I am absolutely loving this game. It is very challenging. It takes a while to get the drift of what it all means and that makes it so interesting. It's not just picking supplies and building things. You have to find stuff and complete tasks that have multiple facets to them. It reminds me a lot of Adelantado Trilogy in the way it works.
I recommend this to anyone who likes to have to think
I recommend this game!

I was not sure what to expect from this game but it is really not challenging at all. Definitely a game for the Beginner.
Repetitive and you can't adjust the music volume. Either blaring or off, same with sound. Not impressed at all
I don't recommend this game.

This is just another gather resources etc. Nothing new. If you have never played this type of game you may like it but for seasoned Time Management gamers this is no real challenge. Very disappointing
I don't recommend this game.

I have to agree with Joybelle_2. This is just not an ordinary Match 3. You have to think about it and I like that. The extra puzzles are good too. Did not get bored.
Have to decide where you have to go and what you need to get out of the way to kill the Spooks
I recommend this game!

I agree with pennmom36
This is a cookie cutter version of the I love dogs etc series. Nothing new here at all
If you have not played that series then you may enjoy this but I won't be buying it
I don't recommend this game.

We are not into Halloween in Oz but I thought I would try this game. Nothing new here at all. Same old puzzles and HOS. Didn't like the theme either
I don't recommend this game.

I do not normally like games from MAGNUSSOFT but this one was quite challenging. I tried it on the strength of a review from Joybelle. It is not just plain old Solitaire the rules are different and you need to read them before you start or you would have no idea what was going on.
It made me think, always a good sign for this type of game. I bought it before the free trial was up. Give it a go
I recommend this game!

I hated it from the moment I opened it up. The music again is just awful and the tasks have not changed from the last one. It is just boring really
I don't recommend this game.

One thing I really thought was bad was the definition of the pictures and items. They seemed blurred and hard to make out. This harks back to much older games and looks like it was developed years ago. I did buy it because I like these types of HO games but I found it very hard to look at. Not sure if I should have bought it
I don't recommend this game.

I really love this game. There is the Match 3 element but so much more. You have puzzles and quests to complete and challenge you. The characters are interesting and I found it all quite compelling. Did not get sick of it even level after level. I think if you like Match 3 with a bit more try this one
I recommend this game!
