This game is just beautiful to look at plus its original. A bit different although not an entirely new concept but I have to say I loved it. Flying on a dragonfly was very unexpected! It's a definite buy for me.
I recommend this game!

The graphics on this game are absolutely amazing. I was actually surprised by how gorgeous it is but beyond that it has a great storyline and even the voice acting is very well done. A lot of times it can be pretty corny. The chest that you put the coins into giving you so much of the back story was surprisingly cool, Its always nice to see good cut scenes that add so much depth to the storyline. It doesn't seem too hard and I would love a bit more of a challenge but it's fun nonetheless so it will be a definite buy for me!

I knew within the first ten minutes of the demo that I would definitely be buying this game and just a heads up I'm writing this after finishing the game and the bonus chapter.
The voice overs are actually pretty good for a game but the story is great. It pretty much plays out like a good thriller, sort of a sixth sense type with a crazy twist... Don't worry, I wont spoil it! The graphics are amazing and the music definitely fits the overall atmosphere, at one point there is even a creepy rendition of ring around the rosie. The puzzles are fun and the hidden object scenes are better than a lot of other games although I was a bit disappointed they didnt add any objects that take extra steps to find.
My only real complaint is that it didn't last long enough... I would say game play is about average maybe 4 or 5 hours plus the bonus chapter but I was so into the game I wanted it to go on longer! This game is definitely worth buying.

I bought this game immediately because I loved the graphics and the fact that it had such a mix of puzzles but it didn't take long until I got frustrated. The story is seriously lacking and there are so many holes that it makes the game a bit confusing as far as figuring out what to do next, particularly towards the end of a chapter or starting of a new one. The wooden door pieces you find after you complete a chapter are in the dumbest places and the last puzzle you do before you move on in each chapter literally makes no sense whatsoever. The one to get the rose towards the end was just plain ridiculous as was the one with the harp and moon. This was the first CE I've been really disappointed in... but thats just my opinion. If more time would have been spent putting a little effort into making the game a bit more logical it would have been so much better.
I don't recommend this game.

It's a little different than usual and I think thats what I love about it. I like that it gives you plenty of room to figure things out and the graphics are pretty amazing. Story seems to be pretty original with the whole mafia twist added in with time traveling.
After playing the Demo it's a definite buy for me.
