So many HO games have dreary storylines. This one has a storyline, yes, but it doesn't run along with the game. You get story at the start and the end - for the majority of the game, you get to find hidden objects! :-)
Okay, so to more experienced players it'll probably appear a bit simplistic - dull even - but to those of us who want to test our observational skills and look for objects (and some are REALLY hard to find!) I reckon this is a game to look at.
I was determined to complete it without using any hints - and did. That said, the game ISN'T too easy and is a nice change from the current scene-overloaded games available.
All in all, if you're looking for a bit of light relief, I'd recommend a look at this one. After all, with the free trial, you have nothing to lose!
Oh yes, finally, the background music is nice too!
Go on, try it - its fun! :-)
I recommend this game!

I have to say, I thoroughly enjoyed playing this game. For me it had just the right balance of mini-puzzles, hidden object scenes and story to make it both fun and challenging to play. Okay, so I played it in the simplest mode, but I did that mainly because I wanted to complete it in order to be able to write this review.
All in all, I reckon its a good game. I had a few slight issues with the video, but I think that's down to the age of my PC and its graphics hardware!
Still unsure? Well why not do what I did and play the trial version. But be warned, if you do, I reckon you'll be chomping at the bit to own the game before you get to the end of your trial!
I recommend this game!

I have to say, I'm something of a fan of HO's and in the main, this one didn't dissappoint me. On the whole, the game played well (I had a couple of glitches where I had to restart the game, but that's probably down to a rather old PC!). There are plenty of hidden objects to find and this, along with the other, action aspects of the game, kept my interest going right up until the end. The end. Well, the end could have been a lot better in my opinion and if anything lets the game down, then I'd have to say its the ending. Still, all in all, a fun game to play and a game I'd recommend.
