The scene at the beginning makes you travel back to the black and white movies ... WOW, is wonderful :
Helena is looking for her mother, the actress Rita Ray(Hayworth?!?), on the Vernon's island.
Vernon is a film director and owner of the movie studio island.

Good amount of HOS, without much difficulty, but very pleasant.
Many outstanding and varied locations - always parts of a movie studio, very neat.
Fun mini games, some new, some well-known.
Get ready to walk far, by the entire island, behind Vernon and Rita! But...it has a map and "special sneakers" that helps to jump from one scene to another - very useful!
The game provides a great entertaining ! Especially for movie lovers !!!
Definitely goes to my collection !!

I was hesitant to try this one because it seemed to be predictable and previously done. I was wrong. If you are a fan of the board game Clue, this one's for you. There were just the right amount of HOG's and interesting puzzles. At first it seems like the amount of travelling from one area to the next will get annoying, but you are able to gain the power to jump scenes fairly soon after starting. ...Show more

(That's a HUGE plus in my book!) This is not the game to play if you don't like referring back to your journal. As for audio/visual quality, it's a very pleasant enviornment from start to finish.

Alot of thought has gone into this game, and if this is just from a 1 hour demo, I WANT IT, NOW! Show less

I gave this game 5 stars because I had a super time playing it. My one major complaint was that the game was too short and I actually finished in just over two hours. I spent a club reward and it was well worth it. It is by no means a game to be compared to any of the advance CEs that we play, but I have to give gold stars to the developers for the many wonderful features that this game does have, that many of the games dont bother with. A really sweet IHOG/adventure game that offers you 2-3 hours of quirkiness and fun. I will start of by saying that the voice-overs was fantastic, great acting along with very good sound effects. Being a film buff, I loved the Film Noire genre integrated into the story. Graphics were crisp and clear and there is a setting to brighten up your screen as an option. I loved the story; daughter saving her mother from a diabolical director gone mad. 2 Game modes to play and you have the option of changing them at any time during the game. A journal along with a Map, and a above average hint system. Lots of HOS, most items easy to find. puzzles to solve and a variation of mini-games that were different from what we usually have, although I wished that the directions were clearer. I have to admit that I totally got stumped on one of them and just skipped it. There was an interactive map that you could jump from one place to another (ıt also indicated where you could go to complete a task or play a HOS). This wasn't a superior game compared to the CEs that we get, but it was definitely a jewel amongst the many dull SEs that we have been seeing for a while. I totally enjoyed it and am very happy to recommend it to others. Show less

This a very good SE game, loved the art deco and classic movies theme. Hidden object scenes pretty good, nice creepy overtone to the plot. minigames only moderately challenging. appreciated the map so you could jump from scene to scene. turned off the voices, found them annoying. All in all a game worth playing if you are a hidden object fan.

This game will satisfy both adventure and hidden object buffs. The story line is so compeling you can't wait to see what the directer will do next. Each location is very detailed and wonderfully done. The only negitive I could find is that the programmers could have used each scene to do more things and make the story even better.

There are lots of places to visit. Not having to repeat the same scenes over-and-over was a nice change. There is a Map available. You need to find Sneakers, which will enable you to jump from place to place; saves a lot of back/forth running.
The Graphics were nice and clear.
This is not a difficult game to play, but it is not easy either. I found this game to be a combination of adventure, with hidden object scenes and puzzles. Not to much of any one thing.
I thoroughly enjoyed the game. Show less

This game was fun from the opening scene. I'm a classic film lover anyway, so it didn't take much. :#
The game starts out with Helena rushing to save her 'Mum' Rita Ray, from a crazed 'has been' movie director. Only problem is that, her quest begins on the Director's isolated, private island. The storyline piqued my interest immediately, as I found the setting and characters very likeable & appropriate. The voiceovers were very well done, and added to the credibility of the story.
As for the graphics, music & sound, they fit seamlessly in the game. I didn't get distracted because something looked or sounded out of place. #I appreciate that#.
The mini-games & puzzles were nice, because they weren't overly difficult and the items in the HO scenes were easily identifiable. The Hint & Skip buttons were slow to recharge, but not unreasonably so.
I'd definitely purchase this game, if as other said, it were longer. However, I'd highly recommend you try for yourself. It's a very enjoyable game.

When I saw the preview for this game I wasn't sure I was going to try it. I'm glad I did. Just a fun, pretty straight forward HOG. The only thing I really didn't like was that it was too short, otherwise I really enjoyed the music, graphics and voice overs that were done. It was not your usual HOG.

Reminds me of an old B movie - just like the authors intended! It was fun playing the demo even though the puzzles weren't that difficult (so far at least!). The HO areas are just fine. I REALLY like the ability to use the map to 'jump' from room to room - in other words going back and forth wasn't so tedious! I finished the demo in 30 minutes...and bought it immediately. Two thumbs up!
