I know that it is a bit clunky, and that the translation suffers. But the storyline is there, straight from Verne, and you can get into the story.

The HOS are pertinent to the story, and they do advance the plot.

The visuals are great, specially under the ocean. It is kind of muted, for those who are addicted to real bright colors.

And you do not get into the mood "another damned HOS", ...Show more

And you do not get into the mood "another damned HOS", get on with the story already!"

And you get to fight the Kraken! Show less

I recommend this game!

More often than not when a game gets horrible reviews and I try it, I like it. Conversely when a game gets rave reviews, I am left disappointed.

Yes, this game has some translation flaws, but the hint system helps. You increase your hints by finding stars, which are fairly obvious. You can have a maximum of 6 hints, When you use hint number 6, a star will automatically pop up in the scene to replace the used hint.

As far as getting around in the Nautilus, tIhere are highlighted arrows to click on so you know where to go. There is no guessing, or clicking 8 times down, 5 times to the right, as other annoying games make you do.

The graphics are clear and bright and the hidden objects are not heaped on top of each other in what some call junk piles.

There is no blood and guts, no vampires, no monsters -- so if that's your liking, stay away from this.

I finished the trial and will purchase it, so I cannot comment on the length.

If you want a "sit back and relax" game this will fit that bill. And when something gets lost in translation, just carry on.

I hope this review will counteract some of the overstated mishaps of this game. No, it is not the best hidden object game, but it is far from the worst. At least give it a try. Show less

I recommend this game!

I played the entire demo and found this game to be entertaining enough to hold my interest. The tutorial does an excellent job and the hidden object scenes were a mixture of list finds and finding the object that matches the silhouetted shape. The scenes were different each time and some of the scenes required you to interact with the inventory such as finding and using scraps found in the sea to construct a raft. Mini games were available such as organizing books on the shelves to reflect a spectrum of colors from greens into blues. You could find hidden stars to recharge hints with a maximum of 6 and there were controls that allowed you to zoom in and scan the room for items. I actually liked this adventure aboard the Nautilus, enjoy! Show less

When I first started to play the demo I wasn't sure if I was going to like it but about 10 minutes into the game I really enjoyed playing this game. You are on a mission to explore the Nautilus with Captian Nemo and his crew. You have to so a series of things leading up to the task. But the only downfall I have is that it is short. I wish the game was longer.

I recommend this game!

Good for HO beginners or youngsters (given no dark overtone)? Show less

The game itself was too short, and there didn't seem to be much of a challenge, it was too easy and over way to quickly for me.

I don't recommend this game.

Bought this for $2, but wish I hadn't. The game is ok but the left and right zoom is just annoying. The story wasn't that great. The different types of games is nice. Makes for a nice change of pace, but isn't enough really.

I don't recommend this game.

I only played the trial version, but was glad I did not spend any money on it. It was mostly sort of lame from the story line to the hidden object scenes. The creators used old world definitions for objects, making a two fold thing. One to figure out what they meant, two to find it.
The graphics were good, the story was cool, but I would not buy it.

I don't recommend this game.
