....hence the 3-star review. I do love the art deco theme and the beautiful artwork and the idea of Old Hollywood. But it's short on detail - I want to explore more, open more drawers, inspect items closer, see other angles. Am continually getting lost with this repetitive to-ing and fro-ing. I found the cowboy theme boring - why not make more of it? Steam trains are wonderous! I can't understand what's being asked in those puzzles, they're just too strange. I'm not big on HOPs and think there's too many.
I like the adventure side of these games. Are the developers under too much pressure to churn out these games faster these days? I'd rather buy less and better quality games even if the prices are higher.
The music is terrible but I like the bomb blasts. It's not clear how to play. I realised you had to link the same coloured cells, 5 or more to get a blast... to earn flowers. But it's so repetitious, I had to uninstall.
Oh, I fell in love with this game a few years ago and it was the reason why I joined Big Fish. As several have pointed out it's different and a joy to play because of its positive mood. Based on a love story with beautiful locations by the sea, in the day-time in a realistic setting. I wish this company would make more similar games. My 79 year old mother and I have played all three games in the Love Story series and I've just recently bought Resurrection, New Mexico.
