it. I'd love to see more like this... without the voodoo dolls and curses. Those were the only things I didn't like about it. Quite honestly, I'm sick of games that are all about curses, zombies, werewolves, evil spells, bones, dead bodies etc. I wish Big Fish would come out with more family oriented games. Like the Big City Adventure games, Gardenscapes, Mystery PI etc.
While I agree with the other reviewers that some things are hard to find, I am thouroughly enjoying this game. Granted, the other two Christmas Wonderland games are better, but this one is different, which it should be. I only hope that there's a 4th, 5th etc.
Travel back in time and save the ones you love in this Hidden-Object Adventure game! Switch between 1912 and the modern day as you play in 2 time periods.
I love this game. As an author my mind is constantly challenged and working. So I enjoyed this nice, relaxing game. I have enough challenges to contend with, so I was relieved to find a HOG that I didn't have to go searching hard and long for things and it wasn't a go here, go there, go back here, like so many of them are now. Keep the nice simple HOG games coming Big Fish Games. Not everyone wants to have to think hard all the time. Sometimes we just want to relax. Thanks!
