Seems 4 Friends ran out of imagination somewhere half way through the game. What started great, ended up repetitive and dull. Even the bonus chapter was disjointed and short. Love this series and cannot wait until the next game is released. I do like the previous games in the series much better though. As usual, if you miss a collectible, you cannot go back and get it. HOP were good and the mini games were fun. Just lacking luster and direction.

I have been playing my older games lately and played the entire Living Legends series. This is a good game, but my least favorite out of them all and I'm not quite sure why. It seems to drag on and on and the story gets lost, something the other games do not. I'm not saying it's not good, just my least favoriate. Lots of collectibles and morphs. A very short bonus chapter with no real ending. Give it a try if you haven't played it.

I love all the games in the Living Legends series, but this one is definitely my favorite. Story is unique. 4 Friends games does games right. Nice lengthy game with a great bonus chapter. Collectibles and morphs. Nothing too hard or too easy. It's just a combination of everything I like in a game. I've been playing my old games as nothing new has come out lately. So glad I chose to replay this series. If you haven't played it, give it a try.

In my opinion, all of the Living Legends games are great and this was no exception. The story was well done with a good amount of HOS and puzzles. It kept me interested the entire game, plus the lengthy bonus chapter. I played this back in the day and decided to replay some old games. It did not disappoint. I recommend this game and really any game by this developer. It's a winner and will keep you interested until the end.

I love time management games and try out each one that is released. Thank goodness I played the demo for this. I felt like this was senseless chaos with no real point. Granted, most time management games don't really have a story or a point for that matter, but this was extreme. Just basically running to grab things, waiting for things to fill up. I didn't know what I was doing most of the time. I didn't like the first 2 so maybe this series just isn't for me. Oh, I miss the days of Island Tribe and the original Roads of Rome/ This is a big pass for me.
I don't recommend this game.

I played this back when, and I really enjoyed it so today I played it again. I love this game. I think this was the last phantasmat that had that aura of the first one which is a huge winner. There is no map and no custom settings, just good gaming. I had to pull up the walk through a few times to get my bearings. If you're new to Big Fish or just browsing your old games, give this one a whirl. Great story . It keeps your attention the whole game without all the bells and whistles.

I could not get this game to hold my attention no matter what. I read the great reviews and thought this must be great. I played for about 2 hours or so and just had to stop. I have never used the hint button so many times in a game. Everything was so oddly done, I had no clue what they wanted me to find. I'm rating this one star but giving it an extra for effort. I cann't recommend at all.

This was a short game compared to the first 2 in this series. The ending was abrupt and I thought I'd see more in the bonus chapter. However, somewhere I was missing a nail and a plank and couldn't finish the bonus chapter. Pretty annoying. Lots of puzzles in this game. A bit too many for my personal liking. The story line was good but could have been developed so much better. I'd say this is my least favorite out of the 3 in this series. HOS were fun. Characters were kind of flat. I'm on the fence with this one. I'm not playing from the beginning to try to see if the bonus chapter works.

Based on completed game.
There are 2 types of games I never play only because I have no interest... fantasy and sci-fi. When I saw this game leaning toward the sci fi, I groaned However, I kept on playing and I must say I was pleasantly surprised. I really liked the first installment of this series, thus I bought this one. Some parts did drag on, but for the most part I really enjoyed this. The bonus chapter was short. HOS were intuitive and fun. I can't say much about the puzzles since I am not a fan of puzzles. This one gets a solid 4 from me. Lots of talking and hand holding that could have been done without. Also, they need a proofreader. I realized English is not their first language, but c'mon now LOL. Some of the grammar was hysterical. I recommend this game. Also would be nice if people would fill out their favorite games. It's always nice to have new ideas!!!

I was so happy to see a potential new series released. This is a classic whodunit with lots of twists and turns. Not sure if I've ever played a game by this developer, but with all the games I've played, I must have. Graphics are clear and on spot. The story is fun and believable. Lots to do and interesting characters. I don't recall seeing achievements. There are 2 collectibles in each scene but I didn't see a place where they go either under extras. Bonus chapter was kind of short and disjointed. I'll definitely be playing the next games in the series.
