I love these games, after playing a really hard game I like to play these to detox my brain. Spoiler alert: there are "little critters" in ALL 59 levels except 49 (or at least I couldn't find it). Although some of them are hard to identify. I'm not sure what the first critter was, it looked like a snowball with red cherries! The others were a Blue Clam with White Pearl, a Purple Bird, a Green Frog ...Show more

This is a fun game to play for relaxing after a stressful day. Yes it's a bit simple and the graphics aren't the best, but very enjoyable and not too challenging.

I recommend this game!

I was feeling sort of depressed after I'd run through all the Emily games, the Gardens Inc. series...and along came Gnomes Garden: Lost King Collector's Edition. Very surprised by the mixed reviews. I almost passed on a very exciting, fun game except one review convinced me to try it. Within ten minutes I was addicted, I love this game and will now get the entire series. I love the strategy ...Show more

I enjoy this series. and for those that aren't aware, you can use the scroll wheel on your mouse to zoom in for a closer look. I thought that the change in graphics was nice and the extra levels and awards were a worthwhile addition.Good also for those that prefer an easy mouse click game.

I recommend this game!

Out of all the Gnomes games this was my favorite. I thought the overall look of it seemed freshened up from previous versions, I like the hidden characters and the additional 10 levels that wasn't apparent to me until I finished level 49. It was fairly easy to beat levels with three stars consistently so the challenge level was low but great way to pass the time.

I recommend this game!

Yes, the game had no challenge ... I had to redo only 2 levels to get 3 stars. Restarted a few when I used resources in the wrong order.
Yes, graphics are small ... luckily I have 27" monitor or would not have found all 59 critters ... unfortunately there is no indication if you found it or not so seems like a pointless exercise. (Note to Me-Too-2: on level 49 it's in the very bottom center ...Show more

As I played the game I was baffled why it was a Collector's Edition. Finding critters didn't make it a CE for me. And the EXTRAS were Music & Concept Art. After finishing the original 49 levels a new area opened up with an additional 10 levels. AH HA moment.
All that being said, I had a delightful time playing the game. Sometimes one needs a break from the head banging challenges of other TM games. Show less

I love the Gnome Gardens series. I wish they would come out faster. I like the extra levels. I was wondering how to fill all the awards. I would like to know if I got all the characters.

Actually, I kinda like this game. It is, as others have said, a bit samey but this edition does have some collectables. Spoiler alert, tiny little pearls (called 'animals' by Gnomes Garden) which I didn't even notice until I clicked on one when I got to level 17. So when I've finished all 49 levels, I've got to go back and find the ones I've missed. They're not in every level and quite difficult ...Show more

Spoiler alert, tiny little pearls (called 'animals' by Gnomes Garden) which I didn't even notice until I clicked on one when I got to level 17. So when I've finished all 49 levels, I've got to go back and find the ones I've missed. They're not in every level and quite difficult to see when you're doing other things. The buildings are obvious when you hover your cursor over them as this brings up a description of each one and the materials needed to build them.

I found the graphics decent and improved from previous versions although I am looking at the game 3 feet away from a 32 inch curved HD screen.

I bought the game when my 60 minutes free time ran out using the offer of the day but it is not really worth the title 'Collectors Edition'. If I hadn't got it for this discounted price, I would have waited for the SE to come out. Show less

I recommend this game!

I liked the game enough to buy it because I am starved for TM games. It really would be a fine game if there was a little challenge to it. Please add a hard setting or even better, easy, med and hard. After all you are supposed to manage your time to win. The way I made it more interesting was to set up a rule that I had to upgrade everything to the max level before finishing the game. Thanks

I recommend this game!
