Well I've played my share of bad games and usually I can at least find one good thing to say about it but with this nope. There is nothing good I can say about this game to start with it has no color whatsoever everything is just very gray dull and depressing looking the game is even hard to look at because it's just so sad looking and then you have the constant rain and the background piano music which grated on my nerves like fingernails sliding down a chalk board. The story been there seen that time and time again. The graphics were not good everything was gray and dull very drab and blah looking there was no bright colors in this game at all and the search scenes were just as bad everything was just dull and dated and had a foggy appearance to it. Needless to say this game never should have been a collector's edition it is simply not worthy of it there are very few voice overs and the story is just boring as all get out there is no challenge to anything except trying to find stuff because the graphics are so poor you almost need a magnifying glass to find anything. The game seemed to be thrown together over night with no imagination or care to it at all. I lasted only as long as the demo and believe me I was more than ready for that to end and to be honest deleting the game was the most fun I had with it. Not only is this game not collector edition worthy it is a mediocre standard at best. Sorry developers and Big Fish I appreciate the effort but you dropped the ball on this one the game had potential sadly it was not given. This is a big no buy for me even when the standard version is released or when it becomes the daily deal.
I don't recommend this game.

This game has all the potential in the world to be a great game sadly it doesn't last. The graphics are really nice. It is your basic match and swap match 3. It started out fine there is no timer but sadly this game needs one or at least give the player the option to have a timer because with the honeycomb shape board it quickly can become a chore just to finish a level it just seems to go on and on and the few levels that I did play there is nothing like a hammer or any type of power up that you can use to knock out that last chip and that is where this game quickly died for me and I found myself becoming very irritated with it because it just became very tedious and too much work to even try and complete a level with these types of boards it's best to have the chaining method or again give the player that option to choose the type of board or method of play because the basic swap is very hard with this type of board especially if there are no power ups to help out, then there is the hidden object scenes and the objects are so well hidden and small they are almost impossible to find without constantly hitting the hint button. Needless to say after a couple levels of this mind numbing and tedious game play I quickly gave up and deleted the game it was just simply not worth the time to continue and that is sad because the potential is there but sadly the potential doesn't last and I was really hoping it would get better but again it didn't and it just became so tedious and overwhelming boring. I love a good match 3 but sadly as beautiful as this one is it is not a good match 3 and really needs some revamping. Sorry dev's I love the effort and time you put into the game and as I said the potential is there but you just let it fall short too early on in the game. This is just my opinion on the game however it is worth the demo but for me that's where it ended.
I don't recommend this game.

Wow where do I begin I can't say enough great things about this game this is one that is just awesome in every way. There are two modes of play regular and relaxed so you don't get all flustered by trying to beat the clock. It's like Sally's but your making over the dead so they can be beautiful and RIP. The graphics are really good the music everything about this game is dead on. This is one excellent time management game and I love the twist the dev's have put on this one. The mini games are a hoot you have to pick out accessories, fill the embalming vial, dress them in new clothes, clean the coffins and then at the end of each level you have a whack a zombie game to play. I love everything about this game. The upgrades you can get are really cool and they help out a bunch. You have all kind of zombies from actresses, to the sheriff and watch out for that dude he has a healthy appetite, there are comedians and all sorts of zany zombies. The levels do get challenging but still remain just as fun as the very first one. Alot of time and great imagination went into this game and it really paid off. It's definitely worth the demo and I didn't even make it through the demo before I bought it I just had to have it this game had me at level one. Thank you so much dev's for this one you got it dead on and I hope to see more from you. You did an awesome job with this one and thank you Big Fish for another amazing time management game.
I recommend this game!

I absolutely love this game it is soooooooooo fun and the graphics are gorgeous. You are running a shopping mall with ghost from every walk of life trust me on that. I have laughed at this game so much it is just too cute and has the zaniest character's I've ever seen. The levels are fun and can be challenging, you have to stock your shelves, keep your cart stocked, check out the customers or should I say ghostomers. You have ghost that shoplift so you have to keep your eyes peeled for that then you have characters that come in some leave you nice tips when they leave that is if they are happy of course then you have those like Ronald McDonald who will start juggling and make a mess and you have to clean it up if you don't click on him in time but when he checks out if he's happy he will make everyone else in the store happy, then there is the headless horseman who will drop his pumpkin head and you have to pick that up and give it to him to keep him from running all over the store, there's superman who will restock your shelves when he leaves if he's happy, the pirate girl who will leave you a treasure chest when she leaves, and dracula who will clean your store when he leaves but if his patience runs out he will freeze you or a staff member and you have to click on the person he froze. The upgrades you buy for the store are really nice and they really help. All in all this game is a hoot I love it. It's like supermarket mania only this time there are ghost I love this twist on the game and I hope they will do more like this one it's just way too fun and cute. Thank you developers and Big Fish for this great game that I'm sure I will play over and over again.
I recommend this game!

I loved this game it was so fun and full of humor. You get to play as two characters who are trying to escape from a kidnapper and both start out hating each other but realize they have to work together in order to escape the castle. There are all kinds of little puzzles and quest's you have to do for other people in order to get them to help you. My only complaint is that the game is way too short but still worth it as it is just so cute and fun. The graphics are very nice and crisp everything is easy to see and the hint system is very generous. I do hope there will be another chapter to this one. Awesome game thank you Orchid games and Big Fish for a whole lot of Royal Fun !

Well first let me say I was beginning to wonder if this game was ever going to be released and let me say it was well worth the wait. This game is so fun and it's different and it's fresh and it keeps you laughing with the tongue and cheek humor I think I have laughed the whole time I've been playing. The story is really cute and the graphics are beautiful and the voice overs are very well done honestly I can't find one negative thing to say about this game. I played the demo only long enough to make sure it was going to run well and I was quick to hit the money button and I definitely feel I got my money's worth with this one I don't know when I've had this much fun with a game I have to make myself stop playing. The puzzles are really neat some easy but all are just fun. This is a wonderful game for anyone adult or child you can't go wrong with this one it's absolutely awesome and I highly recommend this one at least try the demo if nothing else. Awesome game ! Thank you dev's and Big Fish for this game.

Granted this isn't the best game out there but it's not the worst. I thought the game was very colorful and it's a nice relaxing game it's not stressful at all you don't feel like you have to run around like a chicken with your head cut off to beat a timer. The tutorial wasn't good but the game isn't so hard that you can't figure out what's going on. The little fairies are really cute and your restoring the land cleaning up the nasty stuff and planting new and pretty flowers and repairing gazebo's, and bridges and getting rid of the gloom. Really cute game that isn't hard or stressful I'm really enjoying it. It's a little bit different and I like that.
I recommend this game!

This is a great game beautiful graphics a great story and just great fun to play. Your setting free the souls of the Orphanage and they are children except for their teacher and they all help you along the way. The game is done by Orneon a great developer that never disappoints all of their games are simply awesome. There are collectibles and achievements you get as you go along. I'm having a blast with this game there is lots to do and several places to go. The hint system is very helpful. Just a well thought out story and gorgeous scenery all the way through. Thank you Orneon and Big Fish for a wonderful hauntingly beautiful game.
I recommend this game!

This game has it all gorgeous in your face graphics, great story, great puzzles and so much more. This is one of the best I've played in a long time and this one is a long game with lots of achievements to earn and other goodies to unlock. This is definitely worth every penny and well worth the title CE. I've had so much fun with this game it's simply awesome in every way. I wish there were more like this one. Elephant games is one developer that gets it they know what and how to deliver a stunning game on every level. It has a wonderful hint system on it so don't worry if you get stuck this one will help you out I was very impressed by the hint system. Overall this game is just excellent in every way and it sorta reminded alot of the first Mystery Trackers The Void for some reason I think it was the in your face clear graphics and the search scenes were lots of fun some are very interactive. This game has it all ! Thank you Elephant Games and Big Fish for one awesome fun ride with this game.
I recommend this game!

Well where should I start. First of all I was really excited to see a time management game but that didn't last long. This game is an utter click fest that leaves you wondering what to do there are no real clear instructions on the game and all you do is sit there and click on items that appear at the top of the screen while 3 or 4 girls run around from rack to rack picking up items. At first I thought okay this is different but that quickly changed when different turned into the same click fest over and over and over and over again. It was just way too repetitive with hardly any change whatsoever. The graphics weren't that good and although I know I was clicking on the right items I would still get wrong item after a few minutes I thought your right "wrong item" and deleted the game. Basically your in a race to get the best fashions so your character can get the attention of a guy she has a crush on go figure. Not very fun at all no imagination went into this game just repetitive clicking. Sorry I really wanted to like this game and I gave it my best shot but after about 6 levels of the same thing over and over again I called it quits. I wouldn't even buy this game as a DD.
I don't recommend this game.
