Nice to meet you. I liked the game and for me at least it definitely has replay value.

Wow! Thanks for popping in!
I've only played 40 mins of my trial, but it's on my BUY list for tomorrow (when it's a Felix Fave) <grin>

It's perfect for me as I really love the straightforward Hidden Object. This game is quite similar to the mystery PI games which I love.

Have not had occasion to say that in a while, so thank you very much for a (so far) great game!

I wish you well and hope you bring out many more games!

PS
I haven't replayed it yet, (obviously, since I've yet to finish it once) but I sure hope if I play again, the objects either change places or the list of objects change. That makes one of these games have replay value for me. Otherwise, I eventually memorize the locations and what fun is that? <grins>

Welcome to the pond MacGameGirl

Your team has done a good job with this game. Nice graphics!
Maybe you could place the objects a little differently so they are not all towards the front would be my suggestion.

Keep up the good work!

Like:

ability to find more clues
ability to skip games (mini)
story line
no big need for clues (things are hidden well, but not hard (items can be seen))

Dislike:

mini games (did not like the light game the first time--like less each time)
directions on mirror mini game was confusing (and I could just be the only one who does not get it)

Keep up the good work!

I don't like the mirror game either. I'm sure some people do, though.
There was a skip button on mine. I had to use it the second time around. I do like that if you skip it, it shows you the solution though!

Welcome to the pond MacGameGirl

Congratulations on your first game, was not sure about this game, but after having purchased it, I like it, well done, look forward to more releases.

The mini mirror game was a bit difficult for me, but I did them, like the option of the skip button

Tried the Demo and liked it. Bought the game. I like the old fashioned HOs that have some back and forth interaction in them. I agree with the poster who said it is good if the object list changes on a replay. I love HOs that last a long time. Though some players don't because it gets too redundant for them. I think your graphics are clean and I haven't found any scenes to be too dark. I just purchased the game and I will go back and start at the beginning to make sure I read all of the dialogue that goes with it. Amazing Adventures and Big City Adventures are nice and long. If you can come up with nice lengthy games like those, you will have some very loyal fans. A lot of your items in the game are easy to find, so they could probably be hidden a little bit better. But all in all, I was impressed enough to purchase this. Keep up the good work and thanks for popping into the Pond to catch the reviews. That alone gives you a big in my mind.

Welcome to the pond macgamegirl. Thanks for letting us know you are reading what we are saying about the game. I am still in the demo hour and think this is one I might buy. Items are easy to find. but some, not to easy so you do have to spend some time looking. I like the mirror game. Something new that makes you think but is not impossible to do. This is a game I will like to go to when I want to relax and not feel pressured. Love that there is no timer. I also like seeing how long it did take me to do a level. Thanks for a great game. Can't wait to see what else you guys come up with....

MacGameGirl, Welcome to the Pond.

I like your game and bought it before the demo time was up despite the fact that I dislike all Spot the Difference type puzzles. A big plus for me was the fact that, when I had to abandon the game in mid room due to topside life interferring and I had to restart the room, the objects list was completely different so that adds to the replayability. I am also enjoying the story and the clues as to where the shard boxes are hidden as well as the fact that there is a skip button available should I need it for the mini mirror games.

I look forward to playing more of your games.

I just finished this game and really enjoyed it. I wouldn't mind if there was more of a mix up between hard to find and easy to find items. Graphics were great and the music fit the theme of the game. Really enjoyed the story that went along with this

Looking forward to your next game release.

Ditto all the good I bought the game and have been playing it on and off all day I am hoping to avoid a migraine and this game is not making it worse. The brightness of my screen is more of a problem than the game So happy to know you actually care about what we think Come play with us anytime
