I find this game to be excellent all around. From the storyline, puzzles, etc. I cannot find a single dislike about the game.

I recommend this game!

Beautiful Enjoyable Game. I think they use to have both two of each collectibles in each scene in the past but now it's two star which look like a gem or heart and one butterfly which doesn't look much like one. It's still a nice amount with a good indicator.

Beautiful Enjoyable Game. I think they use to have both two of each collectibles in each scene in the past but now it's two star which look like a gem or heart and one butterfly which doesn't look much like one. It's still a nice amount with a good indicator.

Grace is use to going into portals and this one has three worlds to visit. Sisters, Blossom and Iron. I liked the robot Josephine 8 in the Iron world. I have her on pc from the wallpapers. Liked the art deco and the cogs décor in the wallpaper with her. In the Blossom world I liked the ice crystal spinning spheres and wished I had that in a screensaver.

Loved the hops. I like the matching, in the right order, differences, connect the same colors and the maze. The 10 seconds skip is too long for the puzzles I didn't like. I wish they didn't have a achievement for finishing all the puzzles because then I would have all of them. It's not really fair for hops lovers. I didn't care for the last puzzle of the bonus chapter or the hidden puzzle. Would have preferred a hidden hops.

Replays on 23 movies, 13 hops, 12 mini-games and 8 music. It has a butterfly puzzle from all the butterflies collected, 10 wallpapers and 10 concept art. 3 chapters + bonus. Show less

I recommend this game!

REVIEW BASED UPON THE ENTIRE GAME
3 Chapters Plus a Bonus Chapter – Strategy Guide: 38 pages (My Time: 6 Hours)

OPINION: Jettison between the four worlds of the constellation Meridiem in celebration of the centennial return of the Star Goddess. In this sci-fi fantasy game, you must help the goddess by locating twinkles, (one located in each of three worlds), to spark her fading heart. The player will move from world to another in search of those twinkles. The worlds include one whose inhabitants are divided by two cities, one controlled by magic, and a final polluted one which is inhabited by robots and humans.

I liked, but did not love, this game. It is a decent game; however, I did not find it of the same quality as games from other developers. It is an easy play, one which can be enjoyed by all age groups. I liked the beginning of the game but felt the pace dragged after the demo. There are fewer activities as the game progresses. I did enjoy the potpourri of different themes throughout the game. There is a different one for each world. There are elements of fantasy with the magic of the world of Blossom mixed with the sci-fi element of robotics in the world of Iron.

The collectibles are stars and butterflies. There is a sidebar on the left side of the screen which indicates how many collectibles are within the scenes and how many are remaining to be located. I found the stars easy to locate; however, I had difficulty locating the butterflies. To me, many of the butterflies did not look like butterflies which made it extremely difficult to locate them. I needed to contact the strategy guide at times to find them. If a player cannot locate them all, upon completion of the game, he/she can return to the scenes to search for them. The collected butterflies need to be assembled, after which, the player can read details about them There is an extra hidden puzzle at the end of the game. It is a checkers puzzle in which the player must remove more pieces on the board than his opponent, the computer. There is a choice to play this game in a hard or casual mode.

HELPER OWL: The game comes equipped with a helper owl which sits at the side of the screen, used to reach high places. I dislike helpers in games, especially ones which make no logical sense as to their purpose. Luckily, this owl is not used much in the game and sits quietly at the side of the screen. At least he does not hoot; he just flaps his wings as he ascends to point to an inventory item.

MECHANICS:
• Four (4) levels of play including a customized version.
• 15 achievements.
• Collect 44 stars and 20 butterflies
• 10 wallpapers along with concept art, music, and video sequences
• Helper owl which helps retrieves items from high places.
• Hidden checkers-styled puzzle made available at the end of the game. Casual and Hard options.
• Replay 13 HOP scenes and 12 mini-games

BONUS CHAPTER: It is a prequel set in the Iron World from the main game. Investigate the problem of pollution on this world with Elula Wul. She suffers from asthma as did her parents and now wants a better world for her children. Science has made the citizens of this world forget about the sacrifice of the Star Goddess and now she wishes to see a spiritual awakening in the world in which she lives. Continue to collect the collectibles. I found this a decent chapter, but, somewhat slow paced with few activities. It only has two HOP scenes and six (6) mini-games.

HOP SCENES: There sixteen (16) HOP scenes and a few mini-HOP scenes searching for six objects. A Match-3 game can be played instead of the scene. I found the scenes varied and creatively designed. They include silhouette, lists of items, storybook, matching, and searches for items which are then returned and used within the scene. There is one spot-the-differences scene and a silhouette scene with sliders which are used to match an item with its silhouette before removing it. Most of the scenes have multiple scenes in which to locate items. One of the most creative scenes for me was one with a diorama which rotated.

MINI-GAMES: There are twenty-five (25) mini-games, only twelve (12) of which can be replayed. As I have stated previously, I wish the developers would allow the players to replay more mini-games upon completion of the game. The ones in this game are variations of ones seen in other games. I found most of the puzzles easy. There are a few which are of middle-difficulty and none which I found challenging.

SPOILERS: HERE ARE SOME OF THE MINI-GAMES AFTER THE DEMO:

A. Tracing puzzle. Trace designs to defeat an evildoer. 3X
B. Assembly puzzle. Choose the correct 3 symbols, which, when combined, create a given design. 3X
C. Rotating rings puzzle. Rotate rings to restore an image
D. Connection puzzle. On a grid, connect pairs of like colored squares so that all are connected, and lines do not cross
E. Map puzzle. Places arrows in the proper sequence so that a bus ends up at its destination point. There are places where the bus must stop and where it should not stop.
F. Logic puzzle. Place colored balls into colored boxes according to given clues.
BONUS CHAPTER:
G. Connection puzzle. Connect the dots on an anvil so that all paths are connected
H. Switch puzzle. Switch 9 pieces on a grid to restore an image 3X
I. Rotating rings puzzle. Rotate 3 rings until all the sums of each segment’s dots equal the numbers surrounding the circular grid. Show less

I recommend this game!

I just finished the entire game and I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed it! The first game in a very long time I felt worthy of buying the CE edition and I wasn't disappointed except for the 3rd small bonus puzzle game, didn't care for it but the game and bonus game were stellar.
Loved the music, the different times and locations I got to travel to. The scenes and the graphics were just beautiful! The hidden object puzzles were interactive, fun and so nice to look at, the mini-games, for the most part, were fun and doable without much consternation, a few that were more like jigsaw or slide puzzles are not my thing so I just skipped them.
The only reasons I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is length, it could have been longer, but it was still far longer than most we've been getting lately, and also I gave Reflections of Life: Dark Architect and Screams and Sorrows 5 stars
due to the gorgeous graphics, this game has some beautiful scenes and graphics but not as beautiful as the ones seen in the two games mentioned above.
A very fun, enjoyable game that I highly recommend! If you can get it on sale as I did all the better. Show less

I recommend this game!
