I like this game - I bought it twice!
This was one of the first HOG games I ever played, so my experience level was low. I found it very challenging and I didn't know about walkthroughs. I got through it anyway and replayed it many times because it was the only HOG I had . The story is entertaining and plausible, the mini-games lend to the story, and the mystery is fairly good. The graphics are not MCF quality, but I didn't think things were as hard to find as Coosto did. When my computer crashed, I bought this game again from Bigfish when the company I originally bought it from couldn't replace it for me.

Nice game
I found it enjoyable - the levels increased in difficulty somewhat, and the storyline was entertaining. I enjoyed playing this game.

DO NOT BUY THIS!!!
I have owned this game for a long time and was so frustrated with it. I never got past the first, section the objects to small and the scenes are so far away from the items they are very difficult to see on a monitor screen. The timed object finds are stupid considering the above.
To me it seems like the Developers blow the scene up, place articles in it and then shrink them down again. Finding an elephant under a blade of grass is not good programming.

Solid Gameplay
Like one of the other reviewers, this was among the first HOG games I played, and like that reviewer, I've also bought it twice because the company I originally bought it from couldn't replace it.
This is a great game. It might not be at quite as flashy as some of the newer HOG games, but it has an interesting story and fun gameplay. I think the scenes are what really stood out to me, though. I felt like I was in actual place and really enjoyed spending time on most of the scenes. The sound effects created a nice ambiance, as well.
I didn't think the objects were overly hard to find -- hard, yes, but not overly so. I think it's an enjoyable difficulty, for the most part. I did it without a walkthrough, and it provided a lot of challenging gameplay. It felt longer than the average HOG to me.
At the very least, play the trial version and see what you think. It's a solid game.
