Engaging storyline. Reasonably sized and well hidden objects match scenes, with new items subtly appearing. No timer to detract from gameplay. Excellent minigames. Includes extras like informative articles, webcam of a bigfoot sighting, and concept art. Sparkles give a bit too much guidance.

I recommend this game!

When I get to the end of a demo, its either ohoh :((, or ahh :)) meaning I'm glad its over. I only buy if its ohoh. So I bought this one while it was a good sale. Lasted longer than I expected. Fun and engaging puzzles. Gotta be exact clicking on hidden objects! The ending.....oooh, a hint of truth?

I recommend this game!

I played this game early on when I first joined up with BFG and remember truly enjoying this game quite a bit despite my initial skepticism.... don't expect anything extremely challenging yet do look forward to a very pleasant and fun 'casual' game.

Please note: I'm bumping it up a bit #one star or so# with my rating because I think it deserves much more than it's been credited ...Show more

Why was this game entitled any thing to do with Bigfoot. The game had virtually very little to do with the mythical creature and any reference to the legend was finalised fairly early in the game. What the game was all about was the unveiling of shady actions relating to a chemical company's illegal dumping of waste materials and clandestine production of a secret elixir. The dialogue and voice overs were adequate enough to keep you abreast of the unfolding adventure and the graphics were colourful clear with plenty of detail. The puzzles and mini games were varied, with jig saw type games, maze games match 3 and loads more, all of which were reasonably easy to solve. The hidden objects were a little more challenging as they were found in up to three locations for each stanza and you had to switch back and forth constantly as the items on the list were revealed. Some were also very well hidden. This game is for staunch hidden object buffs but had precious little to do with Bigfoot. It was still quite a reasonable game, I liked it. Show less

I recommend this game!

The prologue is funny; watch the subtitles underneath the newcaster . There are voiceovers & I thought they suited the characters; some of the dialogue can be clicked through if you wish.

The graphics are clean & bright; the artwork is really nice, the music could be better but I liked the background noises. The screens are a little slow to load but not really a problem. There was a black band down each side of my widescreen.

This is a straight Hidden Object but not just lists; you have to find objects from both a list & from silhouettes & keep an eye out for arrows to go to another scene as you have to move around to find them. Some of the objects can be very small so I had to do a bit of squinting.

The mini games are fun & weren't too difficult to solve.

There are sparkles for objects of interest & rather a lot of hand holding in regard to objectives. The hint button recharges in around 1 minute.

As you go through the game you unlock Top Secret pages which give you the usual information about Bigfoot; later you can also unlock some of the Art Concepts which were an added bonus. Show less

I recommend this game!

I'll start by saying I enjoyed playing this game. The graphics are good, clear enough, good old days concept. The music was pleasant to my ears, It is an easy to play game, HO are all over the place but it's OK makes life more interesting! The storyline was OK not something that glues you to your seat but OK enough to get you through the game without committing to focus on the plot. Yes, there's still a mystery surrounding the creature called bigfoot or yeti and some could swear they actually saw it wandering in the thick forest trying to avoid human contact. It's OK for a story, beats newer game storylines about young girls getting kidnapped and you got to save them,
My suggestion: Watch the clip, play the demo, I think that for the daily deal even for a free credit you would love to own this game, Show less

I recommend this game!

This is a fun game but seemed a little short somehow - I was slightly disappointed at the ending...it seemed it was rushed at the end - maybe more in a sequel but then how can they call that bigfoot 2? Play the game to see why!
Graphics are good enough, challenges are just good enough to hold your attention but somehow it left me feeling it was missing something.

I got this game in 2010 when it first came out. Played it as a kid with my mom and sister, so I didn't fully understand what was going on half the time, haha. Regardless, this is a great game and I'm glad I revisited it!

I got this game in 2010 when it first came out. Played it as a kid with my mom and sister, so I didn't fully understand what was going on half the time, haha. Regardless, this is a great game and I'm glad I revisited it!

Pros:
-Primarily HOP scenes and not the traditional pick up item, use item format in more recent games.
-TONS of variety in puzzles with only a few repeats, spread evenly throughout the gameplay. Very enjoyable, try to complete them without skipping! Some can be a bit difficult.
-Built-in extras... and it's not a collector's edition! The Bigfoot facts were very interesting, as well as the little webcam clip at the end.
-Love the use of color and light in the areas!

Cons:
-Of course, this game's a bit dated since it came out nine years ago. Graphics are fairly pixelated, and some of the HOP scenes can be a bit repetitive.
-Some of the objects are very hard to find, and they're scattered across multiple areas. There's often no indication of if you've found all the items in an area or not, so that can be confusing.
-A bit short. This does have a fair length to it, but once you get to the real bit of plot towards the end, it goes very quickly.
-Very little story. Definitely not a creepy game like it might seem to be. More of a mystery story. Still, the variety in gameplay made up for the short story.

Try to buy this game with a coupon code or a credit. It's a wonderful little game that you can spend an hour or two on. Definite buy for me! Show less

I recommend this game!

This game was very tedious. A lot of the HOs were so tiny and obscure that they were impossible to find. Had to use the Hint a lot. One thing I really hated was the fact that when I had to log off, when I returned to the game, I had to start each segment over. That's really aggravating and boring. I somewhat recommend this game.
