I really enjoyed this game. The graphics are nice and the game moves along. You have to find the eggs before the dragon awakens. There are match 3 games and other mini games to play. I recommend this game.

I enjoyed this visit to Paris! This is typical Big City game with a map and various locations to visit. There is an HO game at each location and mini games. You learn some fun facts about each location. The HOS were well done and some were very challenging. I like the Big City games because they are a nice change of pace from some of the more involved HO games. I recommend this game.

I usually like the Big City games, they are a nice change of pace from some of the more involved HO games. Unfortunately, this was not my favorite Big City game. It seemed to be more repetitive and less entertaining. It is set up like all the other Big City games in that you have a map and go to different locations. Each location has an HO and mini game. You learn some fun facts about each location. The mini games were fun, but the locations got old fast. Plus some of the objects you had to find were mis-named, which was frustrating. I will probably not play this game again.
I don't recommend this game.

I enjoyed this game. The graphics are nicely done, the match 3 games are challenging and you get to build things. The music was annoying, so I muted it. I liked this game much better then the first Cradle of Rome.
I recommend this game!

I enjoyed some of the other "Cradle of" games, so thought I would try this one. It was not very much fun and not as well put together as others in the series. The graphics are so-so, game play was not very much fun and I muted the sound. I would not recommend this game.
I don't recommend this game.

This game was so much fun. You help the wizard reassemble the Spellarium. The match 3 games are hard, but you do have power-ups to use. The mini games are fun. The graphics are very nice. The game moves along nicely and has a satisfying ending.
I recommend this game!

I enjoyed this game. It seems the Puppet Show series may be back on track. The ending was a bit abrupt. The graphics were very nice, the music was not annoying, the voice-overs were well done.
I would definitely recommend this game.

This is a fun Christmas game. You play as Dorothy and you go back to Oz to help them celebrate Christmas. Game play is fairly straightforward. There is not much "back and forth" which is a nice change of pace from some games. You encounter several residents of Oz and of course the Tin Man, Scarecrow and Cowardly Lion.
The HOS are creative and the mini games are fun. The music is not annoying, the voice-overs are well done and the sound effects are good. There are collectibles, a map and a journal. Toto also has a role to play. The game is a nice length and the bonus chapter is quite interesting.
This is a game I will play again.
I recommend this game!

This game was fun to play, especially in the beginning. There's been an explosion at the mine. You wake up shackled to the floor of a cabin and have no memory of how you got there. You interact with several characters and get mixed messages. The game beings strong, but loses steam by the end. The ending is a bit surprising, but was almost anticlimactic.
The HO scenes where fine, but could have used a bit more complexity. The graphics are nice. The cut scenes are fine until you get to the end. Near the end, one of the cut scenes has a huge information dump which wore me out before it was over. I wish the developers had found another way to provide the bulk of that information. The mini games were fun, but not overly difficult (which was fine with me). I muted the music, so can't speak to that. I know this is an older game and that probably accounts for some of the things I didn't like.
There is a journal, which does contain some good information. There isn't a map, but you don't need one. This game is very linear. The hint button recharges quickly, but you won't really need it.
If you are willing to endure something of a letdown at the end, I recommend this game.
I recommend this game!

I really enjoy the Big City games and this was no exception. The family is visiting Shanghai and there are some very interesting locations. The HO scenes were excellent and the mini games were fun. The postcards with information about each location were well done. Each HO scene has coins and a bonus object to collect.
I highly recommend this game.
