The graphics are beautifully enchanting! I wish I could build a fantasy world like this, for real. Charming storyline. The fact that the game has no hints, except what you glean from the charms you collect along the way, adds to the adventure. I found it a very fun, intuitive and captivating use of my time! I would highly recommend this to anyone who does not have to have the answers at once, but instead, enjoys figuring things out the hard way! Love it!!! Am looking forward to the rest of the series.
I recommend this game!

In the very first part I actually thought "ok, this would be a good child's game", but that didn't last long. I loved how challenging it is, no hint button, so you really have to use your brain cells to figure each chapter out. The graphics are great, and I had a great deal of fun trying to figure out the challenges! I highly recommend this game!!!

Not what I had anticipated, given it's a Poe. Too easy, gets boring because of that. The graphics are great. If you like HOS period then you would like this. To each their own. I recommend this only if you are into a lot of HOS.
I recommend this game!

So fun with the real people, especially when done as if they were really down south. The gardener and his wife, the maid, are a great touch. Totally enjoyed it. Well worth getting the collectors edition. Great graphics, sound, and a good challenge, great story line. Loved the puzzles!

I bought this game months ago. I have played all the levels, many times over. It is my go to game when I don't want to play anything too heavy minded. But don't take that the wrong way. There are at least 100 different levels, each one is different. It takes wit and determination, and the right combination of skill and use of power ups to level up. I enjoy it immensely! You can kick back and take as long as you want to get through a level. I rated the story line excellent, but there really isn't a story. But it's a really great game of fun and challenge.
I recommend this game!

I had lots of fun doing this one and my grandchildren did too. There are tons of things to find, build, and chase. It's dialogue is funny and goes well with the overall experience. I was so engaged that I played it right through and that took awhile! Not for real young children as the items being searched for are sometimes tiny and/or are behind something. A truly different and enjoyable game! The graphics are great and the challenges are addictive!
I recommend this game!

If you REALLY love a lot of actual hidden object scenes, then you will probably like this. The story line and the way this plays, ties together very well. It's digging through this woman's nightmares so the HOS are quite confusing since they are supposed to be a representation of said nightmares and are mostly a jumble of stuff. Overall, I am recommending this game only because it has oodles of HOS and the story line was not half bad with a few good puzzlers. Oh, just to warn some, there is one HOS where there was a lot of flashing going on that kind of made me dizzy and I know someone suffering from epilepsy might have trouble with that.
I recommend this game!

I don't usually do many match 3 games, but this one is excellent! It is a very puzzling match 3 and you have to use your wits quite a bit. I enjoyed being able to turn the game board around to enable finding another route to winning. There are also power ups you can earn that help you along. Each game/level is done on a different configuration of the board. Like I said, it is a very puzzling game! I love it.
I recommend this game!
