I played this today because I was bored. These types of griddlers as they call them are annoying and boring. I dislike that they cross off numbers when I have not finished with a column or row letting me know which number in the middle has been found. Makes it to easy. Shopping for hints extra with the coin is not necessary. Can't really tell what the picture is suppose to be and with these that is the purpose. To make a picture. These use to be called Pictograms. Would be nice to know what I was suppose to have made. Wouldn't give you a dime for this game. If you want good pictograms or griddlers or whatever you call them. The best ones out there are the Gizmo games. They give you a real challenge. All the Griddler name games are just boring.
I don't recommend this game.

Grim Tales: Threads of Destiny Collector's Edition
Can you free Jackie’s parents from their deadly fates?
As soon as I read the sign City 40 km. and then I had to use a bike sorry guys you lost me big time. I of course had to keep playing to see how much more ridiculous the game could get. I was not disappointed. In two scenes I have gone 40 km on my bike. You go back and forth from city to car to campsite (on this bike no less). Then I have to carve a fancy owl figurine out a hunk of iron with an awl. Really guys you have got to be kidding. Then I was to find 4 tires for the car. But I only fixed two. Sorry guys I don't know who comes up with these ideas but there is no logic to any of it. These supposed CE's are not worth the money. These Grim Tales are just getting more and more silly. I think it is time they are put to bed. Forever!!!
This might have been an OK game if it was not so painfully slow. Which of course makes the game boring in my opinion. There is a lot of much better match 3's out there. So this will not be a buy for me.
I don't recommend this game.

Mystery of Neuschwanstein
Accompany Sarah and Professor Adler through the stunning rooms, halls and cellars of the historical castle of Neuschwanstein!
I must say I spent more time in the reading dialogue, emails, notes etc than playing any game. If I wished to read a book I would buy one or go to the library. I am tired of all the reading in these games when the games are so short to begin with. This game was old. Or at least old style. Puzzles and HO's. The graphics are very grainy and some objects were very hard to find. Can't say it is a game I would purchase ever.
Was intrigued by the demo as it is a strategy game but also has small hidden items you must find in order to fulfill your quest. Great to have a map. I purchased this with a free game coupon and am glad I did. Length is very good. I started playing and got so caught up in it a few hours had flown by before I knew it. I have finished it (5-6 hours) and enjoyed every minute of it.
I recommend this game!

PuppetShow: The Price of Immortality Collector's Edition
Your friend vanishes after investigating the mysterious Theater of Emotions
This is not PuppetShow material at all as far as I am concerned. Who comes up with this stuff. Torture and killing really. Kill the humans. What a load of bunk. This game is definitely not worth my time or money. No thanks BFG.
Wow! I was excited when I saw a new 1000 doors game. I own the other 1000 doors games and this one is just not in the same caliber. The play was so slow I think the virus did infect my computer. Only one character in this game looked remotely like the old characters. The house was not the same. Doing the magic hand thing got a little tiring and boring after a while. It was painful to play this game. Won't be a purchase for me even with a free game coupon. Disappointed.
I was most confused. Luisa married John Gray didn't she. Then how come when I picked up the engagement ring it said James gave it to Luisa. Also letter from asylum about Thomas's escape was addressed to Mr. and Mrs. James Gray. What is with that. Not impressed with this storyline. I purchased the first two of this series and gave up as it just became darker and stranger. Not interested in this one. Game play was fine though.
I love playing these. In my old puzzle books they were called Pictograms. I am dating myself. They are a challenge. These are very much so. They even have 30 X 30 squares which I have never played in these games. There is 6 categories with 20 nonograms in each one. Along with a couple of puzzles in each category. If you like this type of game then both the Gizmos games are worth the time and money. Have fun! I am.

I actually enjoyed the HO's part of the game the rest of the game even on the supposed hard setting was just a lot of hand holding from your task notification to the annoying cat who was your helper. This game is so easy it is definitely for kids. Why you would make a game with such a depressing storyline for young kids is beyond me. We as adults must remember that not all the games BFG makes are for us. The puzzles on hard were good. I feel that the kids might enjoy this game. So you youngsters out there try it out and see.
