I loved this HOG for the story line and production values. I actually loved the singing. It was professional and the voice acting throughout was superb.
As a CE I was expecting extra game play but realized to follow the actual story the game had to end when it did. I hope to see more Penny Dreadfulls.
I recommend this game!

Eternal Journey: New Atlantis Collector's Edition
Travel from the deepest trenches of the Atlantic Ocean to the awe-inspiring wonders of Mars as you solve the greatest archeological puzzle known to man: the origin of Atlantis.
I loved this game. The production value was much higher then normally seen in casual games. The HOSs were clear and I liked that the list filled up after an object was found. The map allowed one to warp directly to a location and also gave hints when tasks were required.
I even felt the CE extra chapter was well done and not just a throw away.
Also I'm a Martian fan so what can I say.
I recommend this game!

Awakening: Moonfell Wood
After awaking from a century long slumber, Princess Sophia finds a world that is devoid of people! Help her find her friends!
The storyline is excellent with beautiful graphics. I'm so glad the fairy didn't speak. They're always given such annoying voices! The SE version is long and challenging. Objects were fairly clear in the HOGs. I am playing the next instalment right away!
I recommend this game!

Hidden Mysteries: The Forbidden City
Uncover the Hidden Mysteries in the Forbidden City!
I like the idea of finding pieces of objects to form items to be used in other scenes. However, the game is way too short and the music a little annoying.
I don't recommend this game.

Hidden Mysteries: Royal Family Secrets
After discovering that the queen has been having a secret relationship you are sent away to Roanoke Island!
The graphics were great and the HOS clear enough to find items. The puzzles were challenging for my level so they were possible to solve without skipping (mostly). The story line was good and followed history to a certain extent. Even though it's a SE I felt the story was finished at the end; not like some SE where you need to play the CE to have the feeling that the story is finished.
Can you uncover the truth before you become the next page in the killer’s diary?

This game is beautifully draw and executed. This is one where the bonus chapter of the collectors edition is worth it for the storyline and game play.
There are even areas to touch that aren't party to advancing the game but are enjoyable and often humorous.
I recommend this game!

I'm a HOS fanatic and I really loved this game. The graphics and cut scenes are very well executed. The HOS scenes were not frustrating nor were the mini-games which were challenging but fun. I really like this series because each door brings a totally different setting. More please.
I recommend this game!

I bought the SE version. I found the storyline interesting and enjoyed looking for the hidden cats. I found the puzzles challenging enough not to be frustrating.
I recommend this game especially if you are a cat lover.
