A lot of fun and very challenging!
This is by far the best of the World Riddle games. It is very challenging and I have spent hours on it and still haveb;t finished it. Grids have been up to 25 x 25..The added challenge for me is trying to finish in the gold category.
If you like World Riddle, World Mosaics, or Gemsweeper, you will enjoy this game.

Good Logic Puzzles
I love Big Fish Games, but they sure seem to be lacking in the logic puzzle category. I'll probably end up buying all of sister games to this one.
This game has a lot of levels so I'm pleased with its value.

Totally fun
this is totally fun... you can totally get lost in it. only bad is if you try to break cells in a row, somereason, even though you let go of the mouse, it still breaks when i went to different cell.

Brain Teasing Puzzle
This game is a great time killer, that also requires some brain intensive logic. Great for keeping the faculties sharp. However the sameness of the puzzles and the difficulty in the later levels means you can only play for about 30 minutes at a time before you get either bored or frustrated.
I don't know how to describe the game play itself besides saying it's kind of like a twist on minesweeper, except much more fun.
The background activity of collecting points to "buy" items to fill up whatever environment you're in is nice enough but fairly pointless. It'd be nicer if each item you bought led to some other type of puzzle or something.
Still a good game for when you have a spare 20 minutes to kill and want to tax your brain.

A game to think and have fun at the same time
As all World Riddles, is a very pleasant game for those who like numbers. Would be better if it was not necessary to break the remaining gaps, (as it is in World Mosaics), because sometimes the mouse fails.

Awesome game
Very challenging, some glitches have now been worked out, if you are a scientific/logic/mathematical person, you will like this one!

LOVE IT!
Love this game! First got into this type of game from World Mosaics, which is similar, and with the same type of patterns, this has more colors and just plain fun. Love both but this is edging itself out front.

Bad graphics
I love the first World Riddles: Seven Wonders and I expected Secret of Ages would be more fun. Unfortunately it's not. Too many bright, blinking colors make this game unplayable. If you only improve the graphics (less colors, less blinking) I'd love to buy the game, as it has lots of potential!

Finaly some challenge
I've tried a few of these games because i like them on paper ,the only differance was that the paper and pencil puzzles where big in size (30 by40 and bigger) and these where small.
This one finaly comes close with bigger grids from the start up to 20 -25 .I don't know how big they get because i'm still playing the one hour demo but the challenge seems to be good in these puzzles.
Also i want to correct a previous comment on this game about the empty squares. You don't have to click these anymore if you have completed the puzzle,just click the box in the option menu.
And you can let your mouse buttons build and break directly with left and right if you want to, also in the option menu.
So if you ever wanted to try one ,this is the one.
Have fun

Excellent logic puzzle
I love this game. Lots of puzzles, 140 different mozaics in seven levels of increasing difficulty, plus the bonus play. Some of the 25x25 matrices are really hard! The mechanics work very well on my Mac and are improved over the first entry in this series. If you like logic puzzles that involve numbers (like Sudoku) this game is for you.
