Community Insight:
This is an older game, but honestly, except for graphics quality and a few bells and whistles, the older games were better! There is no teleporting map, so if that is a deal breaker, this game is not for you. The story is interesting, the puzzles take some time and thought and there are a lot of them, and they are quite varied. Also lots of HOS, which are all revisited. So much to do, not the usual find amulet, insert amulet, repeat. Although you do that as well lol. The game is very long, and the bonus game is longer than many of todays main games! The graphics are not as vivid, but the developers put in lots of cool touches, such as leaves blowing by, etc., that make you feel immersed in the game. We experienced no glitches. Real rating 4.5 bumped up to 5 for being a true delight to play.
Excellent game! Love the challenges, music, graphics, mini games and the ever changing rooms.
One of our favorites so far visually! Lots of areas to explore. Loved it.
Loved it!!! Nice change from the same old plots. Game played well on our iPad. Hidden Object Scenes were lists or placement into the scene. Graphics were clear and colorful. Great change of pace. Not much running all over the map (that's good not one) so was pretty easy to know where to go next. We usually get bored with most games and usually quit before the end of the game. Looking forward to perhaps finishing this one.
A lot of detail has been put into this games. The answers aren't easily given, each game is slightly different and the setting in Thailand is wonderful.
This game has a few surprises we won't spoil. It's worth giving it a try. Enjoying the scenery. We purchased this game and felt it was worth it.
Not what we expected, different from the games.
It was a pleasant and peaceful game, and we enjoyed it once it finally booted up. A little frustrating not having a map, or that the Hint only told you that there was nothing to do in the scene. No other clue. Some games were fun, but others went on and on with no resolution in sight. We skipped more games than we finished out of frustration. The Bonus Game was a let down. After it finally booted up and getting to the second scene and back to the fist, every touch of the screen would kick you out completely to our home screen. Therefore, having to reboot and watch the elephant walking for a few minutes. Why we kept trying over and over beats us. Same outcome each time. Needless to say, needs tweaks and work to improve. Let us know when you get it fixed so we can finish.
A good game, nice graphics and beautiful scenery., easy to follow the flow of the story….like the changing rooms too, a nice touch ..and the HO games, a few new tricks..nice! Not having teleport in this game not so bad, as seems not that many locations, and got to be fun trying to remember how to get from place to place. Now the bad part: as others have said, crashes often…probably had to restart the game 15 times or more. It went back to where we left off, so that at least was good.. Mini games: some would just not work well, and frustrated, we skipped more than we wanted to; trying to move the little marble so the bad glowing marbles don't get yours….and your marble won't move no matter how many ways you try to move it,,,and down it goes..FRUSTRATING!. For ourselves, There were a few games like that: objects would not move easily,,,,sticky like,,,so it was difficult to work it out and complete the game. Maybe that is just us or our iPad…don't know. We too was annoyed with the "solve the puzzle" bit, ,then finally noticed another button said ."instructions" …and there were good instructions. We tried to use the guide twice, …would not go there, just crashed., So..we liked the game a lot, but some improvements would help,,,,,thanks.
This SHOULD have been a 5 star game, but unfortunately for a couple of issues, we are deducting a couple of stars. First let's focus on the positive aspects. The story was interesting. The graphics were magnificent, and the cut-scenes were mesmerizing. There was a helpful journal. The HO scenes were mostly word lists, or returning things to their proper places, and then you had to get the final item. Inventory was labeled, but no plus items to assemble. In certain locations you could change the illumination, and thus time travel in order to gain more inventory. So that facet was very interesting. Also there were certain magical artifacts that could be transformed by giving them to stone statues with the proper symbol. Loading was instantaneous between locations. The game was very long and had a lengthy bonus adventure. The puzzles/mini-games were numerous, but a lot were rotational (not our favorite.) There were no collectibles, which was just fine with us! We hate distractions. Orneon, we deducted the stars for the following reasons: firstly the game kept shutting down. We never lost progress and was able to complete it, but the glitches were annoying! Secondly, there was NO MAP, TELEPORT or otherwise. This game really needed it! For those of us who are lazy, it was a ton of running back and forth. The hint system only said to search elsewhere. With all of these sophisticated games, why wasn't this game better tested and why was there no map? At least you didn't torture us with RATS, but we are not going to add a star for that! Truthfully most of the Dream Team will be annoyed without the map. It's too bad, because the game itself was really good! It was also beautiful! BigFish, please do not give us games without marked teleport maps! Most of us are lazy and hate running back and forth! Lynxie sends love to Dracyy, KimT, Snooper and the rest of the team.
Playing on iPad. Initially, all sound just turned off even though we set that up. Closed and reopened game, problem went away. We experienced no game crashes. Most of the graphics are well rendered, and the hidden objects are cleverly hidden. Easy to follow along as far as figuring out what to do next. Three star review because all interactive puzzles simply say "solve the puzzle." Gee, if we knew what needed to be done, it would have helped. No map, bummer on that! If hint selected in an area, it simply says "there is nothing here to do." we do need help sometimes, and not having it takes away from the fun. Excellent directional arrows (to navigate game), and the music is actually nice. With a few changes, this game would be awesome.
With no map, or teleporting, this game was a nightmare to play. It became very difficult to figure out where to go next, and the hints were the worst of any game we have ever played. Found ourselves, which we hated to do, relying too much on the strategy guide to get us out of clueless spots. We would not recommend the game, and would not buy any other from this developer.
This looks like it might be a decent game but it's hard to tell since it crashes every time we interact with anything.
Game keeps shutting down, tried shutting off and re boot twice still shuts down.
We have never been so disappointed in any of the games we bought but this one is the most disappointing game Ive played you cant really find what you need and when you use hint it tells you theres nothing in this room what is the point of using hint of it doesnt help you in anyway and it would be great if it had a map to bad we cant get another game for what we paid for this.
Just setting the game up, we hit the first glitch. We turned the sounds off, but it stayed on. Then it SEEMED to be off, but keeps coming on. We can't get past that because the sound is very annoying. Fix it! Well, here's an update. Developers haven't even bothered to read and address the issues people have pointed out in their reviews! We tried it again in Aug. 2016, and it STILL isn't fixed. The sound continues to come on. They haven't bothered to fix the game, but they they still want top dollar for it! Nope! Update2: It's now November, 2017, and they STILL havent fixed it! Why would we PAY for something that's defective, even if it IS on sale? Duh.
No matter how challenging we never give up on a game, but we the in the towel on this one. Clues are vague to the point of nonexistent. No map, bad "hint" button. Waste of time and money.
We also thought that since the game was re-released that the glitches had been fixed. We did not purchase it the first time because of the bad reviews. The reviews were not posted the second time and we purchased the game. Unfortunately the game is unplayable because of the constant crashing. We feel cheated and am switching to G5.
Crashes! And then crashes again.
Can't get past the first few tasks. Crashes constantly. Please fix. Graphics are beautiful and looks like a great game please fix.
We bought this game a month or so ago but couldn't play because it kept crashing. When we saw they re-released it we were hopeful that they had worked out the problem. We were wrong It crashes immediately. Don't understand why you're selling games that don't work.
Crashed the first three times we tried to play. Have deleted and reloading. Will update review if we are able to play it. Graphics are beautiful. Hope it works.
