I purchase and play the newest edition of Christmas Wonderland every year at Christmastime. It has become a tradition. I love the storylines, the low-stress environment, and the beautiful graphics. Hopefully this game will continue to be published every year for a long time to come.
I recommend this game!

I can't express enough how wonderful I think this series is. I frequently search for additions to this series (I wish I would get emails when a new one is released--BFG: you should perhaps look into this functionality). I love returning to the park and finding objects and listening to the music. The scenes are beautiful, the characters familiar, the music is relaxing, and there are no stressful aspects to the search, just a straightforward and positive experience (the photos, trash, and species extra searches are a solid additional stress-free challenge). I am not saying I do not like to be tested sometimes, but this HOG series is perfect for times when I just want to decompress. I hope BFG and the studio continue to create this world and new adventures (and crossovers! hopefully with Cruise Director, which I also love, maybe Christmas Vacation!) far into the future. I am grateful for this game.
I recommend this game!

These match games are not only beautiful and multi-leveled, but they are downright addictive. I continually search for new ones, and Palais Imperial came at a perfect time! New lockdowns and blah holidays coming up. The game boards are all beautiful, the game pieces are different depending on the "story", and the castles and landscapes you build are sumptuous. There is so much variety in strategies, that you can play and re-play entire boards and not have the same play twice. The bonus games are also beautiful and yield fabulous results! So, thank you for another clever, beautifully designed and entertaining Jewel Match, and please keep them coming!!

I love the Suricate Jewel Match games. I never cared for match 3, but these games have hooked me. I like the way the Suricate designers continue to come up with scenes and themes that are both beautiful and inventive. The "Jewels" in this game are beautiful nature items; the music is relaxing and pleasant, and it is just enough to be challenging but not frustrating. I love the map design, the jewel-collecting levels, the puzzle levels, and the little snail and turtle roadblocks. There are always new ways to discover to work around the challenges in each level. I hope Suricate continues to invent these beautiful match-3 games. I see that they've come out with a new Twilight! Keep going, guys, and I'll keep dropping a dime on you.
I recommend this game!

I wish I could find more games like this one in which the theme is positive, and the game is just challenging enough to not be taxing. I have all of the Big City Adventure games, and loved them for these reasons. The longer "story" format is wonderful and engaging. I am enjoying this game immensely. The map and walkthrough are a great help to avoid frustration. The postcards give interesting information, as well, so I feel like I am in fact traveling in these places.
I hope Jolly Bear games continues to develop these types of games, both the Classic with new destinations, and the Story format. I'd love to see a "Tokyo Story"! Judging from the other comments on this board, it looks like there is definitely a market for this type of game. I also hope that these comments are forwarded to the game developers!!
I recommend this game!

A UFO is rumored to have landed in the small town of Tundel and the mayor is trying to conceal it. Run your own journalistic investigation and learn the truth behind the event!

I absolutely loved City of Fools! Wandering around the city, knocking on doors, and meeting all kinds of crazy characters was an amazingly entertaining experience. The game itself requires some thought, but not too much. There are plenty of surprises and mild challenges at every turn. It's just pure fun, and the sense of humor is great! Potty humor, yes, but not offensive at all. I am nearly finished with the game and will be sad to see it end. Spending an hour or so a day with these characters and fulfilling all of their crazy needs has been entirely a pleasure. I hope that the creators of this game make another one someday. Kudos to them! City of Fools obviously required a lot of thought and planning, and it comes off swimmingly. I am amazed.
If you're thinking of purchasing this game: when you begin playing, it is advisable to make a list of locations visited and who lives there so that you don't forget. Also, learn how to plant the flag on the map to make getting around easier.
I recommend this game!
