IMO the developers were not up to par. Usually love their games. This could have been soooo much better. I enjoyed the graphics of course, but on the most difficult mode, it was less than casual mode on lots of games. May use coupon on SE game, not sure yet. Feel it's better suited for beginners.
Except for nice graphics, I have absolutely nothing positive to say about this game! I don't know what I saw in the demo that prompted me to buy it. Haven't finished and won't, it's that bad!
Best in the series, IMO. Almost bought without trying, but thought I should check it out first because some devs. have dropped the ball lately with their series games. But not this one, nothing negative to say, they just keep getting better! Just purchased and can't wait to play it. Hope everyone enjoys the game, I will! Thanks BFG and devs. for a great SE.
Overall I really like this game. I played 6 hrs. according to play clock. IMO, there really wasn't a storyline...sister gets kidnapped by some thing, you have to save her...pretty basic, but there was so much to do, I didn't really care. Graphics, while grainy in some scenes, were nicely done. IHOG/HOG were not junk piles, mini-games fairly simple, but enjoyable.The game started slow, but got better. Cut scenes are cartoonish, but you can skip. There's no map, but there aren't many places to go. You will need your sneakers cause there is some back tracking. Hint system is helpful and refills quickly.
Graphics were great. Music was nice. 2 levels of play, I played expert, but didn't find it difficult 46 Morphing objects to find Interactive map and HO
Most people will love this, it's a great game, a definite buy...but I will wait for SE.
IMO, based on the demo, it's not as good as 1000 Doors: Family Secrets CE, which I purchased after just a few minutes of demo and I was not disappointed.
Had so much fun! There's are tons of things to do. This is the only Series that I buy the CE without playing the demo, because it is ALWAYS worth it!
Graphics are breautiful. Soundtrack is nice. Mini Games are unique, fun, and challenging. Storyline is interesting, with hours of game play. There's a map, which lets you travel to another area, so you don't need your sneakers! :) it also shows where there's things to do!
Thanks for another excellent game!
I recommend this game!

I'm having a LOT of fun with this game. At first I wasn't sure I'd like it, but the more I play, the more I get drawn in. Although I don't time game play, I think it's a fairly long game. I am about half way through, but wanted to get this review in before the sale goes off.
Very original, so far I've seen nothing to compare it to.There is a lot of stuff to do, but it can be confusing. It took a little time to get used to the map. Most mini games were on the easy side, some without instructions, but I thought they were obvious. Graphics are old school but they seem to fit with storyline. Only one game level. Sorry, I can't speak to voice overs or music as I keep mine muted. If you want something different, then you have to try this game. It's definitely worth the price!
I'm surprised that I feel so different than other reviewers.
I wanted to like this game. Graphics were nice, some voice overs, music appropriate but repetitive, story line is not original, just another town and another missing bride/groom. I played demo on expert for 40 mins. Very easy HOS and mini games. I had to stop, some parts bordered (crossed?) on ridiculous. It's not a game I will purchase.
I thoroughly enjoyed this game. I played the demo and had to have more. I don't usually purchase CE's, but I bought this one during the 'CE Specials' and I am so happy that I did. The graphics were great, I thought the storyline had a unique twist. It wasn't predictable, at least not to me. I had a lot of fun playing. I didn't want it to end, hope there will be a sequel and that it won't be long coming!
IMO this is a great game. I was hooked by the demo. Interesting storyline, lots of challenging puzzles, which I love. Nice graffics and music. Would like to see more games like this one.
