You wake up in a panic, you had a horrible dream that your sister was being chased by pure evil, you call her and there's no answer! It's off to your twin sisters house, the house you grew up at to search for clues. Flashbacks come rushing back, when your parents died, Anna began to have problems talking about other worlds, and you discover she was right, the doctors in a psychiatric hospital had experimented on her and she's in trouble! Nothing will stop you now in this game you have an excellent story, great graphics, and just the right amount of challenge. There are a lot of mini games and some of them are a little frustrating but there's always the skip button! The HOS are a mixture of list finds and finding an object that fits the shadow in your inventory. There are lot's of things to do in each scene so it won't get boring, I am definitely using a credit on this one because I have to finish the story!

This is a match 3 that takes place underwater in Atlantis. The goal is to earn money and building supplies to help the mermaids rebuild the city. The match 3 itself is the usual clear out all the blue tiles by making match's over them, some have chains, some double chains, some light blue need to be matched twice and so on. There is a meter on the side you try to fill by collecting a certain amount of match's for each star, anchors etc. You can choose adventure (story) mode or freeplay, and in freeplay you can choose timed or untimed. After clearing all the tiles you receive a brick that you must then drop to the bottom to win that level. You can then use that brick to build an available building. When you make several matches 4 or more you get bombs and octopus as well as spears and extra time etc. Enjoy!

I will admit that I had a hard time figuring out how to play this strategic time management game due to the lack of instructions or tutorial available. But after several lost battles I think I get it. Basically you click on an open spot to build a tower and several options pop up, you choose to build a mortar cannon tower, a rifle tower, a hatchet tower, a forge tower etc. You need to place these towers (3 to begin with) in spots that will cover the most area from invading greenskin dwarves and choose the best type of defense for that area. You must upgrade these towers when they become available and you get to build new towers when you get enough points. At the top of the screen are 3 tools to help you, the first is a target for mortar shells, place this where you need artillery to fire. The second is a target that slows down a group of invaders for a few seconds. The third is a horn that blows and I have no idea what this horn does yet, sorry. You can replay the game level as often as you want, but you have to win the battle before moving on to the next level. You earn gold bars, 1-3 that will be used to purchase upgraded weapons. I think I'm using a credit on ye addicting battle game. Enjoy!

Princess Isabella is facing another challenge, she has learned that the witch had taken her mother, turned her to stone and is using her magic essence to remain young. Now the witch has plans to take Bella's fairy godmothers so she can use Bella's essence as well! There are a lot of cut scene videos telling the story but they are movie quality and tell a good tale. The HOS are a mixture of the classic list finds as well as remove 12 evil items or find 4 frogs, 6 mushrooms etc. Most of the mini games are simple such as color wheels that you must turn until the colors in the center from the wheel on the left and right match all the same color. You will find a pan flute that belongs to the dragon, when you play the flute he will swoop down and lift heavy objects for you. The fairy will help you construct a magic wand that, as you gain new powers, you can use the wand to break things open etc. The goal is to break things open to get portrait pieces that you will put together to break the enchantment spell that binds the fairies to evil. Although this is a great addition to the Princess Isabella series I think I'll wait for the SE because other than the bonus chapter and wallpaper and guide there's no bells or whistles on this CE. Enjoy!

Great game for adults and kids alike. This game requires a little strategy but you have all the time in the world because there's no timer. The klepto rats have stolen the professors rainbow making machine and have hidden the parts in different chests and you have to recover the parts and rebuild the rainbow machine. Basically you have a ball at the top that drops down to hit the chest to open it, to do this you must place a rebounder (a line you can place anywhere and in any position) in the right spot so that when the ball drops it will land on the rebounder and the platform will allow the ball to roll into the chest to open it, Some of the scenes will have bouncy marshmallows and various obstacles. You get more points for the first try but you can replay as often as you like. Points can be used in the store to buy power ups like longer rebounders. Enjoy!

Another quality game and a good Redemption Cemetery saga! You are on your way home with your faithful companion when you realize something's not quite right on the train, the passengers are strange and the last stop isn't your usual stop..... Welcome to the Redemption Cemetery, you have been chosen to help those poor restless souls by the keeper of the cemetery and she is holding your adorable puppy hostage until you complete your mission! Good story, right? The quality of this game is great, the developers have spent a year working on this one to make you feel like you are actually the one helping all those people. The HOS are well done and even though some of the scenes are dark you will still be able to find the items without using the hint button. The HOS are interactive on one HOS you actually have to find matches to light the torches before being able to see. The mini games are fun like adjusting numbered discs under mechanical birds to make all of the birds sing at once, adjusting each disc and pressing the play button until the correct number is reached to achieve the goal. The keeper will give you a crow to help you with your quest. You must get elements from the people you are helping such as air, earth, fire etc. Once you get an element you must charge the element by completing a puzzle such as switching colored puzzle pieces until all three corners of a triangle are the same color and disappears, then you can use the element of air for flight or earth for digging etc. I think you will enjoy this game and is well worth your time in either CE or SE. Enjoy!

If you like solitaire then your gonna love Solitaire Egypt! This game is similar to Seven Seas Solitaire (which I also love) where you are given a spread of several cards with the last card face up, and the remainder of cards in another pile that you draw from. The object is to play your cards onto the board either higher or lower for instance if a two is displayed on the board you can either play a three or an ace. If you don't have the correct card then you choose a card from your deck one at a time until you get a playable card. You can play either the campaign mode (story) or just free play, the story mode requires you meet the bronze, silver or gold level. In story mode, there is a penalty for using the hint or undo button. There are also wild cards to uncover which can be used as any card in the correct suite only. This is a good game to whittle away some down time. Enjoy!

I couldn't resist the play on words. Wow, what a game, those horrible trees are encroaching on our town because the only thing keeping the evil trees at bay are light and our lighthouse has caught on fire and the door is locked from the inside! To make matters worse, the lighthouse keeper has gone into the forest to try and break the enchantment spell cast on these malicious trees. You will earn lot's of achievements during this game as well as acorn collectables and forest fruits, the acorns you find will be displayed on a large oak tree. There are a ton of new and fun mini games such as steering a boat through treacherous waters trying to avoid rocks, storms and sea monsters, if you run into the rocks etc. you crash and have to start over! The HOS are different as well, the items you find move out of the way to reveal notes or puzzle pieces that you put together to reveal the clue and there is a lot of interactive play as well as achievements to earn in the HOS. At the beginning of the game you can choose from three levels of difficulty OR you can customize the game with or without sparkles, map indicators or even how fast the hint button recharges, cool huh? This is a well produced game that is fun to play with great graphics and a great story, I suggest this one for purchase, enjoy!

This is a match 3 game that follows the story of the ancient Greeks and their gods. The Greeks have forgotten their gods and when they no longer make sacrifices to the gods they abandon the people and it's up to you to find these ancient artifacts and restore them to Mt. Olympus and the gods! The match 3 is well done, but a little on the easy side because of all the tools and weapons to clear the board it doesn't seem too challenging but it's still fun. The object is to match 3 at the bottom of the board to allow pieces of the artifacts to fall off thus collecting the artifact. If you make a match 5 or more you will fill up an amulet a little at a time and when it is fully charged you click it to release the lightning that destroys several tiles, this feature starts new with each level. You will also release different tools such as extra time, lightning bolts and bombs to help clear the board and you can stockpile several of these to use when the levels get more challenging. Between levels there is a HOS where you first find several pieces of an artifact and then you have to replace the artifacts you find back into the scene in the correct place. Great entertainment, Enjoy!

I had trouble deciding on either 4 or 5 stars, we need to have a 1/2 option! This is yet another addicting TM game with a wild wild west theme, how cool is that. You will select a plot of land to build a house to increase population, a ranch or hunters cabin to increase food, a sheriff building to protect the town or a lumber mill or gold mine etc. to increase resources such as lumber or ore. After constructing the buildings you need to upgrade the buildings in order to meet the goal in the allotted time to earn silver or gold status. You might need to increase population to 45 as well as build deluxe stores or ranches. This game isn't real fast paced and you don't have much collecting to do but you do have to meet the goals within a certain time to receive a silver or gold sheriff's badge. I only wish there were a few things available to manage or collect to make it a bit harder but I still like this game. Enjoy!
