Same graphics and playing interface are like before, except this time your adversaries are pirates that pop out of bushes and seek ransom in the form of piastries. I found that aggravating as some levels were tough enough without this arcade feature. So I skipped the timed mode. But it's still fun to play in casual mode, which you should play initially to get a feel for the game.
Instead of a backpack you have a store in this version where you buy your bonuses from emeralds you get for a level completion. They do make a difference. On a different page where they had spells they replaced that with a wheel of fortune where you can gamble for various things. You will find out this is how casinos make money.
Some levels are tough even at casual level. There are no easter eggs.

Similar to it's previous version except heroine has 3 companions and there are easter eggs for the awards section. All puzzles are solvable including 2 that are very difficult, just requires patience. I had none so I skip them. Game is quite enjoyable and has a plot twist.

It's comparable to Viking Sisters except it include the 2 original heroes which are their brothers.
Somewhat different form the original series. Some new, good musical repertoires. Graphics are as good as ever. Good challenges even in untimed mode. You can play in untimed mode and get all the awards. There are easter egg owls sprinkled throughout the levels, including the bonus levels.
I skipped out on the timed mode as I am heavily involved in another strategic game and there are 2 more favorite time management games that just came out. But it's fun to play.
I give it 4 stars as the music was not viking enough.
A mysterious plague casts a dark shadow on the people of Persia. The young apothecary Tara must discover the cause of the illness before it's too late!

It's different from other similar adventure games. Almost all the puzzles were solvable by me, some haphazardly, but 1 slider puzzle picture drove me up the proverbial wall and I bailed out in the skip option. Graphics are quite good, music was OK. There are no easter eggs in this game, just the usual entreaties.

Similar to the Viking brothers game with variations. It has one of the sisters as a sorceress that must get magic crystals so she can perform magic like making plants bear fruit. All throughout the game there are powerups for the girls to make them able to beat formidable opponents.
There are puzzle Easter Eggs to find, not too hard to discover, for a puzzle picture.
Nice game for the gals, challenging even in casual mode and fun to play. I didn't even try the timed mode as I wanted to play the new Viking Brothers games that soon followed.

Not a bad game, it has graphics comparable to most top notch games. Music is OK. There where 3 puzzles that drove me up the wall. The had poor clues and one made little sense. Other then that its a different detective type game. I would have gotten the collectors version but I went straight off the new games list with a 2 for 1 regular sale.

It's much like the previous version except you are not confronted with invaders but birds.
I did not like 2 or 3 levels where you have to continuously fight off the birds with no real deterrence, too arcadish. So I did not bother playing it in time mode.
As in the previous level you can't skip dialogs and some dialogs is where you get a tutorial guide. Complex and challenging levels.
No building bonus, just bragging awards.
What different is in the backpack of advantages you get them by using various ingredients you pick up at every level. You can also use these abilities for single use options, I'm not sure how they work as it was not covered in the guide. It also has an abilities section that shows the enhanced abilities you acquire as you advance through the levels.

I enjoyed this series as a laid back diversion for bedtime. I liked the scenery, puzzles and finding stuff. It also exposes you to what a park ranger's life would be like.
This is the last version I will get, they went overboard on renewables. Renewables are not green nor clean.

It's much like the previous version except you are not confronted with ghost adversaries, just invaders. There is a casual mode in this version. However the walkthrough guide has flaws.
In this version, most levels are not that tough although some are just in time. I got 3 stars on all levels in normal timed mode. You just have to think things through.

I hope their next version has better music selections, it's too laid back in this version.

It's colorful, has decent graphics, excellent animation, but music is too laid back and out of theme. The levels are challenging. You can either go through the game in non timed mode or timed. You generally have enough time to complete all missions in basic timed mode but some levels are just in time for me.
There are easter eggs for bragging rights. I got every award except for 2. 1 was tied to an arcade. I did not like the arcade levels. They have 1 memory puzzle.
What I find hilarious is they use windmills in this game for energy. You will not conquer space with renewables alone, it will primarily take some form of nuclear or other energy dense form.
