I have bought all of the Vacation Adventure games and have enjoyed them all, this one is OK but very repetitious of all the other games in this series some of the characters who have been one thing in another game have popped up as something else in this one I won't say what as don't want to spoil things for others who have not played this yet, also found that this one seems to be shorter than the others or perhaps that is just me. I only bought the CE as had a freebie coupon, usually only buy the standard. I would still recommend this game if like myself you always buy VA games.
I recommend this game!

I am not enjoying this one as much as I have enjoyed all of the other Northern Tales games, the graphics are great I admit that but there is something very naive about this game which spoils it slightly, the other Northern tales games I play over and over again and still enjoy them, but I don't think I will be doing the same with this one, such a shame.
I don't recommend this game.

I have to say I am quite disappointed with this game, I was really looking forward to 2019 version coming out, it starts off quite well then it seems to be 3 or 4 games in the series spliced together including Cruise director, some of the scenes are even the same with the same people, only exception is the Christmassy feel to it, seems like the creators of these games are running out of original ideas which is a shame.
I don't recommend this game.

I really look forward to these games coming out and never hesitate to buy without trying first however this time I wish I hadn't wasted my money it was just case of same old same old, same faces, only difference was the destinations, one of the pages doesn't let you finish I tried twice and it just finishes when you are half way through it is Miami Cruise Terminal I think, shame, next time I will definitely be trying first.
I don't recommend this game.

I'm in the minority here I know but I haven't enjoyed this game as much as 1-4, too many mini games this time & sometimes one straight after another which gets very tedious and also very repetitive types, shame.
I recommend this game!

I was really enjoying this game, it is slightly different to other HOGs, then I got stuck in THE HALL of RECORDS and that was that, I couldn't go any further and the walk through wasn't any help either, I hate not finishing a game but this one has me completely defeated, so have just uninstalled it. Very disappointing.
I don't recommend this game.

I thought I would like this game as I am a big fan of Gardenscapes and the follow ups to that one, oh dear how disappointing, this really is a poor imitation, it is quite amateurish and doesn't 'flow' very well, the font for some of the words isn't very clear either, on the anagram pages I was often looking for something with 'I' in it and in fact it was an 'L', also the things to decorate the room with....come on, I wouldn't put these items into the local jumble sale they are dreadful! This would be a great little pastime but needs a lot of tweaking.
I don't recommend this game.

Oh dear this game is just too painfully awful, the graphics are fuzzy and very amateurish the little games to earn clue points are better, I can't understand how anyone would want to buy this game, I was bored after 5 minutes.
I don't recommend this game.

This game started off quite well, but as the time went on it became a bit odd and confusing in as much as the names for items changed frequently how a fire extinguisher became a fire exit I shall never know.....odd! you really have to use your imagination regarding item names, 'Think outside the box' slightly, I did however like the dog as the clue finder, made a change from the usual. Another annoying part is if you have to leave the game then that part isn't saved you have to begin again from the beginning of that particular part which is just annoying.
I don't recommend this game.

I really love this game, I bought it after only trying it for 10 mins, there is just enough too-ing and fro-ing from scene to scene without you getting to the point where you get completely lost and forget where you are which I often do with some games LOL! storyline is really good, items not too difficult to find, all in all a great game.......but boy what a messy hospital!
I recommend this game!
