Too Short!

[Post New]by tonleee on Jan 9, 09 7:50 AM
I kind of liked this game during the demo. But only about half an hour after I bought it, it was over. It is kind of a silly game, but I was having fun. Not really worth the money. I like games that go on and on and on!

I agree with the original poster. TOO SHORT!!

I played the demo and like it so much that I bought it. About 15 minutes into it, it was all over. This is the first time that I have been disappointed with a game purchase.

I think it was too short also. I am very disappointed in big fish games. I finished it about 15 minutes after buying it. I thought it would be longer and more like the yard sale games.

Thank you all for posting this as I loved the demo yesterday but was afraid it was going to be too short so I am glad I did not purchase it as of yet.

I liked it too. I was getting ready to buy. What room did you all end with when the demo was over. I think that I am a slower game player than most????

well I have about 15 min. left in the demo and am about halfway through the rooms. I'm not a big Hidden Object game player either, OnWis, but still felt like this game was too short.

I'm a Wisconsinite myself, woot woot!

i am so disapointed - its disgusting that you pay for 15 more minutes before the game is over - not worth the money at all.

I agree, I rarely buy HO games but I really liked this one. About 15 mins after I bought it, it was over. What a waste.

What he said, thanks for the heads up. I enjoyed the demo, but I also enjoyed the Haunted Hotel 2 demo, and didn't buy it because of the reviews that it was also too short.

Yes it is shorter than most, however I really enjoy it. I purchased the game & am playing it angain for the 2nd time. So far, the list of objects has been changed somewhat which is nice.

Thanks to the forum (I now check it before I buy a game), I liked Fabulous Finds so was going to use a credit but after checking in here I wont bother.

So thanks...... Fantastic Forum

Love hidden object games--demo was great--bought the game--was done in 15 minutes--much much too short--not worth the money

I definitely agree. I happened to read the posts on this game because when I saw the layout of the house, I began to wonder if the game ended once the whole house was decorated and, sure enough, YUP!

It took me 2 hours and 10 minutes to play the entire game, ending off with decorating the basement any way I wanted to without a poem to guide my theme. So I made a movie room and then got the "to be continued" message. I was highly disappointed because I actually thought this was a great twist on hidden object games. But it definitely did not last long enough to justify spending money on it, even the $7 I would have paid through my game club credit, so I'm glad I was able to use someone else's full version before I made that leap.

Hi all

Thanks CapricornSongs just figured out why I never get stars in decore - the poem -simple me better read to quick to play sometimes
dont read enough - thanks again and thanks to forum for the place to find out what I am doing wrong.

I just downloaded and played about 20mins THEN thought better go to forums. I like HOG and the Yardsale games I have but the
TM part of the game found frustrating only because I had trouble matching shopper with sale but like most loved their reaction to my
mismatch.

Happy gaming

I also bought it; it was too short, too dictated (not enough player freedom), and fairly boring. I don't recommend it.
