The twinkling lights in the marsh look pretty, but they hold a mysterious power. Whatever you do... do not follow them!

This game has everything, including great music! I found the puzzles different and challenging. The HOS's were varied and never boring. Voiceovers were some of the best. Graphics were awesome. I liked everything about this game. Big Fish, you've been offering some great games recently. Please keep it up! Eipix and ERS are still favorites, but Mad Head is quickly catching up!
I recommend this game!

Excellent game, but I can't give it 5 stars because it was all over with much too soon. Even without using the map and with no hints it was still too short. Everything else was excellent. I just like to get my money's worth in length. Still highly recommend.
I recommend this game!

I had a good time with this game except that...
1) It was very easy
2) It was quite short
The developers did come up with a fun game. Just could have been a little more challenging with a little more length. I do recommend it, especially for beginners or intermediates.

Really enjoyed this one! New puzzles that I'd never seen before, plenty of challenges, and good music! Highly recommend this one. HOP's are a little too easy, but it didn't really detract from the game. Can't wait for the next one in this series!
I recommend this game!

I was really loving this game, but then I spent over an hour on a puzzle (I almost never skip them), only to find out I was missing a piece that should have been there. Aaaaargh! I've played all the Sable Mist games now and I think this would have been a favorite if not for the glitch with the missing object. Still giving it 4 stars because the developers came up with some neat things. I especially like the way the HOG's are done in the Sable Mist series. (You have to find an item to use on another item before you can move on.)
I'll be waiting for the next Sable Mist game, hoping I don't have another problem with a disappearing inventory item.
I recommend this game!

I enjoyed the music in this game, as I do with many ERS games. They seem to get it that we like to enjoy good music while solving the mysteries. Having said that, this game could have been better. There were a couple of things that lacked logic, such as where to place certain items. The puzzles were fun but mostly too easy. I was able to solve all of them without a problem. ERS is still a favorite of mine and hopefully will continue to be.
I recommend this game!

Nice, long game. Got stuck a couple of times, so the challenge was good. Puzzles a little too easy, but quite a few of them, so that rates a star. All in all a good game. I really like the Sable Maze series. Will play all of them.
I recommend this game!

Didn't care for this one at all. I can't remember the last time I only gave a 2 star rating, but this one deserved it, in my opinion. Boring, no challenge, not a bit scary, terrible puzzles. Was so glad when it was over. Only gave it 2 stars (instead of 1) because the graphics were decent. Don't recommend this one.
I don't recommend this game.

Not the best, nor the worst, but enjoyable. Eipix has really good voiceovers, and the music was great, too. I just didn't think the game had the length I've come to expect from Eipix. It was all over way too soon. Some good puzzles, but mostly too easy. Would have given this 5 stars with a little more challenge and a little more length. Also, I'm not a big fan of the forensics kit. Doesn't really add a lot to the game for me.
I recommend this game!
