I was so happy to see that one of my favorite series, Fantasy Mosaics, came out with a spooky theme just in time for Halloween. It is full of rich, beautiful colors, a cute story line, and eerie music.
In fact, I was so pleased, that I renewed my membership in order to buy it!
Thanks, creators of Fantasy Mosaics. The only reason why I rated it only 4 out of 5 for visual/sound quality, is because of the endless loops that I think every customer is sick of by now. Please, please come up with either more than one song while playing the game, or else a MUCH longer endless loop. I usually end up turning the music off because it becomes so monotonous.
The Kingdoms of Lanceya and Winterhelm are in peril!

I don’t often write reviews, but when I play a game that is really well done, I like to give credit to the company that publishes it, the creative writers, and amazing graphic designers.
My husband and I are elderly and love hidden object games, but often times, the mini-puzzles are too difficult. That is why we loved being able to choose between an “easy” and a “hard” level on the mini-puzzles. For us, the easy level was fun instead of frustrating.
I give major kudos for the bright colors used throughout this game. And also switching back and forth between two characters was a welcome change that is rarely done. We don’t usually like the plot lines, but this one was simple, enjoyable, and easy to follow.
We were also very happy to see that the words stay up long enough to read them aloud. With most games, they disappear before you can get to the end of the sentence.
I highly recommend this game for families, for all of the reasons listed above.
I look forward to trying some of the other games published by this company. I had no idea there were so many.
I recommend this game!

I love games, especially the ones that challenge me. But, sometimes I just need to relax and this game is perfect for that! The soundtracks on all four of the Match 2 Card games are excellent, especially this one and the Halloween one. The game itself is fairly easy with a fair amount of strategy, but relaxing at the same time. I hope this company continues to write and produce these games, because they are my favorite solitaire games of all times.
I recommend this game!

I'm a huge fan of the Fantasy Mosaics and have played everyone of them, but I believe this is the best one yet. I would not recommend it for beginners, since it sometimes uses 6 color palettes and could be confusing, but it is perfect for old-timers like me. I love the new color palette they used!

I'm not a heavy storyline gamer, but this story had a twist to it - especially the interactive ending. Some scenes even had a sense of humor.
This game had everything I love - a map that allowed quick scene transfers, great graphics, good hints, and especially the challenging, one-of-a-kind unique games.
I recommend this game!

If you really like a heavy storyline, this is the game for you.
I really liked this game at first, but it got to the point where I had to use the hint constantly just to find where to go next. Lots of to and fro.
I recommend this game!

This was one game that I was actually glad when it ended! It would have been GREAT, except for the continuous "to and fro", without any direction from the hint button.
Great storyline, graphics, sounds, music, etc. So sad it was such a disappointment. I had high hopes for this one.
I don't recommend this game.

This game is challenging, but worth the extra time spent. The variety of colorful scenes and even the sounds are enjoyable. There are cleverly hidden animals and items, plus your choice of 4 different mini-games to earn extra hints.
But, the best part is it is EDUCATIONAL, which is really unusual for a hidden-object game. This is the perfect family game!
Playing it was delightful. It was like spending a day at the zoo with the animals everyone enjoys the most.
I recommend this game!

Loved this game. It was relaxing enough for me to go through 2 times. Simple storyline. I really liked that the game didn't start out with the usual car crash/coma or letter from a relative. Well worth the money.
I recommend this game!
