Unique Sci-Fi Fun!
I loved this game! The Sci-Fi oriented storyline dominated right until the end. The graphics are outstanding. Being able to switch Panorama view added to the exotic landscape.
The music and sound effects were just ok, not seeming to add much so were turned down early in game play.
The puzzles were very easy yet in line with the theme. - It would be nice to come across a game with more challenge in the puzzles and this particular game would have been a good place to start.
Things I liked:
-The storyline was eerie without being dark and depressing
-Interaction with characters throughout game play.
-Strong storyline that imbued a sense of urgency toward the end of game play
-Journal was useful but not bloated with too much info
-The "advice" window that showed increasingly more overt hints when clicked multiple times; No strategy guide needed
-HOS were not over used and alternated between written lists of items to find and pictures of items to find.
--Artwork was creative
Nice to haves:
-Challenging, unusual mini-games and more of them
-Game play was short. I am slow and it took under 3 hours
-More creativity in HOS where actions needed before collecting items.
I had a lot of fun playing this one. I hope there is more to come along these lines.
Yes, I recommend this game!

Enjoying this game!
So far I am really enjoying this game. Has a multiple set of puzzles, not just hide and seek, which keeps my attention going. I definitely recommend this game to anyone who enjoys an easy-going game that has challenges, but not so much that you get frustrated. :-)

Adventure
Great storyline, keeps you hooked! The adventure and action is frequent, also keeping you hooked! However, I did have difficulty finding some objects due to the unusual artwork. I found the game difficult at times in that I wasn't sure what I should do next. The hint button does sparkle the area you have to do next so that helped, but I hate resorting to that. LOL. I liked the progressive hint system. The music was good. Unique gameplay in that it switched between characters to allow you to complete tasks. Gameplay was average length. Have fun!

Great fun to play
This game from Cerasus Media is based on an H.P Lovecraft story; in 1931 an Antarctic expedition team is found dead except for one who is missing. After finding the team you have to travel across the mountains following the trail of the missing member & you find an ancient city in the ice.
This is an adventure with hidden object scenes & relatively easy mini-games (there was a skip button). You are given tasks to complete & these are shown on the bottom of the screen, the hint button which does not need recharge is a little erratic as to its usefulness. Sometimes when I got stuck trying to figure out how to complete a task it would sparkle over an object that helped but just as often I could not understand what the hint was telling me to do.
The task list is more of a ?do this next? so more experienced gamers may find this a little too much hand holding. There is a Casual & an Expert mode, the only difference is that the casual has sparkles at areas of interest; you can change mode while ?in the game?. There are 30 achievements to collect.
There are no voiceovers & the dialogue is clickable, the music is a little like a film score. The graphics are also fine, a little bit grainy on my monitor; you can switch on ?scrolling? which I really liked as it took you, visually, closer to the scenes & it made finding some objects easier; some of the items are pretty small & not easy to find.
Good gameplay although a little short.

Fantastic and realistic
I DID like this game a lot. The story is good, it kept me wanting to find out what happened or what woyuld be coming up next. I liked the two-character play, changing from the one character to the other and back - it made it more realistic somehow, as well as the scrolling option, like you're really looking around.
The other thing that made it realistic was, that I had to go back to a HOS to look for something ONLY when it was a logical thing to do. Like: I want to open this door but I seem to need something to hold it up. Where cou0dl I find such a thing? Oh, maybe in that room there... and yes, then there was a HOS in that room. In other games you seem to be forced to backtrack just because there may be an new HOS somewhere, but not with a realistic locigal reason for that.
I was sorry to finish it. Good story. Good playing. Original features.

Nice art but uneven gameplay.
At times the viewpoint switches between characters. Although I enjoyed the artwork, some of the items were extremely difficult to see. Lots of in-game preparation for an extremely short journey and very fast, anti-climatic ending. Gameplay not intuitive or consistent. It was all a bit uneven.

"Absolute Insanity"
It's pleasantly cold, cause I am passionate about this game. It simulates the mind. "Mystery mountain of madness", searching for clues, what happen to an entire team of researchers? Unless, you play this game, "I guess you will never know"!? . . . . Hm . . . m . . . m . . . m . . .

FUNtastic Game
I liked the demo so much I bought it after about 20 minutes.
I really like the graphics,
The story is quite unique,
The option to scroll was wonderful (motion sickness avaoided)
AND....there wasn't alot of back & forth to do things (exhaustion avaoided)
Some really nice mini games
-no sound card right now, so chk out fellow fishies on sound & voice overs)
The HO where nice, not junk piles & did I mention a decent story?
The length could have been longer, and it really reminded me og the HO game of Hidden Expeditions, only different.
