Ordinary game
It starts with a cute scene, good voice over, but after, the game get kind of slow. Voice over disappear (you have to read the dialogue), music is kind of annoying and... you simply enter into a scene (like kitchen, room , etc) and play several HOG at the same location. That's boring, very repetitive!
The main challenge in HOS is the size of objects (particularly in notebook)
Besides the required list, you must collect:
- gems - to earn money to rebuild the castle;
- magic wands - to gain hints,
- little fairies - who find an object from the list.
It has just a few mini games and they are easy and well known, like sliding blocks and simple puzzles - like to assemble a dollar bill, and the parts are large and few.
Despite all this, is a game that entertains.

Straight hidden object
If you like straight hidden objects then give this a demo but be warned, the H0 scenes are hard.
The prologue has a voiceover but once the game starts there is just lilting (rather boring) music & dialogue which is clickable if you read quickly. The background graphics are pretty although the characters look dated.
There are 10 puzzles to solve ? these are mini games by another name & you also unlock wallpapers as you play. You are given 3 hints to begin & you can find others but if you do not find any more then as far as I can tell there is no automatic recharge. There is a misclick penalty which soon becomes annoying as objects are so very small that you inevitably end up clicking incorrect items. And when I say small I mean miniscule.
There are a lot of things to think about besides actually finding the H0s;
in each scene there are extra hints to find in the form of wands (more than one in most cases)
a fairy that will pick up one of your objects thus removing it from the list
a speed bonus to earn cash for finding an object very quickly after it appears on the list
jewels are scattered through the game & you earn cash for locating these
The money is used to buy upgrades to the castle & like all games of this type there are three varieties to choose which can be changed if you want to.

Good game but a little repeatative
This was a fun game, nice and lighthearted. You end up spending a good amount of time on it, but the thing I didn't like was that the reason you spend so much time on it is because you have to keep searching the same scenes over and over again many times.
It WAS fun for me though to fix up the castle, which is why I kept going till the end, doing the same old searches to make enough money to buy the upgrades.
So if you don't mind searching the same scenes quite a few times each then you should really enjoy this.

One of my favourites
This game will be played over again, as it is one of the most fun games I've ever played. It's good for teens as well as adults as there is nothing really gross in the game.
It's not a heavy action game, I enjoy missing object games and it's a little more involved because you sell your items to help with the castle.
The music is so relaxing and beautiful. It makes it very pleasant to take time for yourself, with a fun game, pleasant music, and nice bright, colourful scenes.

Love this game
Some objects are challenging to find but there is a fairy in each search who will locate one item for you. There is no wondering what you're supposed to do next like some hidden mystery games do and you have no clue what it wants you to do next. In this game you are earning $$$ to remodel the castle with different models to choose from and each has a different $ amount you have to earn before you can buy it. I found it very entertaining. There are a lot of levels in this game so it will keep you busy for quite awhile. Would like to find another game like this by whoever created this one.

Hours of Fun Play
This is one of the few hidden object games that took me more than a day or two to completely beat. That being said, towards the end of the game, it started to feel a bit repetitive and it took a bit of effort to finish the castle upgrade because I felt like I was playing the same levels over and over again. Overall, it's definitely worth the price--good graphics, good music, and a decent story.

Entertaining

unfortunate
I bought this game sight unseen, based on the 4+ star reviews. what a mistake. the HOG scenes are pile-ups, very grainy, tiny tiny objects almost impossible to see, and altogether make the game virtually unplayable for me. I would have known all this had I downloaded the trial first and would never have spent a credit on it.

Lovely game. Nice graphics and not too hard. And I really enjoyed that you earned money by selling the things you find to remodel the castle and its grounds.

Fun but flawed
This games combines some fun features: pleasant story line, nicely drawn images, bonus for multiple items quickly found, variety of mini games and the ability to "improve" the castle as you progress.
Unfortunately, many of the HOs are so small/obscure/poorly differentiated from the background that, for me, it wasn't challenging - it was frustrating. There are hints that can be used (you get a bonus for those unused, and more are available in successive searchable areas).
It's worth downloading the free trial to see if the pros outweigh the cons for you.
