I'm playing in the relaxed mode as my hands are not that fast anymore. Loved the game but, hated the sand. Seems to me once you cleared the sand in one spot it just kept coming back. This was the NOT FUN part for me.
I recommend this game!

This is one of a few games where I have left the music on!!
Great color, animation, sound and voice overs. Loved everything about this game. Can't wait for the next in this sequel. Thanks BF.

Yes, some of the puzzles were too long for me so I skipped them. The HO's were fun. Liked the story, turned off the music after awhile. Sad I couldn't find 2 of the monies and 1 flower.
I recommend this game!

I played until the trial ran out. I liked the game overall. However, I had to turn off the voices because they kept breaking up and it was distracting from the game. The 2 puzzles that were in this part were easy and the hint button actually works if you can't figure what you need to do next.
I recommend this game!

I found it slow going from scene to scene. Loading the different scene's took forever. The help button wasn't worth using as it didn't tell you what you needed to know except that there wasn't anything to do there. Wish the map worked where you could jump from your current location to the one you wanted versus going through areas you didn't need.
The scenes were clear and colorful. Liked the story line just wish it was a longer game. To short!!
I recommend this game!

This is a fun TM game. It has a relaxed and Timed mode. I prefer the relaxed. Also, you buy things to make improvements which is something I like doing instead of just running around and clearing rocks, cutting wood etc. Graphics are good, not a lot of talking and moves right along.
I recommend this game!

Can't understand why most everyone is complaining. Yes, it doesn't have voice over but I get tired of those and usually shut it off. I didn't find the scenes dark and being my age that can be a problem. Also, the HO's weren't hard to find the items. I sometimes use my magnifying glass and did not have to on this one. The complainers are just spoiled because it doesn't have all the fancy things in it.
I recommend this game!

Didn't even finish the trial and had to buy it. I'm so glad this has a relaxed mode as being of the senior gender the hands don't move very quickly. Kudo's to Playrix.
