I find it difficult to find games on Big Fish that are challenging enough for me. I don't care about storylines and I rarely ever listen to the dialog because it's typically very bad. But this game was fun all around. The puzzles were definitely worthy and the HOPs weren't the same old thing over and over again. I love the option of the Match 3 instead of the HOP. This one had a nice creep factor at times and I personally like that. I would highly recommend it.
Games like this are just time killers. I found the "puzzles" to be so lame. There was only one puzzle that I thought was somewhat challenging (the blue, red, green, pink tile puzzle near the end). Everything was just way too easy. But maybe that's your thing. Just wasn't mine.
I guess I can see why this game is popular. It's definitely got visual appeal. And it is chocked FULL of games and puzzles. But they are WAY TOO EASY. I guess I'm spoiled by Nancy Drew games that have challenges that are sooo hard you end up cheating with a walk through. You won't need that on this game, except for maybe one or two puzzles that were just too weird to figure out without some help. I hate "click click you're done" puzzles that leave you going "huh?" This game had lots of those moments. But I will give them credit on the length. It lasted a good long time.
