In my opinion, the games of Drawn (the 3 originals) is the best and most creative series to date (although the original Moritmer Beckett games come in a close 2nd). I have played all the original Drawn games many times. I've noticed some minor changes in the game. They have added morphing objects as well as collectibles in the scenes (did not need these). There is more "hand holding" in Re-Drawn vs. the original. I felt I had to think more with the original game. Re-drawn is more vibrant and has added dialogue. I liked some, but not all, of the changes. Regardless, it is a MUST play.
My only hope is that the developers/BF will give us a whole NEW original Drawn series. That would be GREAT.

While I did buy it and play, I really did not enjoy this game as well as all the others in the series. The story line was too supernatural for me. I was hoping for something more "Friday the 13th or Scream."

Thank you very much Brave Giant (and how happy I am that it's not another Domini game). I did not think this was a kids game at all. I loved everything about it (yes, it is a little slow moving).
Thank you for no ghosts, portals or dark story.
Very refreshing.

This series, created by BoomZap, is one of the best series I've every played. Just finished playing this one for the 3rd time.
Devs...PLEASE make more Dana Knightstone.
Must try them all.
All I can say is everything about these games is great.

I'm enjoying this game. I usually buy/play almost all of Domini's games. I don't recall having tech issues with their games, but this one has them. Cannot purchase items with the tokens I earned...when I click on the token icon, I move into the "closet", but when I click to purchase an item, nothing happens. We pay more for CE games to get all these extra bonuses - They should all work!

I was shocked to see all the bad reviews. I am thoroughly enjoying this game. Some of the mini-games are new (I've never seen before). Story and graphics are great. Don't let the bad reviews lead you astray.. give it a chance.
I recommend this game!

I guess this game is a must try first. I was hesitant after so many bad reviews, but I'm really enjoying this game.
I am a huge fan of very bright, colorful games.
I'm a little confused as well regarding how Walter fits into this story as Miranda is married to Bernard (and, Bernard does make a comeback.) Hoping all gets explained as the game progresses.
