First of all, I'd like to mention the fact that on the first Travel Mosaics game, this dev visited us on the now abolished BF forums. They said they would address the issue of the hard to see numbers that blended into the background, AND THEY DID!

First of all, I'd like to mention the fact that on the first Travel Mosaics game, this dev visited us on the now abolished BF forums. They said they would address the issue of the hard to see numbers that blended into the background, AND THEY DID! Too bad the forums don't exist anymore, because it gave us a way to communicate with the devs who cared enough to talk with us, so if your listening...Thank you for a wonderful game, thank you for fixing the issue!

The filled in squares are colorful and look like 3D bubbles. You can play in an Easy mode which crosses off one by one or Difficult mode which only crosses off squares when the entire row or column has been completed. I wasn't crazy about the music, I'm still not crazy about the overbearing music, but I just turned down the volume.

As you fill in tiles, you will earn coins, or Power-up recharges. Power-ups can be upgraded, and you can also buy Souvenirs. There are Power-ups such as Hammer, Sun, Lightning and even a Bomb, they start out with very little coverage area which increases with each upgrade.

Each Location has 6 main levels, 1 bonus level, and 1 additional puzzle. You must earn at least 3 Stars on each main level to open the bonus level, and you must earn 3 stars on the Bonus Level to open the additional puzzle. You have to earn at least 1 Star in each of the main levels to unlock the next location.

There is a Book icon that gives a brief description of the locations, which comes in handy if you make too many mistakes because you will be asked some questions about the locations as a chance to earn another chance to play.

I almost didn't buy this game based on the reviews, so I'm glad I tried it for myself. There are so many EASY nonagram games out there that I think people are put off by a challenging one. I haven't had to guess yet. This takes a lot of thought. (At least for me!) Sometimes all you can get is one square going back and forth between colors, but you can still solve it with 3 stars.

It just takes longer to solve them, but I like the extra hours of game play. My only complaint with all of these games is that I wish they would make BIGGER GRIDS! Really, is 15 X 20 the only size? That being said, I am having a great time with this game. Show less

Imagine my surprise to see this gem of a game today of BFG!!! I just absolutely love Travel Mosaics!!! The colours are great, the music is relaxing and love the fact that there is no more black on black!!! (I missed the boat on the first game, A Paris Tour)....I really enjoy the various power ups so I am not geared up to getting the necessary stars in order to play an extra level or puzzle..if I do, great, if no, not a big deal. I find that I am stressing myself out by trying to get 2 or 3 stars on every single level and not use the power ups...that to me is not fun...and I am still relatively new at this....I like to relax by playing games, I don't like to be put to the test by aiming for perfect or near perfect...just like to play each level with no pressure, lol! So, once again, I am ignoring the extra levels and puzzles....the main game is just wonderful as t is without all that, for me at least :)...Keep up the good work, Developers and more please!!!! Maybe one without the stress perhaps? :):):) Show less

I recommend this game!

I really like this game. For me the levels are a little harder than in some games. I like having to slow down and really pay attention to where I am clicking. Some of the grid or mosaic games are so easy I make mistakes because I am going fast to get through the big areas. They are just not fun.

I don't like the little sounds.

I like if you miss a lot of times you get a trivia question, but I hate that you have to get all perfects to open the bonus puzzle. This seems contradictory, too. You are rewarded with a cool question if you lose, but then you don't get the bonus puzzle even if you get through all 6 regular puzzles unless you have a perfect score. So you miss some of the fun ...Show more

So you miss some of the fun either way. I am tired of playing these types of puzzles over and over for perfect scores, so meh.

It's really hard to see the yellow color against the beige background. Headache time.

Unless you buy all of these mosaic games, buy another. There are better ones. Show less

I'm one of those people who always strives for a perfect score on each and every level. Yes, it's a curse but I like being forced to think and reason things out.

These mosaic games are supposed to be based on logic. So in order to get a perfect score, I cannot use a power-up or make a mistake. If I do either of those two things, I won't score perfectly.

I'm one of those people who always strives for a perfect score on each and every level. Yes, it's a curse but I like being forced to think and reason things out.

These mosaic games are supposed to be based on logic. So in order to get a perfect score, I cannot use a power-up or make a mistake. If I do either of those two things, I won't score perfectly.

Everything was fine until I got to the ninth level where logic suddenly flew out the window. I was forced to eventually use all four power-ups before I could complete the grid correctly. Sorry, but that's a deal breaker for me. Also, the graphics interface is cartoon-ish and hand drawn which I find distracting.

So even though I could play a jigsaw puzzle at each location and buy souvenirs for the vacationing family, it wasn't enough to entice me to continue on. Others who don't care about making mistakes or using power-ups obviously rated this game highly. I simply cannot do the same. Show less

I don't recommend this game.

If I had paid more for this game than the sale price I would not be happy. Not sure that it was even worth the $3.99 I paid. The colors are very good but other aspects of the game are annoying. First of all, the weird sounds. The game makes sounds like you have made an error but it seems it is just adding to a power-up. Speaking of power-ups..Yes they are there but you don't dare use them.

First of all, the weird sounds. The game makes sounds like you have made an error but it seems it is just adding to a power-up. Speaking of power-ups..Yes they are there but you don't dare use them. Anytime you use a power-up you lose a star. You have to have three stars on almost every level to get to play the bonus games and the puzzles. There are a lot better mosaic style games available.

Ans that's because there are levels that cannot be worked out by the numbers on the sides, with logic..No you have to guess where your pieces are, usually ending in a restart. Also if you answer the questions to continue you get the same ones over and over, which is helpful, but stupid. Sorry but if you can deduct where your tiles are there's really no point

I don't recommend this game.

but I don't. There are wonderful power-ups but if you use one, a star is deducted. You have to have like 6 3-star puzzles to move on to the next level. So you earn power-ups but if you use them you get penalized. I feel mad about this. I am not getting this game.
