Unexpected Pleasure
I never saw this one coming. What a different game. You actually get to play 3 parts interacting with each other. Inventory is a blast to try and keep up with.
Graphics are bright and clear with a few gotchas in there.

Very entertaining game.
Story begins with the nightmare of Tara ...
You will help Tara, Mara and Rahul to search the Regal Scepter, at Cherai.
Good storyline, excellent sound, great and crisp graphics, very good VO, particularly of children.
Many many locations, AND... each child will explore a different area and will collecting things, but some will be used by another ... How?
They can change things, although not in the same scene ...! Only playing you can see how much entertaining is.
Several HOS, not challenging and hint (a peacock) fills fast. Many mini games - medium level of difficult, but they are very well done and really entertaining.
Really pleasant and enjoyable game.

Most Challenging game I've played.
We need more like this one. We almost resorted to using a notebook to keep up with all the stuff we had to find and which character need what to complete the tasks. Having three characters certainly made it more challenging. Truly AWESOME game.

Very Interesting and Challenging Game
This game is extremely good, and will be enjoyed immensely by those who like a challenge, it is both a H0G and an adventure.
The story line is good and interesting, there are two modes of play, Normal and Challenge Mode.
The game is very long and involved.
The voice over?s are good and appropriate
As for the music, I have no idea, I was too involved in the game to hear anything.
Spoiler: if you choose to play in Challenge Mod, I offer following advice:
1) keep abreast of the Grandha (journal on the lower left of the screen)
2) keep a manual list of inventory items
3) return regularly to the Exchange room to determine who has the inventory items you need to complete a task.
4) search every scene carefully, without sparkles it is easy to miss important objects and clues.
End Spoiler
Once you have accomplished the method of navigating between the characters, the map, and the Exchange room you will find this game all consuming.
In challenge mode this was a 5 star game for me, I enjoyed the first game very much, but this game was by far the best.

who has what
This one took me longer than most to play. It is much heavier to adventure style play than HO although it does have several HO scenes. For sure the most challenging part is that you play as three different characters, each with their own area to explore. The fun comes when you realize that not every inventory object that you find is to be used in your area. So you must meet the other characters in an underground meeting place to swap objects. That's after you figure out who needs what and where. I found it quite challenging to remember who was doing what, what their area consisted of (which one had the well which one needs a shovel) and I often had to resort to making lists to keep things straight. But I did appreciate that quite a bit of thought and preparation went into this game. it was beautifuuly drawn with lots of color and an abundance of different locations. The mini games were fun. it had the one from the Drawn games with the lighting, blowing out and moving around of candles. All in all a fun game but with a bit more demand on concentration than I would have liked.

Confusion = Not Fun
The game has you switch between three characters so much that it is confusing and frustrating to know what to do. Items are not intuitive. Had to consult a walkthrough which I hardly ever do. At the end, there was such tedious things to do, I just could not wait for it to be over. Good graphics and easy HOS. Puzzles could have been fun but I skipped just to get the game over with.

Challenging game to play
This is an Interactive Hidden Object that is a little more complex than usual as you play the part of 3 characters during the game. There are voiceovers which are very well done & the music is really suited to the story.
The graphics are excellent & the artwork really lovely; some may find the scenes dark as the story is set at night, however I had no problem seeing items. The H0 scenes are pretty easy & the hint recharge is very quick, only 30 seconds on hard mode & faster on easy. Looks like the game developer took note of the complaints in the first game about this. If you drag an inventory item over to the hint (a peacock) you will be shown a picture of where it can be used. The hard mode only has sparkles for H0 areas only & in easy all active areas have them.
You are given a journal & also a picture of the King of Cherai; if you click on it you will be told what the next task is. In addition you will be given a map that shows levels not yet opened, levels cleared & where you are; it is also interactive.
The mini games during the demo were the usual sort, sliders, etc & were pretty easy.
So back to the 3 characters; this is rather confusing at first & takes a while to get the hang of. You start with one, Tara & are shortly joined by Maya, another girl. You will see two ribbons at the top of the screen & the one that is brightest is the character you are currently playing. Later you will be joined by a young boy, Rahul.
You will find objects as one character that need to be given to another & to do this you go to a meeting place that has a sort of roulette wheel. You put the item on the wheel, click an arrow to send it to the other person.
To play as another character; for instance you may have given an inventory item to say, Maya, to be used then click on that character?s ribbon at the top of the screen.
With so much going on in the game I rather lost track of the story; it took all my wits to remember which character I was & whom I should play; it was a delight to be challenged.

Great and frustrating
you are playing three people at one time, moving items between them and moving all over the place. game is both fascinating and challenging as well as unbelievably frustrating at times. toward the end the walk through was invaluable. overall good and definately challenging and unique.

DISJOINTED
We found this game rather disjointed, you had to switch back in forth between players and unless you were able to use the blog walkthrough you would never know what to do or when, we found it very confusing.

Brilliant game
Very innovative and challenging game for those who like multitasking and less hand holding in the game.
