One of the best games I've played this year. Why?.....This is the last installment of this story, and it picks up where the other left off. It was fluid in the story telling, and just magical! It is not often when you get a great beginning, middle, and end to these HO games. This one hits the mark! Play it, Buy it! you won't regret it!
I recommend this game!

The beginning of this game was sooo...good.The HO scenes were different, the characters you meet were great, the music was perfect for each mirror you go thru, but, then it seemed to get hurried, what started as a so much potential, just finished too quickly. I really wanted to love this game, but I can't give it more than 3.5 stars. I was hoping that what happens at the beginning of the story continued to the end, but didn't.
I don't recommend this game.

This game started out slow for me. As the game continues the story gets better. Its all about a terrible mask, whoever has it on, does awful things. The bonus chapter, has the new wife going back to try and finally get rid of that darn mask! As usual, the graphics are great and puzzles aren't too hard. Good game overall.
I recommend this game!

This review is based on the "One hour sample". This father has been missing for years and you find out that he has been in this dark other world, to save your daughter, you need his tears, so you go into this dark world and the usual HO's and puzzles help you get what you need to save your daughter. For me it was just plan weird! Not my kind of game. The visuals are outstanding, but the storyline was not for me.
I don't recommend this game.

This is NOT your typical HO game. You have to find objects yes, but, check out how you have to find some of those objects in a different way----very fun! A princess has to find her stolen magical animals, they create things for her, to help her thru her journey. Visuals are great! The music sets the atmosphere,and, the EXTRA game is fun too. Check it out! Is it worth the money? Yes!
I recommend this game!

Yes another detective story, many women have gone missing, and you have to find out why. Its been done before, but this was pretty good. There is inneraction with the characters, your not going back and forth to find items alot, It takes place in the 1700's, maybe early 1800's. Characters do help you thru the investigation, Some of the HO scenes were hard to click and receive an item, but overall not a bad little detective story.
I recommend this game!

So your in the Alps, and you get trapped from an avalanche. You make your way to a ski resort town and meet 4 people, who vanish after they talk to you. Whats going on?! ERS has done it again. Great story, great graphics, not so many HO's, and fun puzzles. The EXTRA game pulls it all together, Oh, and the little critter in the beginning is cute. Don't freeze!
I recommend this game!

The only thing I like about this game was the graphics and the voice overs.The HO's were frustrating, I can't stand being frustrated when playing a game. Just not for me.
I don't recommend this game.

I really liked the storyline....being in a coma and taking a journey thru the past to find answers to the guilt you have. A "stranger" helps guide you thru this journey. Nice ending, "Who is the stranger"?For me, the storyline was worth the purchase.
I recommend this game!

This review is for an hour of play. The storyline has been done before, but when you have GRIMM attached,it seemed like it was going to be very interesting. But alas, it was just ok. The HO's were somewhat hard to find and you don't have to go back and forth too much. Is it worth $13.99? No, maybe $6.99. I really wanted more, I could walk away from this game and that was the main problem. I want games that I just can't stop playing, this wasn't it!
I don't recommend this game.
