This is a fun game with wonderful art work. I don't think it deserves the raves it has been getting, but it is one of the better ones.
The plot is quite silly and involves a man finding his brother. He gets help from a hamster and an android that turns into a butterfly. I will admit if he had to use that butterfly more than once I would of quit the game.
There is a character named Chester who is as useless as can be.
The four stars for the CE is because the bonus game is much better than usual. Most CEs offer a lame chapter making me wonder why I spent the extra money on it.
All in all a fun game with good visuals.
I recommend this game!

I am trying to decide whether to give this only three stars because of its rather short length. I did like playing it, but it was over in about two hours.
Still, it is a fun and quickly paced game that was easy for the most part. I do recommend the regular edition and to use your free stamps to get it.
The objective is to save all of these people trapped in some sort of danger. Then we are told the city is going to be destroyed but we have to buy that game when it comes out.
I recommend this game!

The game is one that ends for me as there is nothing left to do. The hint tells me to go to the grotto and find an object but all of those objects are locked. This whole game was frustrating for me to try and accomplish something. Never have I needed to use the hint button and even was given the dubious achievement for getting the wrong thing fifty times in a row.
This game has great ratings by everyone else here. I guess they found the objects and were able to finish this game.
I don't recommend this game.

I had a lot of fun with this game, but it was a bit short for being a Collector's Edition. Also, there were no bonus games and it felt a bit rushed at the end.
I do recommend this game, but just the regular edition. There isn't any reason to spend the extra money for a few trinkets like toys for the silly dog.
I recommend this game!

The graphics on this game were rather bad, but it could be because this game is an older one.
The game play is confusing at times as to what to do. The hints are no help at all and I was more frustrated than anything. I finally did figure things out, only to be stumped immediately again. I played this on the advanced level as I could still skip challenges, but they weren't the main problem.
I like adventure games and I wanted to like this one. It just was not fun.
I don't recommend this game.

I was not too enthralled with this game, but it did have some good multi part HOG plays. It was not boring, but I was surprised how little there was to do in each room or scene.
It was different than the others and that is a good thing.
I don't recommend this game.
