There's something about Vacation Adventures that always brings a smile to my face. 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!

There's something about Vacation Adventures that always brings a smile to my face. 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! A few days ago, I wrote a review for an old fashioned HO game, and I stated that a HOG can still be relevant, and that good HOG's exist, and this is what I was referring to! 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 items such as 20 non-human mammals. Each scene has several wildlife animals to find that are shown as silhouettes in a box to the left of the word search bar, when all 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, 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 12 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!

I totally love these Park Ranger adventures, and this one, is, if possible, even better than the 6 that went before it.
Exceptionally sharp and beautiful photography. You get to learn something of the critters that live in the wild, and relax to the folksy music. This is one hop lovers should never miss!

I recommend this game!

This is my 7th vacation there! I've been so "down in the dumps" for far too long with no new SE games worthy of $$ or coupon, but this perked me right up!

This is my 7th vacation there! I've been so "down in the dumps" for far too long with no new SE games worthy of $$ or coupon, but this perked me right up!

The Park Ranger games are so full of great HOs, mini games, puzzles, collecting litter, earning stars and achievements, and you can go shopping with your earned coins in the park's gift shop. Just so much to do, so much enjoyment with this game.

There's wildlife scenery and beautiful nature all around, lots of people visting the park, and the rangers going about their duties. The graphics are excellent and filled with lots to see. I love the many little things to see and activities going on in the background of each scene. These details make the game even more special.

Park Ranger 7, as the previous 6 installments, is a superb hidden object game that everyone can enjoy. No scary stuff here!! Try it out! you won't be disappointed if you are a HOG fan. I hope Vacation Adventures Park Ranger has a long future with Big Fish.

No surprises, but, good, relaxing fun. Reconnected with some "old" friends :). Love this series and the Cruise Director series as well. An automatic buy for me. Have fun!

I have purchased all the previous games, so this was a "buy before I try." Not disappointed! The story is great and I love seeing the changes in the park and seeing familiar faces too! It's like the vacations of my youth when we went to Arkansas every year. I am curious - does anyone know if the guests are the actual puzzle makers? They are not drawn like the staff characters.

I have purchased all the previous games, so this was a "buy before I try." Not disappointed! The story is great and I love seeing the changes in the park and seeing familiar faces too! It's like the vacations of my youth when we went to Arkansas every year. I am curious - does anyone know if the guests are the actual puzzle makers? They are not drawn like the staff characters. Anyway, if you are new to this game, it isn't a play once and forget it. The lists change every time you start a scene. I hope the cruise ship one is coming, or maybe they should do a safari (photos, no hunting.) Or a zoo. Show less

I love these park rangers adventures and buy them without even playing the demo. Granted these follow the same format as the others - hidden objects and mini games (something I'm not enthusiastic about) but love the scenery and the game overall. Hope they keep them coming.

I recommend this game!

Been waiting for the next ranger game to come out. I love these HO games they make you feel like your right in the park with the rest of the visitors. You learn about the animals in some of the puzzles. And I like the idea of finding the recycles to keep the park clean. I have all 6 games now. these games are so relaxing and fun. Now waiting for the next adventure cruise game to come out. I never get tired or bored playing these games over again. Keep up the good work on these games. The scenes are great they are so pretty. Just never know whats going to happen in each level someone might get hurt or fall off their bike or there is some kind of contest. it is great. Show less

I own all these. It;s an automatic buy when I see them. So cool. Feels like you're there for real. Love the puzzles in between scenes. Look for the animals and cleanup trash as you go. Would be greater if they were monthly. Always a good price too.

I recommend this game!
