I really enjoy these games, and was happy when a new one came out. I like the characters, the story line, the graphics, the sound - everything. It's not complicated, or particularly challenging, but it's fun. I have enjoyed every one in this series - they are the same, and yet different enough in story line and the running gimmick, to not be boring. Looking forward to another one in the future.

19 Scene Locations +7 CE Bonus Chapter
Difficulty Range: Beginner-Intermediate
One of Amanda's favorite childhood memories was their family trip to The Redwood Forest to visit her Great Aunt Tina who always had amazing stories to tell her about Magical Forest Critters. Now Amanda is returning to the forest as a renowned Biologist to investigate plants that look exactly like humans! Amanda will gain more knowledge than she ever thought possible, as she uncovers corruption at the Redwood Forest!
I absolutely loved this story which reminded me a lot of the Enigmatis series from yesteryear! Friendly Fox knows how to create a wonderful fantasy filled with magic and mystery...perhaps better than any other developer and although the gameplay was fairly easy, I enjoyed this game and loved the morphs & collectibles far more than any game the big D has offered in the last few years!

Collectibles/Morphing Objects: (CE version only)
Each scene has 2 of those infamous 4Friends Opaque Collectibles that are really well-blended into the scenery and one of my personal favorite collectibles overall. (my all-time favorite CE feature are non-linear morphs from the original DP series) There is an available pull-out Tab on the left side that tells you how many morphs & collectibles remain in each scene, a feature I for one appreciate.
There are 52 Opaque Forest Animals which unlocks a new Animal of the Forest when you find 5-15-28-40-52 Opaque Animals in the game. My only complaint is that they repeated the same animals, I wish they had used their wonderful imaginations to create several different animals to search for, which in turn would unlock more forest critters!
Each scene also has two Morphing Objects, some of which are very well-hidden and challenging to spot at first glance, others morphed into objects that seemed out of place so they were easily spotted.

Gadget/Helper:
Grey the Australian Shepherd is your Helper and he is used 5 times in the Main Chapter to dig dirt or fetch objects. He sits quietly in the Inventory Bar and isn't annoying at any point...he's also adorable!
Friendly Fox loves their Amulets and this game is no exception. When you encounter a magical Forest critter you must first befriend him by feeding him or helping him in various manners. After befriending him you will use your Amulet to scan the scene for 5-6 Fragments which allows you to read the animal's mind as you watch a short video explaining what the animal endured. After the video you will receive that animal's power:
SPOILER ALERT (animal/powers)
Dog-sense of smell
Skunk-odor
Magical Deer-flight
Falcon-sight
Magical Coyote-fire
Bear-strength
Hidden Object Scenes:
There are 13 Hidden Object Scenes +6 in the CE Bonus Chapter many of which are smaller zoom zone HOs requiring you to match identical objects, and of course, there are several HO scenes associated with the Amulet Gadget. Although some of the scenes are duplicated, the type of HO varies each time and some of the variations are quite fun and all of them are very colorful. There are several Interactive List Finds, and Keywords in Sentence Finds as well as Replacing Items into the Scene, Fill in the Blanks by dragging the correct object to each sentence, Pictured or Silhouetted Shape Finds, and Multiples of the Same type.
Mini-Games:
There are 12 Mini-Games +5 in the CE Bonus Chapter. Most of the puzzles have been offered a hundred times before, but they aren't necessarily bad puzzles, just nothing new. The infamous games include a game of Cups where you keep track of the cup containing a cat toy, Navigate thru a forest maze using directional arrows while finding and using objects to overcome obstacles, Drop 2 boltcutters to the bottom at the same time, Connect dots to replicate a pattern, Move tokens to matching slots along a track, Sort colored liquids in test tubes, Synchronize 2 radio waves, Light all fuses with the specified number of connections, to name a few. I did enjoy the puzzle where you had to rotate bulbs with different colored bases and place them correctly by following tangled wire paths.
Bonus Chapter: (CE version only)
The new director is faced with her first major disaster when a Cyclone threatens the Redwood Forest inhabitants and visitors. Can she save the creatures and the humans in time? The BC spans 7 additional scene locations with 5 mini-games and 6 Hidden Object Scenes. You will complete your Opaque Animal Collection and Morphing Objects (2 per scene of each) which will unlock the final 2 Animals of the forest.
Collector's Edition Version Extra's:
10 Wallpapers, 13 Concept Art Pictures, 5 Screensavers, 5 Music Soundtracks, 17 Movie Video Cutscenes, 15 Achievements (some are available in 3 category progressions) 17 Replayable Hidden Object Scenes, 13 Replayable Mini-Games, 52 Opaque animals (2 per scene) 52 Morphing Objects (2 per scene) 4 Main Chapters +Bonus Chapter and a Built-In Strategy Guide.
