I enjoyed this game a lot, so much so i have finished it already and that is including the bonus section.
Now the only reason i rated the game 4 out of five stars was because of how to use the spirit the first time i came across it, at first i clicked on the spirit a few times to make it work and nothing happened so i thought i may have had a level fault, so started the level again thinking it may fix it and tried the same thing again and it still didn't work when i clicked on the spirit (also as another has mentioned i did check the hint section and nothing was there about how to use a spirit) as i was just about to quit the game i then thought why not click on a production building to see if that would make the spirit work and sure enough it did, now this is for the dev's if you are going to bring in something new to a game make sure you explain it in the hints section seeing we are paying extra for it in the collectors edition. So because of this issue it took what could have been a 5 star game down to a 4 star, i hate having to repeat levels because the dev's don't explain how something you need to do on your to do list in a game to finish of a level is not explained properly when you come across it the first time.
So after sorting out the spirit issue the rest of the game was fine.
I recommend this game!

Now within the last couple of years with HO games the demo section has been as far as i get as they all play the same, this one today as mentioned by others just has that little extra because of the adventure part of the story added to it, so for the first time in what seems like a long time i decided to buy this one.
Now someone mentioned about the touch screen part of the game, i also have an old computer that doesn't have touch screen, but if you have been playing other games lately with touch screen some will allow you to use your right mouse button instead and this is the same, problem is in the demo they don't tell you this, so if you have quit for that reason or just about to give this game a go then that will fix your touch screen issue.
So apart from that minor thing i have no other issues about the game.
I recommend this game!

Started playing this around 8 weeks ago & as people mention you have to learn it yourself, first thing you mainly noticed is that you need energy to play the hidden object part of the game or you need a set amount of items to play the mini games, also latter on the game asks you to buy a plane to find out quickly that fuel is hard to win so they expect you to buy the fuel with gold, so always pushing you to buy, what makes it even worse is you start getting quests lined up that only asks for the plane so normal quests stop coming in, so for me now i've stopped doing the quests and just using the energy i get each day to play the parts i can, shame really as it started so well but the longer you stay to play this the more you start to hate it, now also for those that may wonder what would happen if i do decide to spend real money well i did and it doesn't last long, & not only that it starts asking for you to spend more, so if i knew what i know now about the game would i play it again i would say no & give it a big miss, but seeing i've spent money i'll stay around until i think i've got my moneys worth then quit.
I don't recommend this game.
