When I downloaded the demo and started to play the game would not work. Then I tried again and lost the full screen mode and couldn't seem to find how to enlarge the screen. Loaded it again but no change. So played with small screen. Play was ok. Graphics typical for this type of game. Story line showed promise. But by the tiime I got this game working I did not have much play time left as each time I loaded it it took alot of time with the beginning story and you could not skip. Can't believe I took the time to do this but I really wanted to give this game a chance. Now with only about 30 min of actually play I can't really make an honest assessment.

I purchased this game a while ago and now just got to play it.
I bought it because of the positive reviews. Well I just finished it and enjoyed it immensely. Good Interactive HOG's. You need items from your inventory to complete them. Some of your inventory items had some unusual uses but all in all a good game. Puzzles were challenging, some were easy. Nice mix. This was a nice long game too. Just when I thought I was at the end, lo and behold a whole new level to explore. Well worth a game credit. Glad I bought this one.
I recommend this game!

I love these timed Strategy games. I own lots of them. This one is very challenging as you have to time everything perfectly otherwise no gold star. Can be frustrating for those who don't want to be timed. This would not be the game for you. This game definitely takes planning. You have just enough resources to build what you need to create new resources to finish the level. And you have to plan it just right. In the demo I had to do some levels three times in order to do it just right. And time does go by very fast. So the key to this game is STRATEGY. Not sure if I want that much stress right now. Definitely not a relaxing game.
Liked it though. Will recommend it to those who really love this type of game.
I recommend this game!

I am not going to give details of the story as you can read that in the description of the game as you down load the demo. Definitely download the demo to try this game. It is one of those you will definitely like or hate. And the hour demo will let you know that for sure. There is a Robot companion who gives you hints during HOG scenes and bits of clues as you walk around and click on things. In this game you will be walking back and forth alot. Sparkles for HOG scenes. Otherwise you must look carefully in each scene for objects that are sort of hidden or lying around to be picked up and will be useful during the game. This game could be quite challenging especially if you miss an item. The graphics are okay and quite colourful. HOG's are not too challenging but good. Not interactive. Just finding what you need to help you continue in the game. I think this game is worth a game credit.
I recommend this game!

Well even after reading all the reviews I had to of course try it out. I always try the demos first. This was one demo I wish I had not bothered with at all. I like HO games but this was boring and the cardboard cut out kept popping in with tidbits about objects you find. No thanks. I did the "First Timed Stage" and that was enough for me. (5 Min. ) I removed the demo. Sorry I would not play this game even if it was gifted to me.
I don't recommend this game.

All I can say after 10 mins of trial is that if I want to read a book I will get it from the Library. There really is not much of a game here.
I don't recommend this game.

As far as match 3 games go this one is awesome. It has everything. Challenge, great graphics, and extra things to do.
You even have a purpose for all those matches so it is not just the same old same old. Love this game. Has great length to it and is worth every penny.

This is definitely not a HOG game. It is a puzzle game which includes some HOG's. I disliked the way you navigated in the game which really was not navigating at all. You had to press a compass to show you arrows on which way you can go. To get anywhere you had to solve puzzles. That is okay. The fact that you cannot skip any puzzles unless you have so many hint points was annoying. You had to do more puzzles (bonus ones) in order to get hint points. And in order to move on in the game you had to finish the puzzle. So if you didn't have enough hint points to skip you had to do bonus puzzles. By the time i finished all these puzzles I forgot what the purpose of the game was. There of course was way to much narration for me. But at least it let you SKIP that. The one hidden object scene I did do for some keys. The objects were so small I actually had to use a magnifying glass to find them. Sorry BFG but this game was just annoying. The puzzles could have been good if the game was presented in a different way.
I don't recommend this game.

I love Match 3 games and have played quite a few but this one was just plain boring. Collecting building goods. But you have no idea how many of each are needed to finish a level. At the end of the level it tells you how many short you are and you have to continue playing until to get what you need. No actual construction is shown. After 15 minutes of boredom I deleted the game. Sorry BFG but not anything I am interested in.
I don't recommend this game.

I personally do not buy the CE versions as I find they are over priced for what "extra" you really get and are not worth the money. After reading a few reviews that said it only took them 2 hrs to play then it is definitely not worth CE money. Anyway I played the demo and what I played was just okay. What I can't understand is the very long loading time between scenes. (Why?) At first I thought it was a glitch and the game had hung up but nope just loading time. I found that during HO scenes the sound would fade in and out. I did like the fact that the HO scenes produced items needed to do other things in the game. The HO scenes were not to difficult, a little dark so had to really look for a few items but that is the purpose of HO's isn't it. And a few unexpected scenes that had my heart jumping. Haha. The storyline was very interesting and that in itself was the only reason I finished the demo. I will definitely not purchase the CE version of this one. Maybe as a daily sale would I buy it. With this one I can't really say whether to recommend it or not. Each to their own I guess.
