You get your money's worth with this game. Its so interesting, changing course at least a couple of times with surprise events that lead you further into the story that you want to keep playing. I skipped one of the puzzles because I was stumped. Each one was challenging. This is one I definitely will enjoy playing again.

This game could be very simple but they chose to have elaborate and confusing game lists when a pull down menu would have sufficed. There is no auto finish when you've completed a game. Each card has to be moved or double clicked. The music is short so starts over quickly which makes you scream and turn it off quickly. A nice simple playlist would be better. Another annoying function is a readout of what you are doing at the top of the screen that plays constantly (card available, card accepted etc) At least you can turn off the tutorial. Maybe its me but I found the option icons confusing as well. My opinion, don't waist your time, there are better games out there.
I don't recommend this game.

I usually choose Elephant games because I know I won't be disappointed. They always produce an enjoyable experience but, this one is my favorite so far. They have shown they have amazing imagination. The game is challenging but not frustrating. I've played it once, including the bonus content but I didn't do as well as I would have liked so I'm definitely going back again to try getting what I missed the first time. Buy this game, you will love it on any level. I played it on custom setting as I like to have the skip option and don't want to wait if I need help and the map. So fun.
I recommend this game!

If you aren't fast with the mouse, don't bother. I liked Clutter but this game demands a faster play and there's no skipping. If you can't do the level, you are done. So, I gave up. I wish I'd tried it before buying.
I don't recommend this game.

I loved this game so much it deserved a second play. Your prospective in this beautiful fantasy world is from the forest floor as a tiny human in a town made out of the discards of the real world. Beautifully crafted game, with great colors. Your task is to save your mother and the town from the rats' evil plot. Your weapon of choice is magic. The competitions you engage in and the hidden object scenes are probably not for old pros to gaming, but for someone like me who plays a lot but doesn't like the frustration of overly complicated puzzles, it's perfect. I hope this company make more of these.
I recommend this game!

I just finished playing this game and I found it interesting enough to keep going with only a few day's pause. I usually switch between games playing multiple ones at a time. This one was interesting enough that I stuck with it more than some. They change up the HO's and the story was really good. I would recommend this for mid to lower level players. I don't think someone who likes a hard game would enjoy this. So it was just right for me. I wish they would have done more with the griffin. You spend a lot of time collecting the ingredients for a potion to give the thing life and then all you see is our heroin riding it from above.
I recommend this game!

You go in to inspect the tower for demolition but it is a trap. As you try to find your way out, you must deal with a vicious computer program and mind altering gas. The graphics are great, the HO's are never the same and the puzzles were a challenge. But only one frustrated me to the point of skipping. It was a different scenario from the others I've played and the story line was new. Great game, I recommend it.

This is another great EPIX game. They have turned out so many good ones I always expect a good adventure when new one comes out and worth playing over. Beautiful graphics. Story line is not confusing. I count this as moderate skill level because I didn't have much trouble with the clues. This kept the game going and my interest peeked. It was hard to put away once I started it. Conversations are not overly wordy with just the right amount of flavor to give you the points and move on.
I recommend this game!

I enjoyed the story line and the graphics were good. I liked the game play for the most part. Sometimes it became a bit tedious going back and forth within the same scenes but not bad. A couple of the games completely stumped me and I passed on two of them. I just wasn't intrigued enough to continue as it seemed to only have one solution that needed to be tried and tried until I hit on the right one. I kept forgetting to look for the morphing objects but this was my fault. I was very glad they allowed me to revisit the scenes at the end to finish up. It was a lot of fun looking through the extras. Good game overall. I enjoyed it.
I recommend this game!

I'm having a great time playing this game. The hidden object scenes are a challenge. I seldom have trouble but I've had to resort of hints three times now to finish them. Some may find the dialog a bit lengthy but I'm in no hurry to finish so enjoy every aspect of the show. I'm playing on the difficult setting this time and as there are a multitude of objects to collect, I'm finding it a real challenge. I like the fact that you can place objects you find before you have every one. This keeps the inventory manageable. This is one I will play over and over.
