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!

There isn't much going on here, you have the option of 4 different types of match gameplay from your typical match 3 to click and drag as many matching tiles as possible. It also has the same tools as all the other match games, the hammer, lightning etc. Same ole match twice to break this tile and then there is a hidden object scene between sets. The music is annoying and this game is boring! By the way what does the story have to do with the game and the beginning cut scene is the only time they tell part of a story.
I don't recommend this game.

This is a game that parents will be doing most of the controlling, perhaps asking the child where Teddy should go or what Teddy should do or who to talk to. Even though it is a simple game, mostly just click in the direction of the highlighted arrow or point and click on a character to have a conversation or click on an item when the cursor changes to a hand to pick up that item, I still believe the average age that will enjoy this game is probably 4 or 5 and won't know what to do next without help. Teddy Floppy Ear visits his uncle who is an artist, however if this is supposed to be for kids, why did Teddy's Uncle ask him to walk home alone and give him the address asking him if he could find the place in a small town even though he had never been there? Teddy will help others along the way (as he's walking all over the woods alone) such as the bear who takes the bee's honey without asking while destroying the garden. Teddy explains to the bear that he must ask nicely for the honey and the bee's will gladly share! It is a cute adventure to play with the kids if you can overlook the bad advise of walking alone. There are a few mini games such as click on 5 things Teddy can use on his trip to the mountains but other than that it's mostly just an adventure story. Enjoy!
I don't recommend this game.

It probably won't matter what I write on this review because of being on the last page, but never the less, here it is. This is a great game although I did notice a few glitches here and there it didn't interfere with the gameplay. I really liked the feature of finding coins in each scene that are used when you come across treasure chests containing various items. There is a map for speedy travel as well as indicating areas of interest and coins available. Some of the items you find will have a plus sign next to it indicating that it will need to be combined with another item before using. The HOS are interactive and fun, in one scene when you click on one cabinet door several open, when you click on a different door some shut while others open! When you become engrossed in a game so much that you want to play.....just a little longer...then you know it's a big fish keeper and that's exactly what will happen when you play this game. Enjoy!

What a great game, although I prefer the CE because I love the added features of morphing objects (or morphing sea creatures) as well as achievements. On the other hand, the SE game is definitely worth the buy because the story is great the graphics are eerie and the atmosphere will leave you feeling as though you are alone on an island desperately searching for your twin brother against evil forces. The HOS are well done, with lot's of interaction and in both list finds as well as find 4 frogs, 4 spiders etc. The mini games are good and not difficult such as 4 discs with wire lines that you must match up to allow electricity to travel from the center to the outside light bulbs through the wires. There is a map for traveling as well as indicating an area of interest by glowing and the hint system is excellent and the arrow will continue to show you the path to take through each scene until it reaches the point of interest and then shows you what inventory item to use. This is a great game for Mother's Day and I would like to say Thank You to all the mother's of the world who made us all what we are today! Happy Mother's Day, enjoy!
