The Queen has chosen your beautiful sister (that must mean I'm ugly) to be her successor, but you soon find out it's a trap and off you go to save her! This is a beautiful, well done fairy tale with detailed graphics and voiceovers. There are a lot of things to do in each scene so there is no chance for boredom. The HOS are interactive and the items are fairly easy to find. I have to admit that some of the mini games are a wee bit trying but there are a lot of new puzzles and most are fun. You will find and name a cute little squirrel and coins to buy him a new home and bed etc. and he will be there for you whenever you need a little help. An excellent game in both the CE and SE. Enjoy!
I recommend this game!

This is a very well done TM game that is very different than most. There is a tutorial that does a nice job teaching even the most novice player, there are achievements and bonuses available as well. Customers will arrive at the bakery window with a picture above them telling you what item they want and a meter to show how happy they are, if they start to get mad for waiting too long you can offer them a free cookie but they are limited. You will place the ordered item onto the dough machine which allows up to 3 orders and when the dough is ready you right click to send it to the oven only one per oven. Some of the baked goods will need iced or sprinkled or even both before serving and there is a coffee machine as well. After each level there is a mini game some are hidden objects some are repairs like connecting pipes to allow water flow. You can also trade the postman baked goods for upgrades. A really fast paced and fun game to play!

The Martians are stealing the cows and the farmer is conveniently locked in the outhouse, so it's up to you to defend the pasture! The farmer is an inventor and has made several crude weapons to defend the cows. You must choose where to place the water barrel shooters to best defend the path as well as refridgerators to slow them down and you must build new weapons with cog machines, the more cogs you produce the more defense weapons you can build. There are different kinds of Martians and some may require different weapons or strategy. There is an easy tutorial mode to bring you up to speed or you can choose normal mode if you are familiar with this kind of game. I had fun playing this humorous strategy game, enjoy!

There are 4 different slot games to play, two of which are the old fashion bar kind that you have to hit 3 sevens, three bars etc. one of course is the kitty glitter ( and I can't figure out what genre they were going after hopefully not kids) and the only one I liked was Siberian Storm. This one has really clear and colorful graphics the layout was unusual and it had a max bet of 500 virtual coins and it was the only game that seemed to payout. I would much rather bet on Siberian tigers than glittery kittens any day of the week even if the money is virtual, enjoy!

This game is really fun, and donkeys deliver the goods as you hear clip clop clip clop, how cool is that! The goal is to get the tasks finished before the time runs out, and you get stars for how fast you complete the level for bonuses. They will tell you fun facts between levels about Paris AND during the game an occasional pop quiz multiple choice question. You get to improve paths build mines, farms and banks while collecting resources then you click on the men or the donkey to deliver the goods. You must cut stones before delivery or cut wood into floorboards etc. You are gonna love this TM building game, enjoy!

If you are a beginner or just like hidden object games with little else to do, then you will like this game. Basically this is a story about a haunted farmhouse, a missing boyfriend and evil scarecrows but nothing about this game is scary. The graphics are poor there are no voiceovers just a lot of reading dialog, there is very little "adventure" crude simplistic puzzles like putting a torn up picture back together but when you drag the piece even remotely close to where it goes, it shows you where to put the piece. There are so many sparkles indicating where to look that I thought Edward was going to pop up! Each and every scene has a HO puzzle and they are super easy to find even though some of the areas are dark. I am trying to find something positive to say about this game and it's really hard....credits, the credits were nice.

An investigator's first assignment is to find out what was haunting the children at the Linden Shades orphanage, a red boogyman that was so scary they abandoned the beautiful estate! The cutscenes are very well done with real actors, but some are horrible actors. This is a very easy game to play but quite enjoyable, bright and sunny yet still a bit of spooky thrown in. There are a lot of HOS and within each is a mini game such as finding and putting tools back into their correct spots. The mini games are easy as well such as spotting the differences between two alike photos or changing the color of a pie chart to all blue by clicking on one button that moves one space clockwise the other button moves two counterclockwise. There is an interactive map and a good hint system but most of the tasks are easily figured out and it is easy to figure out where to use your inventory items.

I have always said that no other developer can do eerie, creepy and demented as well as this one! You know it's a good game when you are so engrossed in the story that you forget it's a demo and get surprised when it stops. After your husband goes missing, he tries to warn you in a static filled message through the television, and your daughter recognizes the surrounding area and the two of you end up in a dump of a hotel. As you are retracing your husbands steps a mysterious door appears out of nowhere and your daughter follows your husband through the door. Each scene has that creepy, abandoned vibe and those puppets are everywhere! There are only 2 modes of difficulty to play but you will get an interactive map and the hint system does a good job of telling you what to do. This is more of an adventure game with puzzles because the HOS are far and few between and they are only slightly interactive. The mini games aren't really new but they are fun and fairly easy to figure out such as exchanging the colored drinks inside martini drinks to match with the fruit, yellow with lemon, red with strawberry and so on. Throughout the game you will find puppet characters and a dollhouse that allows you to place the characters into the dollhouse revealing a small clue about the husbands childhood with each character. You will also come across pictures and even items used in other games by this developer such as a picture of a watertower and a calculator which I thought was kind of cool so see what else you find. Enjoy!

Snakes alive!!! Another superior House of 1000 doors has been brought to you from my favorite developer and although I didn't like the second edition as well as the first, they have redeemed themselves on this game. To start off with this is a very long game therefor well worth the bucks. There are only 2 modes of difficulty, but the map is really all you need it will indicate areas of interest with an exclamation mark and once you travel there it is easy to figure out what to do and where to use your inventory items. This is a continuing saga about a house that occasionally pops out of nowhere and the House chooses who may enter and who can stay! All of the original characters make a cameo appearance but it won't be vital to have played the other two games to play this one, however, this is an excellent story so I also recommend playing those. The CE has morphing objects and a bonus game that explains where the mysterious man that brought Kate to the house came from and why, but if you can do without that then this is the game you have been waiting for. A young man collapses at the door of the House with Kate in his arms, but the man has gone into a comatose state and not even Kate knows who he is, yet. The world is being destroyed by millions of evil snakes and Kate must travel through several portals to stop this mayhem. The HOS are very interactive and very well done, and the mini games are fun and not to difficult so you probably won't need to skip any of them. There are many things to do in each scene and you will find a lot of inventory to keep you busy. There is a lot of back and forth, and some actions won't be completed right away so you will want to take advantage of the interactive map, enjoy!

I really liked playing this game. What a good story about a woman named Delores who fell in love with Marcus causing their mutual friend to become jealous and in his enragement tries to kill Marcus. Marcus survives but loses his memory and you will try to piece together your life and save Delores from the evil jaded lover. The graphics are good and the surroundings are a nautical theme and you get to find and collect sea creatures, sea shells and turtles! There aren't very many HOS and some are list finds but most are interactive progressive silhouetted items where you use the first find to interact with the second find and so fourth. I think you will like the mini games, many of them are new, most are time consuming but not too difficult such as using arrows to collect all the pearls by passing over the pearls but some of the tiles wont allow you to go a certain direction like no right turn so you may have to choose a longer route. There are a ton of achievements and keep a sharp eye on the zoom in's or you might miss a collectable, enjoy!
