But a Genie can. Fairly good game. Not my favorite. I had to use the hint button a lot. The HO's were a little dark so not as easy on the eyes. I collected Jeweled emblems but not sure if there was anything else. Some of the Puzzles were interesting. Art work and Characters were great. Nice game flow. Not sue why but I got a little bored.
I recommend this game!

This delightful game gets 4 1/2 stars. Could even be a game of the year contender. I always love the start up character or icons that say play best with sound. This one was cute. Game drew me in and kept my interest. Well played out, good characters.
This game had collect fairy creatures, Puzzle pieces, Morphing objects, Wonderful interactive HO's, Simple puzzles, and a jump map.
So is the king a tyrant? Who was the guy at the end. Robin Hood? Left me wondering who the bad guy is.
I recommend this game!

Not as juicy as some of the scarier games and a little comical. HO's were okay, I collected a spider at one point and was disappointed to not get to collect all types of spiders. Way more fun then collecting those crest pieces. Lots of critter action, Great use of inventory, Characters were just okay, Morphing objects, Jump Map which I had to use a lot to find out were I needed to use my items, Game ran smoothly but a bit slow, and I love the open cut scene and the talking on the front page during set up. I think this kinda of missed the mark and I love all Haunted Hotel games but goes to the bottom of my to buy list.
I recommend this game!

This was a fairly good game. I liked the Mechanical Cat and how to use it. Simple working HO's but nice and easy puzzles, Good Characters, Nice game flow, Good Jump Map, and I did find a character to collect. Did not really find anything else to collect nor any Morphing objects. Maybe I missed them. Devices were fairly inventive. Goes on my to buy list and a nice addition to PuppetShow.
I recommend this game!

Ugh I found the suit case HO so frustrating. There was no clear indication what could be move to find some of the pieces. I ended up clicking every centimeter of the brief case looking for pairs for the other half that could be found. One puzzle was good where you had to move ships. Characters were good enough. I think this might be their worse game. I would only buy it if it was free to add to the collection.
I guess there was Morphing objects, but I do not recall finding any. Collect music boxes, Working HO's, Jump Map, and piece together some items in the inventory.
Game flow was just ok and found it frustrating and other games are just as guilty. I had a pottery shard which cut open the curtain to the ballerina stage but would not cut open the paper on the back of a picture. I had to use a seam picker for that. I was just shaking my head to the added frustration. Maybe I am to picky.
I don't recommend this game.

I usually do not like games that are like this, but this one was very good. Long ago a maker made a Library type game that put me to sleep. Morphing puzzle pieces, collect coins with a book imprint; nice job on the coins appearance, Different types of HO's and if you don't like it you can play match three. Good Characters, nice game flow, some critter action, and a jump map. Puzzles were really easy.
This goes on my to buy list. The game was very well done.
I recommend this game!

Hey this was tip top fantastic game. Collect feathers, look for Morphing objects in the HO's, Puzzles were easy breezy, Good Characters, very nice game flow, Good Cut Scenes, and even some critter action. Love the pace and play out of this game and want more. Map was very helpful in decided where to work once in the territory of the Heart of the wind. Goes to tipy top of the to buy list and a good contender for game of the year award.
I recommend this game!

All is Gold and a bit of Mercury too. Great game added to the series which I own most of them. This was well put together and loved the function of the HO's. Puzzles were really good also. Had a little critter action going and lots to do. Good inventory, nice Jump map, and great cut scenes with good characters. Game flow was really nice and this goes near the top of my to buy list. Don't forget to collect the double dragon symbol and look out for HO's Morphing objects.
I recommend this game!

This was a really good game. Morphing objects, collects puzzle pieces, critter action, a jump map, Working HO's, Good puzzles, good inventory, great Characters, and Ambiance. Like the use of inventory items and good fallow through for the story line. Grim has taken up the story line a notch. Well done. Goes to the top of my to buy list.
