HOGs are my favorites, but this game falls into another category. 1st, the puzzles provided very little direction - what am I supposed to do - no hints, once you enter, also difficult to get out of the puzzle. 2nd, there's several different mazes - not really my favorite thing to do. And there were parts of the game where 'fast action' was called for (ie: you're being shot at, while you have to figure something out)... in my opinion, not a very relaxing game - which is why I play HOGs.
Finally - and biggest complain of all - trying to find the items you can interact with is INCREDIBLY too difficult. For example, I need to pick up the torch, but I can't pick it up unless I touch the EXACT PIXEL required, the head won't work, the handle won't work - I have to go to like the bass of the torch, just to get it to pick up... very, very easy to miss items this way. And sometimes you had to look at it before it would let you pick it up anyway. Very cumbersome, and found it more frustrating than fun... which is sad, because it had great potential.
There are many HOGs I would recommend made by Big Fish (most of them)... but this one, I would not! Quite cheesy acting as well - nothing was great about this game. :(
I don't recommend this game.
