Community Insight:
Hands down one of the best big fish games we've played in ages, and we play a lot! Totally innovative, one of a kind. Nothing boring or tedious about this game. Mini games are wonderful and there is a slew of them, even the hidden object portions are mini games and they are totally unique. Love the special abilities portion of this game as well as the story line. We wish there were more like this.
Amazing game. This game had great graphics, puzzles, character interaction was mostly between Samantha and Kevin, since both were the key players. Agent Eric came near the end and there wasn't much dialogue needed between the two. Love the ending. Hope to see more games from this group, even a sequel. Well worth the price.
We just started this but it's not a typical fairy tale adventure. This is realistic Don't download if u have any kidnapped children b/c it will give them hope that they can escape.
BF games does it again! Great story, great game! Wish it was a bit longer, but that's how it always is.
We loved this game's vivid imagery and cool storylines. Top notch! Where's the sequel.
Loved it! One of the best hidden object games we've played. We didn't want it to end :(.
We play a lot of Mystery games. This is by far one of the best ones. It's put together really smart. We enjoyed playing it and was sorry it was over. We hope the makers of this one do another.
Every game that we have played, we have loved. We wish there was a way to earn points or money to pay for some of the games. It gets a little pricey.
Great game easy to follow good story line.!'.
We have to say that we loved this game. They were able to change up the mini-games and the HOS so that it wasn't just the same-old-same. The one really irritating thing was the stupid arrows flashing all the time. We get it, we realize where we're supposed to go developers. They also put the arrow over a couple of areas that we needed to touch. Super annoying…but an amazingly good game anyway.
We had a problem with getting the candle out of an anvil, in the treehouse. We were finally able to do it, and the rest of the game was wonderful. The bonus game was on par with the regular game. The regular game was about 4 times as long as the bonus, and the bonus took us several hours. This is a must have game. We can't wait to see if the come out with a second chapter! If they do, we will be one of the first to purchase it.
Great app,great story line,very addicting,recommended.
This is the new model for this genre of vid game. Instead of just finding items in a heap of stuff, the "Find an use" should be the new standard. Great game. Music, flow storyline and all.
Totally rocks for the $2.99 price tag. Great story lines, great graphics, mini games and game play.
Adventure and clever puzzles. Awesome storyline, easy to navigate. It is perfection. Please make more like this.
One of the top of our favorite games. Good story and pictures.
We always read Kamens advice. He's always right. Great game.
Followers, Short but brief review: Game is enjoyable with no major faults or glitches. Challenging HO's & games, intriguing plot, nice bonus chapter. Like the twist on what one looks for when it comes to "collectibles" too. This "adventure" is a winner that one could pay full price for if so inclined to do so. Kudos to developers by the way, because unfortunately they are not known for consistently producing high quality games… Thank you for your continued support. ~Kamen Rider.
Hi we've played this game before but we tried it on our phone and it isn't framed properly, so you cant see any of the buttons on the home screen :((.
We love we play it everyday we get all the achievements we never skip a puzzle cant wait for paranormal 2 hopefully the guide is in the game and not is some other app.
We really enjoyed playing so far we haven't bought the full version as of yet but we plan to. So far love it. HOG'S are great and the story line is great so far as well.
We love Big Fish games. We always enjoy playing the hidden object games. This one was great UNTIL we got to the treehouse and can't pick the candle up. We tap on it and it just keeps telling us "The sword that goes in the middle is missing". VERY annoying!! Otherwise so far it's a great game. So we only gave it four stars. Please fix this glitch.
This is a fun game. We like being able to use different characters to help out at certain points. We would have given it five stars if it was longer.
Interesting premise, long game play. A bit too much back and forth, but overall a good game. Looking forward to the next one.
Played on iPhone 5 and this game is better adapted for phones than most. We did go backward by accident numerous times as well as go to the guide by accident (the control was placed badly, above the inventory.) However, the HOGs were extremely well designed. We like the "find and use" object type far better than the "heap o' random crap" variety. Like another reviewer we had a helluva time picking up that candle in the tree house; resorted to guide to confirm that we were supposed to pick it up and jabbed it a bunch of times. It kept telling us something about a sword instead of giving us the candle already. Consider fixing this maddening glitch in an upgrade. Story very well done, held our interest. Solid and very engaging bonus chapter switched from woman saves little boy to man saves little girl. Challenging even on casual mode; in that mode the hints could sometimes be more helpful.
This was a very different game than we are used to playing. But we really enjoyed it and we like how we interacted with the game. Can't wait for more to come.
It was a fantastic game till we got to the treehouse we cant pick up the candle very frustrating.
We love these games, play so many all the time, but although we had high hopes in the beginning, so we purchased the full one, we were kinda let down by the end. They seemed to have done what a good chunk of these games do sometimes and lured us in with this really amazing story, but it seemed like about 1/3 the way through, it was just about the puzzles and what not, and not at all about the story. By the end the devs didn't even seen to try wrapping up the plot and making us feel like we had a story. Spoiler*** What happened with the abusive fake dad guy and the crooked cops? Nothing.
We enjoyed the game but thought it could have been longer, more in depth, harder & more complicated mini games.
We liked this game up until the orphanage part where you have to search for items in the treehouse. It will not let us put the candle into inventory and we've noticed this issue has been happening since November or earlier. Please fix this or refund our money.
We previously rated this 5 stars bc the graphics and animation are wonderful, the HO games are the more interesting "find and use" kind, the main and extra games feature a female and male protagonist respectively, and the purpose is to protect powerfully psychic kids. However, we can now only give it 3 stars max bc upon replaying this game, once you get to the garden at the city archives bldg, an annoying ad covers the inventory for 4 of every 5 seconds, leaving just 1 second to locate and apply the item you want. PLEASE take this out of what used to be one of our favorite BF games. Can't recommend it anymore, even if it were to go on sale.
Would give more stars if it didn't have the one glitch at the tree house with the candle. However, after FINALLY being able to pick it up and moving forward with the game. We enjoyed it. This is the first game that vibe had such an issue picking up items.
Got to the extra game and it froze up at the hidden object part. Could not get it to play after that. And there seems to be others that have the same problem.
Ok – HOS, puzzles, etc are good. However, there was no interaction with Kevin or Agent Eric. It was a lot of running around to finish next step. The only time interaction with Kevin or Eric happened was when the child welfare lady needed their help. You never really found out anything about Kevin except for some lame explanation about the Senator & psychic kids. The storyline was disjointed & frankly ridiculous. The Bonus game made more sense & there was much more interaction with Eric & the girl. It wasn't to glitchy. But we too had an issue with "grabbing the candle from the anvil" in the tree house HOS. All we can say is try shutting off your phone & restarting it. We were able to grab the candle after we rebooted our iPhone 6+. It was fun enough to play.
The purchase process was drug out for 3 days bc of App Store vs Google Play. Then when we could finally play it and did. So we got a new phone and had to go through the whole email back and forth, phone calls, wait wait AGAIN!!! And could get NO UPDATES!! Inconvenient FOR SURE.
Won't let us buy full version!! It says "Network connection unavailable!!" But how can our network be unavailable when we on the App Store right now buying other games, etc. Please fix.
We can't pick the candle up either and am now stuck. Other than that it was pretty fun game.
This issue has been brought up by people again and again, going back as far as seven years ago. It has never been fixed. Somehow some people have been able to get past it after trying a long time. Someone please tell us how to do that. We cant proceed any further in the game because of this glitch.
Downloaded this on our 12 pro max and the game will not fit to screen!! It is very zoomed in and we can even play.
Please format this game for iPhone 12 mini.
We cant even get the game to start on our iPhone. Ive deleted and downloaded it multiple times. The screen size looks off. As thought Im only seeing a piece of the screen that doesnt include anything Im supposed to touch to get started. So frustrating.
We are so upset that this turned out to be a bust as we cannot remove the candle in the tree house to move on in the game (glitch).
Downloaded this and Cadenza Kiss game and one of those put a isplash invitation at the bottom in our mail page in iPhone.
We downloaded this game, and really enjoyed it until we reached a point in the game that does not allow you to move forward (taking the candle in the tree house). After researching this issue online, we saw that MANY people had posted about this issue, and the fact that it still exists for new downloads is unacceptable. Don't download. It's more frustrating than it's worth.
Please fix the glitch that makes it impossible to get the candle. Have tried everything. That, or refund our money.
We're stuck at the tree house and cannot remove the candle as well. It's either a glitch or we're missing something. This needs to be fixed or if it's operator error on our part, someone please point us in the right direction.
It will not allow us to unlock the full version. It says our purchase was complete but will not unlock.
