The screens are clear and crisp but seem to be reminiscent of mid 90's graphics. Music is lovely but I found the game to be very easy, no challenge. Played whole game in 4 hours on hard mode.

Very easy to play, no challenge.The graphics are good and clear and the music is decent...but the derogatory way the designers portray people who work on farms was too much for me. I was taken back a bit.
I don't recommend this game.

The game has lovely music, wonderful graphics and an interesting storyline for younger players. I did feel the puzzles are better suited for the 12 to 15 year old group as they were very easy...but a good game for new players or a younger individual.

Not up to MCF standards. Lea Thompson seems angry/annoyed that she is in the game. Sorry to say, pass. It fails on many levels.
I don't recommend this game.

Review of full collection edition played in hardcore mode.The start of this game is just lovely, festive, magical and fun. The HO scene's are interactive and clear. The puzzles and tasks are very easy but I didn't mind as the graphics are wonderful and enchanting. Music is an asset to the scenes. The length of the game is OK, felt it could have been longer for a CE. You will also need to collect 25 dolls. The story is a different take on the Nutcracker and his fight with the Rat King, and that was fine with me... but the game strays to egyption cats and mayan calendars that just put a damper on the Christmas feeling of the game.The bonus content really takes a leap when magical warrior cats fighting ice wolves pop up. Give the demo a go, but remember it is a bit on the short side, easy puzzles and the story wanders a bit.
I recommend this game!

I only played the demo and I don't know where to begin...it's just not up to par on any level with the other MCF games. Madam Fate, Ravenhearst, 13 Skulls etc, have set the bar for great games and this is lacking on so many levels. Lea Thompson almost seems angry/irritated that she is in the game...and I like her as an actress so I was excited to try the demo. I would pass on this one....so sorry to say that about a MCF game.
I don't recommend this game.

This is better than most of the games I have been playing lately. A different kind of storyline, graphics are great, good length, voice overs are professional, HOS are plentiful, music enjoyable and a good map so you don't have to hoof it around. My only problem was that some of the puzzles were very easy, like for a 10 year old easy. That's why I did not give it 5 stars, but don't let this turn you off to the game. Give the demo a try.
I recommend this game!

I really liked this game! Some graphics are lower resoltuion but it didn't matter to me it was the game play I enjoyed!. This game is just Hidden Objects but some levels were very difficult and you had to play against the clock. The game is very straight forward and does not really have a storyline. If you are up for a challenge and want to test your memory under pressure, give the game a try.
Embark on a thrilling rescue mission in the Town of the Cyclops!

I really enjoyed playing this game. The puzzles are not super hard, a few were very easy. A couple of times the game surprised me with a - think out of the box moment- but once I understood what they wanted some puzzles were simple.
The graphics are lovely and clear,the use of the tools and items were a bit whimsical. The overall feeling is very relaxed. Someone commented on the female voice over as problematic, but I did not have any issues with it. I rather liked it. This may not be a game for an advanced player looking for some tough puzzles, but give the demo a try you might like it for some relaxed fun.

I bought this game based on all the rave reviews. The puzzles are simple and there is alot of going back and forth and back and forth. You need a key, here is a key, you need a code, here is the code. Very elementary.The grapics are good and the live actors are a plus but, I did not find it a challenge at all and I played in detective mode.I was disappointed and am begining to think people are tossing around stars too easily. Maybe Ok for a beginner.
I recommend this game!
