This is one dull game. We never really get to see these :beautiful places: which I didn't find even remotely of interest -- I wouldn't travel there. The same things are found over and over and over again. Obviously the devleopers just copied one scene to another.
If I ever wanted to know what it was to be a rat in a cage, I discovered it in this absolutely horrid game. The collectors hints do nothing for you as they give no edge. Even playing "EASY" means you are constantly nagged.
This is a take off the off Jewel Match 3 game series, this time with a Xmas theme. Problem is there i no theme, and less directions, so if you are not familiar with March 3 games it will be a bit of a chore. The key is you cannot blow up the obstacles but must match 3 to release them. The "trophies" aren't worth getting so the key is the game itself -- you either like matching or don't.
Some of the matches are tricky, as they block out half of the image. The hide and seek one are tough because of the background matches so well. Graphics aren't the greatest which is why matches can be work, but that's what you want, you don't want everything handed to you. Biggest drawback I saw was the horrible sound effects, so I turned them off. I really enjoyed it, surprisingly.
I played the whole game and can say two things flaw it: one the cursor is rather flaky and does not always hit the exact mark and the game really wants perfection. Second, while the first part -- up to purchase -- isn't bad the second part, after purchase, can get repetitive which is good I guess as you know what to do..
I liked the game. Colorful bright but I think I got one minigame in 90 minutes of play. I did not understand what to do. Also I do not know if I gound all the little faeries in each tableau, I felt lost.
The tiles are small and uninspiring. The game did not grab me.

The game takes forever. It's bit over long and I got bored after a while. Then finally in the room with the palm tree I could not work the bottle no matter what I did -- so I think it's a blog and then of course there is no hint to help. Not bad though.
This game is more like chess than a 3 match. You really have to plan out your moves and know how things are going to fall to get the right combinations. Can't stand the marimba music and the colorus are garish.
I recommend this game!

Did not enjoy this hunt and match game at all. Slow and ponderous. Poor feedback.
