This is a time management game where the goal is to plant, harvest, and sell a product. You can only play easy mode to start with until you reach level 8. You will plant crops of wheat, water, and then harvest wheat. The harvest will be used to produce flour at the mill, feed chickens and then gather the egg, build pie factories etc. Your product will be stored in a shed and you can sell as many units as you want according to the capacity of the shed and of course everything can be upgraded to produce more or hold more product. You must also chase away Mr. Bigs pesky minions that are trying to destroy your ranch, enjoy!

I'm a puzzle buff and I thought this game would be a piece of cake because the pieces are pretty big, Turns out I am about 10 seconds too slow on almost every puzzle. The goal is to collect three keys on each mosaic puzzle, one for completing the picture, one for completing without any mistakes and the third for completing within a specified time. The pictures are really good and they progress in difficulty, I didn't really like the music but it's still a really entertaining game, enjoy!

This Dark Canvas has taken us to a beautiful coastal town in Greece where several people are plastered, literally turned into human sculptures! As you investigate this murder you realize that the finger is being pointed in every direction, with the biggest suspect being the sculptor's assistant. Whodunit? Why are they being killed? A great story and the graphics are so realistic that I actually paused on the bridge to listen to the tranquil sounds of a babbling brook, birds chirping and crickets cricketing. (I think they chirp as well?) The HOS are a mixture of interactive list finds and progressive finds where you find the first item as shown as a silhouette, and you use that item such as a key into a lock, to uncover the next item and so forth. I will say I was a bit disappointed that all of the HOS were doubled up, but they were still fun. There are lot's of mini games, most are simple such as swapping puzzle pieces or following directions step by step as shown on an illustration. I liked the CE better because of the morphs and collectibles but this is a decent and entertaining game, enjoy!

That's a new twist, the weatherman can control the weather! He has frozen the town in the middle of July, frozen your baby sister and then kidnapped her! Why is he infatuated with your sister and how exactly is he able to do that? You're about to find out in this adventure, which has collectible butterflies and some of the best achievements I've have seen in a hidden object game. The graphics are clear and very lifelike accompanied by some epic soundtracks. The HOS are interactive list finds and they are well done, the items were easy to identify. The mini games aren't the easiest on the block, at least for me they were time consuming and required thought process. One of the mini games was a round disc with marbles of various colors, and matching colored pie sections on the disc with the center hole empty. The object was to use the empty space to make room for a marble to be placed in the correctly matched pie color by turning the rings on the disc and moving marbles into an empty slot until all marbles were in the right colored section. Sounds confusing but I love it, and I really think this is a top notch game worthy of a CE, enjoy!

Twas a rainy day and due to extreme bordome, thought I would give this game a try. It is an okay game but nothing to write home about. It is basically a match 3 game and the goal is to shoot scarabs at the tiles that line up at the top shooting as large of groups as possible. You can right click to add another line quickly and as you progress, the levels give you fewer matches. Once you shoot a group of matching tiles, they drop gold coins that you must "catch" and you can earn bonuses which will help you clear the board. If you miss a matching group, a stone tile will appear and block your path so be careful where you aim!
Help Princess Arianna save her kingdom and defeat the Dark Witch in this clever hidden-object adventure and match-3 game.

The evil witch Morgana (she get's around) has cast a spell on Princess Arianna's Kingdom and with the help of a kind white witch, a lazy frog and a white dove the curse might be broken. I have a few complaints such as the fact that your game progress isn't saved when you leave, some of the items in the list HOS are unrecognizable and I wish the match 3 games were a tad bit harder. Other than that it's not a bad game, certainly not first class but, still entertaining. There aren't many things to do besides match 3 games and hidden object games, an occasional untangle the ropes or make a candle in a mold or acquire ingredients for a potion, enjoy!

It's the end of a long grueling workday and you hear a desperate knock on your door. You open the door and SURPRISE! There's a baby on your doorstep. Grab the baby put her in the car and set out on a high speed chase to find this horrible person. Out of nowhere a mansion appears, it's never been there before, what's going on? This is a really good story with a fairy tale ending (it's really good) You find a mechanical owl named Gears who helps you retrieve the items too high to reach and your cell phone is your journal and map. You can customize the difficulty or choose existing modes and the CE version has roses to collect and morphing items in the hidden object scenes. The HOS are truly different, some require you to find keys to unlock sections of the lists others are finding the items on the list which simply move to reveal pieces of the final item, my favorite ones were silhouetted items to find on stained glass and they blended into the designs of the stained glass and the item shown such as a frog was not the exact shape you were looking for. There were so many great mini games, my favorite was two talking heads on a door that would ask you a question such as how many vases are there in the foyer and you had to go and count them and return and choose which head was correct. There are several books you find that have 7 fragmented picture pieces to find and the story is told through several diaries you find. Each page of the diary requires you to find several shapes before the next page is revealed. You will find and enter several portals and travel to different countries and even to the moon! I can't find a single thing to complain about so stop reading and start downloading, enjoy!

You thought this would be just like any other investigation. But now you find yourself lost in a mysterious mansion brimming with strange creatures, comatose colleagues, and mysterious tentacles around every corner…

I'm a huge fan of Haunted Halls and even Dr. Blackmore! This game doesn't disappoint, there's plenty of creepy, eerie, weird and plain ole paranormal going on, wrap it all up with some slimy tentacles and you've got yourself an awesome adventure. You are called into an investigation by a detective who doesn't have any paranormal experience, and when you arrive, you probably wish you didn't either. The owner of the house Dr. Gauss, may not be who she seems and when your fellow investigator is found hogtied and hypnotized we know something ain't quite right! You receive special goggles that allow you to decipher codes which in fact is a series of mini games. You are given several pairs of codes and you must place them in boxes side by side with the last symbol matching the first symbol on the next pair and when complete will reveal a message. The graphics are the usual white washed pastels that this series has perfected and I have to point out that they have done one of the best jobs of making the characters lip movements appear to match the words, that I have seen. There aren't a lot of HOS but they are interactive and progressive where you find the first item as shown as a silhouette and use that item in the scene to receive the next item and so forth. The whole place is filled with zoo animals which are displayed in your "zoo" but I really have no idea what the point of it is and you will come across several vials such as love vials to collect and there are 5 vials of 4 different potions.This is a solid and entertaining game that you will enjoy even if you haven't played any of the other Haunted Halls. Hopefully you will solve this mystery and avoid Morpheus the god of dreams and the evil Dr. Blackmore the half man half octopus creepy guy, enjoy!

Incredible graphics and a good sense of humor. This game is addicting and now I need to play the other 3 games as well! It is basically a space invaders type game on steroids (the turkeys are on steroids too) You are in a spacejet and you shoot flying turkeys in space, no worries, it's in another galaxy! These turkeys are ruthless and shoot eggs at you and there are asteroids to watch out for as well. If you kill a full grown turkey a pumpkin will fall or turkey legs and you want to grab them if possible for extra points. I only wish that when you lose all your lives you didn't have to start all over, enjoy!
