Very seldom do I eat crow, the feathers tend to be annoying, but here it is....this game is actually a GEM. VERY hard to slog through at first, but then once you discover a certain item, and actually get to the first REAL HOG scene....you are bored to tears, then all of a sudden when you get to these magical and gorgeous scenes, does everything suddenly get better. Is this game for everyone? NO. ...Show more

Very seldom do I eat crow, the feathers tend to be annoying, but here it is....this game is actually a GEM. VERY hard to slog through at first, but then once you discover a certain item, and actually get to the first REAL HOG scene....you are bored to tears, then all of a sudden when you get to these magical and gorgeous scenes, does everything suddenly get better. Is this game for everyone? NO. YOU have to try it out yourself and hopefully get to those lovely little scenes before the game demo times out, it timed out just into the second HOG scene and now I am hooked and willling to buy this game when I can.
Trust me, just like Beauty and the Beast you gotta get beyond appearances and find the magic within, it's worth it. The music once you get to these lovely and definaltey different scenes is magical and whimsical. If you have a love of hidden treasures in your games, this is it....try, try, try it! Show less

I recommend this game!

Wow. It's interesting what people like and what they don't... I loved this game and hated it at the same time. Apparently, I'm a glutton for punishment. It's definitely tasking at times. There are no hints, just an "assistant" to lend a hand. I would advise playing through the entire demo before making up your mind - and then go ahead and get it anyway. One of the other reviewers was dead on with ...Show more

Wow. It's interesting what people like and what they don't... I loved this game and hated it at the same time. Apparently, I'm a glutton for punishment. It's definitely tasking at times. There are no hints, just an "assistant" to lend a hand. I would advise playing through the entire demo before making up your mind - and then go ahead and get it anyway. One of the other reviewers was dead on with their tips about pushing away the clouds and the way the developers were thinking whilst building the game. It's definitely different but most worthwhile.

This just came on the Daily Deal and I read the reviews and decided I'd better try it for myself what with all the mixed likes and don't likes.
I'm pleased I did, finished the demo and just bought it.
It's very different with some very intriguing puzzles. Once I got the hang of the game the time went so quickly.
I say, try it and be patient until it gets going.

Looking forward to doing the whole game now. Show less

Finished it. Very unique. Definitly had to dust off some of the grey cells. Good brain exercise. I really liked the clever puzzles. You don't often see great games like this that challenge the mind. I have a large screen which made searching & finding objects easier. I can see where some fishies with smaller screens may have a problem finding some of the very small objects.

I have a large screen which made searching & finding objects easier. I can see where some fishies with smaller screens may have a problem finding some of the very small objects. Check the journal and also the detective at the bottom of the screen for clues. I say give this game a try. Show less

Ok, the first 30 minutes are a little boring. But once you get the "rhythm" of the game, it's just a pleasure - not an easy one though.

I for one will NOT be buying the game. I got to the funny looking design in the middle of the safe that looks like a funny key or something fits in it. No walkthrough or anything and turkey detective says to open safe. CAN NOT get help in forums (reason for that) so I am stuck.

Looked like a promising game except for that tiny bit of a problem with the safe.

Recommendation on purchasing it. I leave it up to the individual player if they want to waste their $$$.$$ or credits.

Off to play Best in Show Solitaire , a BFG game. Show less

I always HAVE to check out games that everybody hates. No, it's not just your run of the mill hidden object game with a few puzzles, it's more like an old-time adventure game with a few hidden objects that you can use to solve puzzles. I applaud their attempt to be a bit different, but you have to like the true adventure game to even have a chance of liking this game. I actually quite enjoyed it. ...Show more

I always HAVE to check out games that everybody hates. No, it's not just your run of the mill hidden object game with a few puzzles, it's more like an old-time adventure game with a few hidden objects that you can use to solve puzzles. I applaud their attempt to be a bit different, but you have to like the true adventure game to even have a chance of liking this game. I actually quite enjoyed it. However, it goes slowly and methodically - no rushing here, and your hints can be very vague. This game is not a super game, but for those who like the genre, it is more for the ex-adventurer who wants a nudge as to what to do from time to time, or for someone new to adventure who wants a bit more hand holding than more true adventures provide. Not excellent, but enjoyable nonetheless. Show less

This game requires a little patience to get the hang of what needs to be done but is well worth the effort. OK the sockets for the wrench are not that easy to find and the instructions are not that obvious until you get into the way the developer thinks but try the whole demo for yourself before relying on other people's reviews. One major point I would make is accept the tutorial and use the assistant rather than the hint button.
I also like that some of the puzzles have a slight twist to them and are not as straightforward and boring as they first appear. Show less

I'm going to be in the minority on this game and say it was one of the most unique, "out of the box" HO adventure games I've ever played. You've never seen a game like this. In one HO scene, you must sweep the cursor back and forth to dissipate clouds. I also disagree that it is as random as others say. They are many clues hidden and you must refer to the journal often.

I'm going to be in the minority on this game and say it was one of the most unique, "out of the box" HO adventure games I've ever played. You've never seen a game like this. In one HO scene, you must sweep the cursor back and forth to dissipate clouds. I also disagree that it is as random as others say. They are many clues hidden and you must refer to the journal often. In the library, only click open books and they will continue to disappear until you find the right one. To display the hidden writing, click the blank paper on each glowing flask and then over the burning torch until the writing lights up.

This is the quickest demo hour I've ever played. I would like to know the length, but I've never seen a game like this and intend to buy.

Wow! Show less

I recommend this game!
