Awesome Game
I have just completed this game and it was delightful. Not too hard for the old eyes and really kept my interest the whole game. Sometimes I am glad that I have completed a game, but I was sad that this one was over.
I did have to use hints occasionally, but not often.
Loved the option to do a search or a match 3 or both on HO scenes. Usually I don't care much for match 3, but these were really good.
I recommend this for anyone that likes relaxed fun.

Challenging Game
When I played the beta version of this game I found it easier. This time it was VERY challenging and I know I didn't get as far in the one hour trial. It will go on my "buy list" for the future.

Great Game
Map, sparkles, quickly recharging hints and the ability to toggle between hidden object and match three....what more could you ask. Plenty of game play-very, very few non linear moves...

Dark and Murky
I found the graphics very grainy, the music was redundant.
I did like the option of HOG or a match 3 game a nice option that I've never seen before.
Like all games I recommend that you download and trial. Not everyone likes or dislikes the same thing.

Hidden Object
The game was interesting, from the start to the end, great graphics, very interactive and challenging.
I was very surprised with the many areas of interest for a regular game.

Spectrally disappointing.
This game is loaded with difficult HOS's, a feature that should ravish all fans of the genre, including those who, like me, are not crazy about them -I often say I wouldn't be certain to spot an elephant in a well-lit corridor... LOL. That's not quite true. The reason it might appeal to less seasoned HO hunters is that the Hint System doesn't need recharging; it's permanent, hence overgenerous. A judicious idea because every HOS is a monster clutter filled to the brim with junk items, lots of which are tiny and eye-straining. Now, if you want to skip them, a super exciting minigame awaits you as a substitute: "blocks of balls busting" (or whatever it's called). The puzzzles are few and far between and hardly impressive. The accent is placed on hunting useful objects -something that suits my adventurous tastes a lot more- scattered through different eras which you travel to and fro by means of a time device. I rather liked that feature; makes a nice change to the usual routine. The rest is okay with decent graphics, a fairly atmospheric music and even a couple of funny things like the scene where a fire is burning; click on it and hear the voice-over say... "FIRE !" Not everything in this game is highly logical though, and the amount of entertainment you will derive from it largely depends on your taste for and skills at finding small HOs. Easier are the puzzles and I would have been a happier camper had they been a wee bit more challenging. I must confess I bought it on impulse after playing the demo, believing the game would become more and more exciting as I would go along. Well, that was a disappointment, I'm sorry to say. The Ancient Spectres is a true rainy day game which I should have kept for that occasion instead or never purchased in the first place. But since it is not bad, 3 stars seem a fair rating to me. However, I suggest you try the demo first and see for yourself.

Hated this game!
This is my first time to complain about a game. The scenes were grainy, the hidden object scenes were grainy junk piles, the worst I have ever seen. The music made you feel like you had to hurry, not at all relaxing. I bought this game not realizing how bad it would be. Waste of money. I will be deleteing this game before I even finish it!

Great Game, Very Lengthy
I bought this game based on all of the great reviews I read on here and I must admit that it was what everyone said it would be! I love the traveling between the different time periods, it made for a very fun and lengthy game. I totally recommend it! I purchased the regular edition as I read the CE just plays a tad bit longer than the regular so I recommend the regular edition!

Glitchy
I agree with others: the time machine device was cool. However, the sounds was glitchy. Some of the movies had sound, most did not. I assume there was supposed to be sound (it felt like there should be).
Too many hidden object games, and not enough puzzles.
