Community Insight:
Havent played a hidden objects in a long time.
We love the great artwork and simple plot line of this straightforward game. Bad guy is doing evil deeds for profit – theres no family curse or back-from-the-dead madman or any of that nonsense. Im finding the HOPs a little tough but, with perseverance, we can usually find the needed items. Puzzles are different from the same old same old and that is refreshing too. This feels like an older game and, for once, that feels nice.
We loved this game! Went very quickly, everything fell into place. Hidden objects were easy to find, needed to use skip button a couple of times on the games. Recommend highly, nice storyline.
This game held our interest to the end.
Really enjoying this game. Teleporting map and multiple collectibles are appreciated.
Really good game and no glitches.
Great game! Keep the sequels coming.
Have really enjoyed this one. No glitches. Good graphics, hops, and mini games.
We enjoyed this game very much! We had no problems and had fun solving the clues.
We play hidden object games a lot and this is a really good one. Great puzzles and challenging hidden object games. We really do love this game.
So far we really like this HOG, and we've tried and played many. There are plenty of puzzles as well, and they are somewhat challenging. It's a longer game, and follows a logical story line. We don't mind a few rodents!!! Thanks, and it was on sale. Even better.
We enjoyed. Shorter than most of this type of game but well done.
Great art work and engaging story and characters. One shortcoming are the HOPs which are very routine and repetitive Puzzles were fun with a few unique new ones Certainly worth the sale price.
We enjoyed it. No big complaints, pretty fun. Bonus was longer than we thought it would be.
Nice story. Good graphics. Just frustrating to try and get one object hit right on the pixel required to make the process work. Otherwise enjoyable mind rest.
Loved this game but it has the same problems that we have experienced in all of the Fear for Sale games: slow loading and touch difficulties in the interactive HO tasks (may take 5 or more tries to get a key to unlock a box for example). Everything else about the game is top-notch.
We've purchased hundreds of dollars worth of Big Fish Z Hidden Objects games over the past 6 years. This is probably the best because it moves along at a fast pace. HOGs are just changing enough, although the graphics are a little dark and muddled. However it is the only game of dozens that we were able to complete in a timely manner. We have a kazillion games unfinished frizzy ears! MORE apps designed like this one, abig zfish!'.
If the game didnt have so many glitches it would of been fun. Nice graphics.
Theres a place where you open a cabinet and you pick up an item, and then theres an item that needs completing. There was also a pulley wheel to pick up, which we missed, and once you complete the other item the screen closes and you cant get it any more. So, we restarted the game and made sure to get it this time. Then another glitch in the bonus game! The same type! If you dont pick up the wheel handle before completing the dial it closes and you cant get it anymore. So now Im stuck but not going to replay the whole game again just to get to replay the bonus game! Otherwise, the game is good. Its long, and the story is interesting. There are lots of mini games, some that we hadnt seen before. Plenty of hos too, some scenes are revisited. Too bad there are glitches.
Not enough ideas on each screen. You get to look in about one or two places, then you have to go to another screen. Story line is somewhat interesting. Barely enough to hold your attention. So far moving items around is not a problem.
The game is great-but freezes at the spot where you place photos for clues. We uninstalled and reinstalled and made sure the app was up to date just in case it was our device. It froze again at the same spot. We'd give it more stars because we enjoy the game, but hate that we paid for something that doesn't work. We'll keep an eye out for updates.
Played the preview. Storyline is ok just too predictable. HATE that you have to double-tap everything! What was wrong with the single-tap? Not going to buy this one.
We were really enjoying this game until it froze in the mini game and we cant go any further. Would like a refund or preferably the game to get fixed. We tried everything. Ios is up to date. Offloaded and deleted the app but still stuck in mini game. Very disappointed. Was really enjoying the game. They tried to give us coupon but that doesnt work for App Store purchases.
Im stuck on the part where the hint is telling us we need to click but it wont let us click it. And we dont have the item we need to move forward. We would like a refund.
Played this before.Liked it very much.Now you say play a free before you unlock.played to unlock,NO record of our first purchase.Pay Again! No Way! CRAP,.
