What players say
Pretty good for a H.O.G., but also on the harder side of things. Talkin' about the mini-games. Some of them... I swear... *-* Artwork is beautiful. Everything works as intended and H.O. scenes have two varieties: find an item or stick an item into the right spot. Story is pretty good... Some suspension of disbelief is necessary, but not too much. I gotta say though... The bad guy? Pretty obvious who it is. Lol...

5 bucks!<<<<Download it now! OK, the graphics are minimal, the sound is OK, the puzzles are just fine except, every now and then, they are too dark, uneasy to see, bla, bla, bla. That said: It's a Fun puzzle game. I'm so old that my memory is going, going, almost gone, BUT: The developers have included a MAP that let's you know where you are AND where you should be going. PLUS, They also have provided a HINT service...
A great game with the interface of a House of 1000 doors. The story is pretty cool and the graphics really nice. The voices are mostly pretty good. The minigames and HOS´ are varying from easy to hard. All in one a really good HIO with no problems or contras. I can really highly recommend it.
