I encountered several bugs, the last of which would not allow me to proceed. As previous reviews have said, this is exactly like the original game.

This review is based on the trial period. Pretty much the same scenes as the last game but critters are different. The puzzle games are not fun or interesting; they are the same types as in the past. Different scenes and items to find, and especially different between games, would make future games more interesting.
I don't recommend this game.

This is based on about 20 minutes of game play. The game is a repetition of similar games with little new or interesting, especially ithe puzzles between locations. Either change the game, add new and interesting puzzles, or end the series.
I don't recommend this game.

This is based on playing the demo. As others have noted, the game is similar to several past games. The dialogue was not proofread and the games are the same. Do we need two knives (did not keep the first one), a wheel for a wheelbarrow, and to fead a cat (or other animal) each time? New games are needed! Not challenging or interesting.

With the exception of a few games, there is nothing new. The storyline is similar to past stories. The colors are fairly monochromatic. I won't be buying this game.
I don't recommend this game.

Interesting that they can express send an item from an area they parachuted into so that by the time they get to their next destination (24 hours later) it will have been evaluated. Uh-huh. Storyline not believable. I agree with previous comments about color - the graphics were NOT well done. Too bad; this used to be a great series.
I don't recommend this game.

I agree with previous reviewers that the timer is unwelcome when you want to play for fun (and supposed relaxation). In addition, the backgrounds of minigames are so dark it is difficult to see objects. This game could be great, but as is, a "no" for me.
I don't recommend this game.

The latest version has many issues that take the fun out of playing. The contrast ratio is so poor in many locations that it is impossible to see a dark item against a dark background. Items are mislabeled, such as "satellite" instead of "satellite dish." I will pass on this one.
If there is a next game, an option to skip dialogs would be nice.
I don't recommend this game.

I have enjoyed this series. The game has an interesting story line and flows well, except for the frequent task messages,
BFG: this is the LAST TIME I will buy or recommend that does not allow players to unselect ALL tasks. Tasks are self-evident and just slow down game play (and irritate me!).
I recommend this game!

The earlier games in this series were Christmasy with Christmas music. For the past several years, the developers have just tweaked Park Rangers rather than given us something for Christmas. Some of the scenes are even the same. Several did not have Christmas music.
Step it up if you want me to buy this game again!
I don't recommend this game.
