This is a hidden object game not an adventure one. And this is to warn all those who like me who love adventure games buy hate the hidden objects screens. These force you to find objects which has nothing to do with the story of the game and hinder its progress. I wish the developers removed those screens so that it whould make a good adventure game.

Great little game. This was very fun to play. The mechanics are simple, but it's very well designed.

A pretty decent hidden object game, clear scenes but busy enough to be not completely trivialised, the mini games were fine although on the easy side, and overall it is fairly short.
The plot is okay, although the end of chapter 1 kind of pushes our protagonist from a fool to an idiot, what else was he expecting to happen?

This is a really difficult review as there are a lot of ups and downs in this game.
The main plot is not original but the little sub-areas are extremely varied; there was not, however, a lot of fleshing out done in each area and it left me wanting to know a little more about each place.
Voice acting is limited to the narrator and that was well done. Music and sounds were decent.
Graphically not stellar but certainly passable; hidden object scenes were clear and there was no pixel-hunting or looking for badly-labeled items ("is that blob a football, or is THAT blob a football?" isn't an issue in this game),
Some of the puzzle solutions were downright silly, but I think that's actually what the game was going for. I'm not thinking that they're taking themselves too seriously here so it's pretty important that players suspend disbelief too. The solutions do make sense, they're just sometimes... well, silly. Like I said.
As the tags clearly state, this is a hidden-object/casual puzzle game, not a full-fledged adventure game. Make sure you read what you're buying before you buy it and are disappointed.
The worst thing the game has going for it, honestly, is length. Since most of the puzzles aren't grossly difficult, I pretty much plowed right through in about two and a half hours. This makes the $9.99 cost WAY too expensive for what you're getting. I would not get this if not on sale.
So in the end, I am going to recommend this as a short, silly HO/puzzler AS LONG AS IT'S ON SALE - there are plenty of better games out there if you're going to pay full price. But it's by no means godawfully bad, and worth wasting a couple bored hours with.
