I look forward to my Vacation Adventures Cruise and my Vacation Adventures to the Pinecreek Hills Park every year. It may be an "old-school" HOG but I'm not school for cool and in my book, these games are really enjoyable! When I play games in this series, it's as if I'm returning to a familiar vacation destination, with a familiar family. I look forward to playing this game each and every year, and I'm never disappointed! If you haven't gotten onboard the Vacation Adventures train, you're totally missing out on an epic HO adventure, and the happy feeling you'll get, every time you play this game!
There are seek and find puzzles in scenes all around the park, and even scenes where you find multiples of similar or related objects. Each scene has several wildlife animals to find that are shown as silhouettes in a box to the left of the word search bar and when all the animals have been spotted, the box will close. You can even access a Wildlife Notebook to see illustrations of all the wildlife you have found. You will also recycle trash that is laying around, such as plastic bottles, crumpled paper, bottles and cans, when all trash has been found, the recycle can icon will be displayed and the bin will be full.
You will earn an Eagle Eye achievement if you don't use either the Hint or Mega Hint feature. The Magnifying Glass will show you a hint of one item and the Mega hint will show you the location of every item left to find. You earn a Bronze star for completing the search, a Silver star if you find all wildlife OR all recyclable items and a Gold star if you find all wildlife AND all recyclable items. Words listed in blue require an interaction of some type, and words in red are hidden inside or behind things, requiring you to click on an item to open it or move it, which will reveal the hidden item. Many of the scenes have an area that zooms in which will have several items within, that are on the list. Levels can be replayed at anytime to better your score or locate items you missed the first time.
My favorite feature in the Vacation Adventures games are the abundance of Mini Games available after each search & find scene, such as, Spot The Difference, Word Search, Match Two and several different styles of puzzles, rotating tiles and putting together maps and pictures with different shaped pieces.
You can use the money you earn playing the game, in the Souvenir Shop to purchase 16 vacation park souvenirs, everything you purchase is kept in a display case in the Souvenir Room, and you can earn Achievements Badges as well, happy camping, enjoy!

What a sweet surprise to find Park Ranger 8! I think I may have yelled "whoopie" out loud! If you are like me, you have several if not all the previous games. If not, please give this one a try. I think this is great for the entire family.

What a sweet surprise to find Park Ranger 8! I think I may have yelled "whoopie" out loud! If you are like me, you have several if not all the previous games. If not, please give this one a try. I think this is great for the entire family.
There are new additions and attractions in the park this time and a new adventure for the kids. My demo time ran out at this point. I use too much time looking at all the sights and people, there is just so much to see everywhere. Even little things going on in the background, if you take time to look around. Very busy scenes with lots of visitors, little critters hanging out here and there, children having fun.
I absolutely love that real people, things and locations are photographed for the game. Have never understood that at least one family and a couple of rangers look created by computer, though, in each Ranger game.
Ranger 8 has the same games and recycle trash and find wildlife and we still earn our stars, also coins for shopping. Can replay any scene, any time as usual. There is a relaxed mode and a challenge mode. I like them both. Plain old fun!
This time I found the scenes much fuller with just about everything including visitors. I felt it made the HOs a little harder to locate which was great, for me. The graphics were so crystal clear, sharp, colorful and overflowing with good sightseeing stuff. A photographer's dream, perfect for the nature buff, fun for the family. Streams for fishing, wildlife all around, perfect for the artist.
That's why I never unpack! Maybe I'll see you there, lol.
God Bless.... Show less

Always anxious to get this one. An automatic buy, of course.
This time they are training new Rangers. Look for animals and still pickup the trash around the Camp. Love it.

I love the familiarity of the characters and getting immersed in their stories, it's the perfect way to relax. The games might be simple hidden object games but sometimes the objects are cleverly hidden giving a reasonable level of challenge. There are also word searches, spot the difference and puzzles to keep up the interest.
I always know these games are going to be good so they are the only ones I purchase without trying first.

I bought it first and played later. Knew I would love it. I love all of the Vacation, Holiday etc. put out by this team. I dont care for dark dreary stories, and finding objects and going back & forth to find where they are needed. Just straight Hogs for me.
