This one almost received one star
Review after finishing the game:
The Good:
+ good graphics
+ quite good videos
+ hidden objects true to time period
+ a sizeable number of locations in each, ahem, location
+ magic powers (although they aren't used much, "Smash" in only 2 occurrences)
+ "Area clear"
The Neutral:
o voiceovers only during the intro
o only four locations
o big map could have been filled better (read: additional locations, please)
o "Area clear" sign delayed in many screens
The Bad:
- BRUTAL ENDING!!!!
- objects that you will need later on can sometimes not be picked up the first time you visit a location
- BRUTAL ENDING!!!!
- some dark objects hidden in dark corners of a hidden object scene, some items are very small
- did I already mention that the ending was brutal?
Bottom Line: Quite enjoyable until the cliffhanger end. Grab it up in a Daily Deal when the sequel is out, can not recommend it before that.

Great Game... My First... Now I'm Hooked!
This was more than I could have expected... Suspenseful & fun & I had a great time. Still waiting for a sequel... I hope more people review this game (It came out quite some time before review feature, so no wonder there aren't more reviews here for it). That said, if you love mystery and adventure games, too, this one is sure to excite and delight! As someone who used to make films, I really appreciate the filmic quality in games. This was a really fun one, and like I said... It was my first and got me hooked!

Fun Hidden Object Advenure Game
I have owned this game for a while but just found the time to play it. The graphics and artwork are good and the story is OK. I had the sound down so I can comment on the soundtrack.
For the most part the navigation is logical, but I did have to consult a walkthrough a few times when I just couldn?t figure out what to do next.
I also found some the HOScenes difficult. Many times only a small part of the item needed is visible. Thankfully, the hint feature pointed out the item needed, rather than just circling an area the way it does in some games, and the hint button refilled quickly.
The vexing part of the game for me was when you think you are going to need a certain item you come across in a location in the future, but you are not allowed to pick it up until you reach a certain point further in the story line. Perhaps the dev?s felt that this was better than having a large inventory, but I would rather have a lot of inventory items than have to backtrack for items that I was forced to pass over.
I word of warning to potential buyers, the ending is a cliffhanger. So, if you are the type that needs a definite ending you may want to wait until the sequel is available. I?m not a fan of cliffhangers, but didn?t feel cheated by the ending.

I expected more
The first chapter/location was really good. Good HOS, though sometimes the dark scene made it difficult to find an object. Overall good graphics and sound. But afterwards, I got quickly bored, it was always the same procedure... And I was disappointed by the end of the game "... to be continued" ??? and IMHO the gamelength is on the short side!

New Orleans Hit again by Evil Curse !
Delving once more in BFG's treasure trove, I bumped into this game which I hadn't noticed before.
I spent a very pleasant hour playing the demo and particularly appreciated the HO Scenes because they are neat, very easy and can be quickly completed. I admit it, I am not a HOG fan, but I don't mind such scenes when theyr'e not junk piles and the HOs are not microscopic.
Furthermore the number of HO Scenes is not exaggerated thus leaving plenty of room for the adventure. Like in other games, you encounter the traditional type of useful items: ladder, plank, scissors, etc.. But you also have to find other kinds, more specific to the story, as several tasks involve making magical mixtures to remove the curse. Four abilities also enable you to cast spells.
All HOs fit in the 19th C context: no cell phone, no high-tech wristwatch to seach for, but and old bicycle, an antique jewel box as two examples.
Of course it is an eerie adventure, with curses, magic and ghosts. Nothing frightening though, but the spookyish atmosphere is well rendered.
I liked the visuals, they're gorgeous. The soundtrack is great with a music that wouldn't disparage a war movie, fits in quite well, and the voice-overs are quite good.
Not many puzzles, but plenty of things to do, a variety of tasks, clear objectives and many beautiful locations to explore, which entails a fair amount of navigation, but as you don't need to travel too far remembering where things are is no problem. Besides, the game tells you when an area is clear. Always a plus.
Minigames/puzzles are fairly standard on the whole, easy, with a some originality here and there, and can be skipped.
The Hint System doesn't refill fast and sometimes will even hightlight something useless or point to a location where there's nothing to do. But the adventure is easy enough for you to find your way and figure out what to do next without using hints.
The game apparently ends with a huge cliffhanger. I suppose the developers intend to release a sequel. But even if they don't, this Voodoo Whisperer is interesting enough to provide a few hours of enjoyment, especially if you like magic.

Voodoo Hidden Object Fun
Good game for intermediate Hidden object players. Fun to collect items for the potions. Good artwork with interesting scenes. I liked this game and look forward to the sequel.

Shame about the ending
The game is set in 19th century New Orleans & you have to save your family when the town is overcome by a curse.
The hidden object scenes are relatively easy and the items within them are in keeping with the era & the mini puzzles are not too difficult. There is a lot of back tracking through scenes already visited but this is no hardship as the graphics & artwork are quite stupendous; very clear & very beautiful. I enjoyed having to collect items for recipes to create potions.
I love the voiceovers in the cut scene & as for the background sounds & music, they are some of the best I have found in a game of this type.
but...............the moving inventory at the bottom of the screen is really annoying. When I want to back out of a scene the inventory pops up & I have to move my mouse around to find the exit.
The hint button is not very useful unless you are in a H0 scene, within the H0 scene there is a magnifying glass but as the area it shows is not large it is not very helpful.
Unfortunately the ending is a cliff-hanger which is a shame as by the time a sequel comes out (if it does) I will have forgotten the story

Ok Game but very short
This game was ok to play, but only 4 locations. I finished the whole game in 2 hours. More suited to beginners, not for expert players.

Great game until....
Until you think you're almost done with the game and at the end and it tells you to be continued.

Great game, bad ending!
Loved this game when i played it on my iPad last year so bought it again for the Mac and still a wonderful game though could of done with a map or a hint button that gives a little more of a clue. Loved the HOS which were crisp and clear and the storyline is great. The only downside is the ending! will people remember what happened by the time the second one is released? i'm not sure but i was not expecting that cliff hanger that's for sure. Good thing is that with such an abrupt cliff hanger it assures the developers that people will rush to buy it to find out what happens next! :-)
