Excellent game
The graphics are crisp & clear with wonderful colours & the artwork is drop dead gorgeous; the setting is early 1900s & the scenes & objects are from the period. This includes the hidden object items, excellent attention to detail on the developers part, you won?t be looking for any electrical items in this game.
The music is a pleasure & I liked the background noises. In the options you can choose full screen which fills my widescreen monitor & you can change the custom cursor; although I don?t think you will want to, the game cursor is long & elegant with a beautiful point.
You can play in hard or easy mode ? hard mode does have a few glints but no major sparkles which appear everywhere on the easy mode. The hint recharges in around 30 seconds on easy but a massive 3 minutes on hard so you are not tempted to use it too often.
The H0 scenes (there are a lot of these) are a mixture of word lists & shapes which adds interest; there is a misclick penalty ? the cursor turns red & moves around slowly which is ok in easy mode but takes around 10 seconds in hard which seems like an age. I managed to work out the answers to all the mini-games I played during the demo with some thought.
Unfortunately there are no voiceovers just subtitles but it did not spoil my enjoyment. The gameplay was very logical; you could work out where you should be going & what to look for. There is a journal which tells your story & gives clues as to your next task but there is no map as you do not need it; there is walking between scenes but they are not miles apart.
My one reservation is that the game did seem to end rather abruptly.

A HO/Adventure with many new twists
This game deserves a warm welcome for it is full of ingenuity and imagination.
Not only does it offer many HO Scenes - a feature that should delight the aficinados of the genre, and even ravish those who are not too keen on them, for they are all very pleasant to play, although at times a bit cluttered - but also many puzzles and minigames you don't find in other games; some are very original, others are classics with a twist [except one].
I had fun playing them as I had fun performing the tasks and visiting the various locations well crafted with taste and talent.
The HO Scenes do not always come with the usual lists, but also with silhouettes, and with objects you need to move aside in order to find the items buried underneath. Interesting.
I particularly liked the beginning, the voyage in the bullet train that suddenly turns into an old choo-choo.
And for once I didn't have to mute my speakers: the music is not bad at all and there is even a very nice piece that would do well as the main theme of a western or a war movie.
Still, the game is not perfect and one could regret its shortness [4 hours for the SE] without skipping anything, the absence of voice-overs, the amount of bactracking which increases half way through the game, the lack of a map [although the Hints show you where to go if you get stuck], and the last part of the ending which is quite unecessary.
The storyline is another classic, a ghost story mixed with an evil magician who stops time in and around a town.
It's a full 4 star game which I can only recommend, on account of its novelties, several challenging puzzles, good minigames, and many interesting actions to perform.

Fun Hidden Object Adventure Game
I really enjoyed this game, but sadly the ending spoiled it for me. The ending is quite abrupt, again it is a case of a developer using the deplorable practice of using the bonus chapter in the CE to complete the game story.
However, the game overall is fun to play, it has a nice mix of puzzles, varying in complexity, some of them quite challenging, some easy. The different scenes were varied & visually quite beautiful, & the story up to the end, was interesting & engaging.
The abrupt ending was why I deducted 2 stars, I cannot condone the practice of using the CE bonus to complete the story, bonus means extra NOT completion.

Good Fun
I got this with a free game stub and am glad I did.I don't take others' reviews too seriously because they are usually based on the trial which anyone can play.I base all reviews on the games I purchase and I must say it was fun to play,had great graphics. It had the standard hidden object scenes paired with the sillouhette scenes and had a good serene music score.It was pretty straight forward meaning you don't need a map or walkthrough.There was the usual running to and fro that we have grown accustomed to and no voice-overs.The story was a typical ghosts in need of a helping hand.It was not a very long game but if what you are looking for is a fairly easy but enjoyable game then I recommend this one to add to your inventory.

Lots of Hidden Object Scenes...
But...that was ok. They mixed it up a bit. Some of them were the kind where they show you shadows of the object and you have to figure out what it is, and some were "find all 12 of "x" item"....so not too bad.
Really, my only complaint was a lack of a skip button on some of the mini-games. That irritates me because some of them are just so tedious. But, other than that, I enjoyed the game.

Solid, good adventure/HOG with nice visuals.
The gameplay is fun and the visuals are cohesive throughout the game. However, I found the story a bit convoluted and confusing, and never got entirely engrossed. Many overlapping puzzles got a bit confusing, too, with many objects in my inventory and no idea what to do with most of them. Still, a fun play.

Liked it
Not a bad game at all, really enjoyed it and had great storyline and the graphics were fantastic! Didn't need a SG because the hint button did a great job of letting me know where to go next if i was stuck. Really enjoyable game.

Entertaining little game
This game offers a bit of a change from the usual HO/Adventure game. The graphic are very nice, the music good, no voice overs, no map but a good level of play.
The HOs vary from the standard junkpile (most not to messy) to silhouettes to identical items to moving items around. Made for some interesting play. The puzzles were also very good and ranged from fair to somewhat challenging. The puzzles required inventory items to complete which again made for some interesting play.
The game was a little short but was enjoyable. A little more of the faceless monster would have added to the storyline, but overall a pretty good game.

Mostly good
I enjoyed the vast majority of the game, but I think I remember there being several times when the next step isn't obvious and you have to go back and visit all the places you've been to see if there's a new search area. I hate having to do that.
Some of the puzzles were more annoying rather than fun and challengeing as well, so I ended up skipping a few.
All in all though I'd say it's a good game and worth it. Also pretty good length-wise.
