I got this game as a freebie, otherwise I would not have it. I remember the graphics being very grainy. The hint fairies don't stop banging around in their cage and as I easily get seasick, this kept me from playing the game for more than a few minutes at a time.
I don't mind HOGs having hard to find objects, so there is no need to remind me of what hidden means, but I did need all of them on almost every level just so I could get done with that level and see if the gameplay improved which it did not.
