How This Dreadful Game Ever Got 5 Stars Is Beyond Me

My high hopes for this game were dashed immediately upon opening this game. The graphics were horrible. They were the kind you see in kiddie cartoons. Monotone music & no written or oral verbiage made it difficult to get into to the story. The story line was touted to have such a profound message. The only message I received was...HUH!!!! Needless to say the scope & lack of playability was beyond me & I quickly threw in the towel.
I don't recommend this game.
Find collectible cards and customize your own deck.

I love solitaire games but this one is just a rehashed higher/lower game. No real story line except decorating a grave yard.
Usual rewards & things to buy for decorations.
Just wasn't much fun to play as it reminded me of so many other solitaire game. Thought it was kind of boring & there were no real challenges.
Graphic colors are hideous & the drawings are cartoonish.
Try before you buy & see if you like it.
Can't see any reason to recommend this game.

Couldn't find a way out of the first HOS. Pop up said to zoom in with wheel of mouse. I don't have a separate mouse as it is built in my computer. Try as I may I just could not figure out this HOS. Game is frustrating NOT fun or adventurous.
I don't recommend this game.
Can you keep the past from destroying the present?

Dreadful mediocre, amateurish graphics with the same old murky blue background.
This is suppose to be a PC so why is there a timer? It seems you must solve all of the HOS to find a secret room BUT the 15 min timer is counting down through all of the HOS. When you do find the secret room if you are not able to finish it before time runs out you are kicked back to the beginning. What??
At that point I called it quits to this just plain dreadful, nonsensical game. Delete button here I come.
I don't recommend this game.
Bring your sweetheart along in this lovely Solitaire adventure!

This is a rehashed game with mahjong thrown in. The graphics are lovely but that's about the only positive about this game. If you haven't played the castle version of this game you will enjoy this game but if you have you'll probably want to pass on this version.
I only recommend this game to those who have not played the castle version.

Another dreadful rehashed dusty, dreary, abandoned, haunted hotel storyline. It's tedious/boring with a silly screen named Patrick that finds glowing orbs. The graphics are just plain icky with way too much dust, dirt & cobwebs for this clean freak to handle.
HOGS/puzzles are messy & run of the mill. Mouth movements are wonky. I just couldn't find anything good about this game. There are no redeeming qualities to be found.
Unfortunately, these are the only kind of games I've been seeing lately. I haven't found a decent game to buy in quite a long time.
These games obviously are liked by a lot more people than me. So I'll keep playing my card/board games until a something new/original, without ghosts, goblins, spirits other worldly creatures etc., pops up for me to buy.
I don't recommend this game.

Another rehashed, dreadful, overused story line. Way too much fire/flames in all of the scenes.
Characters are wooden, poorly drawn with wonky mouth movements. Colorization is dark, monotone & hard to distinguish characters/scenes. Just plain dreary.
HOS require you to find multiples of an item such as animals or glass shards. Puzzles are run of the mill & some are easy enough for a 4 yr old too solve. Something I just didn't expect or want.
The games, lately, seem redundant & thrown together without much thought. Originality is definitely missing.
I don't recommend this game.
Can you recover your memories and save a missing girl in time?

Another rehashed story line. Someone has gone missing & you get to track her down & as usual a monster rears its ugly head. B O R I N G.
Graphics are amateurish, with murky, muddy, BLUE colorization. Nothing new or original.
HOS are interactive & pleasant enough. Mini Puzzles are dreadful. It's just a lot of sliding things here & there.
Characters are their old stiff & wooden selves with terrible mouth movement.
Love ELF. He just retrieves things for you & is not otherwise intrusive. But that top hatted, pipe smoking hint frog is just plain creepy.
A very basic game & I would only recommend it to beginners & those who do not mind being bored out of their minds.
I don't recommend this game.
This may be the Amazing Garibaldi Brothers’ final performance!

Finally a game that doesn't seem like a rehash. Also, love the fact that there were no ghosts, witches, evil spirits, dead relatives that wont stay dead, runes etc.
The graphics were finally colorful & no excess blue in sight.
Game didn't seem tedious or boring too me & I didn't find the characters too be that chatty. The objectives were clear & the rabbit in each scene wasn't that difficult too find.
HOGS were nice & somewhat interactive. Some mini games were OK & others were cumbersome & made no sense. {I find this with many of the puzzles.}
I felt the game moved at a good pace & the back & forth wasn't as bothersome as it could be.
All in all, a very nice game too play.
I recommend this game!
Experience a new and exciting solitaire adventure with magician Knoxford in the land of elves!

Game makes absolutely no sense. Pop ups & bouncing arrows galore. Difficulty moving around game play/scene & getting on to next scene. The scenes were too busy & nonsensical to make this an enjoyable game.
Graphics are beginner grade & not very pleasing. I found the game so frustrating & annoying that I couldn't get past the first card game. Thank heaven for the delete button.
I don't recommend this game.
