My favourite games are TM this one has to be one of the best. Initially I thought I may find it frustrating but after trying various strategies for completing a level to gold star its been really cleverly thought out on achieving the gold star. Not frustrating at all. Each level is different on tasks too, so no mundane collection of the same resource over and over. Great and amusing graphics too. ...Show more

Pennmom36...I just lost my fur baby too. Rudy...Almost 2 months. Hugs to you.

Great series and this one has some new added quirks in each level that are different from the other offerings. The colors seem brighter as well. I don't see a difference between CE and regular though!

I recommend this game!

Graphics are basic but, colorful and balanced.

Mood music is Medieval based themes,10 scores. Nice but somewhat too mellow for me. It has some humor in the dialogs as usual

Mood music is Medieval based themes,10 scores. Nice but somewhat too mellow for me. It has some humor in the dialogs as usual

It plays much the same as the last game except you have map pieces to find. The levels are harder to get top score in even just normal time mode. The easter eggs are puzzle pieces, the map level will tell you if you found them or not and they are not on every level.

When you complete the main level you have 15 bonus levels to try. Map pieces are in there too.

It's a fun game to play but very challenging in time mode, I completed all the levels only after replaying the tough ones several times for gold award. You should loosely follow the strategy guide which will just give you hints on how to proceed. The guides with puzzle piece locations unlock when you are playing a level. Show less

I recommend this game!

I do love a good challenge, but there's a fine line between challenge & frustration, a line in which New Yankee has crossed with room to spare! I'm not an expert TM guru, but I am an experienced TM player. The Relaxed-untimed Modes have always seemed kind of pointless to me, that's why I choose to play in the Normal Mode...which is supposed to be designed for players like me??!!

I do love a good challenge, but there's a fine line between challenge & frustration, a line in which New Yankee has crossed with room to spare! I'm not an expert TM guru, but I am an experienced TM player. The Relaxed-untimed Modes have always seemed kind of pointless to me, that's why I choose to play in the Normal Mode...which is supposed to be designed for players like me??!!

New Yankee has been on my top 10 favorites list, and yes, it has always been a challenging game, but the levels were eventually doable once I got the hang of it. The last several games, however, have been so hardcore that it's no longer fun, it's frustrating! Please Yustas...make New Yankee fun again! You can continue to make the games frustratingly difficult, to those that enjoy the impossible, by adding a Hardcore Mode, but please, put the NORMAL back in the Normal Mode for those of us who like a challenge without the madness!!!

Obviously, you can play in a Relaxed, Normal, or Expert Difficulty Mode, and there are 42 Achievement Trophies to earn. There are 45 Main Levels, 15 CE Levels, and 10 Bonus Levels, some of which have a Hidden Jigsaw Puzzle Piece to create a Jigsaw Puzzle when complete.

Mary is the Spellcaster who uses Mana collected by the workers to cast spells that will regrow trees, add extra workers or speed them up, etc. John is Mary's knight in shining armor who valiantly protects his damsel, distressed or not, from harmful foes, and of course, Max the bulldog is always on guard...those noxious weeds don't stand a chance!

Like most TM games, you must gather resources and clear paths, such as, gathering food baskets and farming wheat crops, gathering wood logs, chopping down trees, mining gold, clearing boulders, patching holes, repairing bridges, constructing or repairing sawmills, or mills to produce more food, building houses for rent, finding treasure chests, and constructing specialty buildings such as the Raven's House who can then fly to unreachable caches.

If you are a casual player, you may find that this game is far too frustrating if you are like me and replay levels until you earn Gold. If you are a hardcore TM player, I'm still betting you will have a difficult time earning gold but you may enjoy the hardcore challenge?

The Collector's Edition version has 45 Main Levels, 15 CE Levels, 10 Bonus Levels, 10 Original Music Soundtracks, 42 Cinematics (I read the story via the cinematics and skip the conversations before each level) 4 Wallpapers, 20 Character Bios, a Jigsaw Puzzle (with 32 Collectible Jigsaw Puzzle Pieces), a Room to Upgrade (with an available Screenshot), and a Built-in Strategy Guide.

Speaking of hardcore, hike on over to my new forum for some hardcore fun in The Woods. Chat with fellow game fans, catch up with long-lost fishies from the Big Fish Forum days or just chillax for a bit by the campfire with an endless supply of smores. We're starting a new group play game in a few days so join us at The Woods Forum at thewoodsforum.boards.net Show less

I don't recommend this game.

this entire series seems to go downhill with each new release. the "time management" concept has been been removed from your (the player) control to you being stuck just watching yet another character perform an unnecessary task eating up your time on the clock. why does it take a bird valuable seconds to sit in front of an egg and just poke or peck at it before flying it back somewhere. and never mind the ridiculous gremlin that had more and more "building" to do.
This latest release has seemingly removed the ability to see what inventory you need (what's left, not what the total cost is) - what a step backwards, are we back a the first version again?
This is the last "New Yankee" I'll buy - I said that two versions ago and yet I keep "giving it one more try" No thanks, won't fool me again - This use to be my favorite series, now it's just no longer fun Show less

I don't recommend this game.
