I usually buy the 'Collector Edition' games. Normally when a game like this comes out that has no CE I don't even stop and look. The title caught my eye so I opened it, looked at the pics and video clip. I was pretty sure that this was something that I would enjoy and I was right. I knew within the first 10 minutes that I was going to purchase this game. I don't submit reviews for games very often ...Show more

I usually buy the 'Collector Edition' games. Normally when a game like this comes out that has no CE I don't even stop and look. The title caught my eye so I opened it, looked at the pics and video clip. I was pretty sure that this was something that I would enjoy and I was right. I knew within the first 10 minutes that I was going to purchase this game. I don't submit reviews for games very often but I felt like this SE game that truly plays like a CE game deserved these 5 Stars and this great review!!

The game has 4 difficulty levels, Casual, Advanced, Expert and Custom. There are no collectible objects or morphing items but once I started playing, I really didn't miss them. The graphics and fantastic, background music is pleasant and easy to listen to without interfering with game play. Sound effects and the voice overs are really great!

So those of you that mostly CE players as well as the rest of us, give this great game a chance and you will not be disappointed!! Show less

I recommend this game!

I found this little gem yesterday morning, and decided to give it a try, boy am I glad I did it was fantastic!
Join Sam, a boy of thirteen years old, and find out who poisoned your friend Princess Aurora!
Let's embark on an amazing adventure in the Kingdom of Aurelia. Just as this incredible world entered into an epoch of the Renaissance and technological development, a plot directed against the royal family is discovered. It's up to you to find the villain who poisoned the princess so you can rescue her. Use advanced technologies to help you on your quest, including a helpful little robot named Tim and a unique device which can read the thoughts of any character!

It's sort of steampunk meets the Renaissance meets the tech. era. The scenes are very clear and enjoyable to look at. You get to tinker and build things which I love, I just wish they made it a tad more difficult. The game flows nicely you keep moving forward and you don't carry too many items in your inventory for very long, a definite bonus! The games and Hogs are fun.
This game is made by the same team that brought us the ever fantastic and funny ~Witch's Pranks: Frog's Fortune!~

I think this game is as good if not better than 95% of the recent games I've tried out by the big box game designers. Sometimes less is more and that is the case with this game!
I find myself rushing to finish my work so I can get back to playing this game and I can't really remember the last time that happened to me.
I highly suggest you at least give this game a try, I think you will enjoy it! Show less

I recommend this game!

Loved the game, graphics are clear and crisp. puzzles are a minor challenge but not difficuly if you stop and think about them.
The game ran without a single hitch and even though you think you are finished with a sceen, look around carefully.
A well valued game for a SC price.

I recommend this game!

Wish there were more hidden object scenes because they were my favorite.

A great way to spend a cc since there's NO CE's out or perhaps even coming out by the major developers I want.

Overall, a fun game and would like to see more from this developer Show less

The game mechanics are the best I've ever seen, everything is logically laid out, the artwork is beautiful (although the CG characters aren't very attractive) and even the voice acting is well done.

I was playing the demo and then all of a sudden it was over... cannot believe it went that fast - I was REALLY enjoying this game. A must buy for me. Graphics are fabulous (reminder me of Mortimer Becket). A must try for all.

REVIEW OF COMPLETED GAME

I really enjoyed this game. I believe it was a CE originally, so at the end of the game, there is no bonus, even though they say to play it. There is:

* Voiceovers (with dialogue);
* Casual, Advanced, Expert and Custom modes of play;
* 10 Achievements;
* Interactive map;
* Tim the robot to help you get items out of reach;
* Use of the mindscope to read ...Show more

REVIEW OF COMPLETED GAME

I really enjoyed this game. I believe it was a CE originally, so at the end of the game, there is no bonus, even though they say to play it. There is:

* Voiceovers (with dialogue);
* Casual, Advanced, Expert and Custom modes of play;
* 10 Achievements;
* Interactive map;
* Tim the robot to help you get items out of reach;
* Use of the mindscope to read minds.

The graphics are great - scenes are well defined and items you need are easy to see. The story line is easy to follow and I liked the characters. Sound is good and the music is orchestral and really lovely - I had it turned up very loud.

The hidden object games are interactive silhouette where you find one item to use to find another etc. These are not hard to do and I enjoyed them all. You can also play Mahjong if you fancy a change or can't quite find that last item.

There are a huge variety of mini-games to play. Most of them are pretty easy to do and it doesn't take long to move on with the game. A couple of them took me a little while to get in the right order - but nothing frustrating or maddening.

I found I didn't need to use the interactive map because you don't venture off too far and its easy to remember where tasks are to do.

The game took me about 5 hours or so to play on Expert mode with everything turned off - I love this feature. However, you can change your difficulty at any time.

Overall, a fantastic game. You will be making potions and a fixing a lot of machinery, so be prepared to get hands dirty!

Its not a hard game to play and is perfect for playing in between those big games we play. Its also perfect for all members of the family.

I really like this developer. A couple of the characters seemed familiar and I remember playing 'Namariel Legends Iron Lord' a few years back and enjoyed it. Definitely worth having a look at.

Happy playing fishies. Show less

I recommend this game!
