I just made a comment a couple of days ago, on my review of the Amazing Vacation game, that developers needed to ditch the cliche objects they repeatedly use that have nothing to do with the game's theme. Nature Escapes is a perfect example of how to do a HOG justice! Although they still use a few random, non-related objects, those objects are rustic variations that fit in perfectly with nature-theme...it's incredible what can be accomplished when a developer goes the extra mile and uses their creative imagination!
The graphics are not only beautiful but crystal clear even when you zoom in or use the Magnifying Glass features! This is the only HO game I know of that mastered the art of Zoom. You can scroll to enlarge the scene or use the Magnifying Glass to search small areas, and the best part is that a simple right-click prompts the magnifier, which doesn't disappear once you find an object like most games...and all you have to do is right-click a second time to flick it away instantly. You can also zoom the entire scene & use the magnifier even within the Zoom Zones, a feature many devs tend to overlook. In reality, most HO fans are aging, and in my opinion, this is a must-have feature!
There are no Timers or Misclick penalties, but you will earn more points for making fast consecutive finds (Combo x1, x2, x3, x4, etc.), and you'll earn more points if you don't use the Hint feature. Even though you aren't racing against the clock, you will earn a Gold, Silver, or Bronze Star depending on how many points you earn, so making combos is vital if you want to earn the Gold Star.
Each scene has a Hidden Photo that converts to Coins that allows you to purchase 20 Plants & Flowers in the My Garden Section. You can even choose where to place the plants or select multiple's of the same plant (multiples don't require coins). You can click the Camera icon to take a picture of your arrangement and set them as wallpaper. I wish you could place the plants in any arrangement versus placing them on preset snap points, such as grouping a set of plants together.
Each scene also has 3 Shapeshifting, Morphing Objects that are incredibly well blended. They morph at a perfect pace and can be quite challenging to spot! (morphs can appear in Zoom Zones too) Each Morph found converts to a flower you can plant in the wild in the Nature Album. Each flower planted is worth 3 Puzzle Pieces that can be dragged to the correct place and then set as wallpaper on your computer (18 Wildflowers total).
The Mini-games are nature-related as well. I love the Spot The Difference games, but I really loved the puzzle where you had to swap Circles & Squares and then rotate them. The first one was a forest image with a stream, which was more challenging than I had expected! They also have a Flower Painting game where you swipe to fill in sections with color. After the picture is completed, the colors morph into a very detailed image, and I would like to be able to paint all of the details versus having them show up after I fill in basic colors.
I'm still going to keep urging this developer to include a Strategy Guide showing the location of the Morphing Objects. I love the challenge, but some of them are difficult to spot, so it would be wonderful to be able to check the SG when a morph proves to be too challenging. Technically, they could add a Hint button for the morphs, but I'd prefer a less tempting option of having to look at the SG.
COLLECTOR'S EDITION EXTRAS:
18 Scene Locations (both versions), +6 Bonus Locations, 12 Bonus Mini-games, 24 Wallpapers (18 wallpapers in the SE version), 10 Dev Plants, Bonus Plants, 11 Music Soundtracks, 72 Shapeshifting Morphs (54 in the SE version), 24 Hidden Photos (18 in the SE version) 20 Flowers & Plants to purchase & place (15 in the SE version-multiples of plants can be selected), 24 Flower Fun Facts (18 in the SE version).

My game freezes and I have to open my task manager to close it. Also, the scenes are a repeat of the the scenes in the original. Very disappointed.
I don't recommend this game.
