This game definitely grows on you, and it's the perfect game to start out the week with because it's an easy breezy game that doesn't require a lot of effort to enjoy. The story intrigues me, a young woman receives a frantic phone call from a stranger stating that her missing sister Sophia is alive, but is the victim of cruel experimentations by The Oracle's of Doom! This could very well be a trap, but Julia has been left no choice, she must try to save her sister at any cost. When she arrives at the lab, something even more bizarre occurs, what she thought was just a recurring nightmare, turns out to be real life visions. Has she been here before, are these her memories or is her sister communicating with her somehow? Who are these evil men dressed in black apocalyptic style clothing and what are these experiments for?

Even though this is only a Standard Edition, there are 10 Oracle's Emblems to collect and 9 missing Diary Pages to find, which also gives some insight to Sophie's state of mind during her captivity by the Oracles, and shed's light upon the storyline. I really liked the first Greed (mad scientist) but this is a completely different storyline, and from what I could tell has no bearing on this game. Inventory items are easy to find, and are usually used within the same scene or shortly thereafter, and most tasks are logical so you will probably know exactly where to use an inventory item.

The Hidden Object Scenes are clear, and the objects themselves are easily identifiable, but not every item is easily found. There are good old fashioned list finds with several items requiring some type of interaction, usually just clicking on an object to move it which exposes the object you are looking for. There are also Hidden Object Scenes requiring you to find objects that match a silhouetted shape shown, and dark scenes where you must find listed objects with a flashlight, one of the scenes was repeated, but had a different type of search the second time around. The Mini Games are fairly easy, most of them are the type that when you select one, others are affected such as rotating square tiles to complete an image, when you click on one tile, others move as well, or selecting the correct combination on a lock, when you rotate one dial, others move as well.

There aren't a lot of bells and whistles, but this is a decent game with pretty good graphics, well done voiceovers, entertaining Hidden Object Scenes and clever Mini Games. There are Collectible Oracle Emblems and missing Diary Pages to go along with an interesting story, enjoy! Show less

I recommend this game!

I saw this game on a different site who I don't deal with, and I was one happy camper to see it here. This is the second Greed game, the first being Greed: The Mad Scientist. The VO's in this game are done extremely well. The cutscenes are done very well also. There is a couple of collectibles in the game. Ten purple oracle discs, and nine pages of Sophia's diary. You start collecting those when you go to the lab. I have not ran into a map yet, so I don't know if we get one or not.

Story: You play as Julia who starts out with having a bad dream where you are being abducted by these 'Oracles'. the look guys in black wet suits and gas masks. After you wake up, you receive a call from a man who's asking you about a package. In it is a letter stating that your sister is alive and that you need to get to a lab to rescue her. According to Sophia, she said she was being treated well, but didn't look it when you saw her. They say she is the 'special one', and they want to keep her alive. Well off we go to rescue her. And this is where the rest of the story continues. Very interesting so far.

Graphics: Awesome. I really love the 3D graphics. It makes the characters look so much more lifelike.

Music: Done very well. Adds to the creepiness factor of the game. You get the goosebumps every now and then.

Mini Games: Not too hard or easy, just right for me. I am truly enjoying them.

Hint System: I tested it out on my demo game in a H0G for this review, and it shows you on the blue words exactly what you have to do. On the outside it shows you what where to go or what item to use for the area in question. Note: On the games I am going to play all the way through, I don't use the hints.

H0GS: So far I only ran into lists with the blue words for the extra step. I don't know if they will have different ones or not.

Again, all in all this is one fantastic game. Kudos to the team! Show less

I recommend this game!

Time is running out because you need your sister and she requires an antidote to restore her memory. You must figure out how to accomplish the mission and save the day. This point and click adventure plays like a CE and leads you to believe there will be a third installment when you conclude the game. Brilliant voice acting and sound effects. I recommend this for all levels of players. Thanks Bigfish for this gem. xox's Show less

What a treat! Julia is trying to save her sister from something sinister. But it becomes complicated. This game has clear, crisp graphics, engaging sound, and an interesting plot line. I haven't finished it yet, but I just had to write a review to let the pond know how very happy this game has made me. This is a refreshing change from what I have played lately. Do try it!

For an SE, this game receives a lab quality grade of 100% perfection! I LOVE this game by our little Urchins. The graphics and there are a few extra goodies as well. The HOP scenes vary between junk piles and silhouette, the puzzles are mechanically based, and there is an equal amount of puzzles and HOP scenes. The storyline is decent Having nothing of interest to play from last week from this site, I will definitely purchase this one with a coupon. To me, it is as good as many of our CE offerings.

You play Julia, whose sister, Sophia was kidnapped as a child for research by the Oracles. Your quest is to locate her and save her from danger. You find out your sister is the "special" one in the family (every family has their "fair-haired" child LOL), and has been chosen by the Oracles. She is special because she can help then attain their goals. Where is your sister and what is being done to her at this laboratory? You will be taking quite a trip in this lab.

LEVELS: 3
Normal (Sparkles)
Hard (No sparkles) Can skip puzzles
Detective: Longer hint times

GRAPHICS: Excellent with voice overs and mouth movements.

HOP SCENES: I encountered 3 in the demo. Two were slightly interactive junk piles and one was silhouette.

PUZZLES: Excellent and more mechanical - at least the ones I encountered in the demo.

EXTRA GOODIES: Unusual for an SE.
Collect 10 oracle symbols
There is NO MAP but you have a clipboard with objectives

After a hard day - it was a nice Grumpy Monday surprise to see this game! Thanks BF! Show less

I recommend this game!

I really enjoyed this game,the storyline was a bit boring but the graphics and puzzles were really good.
If you like a game that involves puzzle solving and using your brain then this is the game for you.
The only downfall was that there is'nt a map.
Length of game play was quite long for a none collectors edition.

I recommend this game!
