Sweet Sentimental Story
This game was really a lot of fun, harder than it looks. It was the perfect escape from dungeons and grainy-caves and evil demented doctors.
The minis were all do-able, the storyline was logical and the HOs were challenging and fun. This game wasn't depressing or grim in any way and I enjoyed every minute of it.
This game will appeal to anyone who loves romance and who dreams of the past. Great game, developers! Thanks BigFish for including this type of game in your inventory.

Nice love story, but very short
This is a cute story with beautiful graphics and sound, easy HOS and puzzles, and a good hint system. But, without skipping, it took me a bit more than 1 hour to finish; that's definitely too short for me!
I recommend it as a DD or for beginners.

Not a great ending.
I decided this time I would actually read the story and not just skip it....I wish I had lol. The game was very good and entertaining, but the ending left me hanging. I would buy it just for the different "scenery" but not totally sold on it.

What a wonderful relaxing game.
This isn't the first Love Story game I've tried. I was glad to see this one and I was not disappointed one bit. It has wonderful hidden objects and mini games. It's very light hearted and the grpahics are fantastic. Music is wonderful and it's all around a great game if your looking to get away from the dark, dreary games. It's a game tailored twards famales, but anyone who's looking to find a lost love over the years would enjoy this game.

Beautiful Game
What a lovely game! So different from the usual macabre, dark horror and thriller games. We really need more of these type of games. Beautiful graphics, and nice background music. Some of the objects in the HO games are a little small, but not difficult to find. Yes, the storyline is a bit unrealistic, as someone mentioned previously, but it IS just a story after all. I personally enjoyed every bit of it. A game to take your time over, and relax with. Not for the romantics, indeed, but one that saw this particular gamer weeping at the end! If you are tired of the dark and sinister, and dont' mind a bit of the old romance, this game is definitely for you.

Good Story
At first I started not to recommend this game until the end, because there is too much back and forth, back and forth. The story is an excellent idea! Some puzzles are easy, some are difficult. Hidden objects hard to find. I do not recommend this for a beginner because it was hard for me to follow. There is no even flow, but I don't want to give it a bad rap stopping others from trying it.

Brilliant story!
I don't even really like hidden object games. In fact this type of game is exactly the opposite of fun for me but I NEEDED to buy this game because it just had such an AWESOME STORY.
I mean, I actually just play the game to find out what happens next. I am absolutely gagging to see the ending and I'm just about to go finish it in one go to see what it is.
So far it is good, while not as challenging as I'd like, I still need some hints as so many items I forget how to use them!

lovely game but is short and not hard
I loved the first game in the series and this fits in well. Graphics are lovely, mood is nice and is a must for romance fans. The interactions are good, hidden object scenes well done, not too many and a variety. A lot of interactions which is good. Puzzles are on the easy side apart from 1 or 2 which although was easy took some time. There is an option for no sparkles which was good.
The let down for me was the actual story! I don't want to give away the end but would like unique endings. And the ending made no sense as the father was living in the cottage up until a year ago.
It is also short 3-4hrs for me, a normal (HOPA - hidden object puzzle adventure) would be 4-5hr while a hard or long one would be 5-6hr. I got it with a punchcard so didn't mind that side of it.
I do like romantic stories, set on the beach and apart from the ending did it well. Would be lovely to see more of these kind of games if they made them a bit harder.

Finally a game with a very good ending
You know it is a love story by the title so no one will be disappointed if they thought they were getting something else. Starts off a bit slow, poignant but it does build interestingly. More searching for particular items than HO scenes...if that is your preference you will like this. Puzzles are more easy than not. This game is carried by the story. I enjoyed it as much for the story as the break from the norm in catching villians/demons, etc This game has beautiful beach scenes that I really liked as most people do...

Mwell...
The story was good... but could have been better. The game wasn't that challenging and not long enough, in my point of view. Took me an hour and a half to finish it...
It was okay. But the other Love Story game was even better.
