Graphics and music is good. Storyline is OK. You will find out what it's like to be an archaeologist. The puzzles are not overwhelming but some may be tedious. I didn't like the arcade stuff.
There are 3 easter eggs to find and they are worth finding. Some of the solutions in the guide are not helpful. The game has a tendency to crash.
I recommend this game!

The game has pretty good graphics, Music is cinema quality, boring to me. Puzzles are brain twisters, some are tedious memory type which I always have troubles with. Like one where the character is climbing out of a goblins crib and you have to remember which rocks are solid or you start from scratch. I like the more logical type puzzles. I don't like the arcade parts much either.
All kinds of options and you can skip out of any puzzle you find overwhelming.
I recommend this game!

Good graphics and good animation. The best part of this game series is the music, it fits the game to a T compared to the 2 other game series. It has some real brain twisting puzzles like the other 2 of the series has but you can skip out of them if they are too much and play them in the extras section later.
Excellent configuration interface. There are 3 easter eggs to find, a figure, a morphing object, a puzzle piece hidden randomly throughout the game.
Good story line. The game series is unique as you will be changing to 1 of 3 characters in the game.
I recommend this game!

It's colorful, nice graphics and has very- very challenging levels. It has very basic configs of music, sound, full-screen, but no casual mode and you can't skip dialogs which is annoying on replays which you are bound to do on this game. Music is pepi tropical themed with 1 run of the orchestra type
The bonuses are automatic once uncovered. Some levels are just in time, some you must be spot on in your timing.
. Moai is very different from your usual timed games and takes some strategic planing to get the 3 stars to complete the statues in the achievement section.
There is no help guide except from what you get in the dialog in playing along. But there are all kinds of walkthroughs out there to help you if you get stuck.
May be too challenging for younger kids.
I recommend this game!

They have greatly improved the graphics from the last version and they have a nice mix of progressive music.
Some of the Levels I absolutely could not get the 3 star award, no matter how hard I tried. Like level 25, I tried the game help walkthrough and then an external source. I would always come short on time. And some time a character would just freeze in the game forcing me to do a restart.
Another thing I didn't like about this game is there were no progress bars on the production facilities.
Not sure what's going on but this is an aggravating game when it could be better.
I don't recommend this game.

It's has good graphics. There are 2 types of easter eggs, 2 being fish and 2 being objects.
The instrumental music is boring and somewhat out of place except for 1 score.
The story line is OK and the puzzles are all solvable for the average person if some are kind of funky.
Pretty good game for fun and challenge and not being overwhelmed by puzzles.
I recommend this game!

This would be a nice game except the graphics are fuzzy, basic and yesterdays resolution. It makes it hard to find and do stuff.
The music and story line is OK. Most of the puzzles are quite solvable. It has a map but no indication of actions to do on the map. There are no sparkles to help you on areas of interest. Hints are limited on info. Help is limited.
In order to save map references and to purchase things you have to search for and find gems hidden throughout the game. The are no easter eggs.

This game is a puzzlers nightmare or gold mine depending on your pleasure. I hate puzzles that have random rotate or press puzzles. This game is full of them.
It does not have much for sparkles hints and some items are hard to find. Graphics are mediocre. There is no locator / jump map. There are no easter eggs to find.
Some might find it challenging while others will find it exasperating. I found it exasperating half the time.

Like it's predecessor it's colorful with some improvements in graphics. The scenarios between levels have changed somewhat with new challenges.
The Music is boring instrumental. When a notice happens it's just too large and blocks out important sections of the playing field.
You have 3 playing modes from casual to extreme. There are 2 easter eggs to find which can be done in casual mode for bragging rights. You have plenty of time to get the 3 stars in normal mode.
It's a challenging game even in casual mode.
I recommend this game!

This version is a lot like the former game and has much the same format, just different layout. The levels have of course changed and some are really challenging. Music is peppy but boring to me. I completed all levels in easy timed mode with plenty of time left over. The hardest part is finding the easter eggs, 3 for the bonus game and 1 for the book. Good balanced graphics.
I recommend this game!
