Didn't like the human interaction, Graphics were good, atmosphere poor, HOS looked to be a bit of a jumble but items were in fact easy to find, some of them were interactive. Not the best story line but better than some.The hint button was a waste of time.Too much going back and forth, Far too easy, not tempted to buy the full game.
I don't recommend this game.

I had hoped it was going to be good, but, between my floating cursor and the cut scenes i found it to be rather tedious and boring. HOS were very easy, graphics were very good, map useful, hint button ok, it just seemed very disjointed most of the time.I did like the fact that the story and setting for the game was different from a lot of games doing the rounds at the moment, but not my favourite game.
I don't recommend this game.

having read the reviews i was looking forward to playing this game, oh, dear, graphics were well done, voice overs were good, kept reverting to drawings for information from the characters, didn't like that. doors that kept opening every time the cursor passed over them, very irritating, Played some of the demo but found the whole thing flat and bland, couldn't finish it which was a shame because it could have been a good game.HOS were different from the norm, they consisted of making items whole instead of just finding things. Moving about in the game was a bit odd,felt as though i was on a trampoline.I won't be buying the full game.
I don't recommend this game.

Another great Elephant game, wonderful graphics, nice music, voice overs were good, very believable. HOS crisp and clear set out really well didn't have to spend lots of time looking for things.Loved the creepy organ grinder, Good strong story line, haven't got anything bad to say about this game, you need to try it, you will be hooked from the start, congrats to the developers, more of the same please.
I recommend this game!

played 10 minutes of demo, became very frustrated and bored, too many sparkles and hints that weren't asked for, I try to play with as little help as i can manage. The graphics were poor, the HOS were bad, some things were either minute or faded into the background, you certainly need the magnifying glass!! it seemed to me to be very heavy going.
I don't recommend this game.

reminded me of ERS games which i like, so that was in it's favour, the music was lovely, so different didn't distract me from the game, voice over of female wasn't very convincing, but got past that. Easy HOS same with the puzzles, Story line was ok, played so many games were husband, son, daughter, or whoever, has been spirited away, but at least it didn't start with a car crash!! spent a pleasant few hours playing and i will be playing it again. Overall it is a nice game.
I recommend this game!

I had high hopes for this game, tried the trial but didn't finish it, far too many HO scenes and some items very difficult to find.If there had been more adventure and less HO this could have been a good game,I like dark and spooky games but this is just dark!!! I would have bought it if there had been more to do than just going from one pile of junk to another.The developers missed a great opportunity to make this one of the best games around.If you like HO games this is for you.
I don't recommend this game.

It started with a car crash, and i thought here we go again!! but how wrong i was ,the graphics are great the characters are really quirky and a bit creepy, a lot of HO games, more than i like but they are so clear and easy it isn't a problem, mini games are good too. The fairy tales idea is brilliant, so much going on there isn't time to become bored with this game. I bought the first Weird Park, it was good but this is far better, the journal is helpful as is the hint button.

Having played Shiver The Vanishing Hitchhiker i was expecting this one to be good,bit of a let down,it isn't a bad game, just not very challenging, very creepy at times and the graphics were fine, the butler's voice over is good.The story line and mini games are good too,the end was a let down but perhaps there will be a part two?I'm glad i didn't pay full price for it.I found it quite easy, some other gamers might not,

Based on the trial, what a lovely game,very crisp graphics and music that doesn't detract from the game. I really like the mini games and the FROGS, makes a change from trying to find obscure items. Lots to do in each and every scene,I enjoyed playing Dark Parables Red Riding Hood and this is just as good if not better, I will certainly be buying it, Only downside is it could have been a bit more challenging,
I recommend this game!
