This game had every thing I look for in a Hidden Object Game! I loved the voice overs, the cut scenes, the collectable and Bonus room with little critters you collect and transform to life from stone..
I LOVED the music and so glad you can download it to your hard drive...I loved especially the HOS!! I totally love putting objects back into a scene. You do play each scene twice BUT after playing it once by finding items, the next time you play the same scene you place items back into the scene, which breaks up any monotony. I would like to see more HOS like that...placing items into a scene.
I enjoyed the story line and the Bonus game! It took me about an hour to complete the Bonus round. The main game took about 5-6 hours straight through.
Great game and worth the CE!
I recommend this game!

I liked the game, though other Mystery Tales have captured me more. I loved the scenes. I prefer games like this where you play in scenes that are real life looking. Like the streets, the houses, the hotel ect.. I am not one for castles and weird worlds in the sky and the like.
So I appreciated the realism.
The only beef I had with this game was how easy it was. There is very little challenge. The mini games were super easy and you could beat them in less than a minute usually. I did like the HOS, those were unique and had a few Id never seen before. Like collecting Alphabet blocks and rearranging the letters to spell out objects you would find in the HOS.
I do recommend this game, but be aware it is easy. Its also about a 4 hour game straight through.
I recommend this game!

I was surprised at how fast I beat this. It took no longer than 2 hours to beat, which is very short.
I enjoyed the music, which was so beautiful. I loved the artwork, the scenes were breath taking in places. The HOS were nice but you had to re-play them, which I do not like.
I am hoping in the future that if any more of the Maestro games are developed that NEW sounds and music will be incorporated. Its the same thing in every game, its time for a change. The characters stared at you as they talked, their mouths did not move, so its time to update that. The mini games were very easy. The game was not challenging, but it was a nice way to spend the afternoon.
I recommend this game!

This game has the most beautiful scenes. Ohhhh to teleport into the screen.
I look forward to the rest of this game. It has achievements that are worth collecting. I love the morphs and especially collecting the paper dolls. The bonus section of this CE, is well worth owning the game. Lots of backgrounds, screensavers and such.
Great voice-overs, cut scenes. story line, mini games, HOS(especially great and unique). HOS games just keep getting better and better!
A great edition into the LIVING LEGENDS series! Excellent job guys!
I recommend this game!

I love when these come out, however this one didn't have near what I look for in a standard solitaire. I want to ask the developers "8Floor", what happened after they created the Detective Solitaire series. Those were fantastic .
They had crisp graphic backgrounds and then they started making the solitaire's where you collect achievements(which I really liked).
This solitaire has plain old color backgrounds with just a drawn pic of a couple. No achievements at all. I do like that they they at least allowed us to change the way the cards look. I enjoy changing them up in the options menu.
Come on 8FLOOR, we want more with these solitaire games. Better backgrounds, new and improved sound effects and for goodness sakes give us achievements. That makes the game more worth while with lots of replay value.
I recommend this game!

This game lasted me 3 days and I am so glad! I love a good long CE. The Bonus Game was a bit short, I beat it in about 30 minutes.
Not too much to speak of on this CE, a few wallpapers and music, concept art all of which you can save to your computer. With the Bonus game being so short, I would not recommend the CE on this, just the standard. There are many games that have way more in the CE and are worth you paying for them.
This game had beautiful scenes, the art was just lovely. I feel it had a few bugs. For instance, the voice overs wouldn't always work or the hint system would tell you something other than what you were looking forward to doing at the time.
I do like the map as you can teleport to where your needed to complete the next challenge.
I loved this game. Grim Tales are not so grim, they are great!
I recommend this game!

I love the Grim Tales developers. Each scene in every game they create in this series is just beautiful. You'll get lost in them. Just wonderful.
I would not recommend the Collectors edition but if only to play the Bonus Game. There are no bells and whistles with the CE on this and in retrospect I would have just bought the standard.
The Bonus Game took me about 15 minutes. That is not long enough at all. The main game was a good 5 hours.
I loved the music, the game play, mini games and HOS. The scenes are what sell this game however. Crisp, life-like. I enjoyed the story line.
I look forward to another in the Grim Tales series.
I recommend this game!

If your gonna buy this game, I would suggest going with the Collectors Edition. This is what I like to see in a CE. Loaded with extras. Morphs, Achievements- where you can view them as objects not just a book where you collected 3 items in 8 seconds, I like it to be an object in a room like on a shelf with all of the achievements you have collected. That may not make sense but if you view the achievements in this game that is what I mean.
I love that there are lots of wallpapers, though I do miss seeing the screensavers, but Ill give them lee-way because so much went into the extras as it is.
As for the game itself. I am not a water world gamer. Nor do I like games involving villages in the sky, air type games. I liked the beginning of this game starting out in the hospital.
I wish there were more games where we stay on the ground in the real world, searching through places that actually exist.. If you love water-world gaming then this is the one for you!
I recommend this game!

I wish there were more games like this one, where its like real life. Not kings and Princess and fake stuff that cant happen, not saying the subject matter in this could. Its just that I loved all of the people, the scenes.
The apartment in this game was awesome. Scenes like the hospital, the city street. I wish there was more realism like this had. Like the Veronica Weaver game... There are so many places in the world a game could be made on, history that could be played through.
A lot of times a games feels lonely, I like when there are other characters in the game standing by or in the scene even if they are a ghost.
This game was the epitome of what I love about HOS. Great game! The artistry was fantastic!
I recommend this game!

I was very surprised at how long this game was. I really enjoyed it a lot. I loved finding the stones that you put into a box and when you have enough each time you unlock a scroll with cool info.
I loved the part also where you would dress yourself up to deceive whomever you needed to in order to advance to the next scene or task. A lot of fun.
Beautiful scenes and fun gameplay, though the hint system is outdated and is annoying when it wont show you exactly where to go. I did have to use a walk through towards the end.
I recommend this game!
