This game was satisfyingly long-playing with plenty of options that added exciting twists and turns to your character's life story. It reminded me of the classic Sims, but with a cheeky narrator and quick, pleasing goals to meet. The player can go to college, earn degrees, work in a lot of neat jobs, earn and save money to buy furniture, clothing, dates, vacation trips, and even renovate the house. Very fun game play that kept me up late for several nights in a row.
I recommend this game!

I loved playing this game. It had just the right amount of challenge and allowed for hours of game play with opportunities to beat your own time (earn gold star) on each level. The collector's edition even offered extra levels to switch sides and play as your old enemies! Lots of fun picking up food, wood, stone, gold, and prioritizing your worker's schedules to meet the goals of each level. So many levels! Very fun game.
I recommend this game!

Poor graphics make finding hidden objects nearly impossible. Hidden within the scene are other areas that hold more hidden objects. I found there were way too many areas to look through to find the objects. Over complicated and not fun at all.
I don't recommend this game.

I loved this game and I still come back and play it. There are so many fun things:
-bright, happy colors and characters
-funny voices and dialogue
-interesting travel and town feature
-ability to own property and gamble with it
-ability to fast forward through hands that you have folded in
-very long play time with intriguing side challenges along the way

This is great for any skill level of poker player. There's a tutorial in the beginning and even an option to catch up on who won the hand and what they won it with.
I especially loved the trophies you can earn for various poker maneuvers and milestones along the way.
I recommend this game!

I always enjoyed watching this tv show but this game was not fun. The products up for bidding kept getting repeated so you remembered the price from before. The gameplay was slow, and you had to wait through the computer players turn before you got to bid or spin the wheel. The setup of each price game was clumsy and made it almost impossible to win. I was frustrated enough to stop playing.
There was no Bob Barker either.
I don't recommend this game.

This game had such poor graphics that it was almost impossible to find the objects (like pieces of wood) that were hidden in the scene. The dialogue was extremely campy and a little creepy (not in a good way).
I got stuck on one of the puzzles because the instructions did not make sense to me.
I don't recommend this game.

This is so far my favorite MCF episode! I loved the story setting, the video characters were interesting and sometimes funny, and the story itself really kept me intrigued. I had a heck of a time figuring out some of the puzzles, but in the end I was able to complete them.
I liked that this game lasted a long time. I thought the town and house scenes were easy to maneuver and the secret tunnels and rooms were exciting to explore.
I recommend this game!

I loved the imagery and storyline in this game, however it became so hard at times I was just wandering around aimlessly in the game trying to figure out what I was supposed to be doing next.
The video portion of this game seemed unnecessary and tedious to watch. There only seemed to be one helpful clue that came from a video.
The maneuverability of the town was confusing. I kept forgetting how to get from one place to another.
Overall, I enjoyed playing this game, when I could figure out what to do.
I recommend this game!

This was the first "Drawn" game I had played. I highly enjoyed the pop-up book challenge sessions and the puzzle areas. The illustrations are colorful and painterly. You can tell that a lot of time had went into making these scenes. It definitely reminded me of a good children's storybook. I felt that it ended suddenly though. Like other reviewers, I did not understand the pigs either!
After finishing this game I went on to play the other two episodes of "Drawn" and they have proven to be a much longer game-play time than this one.
I recommend this game!
