Do the games start to change a little bit ? At least, little by little, step by step ?
This is a standard edition with morphing objects and ...a lot of them . At options, we have very few choises which is OK with me, for example no time meter for hint and skip buttons which I never understood the point, as you could hit the buttons whenever you were wishing too.

Do the games start to change a little bit ? At least, little by little, step by step ?
This is a standard edition with morphing objects and ...a lot of them . At options, we have very few choises which is OK with me, for example no time meter for hint and skip buttons which I never understood the point, as you could hit the buttons whenever you were wishing too.
Another addition is that the scenes you have something to do, do not dissappear when you have something more to do but they do not allow us to take more objects if it is not the right time for the object to be used. It took me some time to realize that but then I found it tricky and fun.
I used the hint button a lot but when I started to realize the new tasks the demo ended. I am sure I will enjoy the game a lot. It is a buy for me .
I hope we will see more games with new ideas Show less

I recommend this game!

The graphics are up to Elephant's usual standard of excellence, and it has an interesting and challenging story to work through.

We need far, far more of this type game as opposed to the onslaught of "Find this, find that, play ancient minigames" that charge double the price of this excellent choice.

So if you are looking for a game that goes beyond being "soothing" to relax with and, at the same time, require you to wear the old thinking cap ---- here you go.
(Hints are limitless and immediate, and skips are available for puzzles) Show less

This game was so much fun to play. Yes, there are almost no options but there's also no use the cork to open the drawer.
This game was LONG. The mini-games were unique but playable. I really had to use my mind. There is quite a bit of back and forth but that is because when you complete one task it opens new opportunities in places you might have explored.

I was NOT expecting much from this game..bought it on a 2-fer day. Am PLEASANTLY surprised! The game - for a non-CE edition - was long, involved and NOT easy (I ended up using that 'hint' button WAY more than usual)
Love the graphics, artwork, characters and, basically, all the visuals.
Do I recommend giving this one a try? Absolutely!
KUDOS to the developer..hope to see more from you!

I recommend this game!

I played through the entire game and enjoyed it and also collected all the morphing objects but when I got to the extras was shown a short intriguing video then was sent back to menu. Nothing. It offers a play button on the extras but it then inevitably goes back to menu. Could this have possibly been designed as a CE without the CE added scenes?

I recommend this game!

Pack up your coat, snowshoes and head out to Frostwood. You will not get a warm welcome here! Creatures are roaming the streets, kidnapping people and freezing out the people within the town. Help defeat these evildoers and restore order to this burg.

Welcome to a new gaming concept for Elephant. This game is different than their other games. I have not finished this game; however, I am enjoying it. I find it hard to believe this game was created by Elephant as it is different from anything I have played from them before. To me, it is more of an adventure game.

There are pros and cons to this game. There are no voiceovers. There is no strategy guide. The player cannot adjust the size of the screen for the game as well. I found this rather irritating because one must exit the game if you need to use the screen for other activities.

However, I thought the graphics were much better than their other games. The puzzles are much more difficult. The game itself is puzzlelike. The collectibles are morphing objects - 96 of them. All must be collected before the extra material for the game is released at the end of the game.

There is a map which allows the player to see if all the collectibles have been collected. Unlike other games, the player can return to any of the game scenes throughout the game. The scenes are not closed. The collectibles are not easy to locate and there is no specific item to search for. There are several of them per scene as well.

Should I play or stay away? If you enjoy playing adventure games, you may enjoy this one. You certainly cannot beat the price! If you like playing mostly HOP scenes, this is not a game for you. If you like a little more challenging game with harder puzzles, you may enjoy this game. Puzzles can be skipped if they seem too difficult. If you don’t care if you have voiceovers and do not mind reading script throughout the game, then this is a little gem for the price.

I would like to see more of this type of game from Elephant Games. However, the only thing I would change would be ability to adjust the size of the screen for the game. I don’t believe this game needs a strategy guide. If you look long enough you can find the collectibles. And since you can return to scenes, you can search repeatedly to find them. I am not certain what the “extras” are within this game. It appears there are more puzzles to play and perhaps additional items I am not aware of. Show less

I recommend this game!
