Life really sucks when an evil witch lives in your neighborhood! First she destroys your beautiful castle, then your wedding, turns you into stone, and now she is after your only child! Well young Bella has fairy godmothers to save and some magical powers up her sleeve as well. You will need the help of the dragon to lift heavy objects, you simply play the flute and he swoops down to help. The fairy will help you assemble a wand which you will use to break things at first and you will acquire different skills to use in the game. There are a lot of HOS, fairly easy mini games and a custom mode for difficulty. You will help all the forest friends along the way and some will help you when the time comes. Just as in the other Princess games you will come across areas that have been cursed by the witch, dark and evil. You need to remove all the evil creatures hidden in the scene such as goblins snakes and bats and once they are removed the room or scene will transform back into the beautiful bright area it once was. A wonderful fairy tale/magical SE to play, cute and whimsical and relaxing but not necessarily easy. Enjoy!

Aayla has just learned that she is the chosen one (of coarse) the female child born with a smile that will save the world. After her evil Uncle of darkness kills her Grandfather she must embark on an epic journey to fight darkness and save the world from evil. This is a good game with good graphics the only problem I have is for a collectors edition there aren't any bells or whistles, no achievements, no collectables, only a bonus game and a few extras after the game. There aren't many HOS but they are interactive such as finding 3 (very small) eggs and placing them in the nest, and the same scene is repeated a second time. The puzzles aren't new either and very simple like swapping tiles to complete a picture or picking the correct keys to match the keyhole. There are only 2 modes of difficulty and both have slow charge times for the hint button but there is a map for traveling. The game starts out slow but picks up and becomes more interesting when you reach the mountains. There is enough to do in each scene to keep you entertained and you do have to travel back and forth a bit but I personally will wait on the SE. Enjoy!

I was on the fence with this game, partly because of lack of direction and the level of difficulty trying to figure it out and losing the battle because I didn't figure it out in time. The graphics are really good but there just weren't enough options for my taste. One feature I liked was when you were choosing which weapon to purchase it showed you with a brown circle, the range size that each upgrade covered. I also liked the pause/play button so you could choose when to start the next battle wave. I think most TD fans will enjoy this game once they figure everything out especially if you buy it and have more than one hour to play. Enjoy!

Those horrible evil trees are at it again, only the light keeps them away and the light house is malfunctioning! This game is different than most and even though this is a SE, you still get to collect hidden acorns (without the tree) At the beginning you can choose from 3 levels of difficulty OR you can choose all of your own settings from tutorials, to sparkles on or off and even how fast, if any, the hint and skip meters recharge, it's all up to you. You can even opt the available task glitter on the map. In the beginning you will drop your protective amulet and must replace the broken pieces with new ones you find throughout your journey before you can recharge it. Some of the items you find will need to be examined closer such as a coat hanger that needs straightened out before using it to retrieve a lighter out of reach. There are lot's of inventory items to find and they aren't always used right away and I like that because it makes you think about where to use that item. You will rescue a mischievous hamster to help you and you get the choice to name him so have fun with that name. The HOS are different as well, some are fragmented items to find but most are interactive lists, the twist however is that the items don't disappear they just move out of the way to expose the real item you need such as pieces of a torn note or gears to fix the machine you are working on. There are several mini games and they truly are different, in one puzzle you must guide your ship through treacherous waters and avoid rocks, wind and lightning and you must lure out a sea monster and try to slip past him or start over. Another cool puzzle was trying to match specific flower patterns from your clue in a heap of flowers and if you chose wrong you had to start over. I will say that I liked the CE better because I love morphing objects but this one's a definite winner in my book. Enjoy!

What a fun and addicting game. Very simple rules to follow, simply click and drag your mouse over the rope to cut it and release the food allowing it to drop into the monsters mouth. Oh but wait, did I mention that the other goal is to collect 3 stars randomly placed by cutting just the right rope at the right time to swing by the stars before being eaten? As the game progresses you will get added features such as bubbles or extra ropes. You should try this game, it will surprise you! Enjoy!

I am downloading the full version as I write this review. Lately I haven't played any HOS that I didn't want to stop....until now! This is truly a game that will drawl you into the story and hook, line. sinker you will want to purchase this one just for the story alone much less the beautiful graphics crisp video and fun puzzles. The evil witch is aging fast and lures beautiful women with the promise of being her successor, and then steals their youth and leaves their souls trapped in an icy prison. The HOS are well done and interactive such as finding the gnomes hat and placing it on his head or opening up a secret compartment to reveal the inventory items, There are quite a few mini games and they are fun and completely doable such as completing a picture of the dwarves by switching the tiles until you get the correct picture, but some of the tiles are frozen so you must switch the main character at the top between Snow White and the Queen to alternate which tiles are frozen. There are 3 modes of difficulty, and a map for traveling as well as active zones listed. You can earn lots of achievements so take care not to misclick or get hints during the HOS. Shortly after the game begins you will find and befriend a cute squirrel and you earn achievements for helping him out and fixing his home etc. as well as being able to visit the store with the coins (256 I believe) that you find throughout the game. This game has more puzzles than hidden object scenes, but it has a bunch of extras in this version bonus play, wallpaper, videos and extra HOS and mini games which makes it well worth buying the CE. Enjoy!

I really liked this game. There are only two modes of difficulty and I will admit the easy mode is too easy but either mode is fun. The Princess is forbidden to enter a locked room, she enters anyway and discovers she has a twin sister. Now we are off to find her and search for clues. The tiles are modern and easy to identify, available tiles are well lit and you can shuffle the remaining tiles at any time. Between sets you are given a mini game to complete such as matching inventory items onto the scene with an associated item like a fish to the fishing pole, a horse to a seahorse. You should try the demo and relax for an hour or so. Enjoy!

This is a well done hidden object game with mini games to complete after each HOS, and you can skip the mini games by using one of your hint coins. Some of the scenes are difficult and you will want to collect the coins available in each scene because sooner or later you are going to need a hint. This is a timed game with achievements such as mis-click penalties and fast finds and you get points added from whatever time you have left over. The best part of this game are the fun facts that are given about each section of the country you visit. The mini games are very simple and they have good instructions, match 2 or more, jigsaw. matching symbols on 3 discs to name a few. Enjoy!

The youngest son of the Viking leader has been sent on a quest to find the dwarf that cursed his fathers ring as well as his life. While at sea a horrible accident has happened leaving the Viking and his crew ship wrecked and preparing for survival! The graphics are well done and the music cheerful, the repetitive voices get old after a while saying, I'm on it, I've already left and okay. The most unique aspect in this TM game is the choice of three modes of difficulty and the fact that you can play untimed for a relaxing and fun game. You must clear away trees, fix buildings (and destroy others) collect food and upgrade buildings. Another cool part of this game is the bonus bar, when filled and then activated, it gives you the ability to run faster or build faster and more! Very good game you will want to try this for sure. Enjoy!

This is a simple game of shooting marbles similar to playing pool. You can choose the background or board to play, and you can play against the computer or each other. You shoot the golden ball at the silver balls, the goal is to remove all of the silver balls and if the gold ball goes off the board, you have to start over. Different obstacles such as bumpers and pegs will be added as the game progresses and the number of moves that it takes you determines whether you receive one, two, three or zero stars, however you can restart the level as many times as you want when playing against the computer. I had fun playing this game but it does get a bit boring after a while. Enjoy!
