Wave of Time is not a game for everyone, but if you love a decent story, beautiful computer generated graphics, old fashioned Interactive Listed Item HO's and some of the most creative (and might I just add never been done before) Mini Games, then what's not to like with this little gem!

Wave of Time is not a game for everyone, but if you love a decent story, beautiful computer generated graphics, old fashioned Interactive Listed Item HO's and some of the most creative (and might I just add never been done before) Mini Games, then what's not to like with this little gem!

Jane and Mike arrive at Aunt Miranda's home in the Alps, when Jane finally explains why they are there. Jane explains that all the pictures she has of her Aunt, are being distorted, all images of Aunt Miranda are disappearing! Turns out, Aunt Miranda passed away.......in August of 1966. There's only one explanation for her death in 1966, because Jane wouldn't have been born yet!

The Hidden Object Scenes are plentiful, yet not over done, and all of them are basically the same. First you have to find 3 color coded objects to open up an Interactive List find Hidden Object Scene and the final object requires a small puzzle to solve.

The Mini Games are never ending! I can't remember a game having so many puzzles. Not just the same old puzzles we've seen a hundred times, new puzzle, fun puzzles, really fun puzzles! I'll list a few examples.

1) Click on cards that are next to each other that have the same card value, the remaining cards will fall into their place.

2) Remove all billiard balls from the field by using one ball to bump others off the board until only one remains.

3) Select the area on a map that matches the shapes shown one by one.

4) Swap tiles so the picture corresponds to the Country's flag.

5) Find each pair of small discs with identical pictures.

6) Connect the colored cells of the same color using directional arrows to move the tiles next to their matching colored tiles to make them all disappear.

7) Rotate the daisies so that all colored petals match on all sides.

8) Find the numbers 1-10 hidden within encrypted scrolls.

9) Find all 10 mistakes on a picture.

10) Click on buttons until all turn green.

This game is honestly worth a coupon at the very least if you love mini games. The graphics are really really well done, and the storyline is pretty interesting, enjoy! Show less

I recommend this game!

I'm surprised nobody has tried or left a review of this fun semi-sci-fi game. This game is made by the same people who made the games: Invasion: Lost in Time & Invasion 2 Doomed! Bright clear graphics, the music is pretty good and it changes from scene to scene. The games, puzzles and hidden object scenes are loads of fun to play. Hidden object scenes are interactive.

I'm surprised nobody has tried or left a review of this fun semi-sci-fi game. This game is made by the same people who made the games: Invasion: Lost in Time & Invasion 2 Doomed! Bright clear graphics, the music is pretty good and it changes from scene to scene. The games, puzzles and hidden object scenes are loads of fun to play. Hidden object scenes are interactive. I love the games in this game relatively easy but fun, more like arcade type. some math games etc. Totally different type of games than the usual fair we get in other games. Normally I skip the games, not in this game, I've played them all!!
Beautiful scenery so far I've met Leonardo Da Vinci in Italy, the scenes were so pretty! I've just catapulted off through a time tunnel and ended up back in present time that looks way different than it should. I think I will also be going to a strange planet after this. Can't wait. I'm off to buy the game! Show less

I've been waiting a long time for a HOG+ that doesn't require holding conversations with game characters. The games within the game are different, not too challenging but well done and clever. I recommend this game.

I don't often submit reviews, I know I should in order to assist other gamers but I am too busy playing the games....no excuse really but I thoroughly recommend this game for those gamers who would enjoy a difference.

I don't usually buy non CE games but tried this one and really liked it. No royalty in distress, no monsters (so far), no purple smoke. Those factors make this game unique.

I know some panned it (thus my review title) but, in my opinion, it's pleasant change from the usual fare. Artwork is great - bright, clear, and well done. Story line is different from the typical tripe.

I knew when I saw the cutscenes advertising this game that it would be a somewhat different game, and it is indeed a different game. It almost reminds me of the old 'I SPY' games. The graphics were nice and clear, the colors bright, and the voiceovers were easy to understand. I don't necessarily like the games/puzzles that accompany most games, but I enjoyed each and every one of them in Wave of Time. They were on the easy side but had enough challenge to grab and hold your attention. I also like the sounds, especially whenever something was found and placed in your inventory. The HOS were interactive as well.

You don't want to pass this game by. I highly recommend it. Enjoy :) Show less

Whatever you do: Do Not Skip the last video clip,where Big Maggie in her wedding dress,is throwing bombs at you! This scene IS the finale of the game/story. Here,the questions are answered: Did they stop Leo from getting this all started? Did they make it home? Is present-day 2016,the same world as we know it? Is aunt Miranda still alive? I made the mistake,of skipping the scene,where the bombs were chucked at me,by poor Maggie,left standing at the altar: And had to play the whole game over again. Other than this about the game,as others have said,there are unique games,one after another. Reminds me of the arcade games: Centipede,Space Invaders,etc. Battleship. And,there are IHOPS too. A huge refreshing change! Show less

The VOs are good and graphics are, too. Story line is a bit fantastical, but if I want reality I'll read the newspaper. I thought that sometimes the instructions for some of the puzzles weren't real clear, but I've played these types of games long enough to figure out what to do. I found myself really looking forward to each puzzle, just to see what kind it was. I like the HO scenes, too - especially the interactive ones. When you want to just kick back and have fun, this game would be a good choice. Show less

Aunt Miranda disappears from all her photos and is also missing from her home. When Jane and Mike arrive, they try to unravel the mystery and soon embark on a journey through time. A futuristic pair of gloves with special powers have been found in auntie's basement, which can create a transition in time. Suddenly a portal appears. Jane and Mike step through the portal hoping to locate Aunt Miranda. Finding themselves in 1478 Italy, they know their time-line is way off. And I think the rescue attempt from this point should provide some decent entertainment.

There were 4 HOGs and 7 games in my demo time. WOW! Every one was really great. Very different, challenge depends on which game mode you choose. The HOGs were lots of fun, very interactive. Especially loved the first one which was full of toys and interactive in surprising ways.

I didn't experience a lot of the actual storyline because of so many games, which isn't a bad thing. But I did see enough to know that it will probably be a good, busy adventure.

The graphics, colors, voices were all excellent. The characters were extremely well done. Music didn't irritate me to death. The scenes were lovely to look at.

This seems to be a very generous Standard Edition and has promise of an entertaining adventure through time. I just hope it isn't too bogged down with games. Not many good SEs have come our way, for far too long.

Thanks to other reliable reviewers I always manage to make the right choice when shopping for games. So I purchased this one soon after demo, and will rate it 5 stars.

God Bless.... Show less

I recommend this game!
