This game was just too cheesy for me to enjoy. True the gameplay was a bit different than most games, but not necessarily better. The only thing I liked was the feature of finding origami items throughout the game, I didn't even finish the demo!
I don't recommend this game.

Just played the demo and when it expired I was truely surprised I had been playing for an hour, I was so engrossed in the game moment. I was playing in advanced mode and I enjoyed the HO's and the puzzles that were different than the same old same old in a lot of games. Bottom line...my expectations are high and this game will be added to my inventory.
I recommend this game!

The game itself has very good grapics, and the puzzles are easy. There are a lot of HO's and they are easy as well. There is a lot of collecting and back and forth dispursement of items (more than one item needed in most) but a map is available for traveling. It is an entertaining game but not very challengeing and I became a little bored by the end of demo.
I recommend this game!

I have a very high standard on HO games and believe me you'll enjoy this game. I don't have any complaints either because this game was well done, I even read through the "trivia" in the bonus content which I found interesting. You won't regret adding this game to your inventory, well worth the money.
I recommend this game!

I am very picky about HOS games but this game had me hooked from the very beginning. I love the eerie vibe of the game, the graphics are realistic and the games were different than most and I never got bored playing this Collector's Edition. The bonus chapter did a nice job of tying it all together.
I recommend this game!

One of my favorite games was Phantasmat and this game kept me entertained as well. The story was great, the HOS was very well done, graphics were good and puzzles were fairly easy. I bought the collectors version after playing just a few minutes, knowing that it was going to be as good as the first Phantasmat. This is a game worth buying!
I recommend this game!
