We, who have played the "City of fools", and loved it, have been waiting for a sequel (of some sort). Seeing this game made me giddy with the thought of having my desires met.
Starting well, with a great plot, I was somewhat in shock to find a quick to play, quick to finish game. The game is great, for what is is. But it left me with, what can be likened to, a back scratch that lasts just long enough to hit the itch, and then leave you just as fast. I am now wishing to see another sequel to finish my itch. Good to buy when drops in price, or as a freebie

I read the reviews and figured "Oh... what the heck"
I generally do not care for fractured object games, unless well carried out. This game hits the mark. Colorful scenes and a riveting storyline. Bright, cheery, smooth, and no
witches, ghosts, demons, spell casting, sorcery, religious (druid, Aztec, black magic etc.) ceremonies. Me want more, more, more!
Not a long game, but that's good; because I will play this many more times. Just plain fun.

I agree with many of the reviews regarding the pace of this game. It proceeds at a slow steady pace, and stays that speed, for the most part. Complaints about getting food? I have had no problem, once you learn how to make use of the various buildings, and equipment. I like the game and have made advancement. So I rate it a pretty good, slow and steady, spare time, game.
I recommend this game!

I have to agree with so many reviewers, that this game could have had a bit more to it. It ended at a point that made me think ...."Is that all?' Still the visuals were great. Only a few glitches that seemed out of sync. When you raked, or dusted an object, the underlying new item, would take a second to appear. Kind of ruined the gorgeous surroundings. The ending, I will not ruin, also seemed to leave me with a small letdown. No bonus play as well. Still, I have played it through a couple of times and it delights in most areas. Game play was simple and a bit too easy. Those type of games have their place in my world so I did not mind it.
I recommend this game!

This is me favorite kind of game. No demons, no fairies, no black or white magic, no bloody gruesome images per se. This is much more refined. A game of old fashion murder and intrigue, tastefully done. Oh.... there are sinister looking people, surprises of every sort, twists and turns galore too. But the basic storyline is, just a really, really, great murder mystery, with all the ends tied up by the end of the bonus material. Bravo! May we have more like this?

To start out, may I just say, that this game must "not" be taken seriously in any way, shape, or manner. It is out of control, childlike "time passing histerics". And this is why I scored it as I have. Perfectionists (and gamers) will hate it. If you just want to get away from the humdrum of life and have a fairly good time, this is the game to play. Simple gameplay and not difficult by any stretch of the imagination. Easy ridiculous fun!
I recommend this game!

First of all, thank you Big fish games for getting this awesome game. This is the most fun you can ever have on a computer and Big fish has a ton of great ones. As the levels increase, so do your defensive abilities (talkin some pretty awesome gadgets here) . And so as not to get stale in any way, you get crazy variations in the game. One variation is a version of wack a mole but it's zombies coming up from graves. Just get it.... nuff said!!!
I recommend this game!

The good
Story is intriguing as are all the storylines in this series. The artistry is inviting and detailed as you would expect, if you are familiar with the Awakening games at all.. The hint on casual fills fast. The gameplay flows but....
That brings us to the bad
Sometimes using an object is a, "did I do this right" frustration. Slow at times when you commit to an action, while waiting to see if the outcome was performed correctly.
There was a lack of direction at quite a few times; but the hints and ? help feature cleared things up, for the most part.
Now for IMO ugly
Whoever designed the mini games must have had, either, not finishing the game in mind for us, or driving us insane. I understand that the princess speaks a different symbolic language than I do but the puzzles were so bizzare and at times outright complicated or frustrating. And there were hundreds of them (it seemed). I ended up cheating on about a quarter of them just to get to the end of the game. I hate to do that but they just kept springing up and were not easy to figure out.
All said, I did like the game enough to give it my 4 star rating but PLEASE (I beg you) enough of the overpowering mini(s) for the next installment.

Not difficult but not boring. That's a good combination for just plain fun. Music is delightful. The graphics are excellent. The story carries itself well. There are not a ton of hidden objects. I have played it through twice and will do so a bunch more times. If you like a huge challenge though, you may be disappointed. Still, a lot of fun for most.
I recommend this game!
