A nice game this one, not great but certainly enjoyable. Colors are lots of blue, but it was sharp and clear. I liked the HOS, they have lots of variety in it. The mini games were alright, not particularly challenging but fun. Nice feature to let you know if you found the collectibles and morphing objects. But I am not sure if I need these collectables. Strategy guide not a necessary so I might wait for the standard edition or wait for a good sale. It's a decent game, better than some that we have had lately. Enjoy!
What a bit of fresh air this game is, I didn't like the last two in this series, so didn't expect to like this one. But within 10 minutes of play I knew I had to have this game. Absolutely adore it. Graphics are topnotch!! HOS well done with some new twists, minigames not too difficult but very enjoyable. It's been a while since I was so thrilled about a game!! I recommend you try it yourself
Just replayed this one, and still loving it just as much, I have played hundreds of games during the past years.. but this one is by far the best! It has everything I love in a game and more!!
I beta tested this one a while ago and had doubts, but I am a big fan of ERS so I bought it with a nice sale and glad I did! A lot of games deteriorate after the demo-time, not this one. It was pure joy and the bonuschapter was exceptional long and well crafted! I immensely enjoyed this one, which I didn't expect after the beta. Enjoy!!
I played the demo of the CE and the SE and was not very impressed, but I have the others in the series, and hate to miss one, I took this one with a free coupon. And am I glad I did!! It's was a very pleasant game, I really enjoyed it!! So happy I did take it. So, not always trust the demo, lesson for myself! ;)
I bought this one because I have all the others, was not to thrilled about the play in the demo, I must have had a bad day, because am I glad I bought it, I am simply loving every minute of it. It is bright, colourful, the gameplay is great, lots of little humorous things. And above all this, it is a very long game. I love everything about this one and highly recommend it
I played the demo of the CE and hated it, I didn't like the killings and was put off by it. But after reading the reviews here and I always loved the games from ERS I decided to use a soon to expire coupon on it, and I am glad that I have. After the first killings the game really lifts up, I am enjoying it very much. Glad to have read the reviews, otherwise I would have missed it ;) It's an easy game but I like that now and then!
It's been a while since I was so drawn into a game, not even in Maze, which was also topnotch. I don't know if it's the graphics, the gameplay or the story. Maybe it's the whole thing.. I love every minute, and there are a lot of them because it's a long game!! Thanks eipix for restoring my faith, after recent releases I started to doubt your greatness but with this one all doubts are going into the swamp!!
I don't like creepy games, I liked ravenhearst but escape from ravenhearst was in my opinion disgusting.. The graphics of Maze are awful at the beginning, they improve later on, or I was getting used to it. Because after the demo I wasn't sure.. Was it another escape to ravenhearst kinda game..?? But the craziest thing was, and this hardly happens to me, after playing I could not get the story out of my mind and found myself wanting to find out how it all ends.. I remember playing under water, and actually played quick to get out of the water, while sitting in a chair!! That's involvement!! So I bought and can't wait to finish it!!
I have been a big fan of ERS games since I started playing these games. I own every single Hidden Object game they have ever produced.
So I played the survey of this game two days ago, Excited because I love these series. But boy, what a disappointment!!!
It is Grim !!! Way too grim for my liking. I Always admire ERS for the beautiful graphics.. these are dark...very dark. But that was not what bothered me the most . The story did. They hang people, you actually open a door at one time and find a dead man hanging. This happens quite early in the game, so it's not a spoiler I think.
In these times that we live in, with all the terrible things in the world going on, I just want to play a game for relaxing, not to be horrified!!
Another killing while at it, and that was it for me, I quited..., this will be the first time I am ever going to pass on an ERS game...
