There were some pretty bad technical problems with this game. Slow response times for every action and had to use the system cursor. A quick check in at the forums showed me that this isn't an issue just for me.
I couldn't last long enough through the trial to rate the game itself but I would suggest that you give the demo a whirl to make sure you can actually play the game.
I don't recommend this game.

What a disappointment! I was looking forward to another Awakening game but this is not the game I was waiting for.
It was torture just getting through as much of the demo as I did, I couldn't finish it.
Illogical steps, constant back and forth for one stupid little thing, exactly the type of game play I do not like.
Glad I did the trial, almost used a game credit for this one just because of the name. What's up BoomZap? I love your games...just not this time.
I don't recommend this game.

This is a buy for me!
It's a match 3 similar to the 4 Elements games, which I loved. Same game play with very smooth graphics and attractive artwork.
I like making sure I get all the plants on the sides watered, it adds a little bit of challenge.
The fact that it tracks the high scores gives the game a good re-play value that I missed in 4 Elements 2.
No real instructions so you kind of have to figure things out as you go and click on the tools to see what they do as they appear. I'm playing in the relaxed mode - so I can take all the time I want.
It's a fun, relaxing, pretty little game. Try it!
I recommend this game!

This game is adorable and played in the untimed mode, very relaxing and pleasant.
While I won't be purchasing it today, it is on my list for when I'm in the mood for something not very challenging and have run out of games that fit that mood.
If you're looking for something to relax for a bit, you might want to try this one.
I recommend this game!

The graphics are really well done and I wanted to like this game, Unfortunately, as another reviewer noted, the cursor hangs - even when I changed it to my system cursor. Just couldn't sit through that annoyance. Could just be my computer so do try the trial for yourself.
A "no buy" for me. Can't comment much about the game because it was too frustrating to play the trial long enough to have a fair opinion. Cute artwork is the best I can say.
I don't recommend this game.

I'm really enjoying playing this game. For now, I'm using the relaxed mode but plan to play through again with the added pressure of the timed factor.
Fun game.
I recommend this game!

The artwork for this game is outstanding, every scene is beautifully done. I wanted to love the game but the actual game play left me kind of bored.
There were too many illogical tasks and the flow of the game felt disjointed. Odd things you needed to do, unexplained objects for strange combinations.
As it stands, I've been working my way slowly through the bonus chapter for over 3 days...just don't have the interest to go back and finish it.
I don't recall feeling this way during the trial...did it fall off the rails?
I don't recommend this game.

The flow of the game is logical and pleasant. Cool story line and fun tidbits throughout the game kept it interesting.

I'm sorry to say I really did not enjoy this game. While the artwork and all was done quite well, the game play itself was tedious and awful.
The game started off O.K. but after a while I just clicked on the hint button to move me to the next spot so I could just get the dreaded thing over with. Back here for one thing, over there for one thing....back and forth and back and forth. Gaack.
I finished playing only because I had paid good money for it. Can't recommend this one.
