I own two prior 'Rite of Passage' games (Rite of Passage: Hide and Seek, and Rite of Passage: The Perfect Show). With these two games, I purchased them soon after the demo. I am an active game player with over 150 games, and adding these two games, I knew would be an asset. With Rite of Passage: Heart of the Storm, it was nothing more than a drizzle. The graphics were crisp and clear, and the music was OK. The opening scene was probably the best part of the demo, IMHO. There were some scenes that might get your heart rate up a little, such as when you have to quickly put out a fire, so the game is not entirely dull, IMHO. I also thought the professor's facial expressions rather odd, and not quite believable. I did enjoy the HOS, as they offered up a mixed bag. All in all, as everyone recommends in their reviews, try the demo first before you buy. Buyer beware!!
I have been trying to find the 'right' match game, but haven't quite found it yet, and this definitely wasn't it. The demo doesn't even begin to give you enough time to even read the tutorial. It took me all of 15 minutes just to finish LEVEL 1, and I hate to even admit that. Definitely NOT a match 3 game for a beginner.
