Waste of time
Very annoying how the only way to know what you are doing next is to wander around looking for an open door. puzzles very easy. Also it crashes all the time ( at least when it crashes it remembers where you were up to) and there's no voice over or sound other than the music background so don't bother turning it on.

Yawn
I played in the expert option and found the HOGs were pretty easy, though I didn't intuitively know that clue = glue. The story disappeared after the opening of the game and reappeared at the very end. Not sure were it went in between. I'm glad I only paid $2.99 because I very seriously doubt I will ever play it again.

Definitely Different
I read the reviews but tried the demo anyway. Well I liked it to me it's a game to chill out with, not to hard on the brain.You have to locate 8 talismans and bring them together. The HOS scenes were good as some of the items were a little tricky to find but not impossible. The puzzles I encountered were not to easy I think just right for this game. Also if you really stuck and not sure where to go the hint button will give you an idea where to go next. This game would be great for a beginner. Try the demo any way you might be surprised I was. Enjoy

Fun anddid not want it to end
When I started to play this game, I found out that it takes place at a college. The graphics and sound are good. The people look like people. It is not that hard. I had to use the hint button. After I did something I was able to figure out what to do next. I did not want the game to end. I would recommend this game.

A nice relaxing game
I already have this game, but didn't quite remember it, so i played it again. I like it. It's not going to be anyone's all time favorite, but it's a nice break from some of those where you absolutely need a walkthrough.
If you don't know what to do next, just look for an unlocked door, or click on the hint button and it will tell you. I like games with that feature. It should be a requirement.
The music was nice but the "ghostly" noises were totally unnecessary. There is no voice over, but you don't have anyone to talk to anyway. At the end there is a statement leading us to believe there will be a sequel. Perhaps that's why it's on DD now.
It's a straight forward HOG with a few puzzles thrown in. Nothing that will challenge an expert HOG player. I played the regular version and it ran about 3.5 to 4 hours.
Well worth the money especially when you feel like playing a game that doesn't over tax your brain. ;)
:thumbup: It's a buy and i recommend it.
