This could have been a great game, but was lacking in so many ways.
The beginning was so cool and promising, but as you are escaping the box you are left wanting to see what it was that you had been trapped in. The game needed some filler ins. Was he in the back of a moving wagon? Was he trapped in a coffin in the ground?
Next thing I found disconnecting is the distance look of a scene to a close up. I could see in the distance one type of terrain with no hint of a building or water and click for that direction and would be a close up of a shed and bride. Like what???
The game had good ideas but just not played out enough so I do not like this game.
I don't recommend this game.

This game was so fun the time flew by fast and I was stuck on a puzzle, but having fun. Can hardly wait to own this game.
The story was great, Graphics so cool. Characters were super with critters and movement of wildlife here and there. Does not to appear to be HO's though. Great adventure game. Love love the Gremlins.

I liked the story line and the characters. The critters here and there. The music was good. The graphics great, but way to dark for these old eyes. I might get this as a freebie, but yet I do not like the struggle to find things in such a dark HO.
I recommend this game!

Love the little bits of inventiveness here and there in the game. the warping items to be found were nice. Like the big dipper. That was cool. The graphics for the bull made me feel like I was being chased out. So cool.
Graphics were great as well as the characters. The Ho's were good. A pretty easy game. I would buy it.
The negatives would be the map did not show locations to work on, but I think it takes you to the spot you click on.
I recommend this game!

Have a pet. Collect characters you meet in the game. Magic and creatures. At first I did not think I would like it. I really like the way the first game functions better. This game is great unto itself. It lacks for nothing. Must have list for sure. Beautiful graphics and good music. Nice interaction with characters.
I recommend this game!

Enjoyed this one very much. Beautiful scenes. Good plot, good music. Liked the interaction. Match HOs were fun too.
This Grim was a whole lot better then the first one.

Not my favorite, but for a easy breezy time this hits the spot. Some kids might even enjoy it. The child crying for her dog and the dog help make the atmosphere and helped to keep me interested. The interactive map was of great help. The HO's were good and the music too.
I would buy this game on a rainy day.

This game was so fun and would buy it in a heart beat. Interaction with the raven was fun. The skeletons were a bit comical as not to scare me too much. The acting and movie cuts with music play was top of the line. I liked it. Beautiful scenes. Lots to do.
Problems I ran into. The map on bottom right shows what symbol to look for to be able to know what location activity is to be done. The map never showed me any icons showing where to go for activity. The hint button was more help. But when I received the magic book I could not use it. Also without explanation the sign in the city square gave me Ghostly faces as if not allowed access. I am guessing I was suppose to use the book there, but did not allow me too and then time ran out. So I am not sure if I had reached the limit of my free play before time was up and was stuck messing around until the time actually ran out or if there is a problem.
In spite of two problems I think the game was very excellent and will buy it. Time went by fast and I had a whole lot of fun. Gotta save my pilot.
I recommend this game!

This is a must buy as I see for a few others. Great entertainment. Good interaction. Beautiful mystical scenes. Music and cut scenes were wonderful. Interaction with wild life was nice.
Time went by fast and the game was not extremely hard for a intermediate player like me. Can not think of one thing wrong with this game.
I recommend this game!

I was bored at first but it got better as it went along. Regular Hoes and nicely done but nothing too fancy. No morphing images, no interactions with surrounding life, bugs, animals. Leaned toward the element of surprise which perked my interest a little. Music was pretty good. Graphics were good and voice over fairly good. The game has potential but needs to be vamped up. I would get this as a freebee only so I am not sure if recommending it is the right thing.
I recommend this game!
