Community Insight:
A but older technologically, but extremely long and well written.
This is a creepy story with lots of interactive and creative touches. Im enjoy playing Fear for Sale games, and this one does not disappoint.
Very good game with a lot of interaction.
Enjoy the game. But Im upset we been charged for this game we already purchased before! You seem to charge us twice not right at all! Anyone else been charged twice for this game , or others games they already purchased? Im sure you have. Because big fish did this to us a couple of times! Im frustrated. Big fish greedy grabbers.
Overall fun and challenging but not tedious mini games. Our major problem is the translucent blue back button in the center of the screen. It interfered in several of the games, especially HOPs. It would also have been nice to have sort of companion like other EleFun games. Ive played a lot of these sorts of games while sheltering in place and we like EleFun games the best. Thanks for what you do. (we hope that by the time someone reads this the whole idea of sheltering in place is far back in the rear view mirror.).
We are enjoying this game. Interesting story. Will reserve the fifth star in case it freezes up as have the last two Big Fish games we have downloaded. So frustrating. Good graphics. Nice mix of puzzles and hops.
Nice length and a good mix of Mimi games.
This game seems like an old one because of the dialogue. There's no way to skip it. You have to keep hitting the "continue" to get through it. We find that annoying. The map is okay, though the exclamation point is often confusing because it's between two locations. The circle, we guess, tells you which area it's referring to. The HO scenes are okay. The puzzles are okay, though somewhat easy.
Has glitches, and it won't let you restart.
