Loved it ! Hard enough to make me think a little, but not to hard to made me pull my hair out. I hate having to look at the walk thru or ask for help. Just about perfect. Some of the puzzles were a bit simple, but I play games to relax not to stress over. Thanks BF, more like this.

I thought this game had a lot of potential at first...the graphics are nice, the music, once turned down, had a nice ethereal quality....on a scale of 1-10 I am giving it only a 4. First, it had an extremely high annoyance factor...character repeats the same thing OVER and OVER and OVER..."I need to find a musical composition to play....I need to find a musiclal composition to play.... This is a hidden object game, it will be necessary to move the cursor around the screen, clicking anywhere near the central object causes the character to repeat their phrase. Again. And Again. Made me crazy.

Second, I found myself spending WAY too much time playing games I found tedious. NOTE TO GAME DESIGNERS: Always, ALWAYS, include a skip. It is my game, I shouldn't have to go through boring parts if I don't want to. I am all about the challenges, but these aren't really challenging...just grating, don't like'em, don't want to have to play them to progress. I didn't even make it through the hour trial. I think I'll pass. Dream Chronicals or Enlghtenus were a lot more fun.

Loved the game! Was short ,but I liked the fact you had to look in different areas.
I think her brother ( the evil villan ) was gay?

This was a good game, just beat it. Some parts were a little confusing but with the forum I figured it out.

I thought has had better games in the past.

I give it a 5 out of 10

Thanks,

Well what can I say?

The game is a good game, although I haven't finished it yet.
I am up to the second set of drawing the glyphs, grrrr.
I am getting frustrated with these,

I downloaded the trial version first, and got stuck on the first set of glyphs for half an hour.
It was the last glyph that just wouldn't go right, so I lost a lot of time, so I bought the game, and finally got passed it,
Breezed through the next few puzzles, then low and behold another set of drawing those stupid glyphs.
Playing on a lap top makes it hard to do drawing as it isn't very smooth. So now I am stuck on the second lot, grrr.
You have to be TOO PERFECT in the drawing, not got if you have a shaky hand. Sad, that means a lot of ppl are missing out on a good game.

I like the graphics, but agree with the voice of the main character.

Please from now on don't make a game that you have to be perfect at drawing. PLEASE.

I give it out of 5. Only because of the glyphs.

after playing demo, didn't think twice about getting this game. I admit it's not as challenging as some other games, but my brain is appreciative of that fact right now (my brain and I are both on vacation ). As others have said, great graphics. Haven't gotten to brother yet, so I'll have to get back about the gay part.

Am enjoying this game so far, haven't had to use hints yet although they appear to be few and far between, like the graphics but turned down the music

I love this game - the demo finished before I realized I'd been playing for an hour. The puzzles are not too difficult. I like the glyphs - a bit of a challange in the later stages of the game trying to figure out the sequence. I would definately recommend buying this game!

The good thing is that the baked potato replacement is less expensive than paying for the game again. I am still playing the game and love it. Now that I know it isn't as short as I thought it would be.
Review so far ... Great Game and Lots of Fun!

On the "UP" side of Kuros.. I am loving it! Not too hard, not to easy. Beautiful artwork!
A buy & keeper for me.

On the "DOWN" side... I was enjoying the game so much, I just killed my beautiful stuffed baked potato in the microwave from playing this game and NOT paying attention to my food!

I LOVED IT. The first adventure game that I was able to play all the way through without using the walkthrough. Most adventure games I'm totally dependent on the walkthroughs, (still love 'em) so it was really fun to go through the game on my own! I want more!! Thank you BFG!

It was a nice relaxing stroll for me. The only challenge was the fourth laser / mirror puzzle (from left to right).
I think you could describe the odd accent as Celtic. It switched about horribly between Scottish and Irish.

I still haven't made up my mind whether to buy this game or not. Does anyone know how the ending is? I mean is it a cool ending or does it fall flat. I recently played GHOST Chronicles Phantom of the renaissance faire and the ending was flat and the game was crazy short. I don't want to make that same mistake again and I am thinking it may happen with this one.

I loved the whole aspect of this game yeah some of the mini games are a bit too easy but I like the fact that you don't get many hints. You have to really look for stuff. Graphically brilliant and the music very in keeping with the atomosphere. Like other comments the "chatter" was a little inane but I quite liked the Scots accent in the metal robot well Iron Bru comes from Scotland lol

All in all and 4

Finished this game yesterday. I really enjoyed it and hope there will be a follow up game. The puzzles were about right for me and, just for a change, I did not need a walkthrough.

Great game! I found it challenging at times, but I like that. I get bored with just hidden objects. I didn't need to use the walkthrough, although I was tempted at times.

Bobobear, the ending is pretty good. Consistant with the story. And leaves an opportunity for a second game.

One suggestion I have for people just starting is to read through the "Help" section before starting, as that explains what you use the different wands for, etc.
Of course, I read it after I was all done!

It took me many hours, so I don't feel it was too short. It was well worth the $$.

Thanks Grumpy, I bought the game and have since completed it. It was a great game, not too short and the ending was good. I like the way the game challanges you to think your way through without being so difficult that you need a walkthrough. I really liked this one and am waiting for the next one.

While you're waiting for the next Kuros, I also bought Dept. 42, Mystery of the Nine, and would highly recommend it.

Then I was lucky enough to buy the 2nd Azada for $2.99 today! I played that all evening tonight and it's great too.

3 great games in a week - a really nice way to recover from major surgery!!

Thanks Big Fish!!
