There was a ritual, your bother was kidnapped, chasing kidnapers causes a car crash (sorry folks), and you must find your brother who has been taken to a mansion.
Three levels of play:
Casual - Quick hint refill and sparklines
Expert - Twice as long hint refil and mini game skips
Professional - No Hints, skips or sparklines
You have a diary, but no map that I found, great appropriate music, cinematic characters, excellent audio and no click penalty. The mini-games have been mixed in well with the hidden object games. Mini-games are fun but typical with a few variances mixed in. Hidden object scenes are well drawn with large objects, some items have to be combined, and there is no click penalty. Demo ends once you gain access to the mansion.
Very well done - good job game developers! Show less
I recommend this game!

Played in casual mode which I always do first time. Just enough HO scenes and puzzles beautifully mixed so as not to hang too long.
Music good, voice acting good. No map but not needed as hint system pointed in right direction if I got stumped as to where to go.

A new developer for me, and they've really hit the mark with this game. I'm still hoping BigFish will add developers name to game description.
Good value for money and very replayable.

I played my hour & couldn't wait til it was up so I could buy this game. Every thing about this game was great; the graphics, music, HO's, etc. The hint button tells where to go next, but it doesn't tell you what to do. That's fairly simple. I highly recommend this game to anyone.

I didn't time myself playing the game so I'm not sure how long it took me, but I can say that it was an enjoyable time and I'm glad I got it. Show less

I really enjoyed every minute of this Game! The Game play was easy but storyline was interesting enough to keep you playing. Great Graphics and live people talking to you through out the Game was a Collector's Edition touch. The Music was a bit repetitive but you don't really notice it if you are immersed in the Game. Definitely worth a try!

Excellent game with fantastic mini games. The HOG are not difficult but fun. Very relaxing but the hour free play is just not long enough. This is a clever game in that you get so in to it that once the hour is up you just have to buy it. Music gets a bit annoying at times but it doesn't spoil the enjoyment of the game.

I loved the 15 hops. The music is on a loop and plays over and over. I had to shut it off. This is a old game. One hops had a floppy disk on the list. The actors don't talk, you have to read everything they say. No map but the hints will lead you. More story than anything. Lots of hidden places to go. I think it was interesting.

I REALLY liked this game. It's rather long so it kept me busy for a long time. Perfect game for the Halloween season! Items were well drawn and puzzles were more difficult that most other games.

I loved this game! It was very dark and twisted! Gameplay was great the visuals are fantastic on this game. Very fun to play and at times challenging. The story behind it was good, you're racing against time to try and save your brother from an evil plot (I wont say anymore wouldn't want to spoil it for you) Overall I would recommend this to any HOG fan
I recommend this game!
