I enjoyed this because of the definitions of what one is to find. That is an added bonus- lol. Try the demo with an open mind - I bought it...but then, I worked for Immigration.

For those who like to relax with a simple but artistically rendered beautiful game. I love it - bought it - and went searching for more! Big Fish has them so I bought all of them too. Since I have all that I was able to find, I keep playing them over and over and my RA doesn't hurt a bit :) Children will enjoy these games too.
I recommend this game!

Loved the graphics - crisp, light and colorful. The plot line was intriguing and welcome. Playing it somehow lessened the pain I was feeling - I got so involved in it.

Best HOS I have seen in a long time - some were very difficult. The puzzles were sometimes too hard for me. The story line was solid and the scenes crisp and clear. This is a winner.

This game is so faithful to the TV show that I felt part of it. I finished the demo and immediately bought it so I could keep playing and hours later finished it and this morning am ready to do it again. It may be easy for experts to do, but it was hard enough for me. The characters were realistic and believable, The plot was interesting and reminded me of an actual case I once read about.
I recommend this game!

I do not recommend this game, Objects in the HOs are misnamed and difficult to find. The story line, if there is one, does not appear in the first hour. Yes, the screenwriter is there trying to get inspiration...so? It runs slow and awkwardly. I solved a puzzle correctly and the screen didn't change or acknowledge the win. This should never have been selected by BF. Doesn't BF have a QA division? I wouldn't buy it even if it was a DD.
I don't recommend this game.
