Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
This was a lot of fun and very captivating to play.
Loved it, great game play and expectations done in unique ways. Good puzzles and superior graphics though a bit short.
This was a really fun game, no having to pay extra for more time or jewels or pointless stuff like that! Great puzzles and mini games and seek and find! We love that it's an actual mystery game and that you actually are solving a mystery, without monsters and demons and all the stupid evil junk. It seemed like it was fairly short and we got through fairly quickly, but we still highly enjoyed this game and would definitely recommend to anyone who likes real mystery solving games! Please make more games like this.
This is a good one. Nice mix of hops and mini games.
We have enjoyed this game. The map is helpful, the storyline solid, the graphics great, and a nice variety of scenes.
We are sooo impressed with the talent behind Blam Games! Big Fish is lucky to have you. You have the most thoughtful and amazing minds creating fantastic and immersive work. Other hidden object game developers need to take notes. We would be forever happy if we could play a Blam game everyday. Keep up the great work! Wow.
Great game!!! Disappointed in the ending!!! We loved playing this game.
Only played the beginning and really liking this game. We used advanced just in case we need hints. The graphics are phenomenal. Story is great. The HOS are challenge worthy, but not too boring or overdone. A lot of games have near impossible HOS in them. This is a really great game for five bucks. We also like the live action sequences even though the lips didn't not sinc . Lol enjoy it.
Plays quickly. Glad we only paid $4. Enjoyed the variety of HOs, and scenes. Overall quite fun. One annoying thing: Anytime you select a detail the game says "we can use something here" whether you can or not. Beware.
We play a lot of games, this is a pretty good one. Will probably buy it.
We liked the storyline, and we enjoyed the graphics. Transportation map & customized settings (15 seconds is the lowest number available) are a definite plus. Ok, so maybe we're spoiled now, but we just don't like games without a transportation map; we won't even buy a game that only has the old style of map now. And it's a good thing, as the game tends to make the player go back & forth a lot, especially towards the end of the game. The HOS & mini games are easier to play, but not to the point of boring; and are still challenging enough to make you think. Even the length of the game is good – not too short, not too long. We haven't played the bonus chapter yet, because they asked for a review immediately after we finished the main game. Overall, it's a decent game; and a LOT less frustrating and/or "buggy" than quite a few of Big Fish's releases for the past 2-3 months. But we also have a couple gripes, too. First, the collectible cards are really hard to find in most of the scenes. The other collectible objects (like the shields, and a couple more) are the same. It gets to irritating for us, so we just gave up trying to find them. Oh, and even if you choose to mute the music, (which we do about 98% of the time.) it still plays tunes during the puzzle games. There's also the issue of having to touch something twice before you can see what it is, or to be able to into a different "room". We used both a stylus and our fingertip with the same result. The HOS are sensitive to touching too many places while searching. But how are we supposed to complete a game that's full of hidden objects within the hidden object game? You have got to touch around to find out which objects are hiding the object you're trying to find? (& if that paragraph made sense to you – we're impressed, lol!!).
It crashed once when we tried to leave the first scene. When we reopened it, we had to start from the beginning. Grrrr. The first HO scene was "find the shape." we hate those, but we did it to proceed. The other HO scenes were mostly in words, which was fine, but they had extra steps, which made them more interesting. The game has a fair map. We used it once and it showed no place to do anything. That was less than helpful, so we used a hint. The hint system was good. The map and hint allow teleporting. Some of the puzzles were boring. Some had poorly written instructions. And some were fine. Overall, not a great game, but okay.
WAY TOO SHORT FOR FULL PRICE GAME :(.
We are a fan of most Big Fish games; however, we are extremely disappointed in this one. Very poor quality design & full of glitches.
We really don't understand why this game is getting such great reviews. We wish we hadn't bought this one! As soon as we did, the quality went downhill. It's clunky and non-responsive, and we often have to touch on things several times to get them to work.
