I played about half of the 60 minutes of the CE....It wasn't much fun.... Don't think I will be buying either the CE or (when the SEcomes out that one either)....Just didn't do anything FUN for me at all!!!
But try it yourself to make your decision....everyone likes different things....
I don't recommend this game.

Not Impressed, Maybe buy when SE -- just maybe....not sure
Pretty boring, more of the same old same old puzzles, nothing impresseive that made it worth CE price, maybe not even worth SE price....They have you running in circles right away (probably to use up your 60 minute trial -- I didn't even do 60 min.-- I could see it wasn't worth CE for me pretty quick....

Surface: The Pantheon Collector's Edition
It should have been a tremendous achievement, but the tunnel through the Ridge of Leviathan became the site of a great disaster. What really happened that day?
I read other reviews that commended the game and bought it....boy was I mistaken...This game was one big un-fun running in circles to get items and solve things---too MUCH....AND if you like the characters talking ALL the time, this is a good one for you (although they talk about nothing of significance in my opionion).....Personally I felt the game was geared toward the Grade school level.....Also, not enough Hidden Object games to my liking...But, whatever floats your boat.
I don't recommend this game.

I gave the game 5 stars because I do like Mystery Trackers games, the graphics are pretty good, the story was original....and I waited for the SE, and then used the Walkthrough online....Even with the walkthrough, the game took me a loooong time, which is good because I enjoyed the story and mini-games, etc. etc...It was bad because I didn't take a break except between two days, and I was really tired by the time I got to the end.....I would highly recommend this game, just be prepared to take some breaks because it is long, which is Great !!!!
I recommend this game!

There was too much running around in circles, and too much talking about what was going on....I would have rather had more new game play.....i.e. variety of mini-games....I don't know this game just didn't thrill me....

Fierce Tales: Marcus' Memory Collector's Edition
Solve the mystery of a seaside town as you uncover your lost memories.
I played the CE 1 hour sample....The Graphics were extrememly poor.....bad resolution and Re-Hashed graphics I have seen tons of times in other games....I thought the story was pretty stupid also... I guess some of it depends on what you like....This might have been okay for younger audience (kids), but I found it BORING !!!!! Definitely would not recommend the cost of a CE version.....
I don't recommend this game.

Barn Yarn
Help Joe and Tom repair an old barn and prepare for the harsh winter in Barn Yarn, a unique mix of Hidden Object and simulation!
I have been extremely happy with both the "scape" games in this series.....They are fun while finding the items, and I love the running dialog of the characters and the dog....I went to Playtrix site to see if there are any more like this, but I have played both games they put out, Gardenscape and Barn Yarn.. I am almost 60, and I find these enjoyable, and the characters humorous (lovable)....PLEASE Get the Developer to develop some more with Joe & Tom......Makes my day happier to play these....
I recommend this game!

Too juvenile for me, and the controls didn't work well for touching things....The graphics were pretty simplistic and pretty poor.... Not worth even SE for me....I am an adult.
I don't recommend this game.

I bought this on Discount weekend....I though the game would be okay...but I wasn't impressed with the graphics, too many HO that don't even look like the item, and too much hiding them in odd ways....the HOs like the "rings' were so camafloged that you would never find them probably without a guide.....I hate that tactic...they are forcing you to either get CE or wait for SE and hints in Forums..... NO, not impressed at all !!!!
