My first turn off was the stewardess and the skimpy outfit. I was afraid the rest of this was going to be a turnoff - and it was. I admit, having just now read the reviews that say it will get better, perhaps I quit too soon. However, there were constant arrows and directions telling me what to do next. I would find things at a site and the list of what I found included things I had not found! I couldn't figure out why I was being sent back and forth between the airplane and the ship, why I had to search for things I was told to search for, why I was told I found things I hadn't found - I finally just said a nasty word or two and uninstalled it.
I never did get to any indication I could or should buy anything.
I don't recommend this game.

I loved the clean, clear graphics. There were a few semi-difficult things to find but in general, if I took the ime I could find what I wanted.
I liked the change of pace while playing - putting several things together to make something, having a section that wasn't totally visable and that contained 3 items, a good assortment of mini-games,.
Could it have been more? sure. But it was difficult enough to hold my attention without driving me nuts, it was not dark and full of horror.
indeed, it felt like a family vacation! I liked my hour to test it and am glad I bought it!!
I recommend this game!

I had a bit of a problem at first with using the shapes for everything. But with time, I got better. I liked being able to play another type of game to get more hints - and toward the end I needed them!
I loved the play and will play any other Magic Encyclopedia games for the one hour to determine if they are as much fun as this one was!
I recommend this game!

Looking at the 3 pictures in the into to this game, I wasn't sure what this was all about. I decided to try it and love it.
The game becomes more difficult as it progresses but it gets you ready for the next step very well. You can make it harder if you want the challange level but that is not for me yet!
I recommend this game!
