Short, but Sweet!
Despite the bevy of HOGs, "Witches' Legacy" is one of the few that will run on my particularly small Netbook, and I'm glad it did! The graphics are beautiful (even if I find the use of live actors a bit strange and a little too reminiscent of '90s games), and the hidden object scenes are extremely enjoyable, as are the other puzzles added in.
There was a bit of running between scenes, but nothing terrible. The house (where all the play takes place) is laid out in a manner that mostly allows for ease of transitions, although there were times where I forgot where and when to go.
My main problem is how short the game was! For the $2.99 special, I can't complain, but it would not be worth the normal price! The ending was abrupt and unsatisfactory, and I finished the game in a weekend, playing only at night in between dinner and sleep -- not a long time at all!

Witches' Legacy: The Charleston Curse
This was a really fun game, the storyline draws you in right away and you really start to feel for these characters. Voice acting was great. This game really made me think, I had to use the hint button quite a bit because I couldn't remember where I had seen something that I wouldn't need until much later. Good use of the items and not making it "too easy" for us. The ending kinda sets up for a sequel (I played the SE version, not sure if CE has a different bonus ending or what) and if so that would be great :)

WOW- WHAT FUN!!
This is a must buy!! Great everything. Just the right balance of HO and adventure. It took me a while to finish it so for me it was well worth the purchase. Also a big plus was the easy hint system. I am looking forward to more of this company's (Elefun) games. An absolute gem!!!

A good game for a new HOG player
The graphics where amazing and I so hoped the game play would follow suite, sorry to say it was just OK. I completed the hour demo in about 35 minutes in advanced mode; I should of realized that that would be an overall indication of how short the game would be.
When you are a HOG junkie, you download them all trying to find games that can compete with the likes of MCF series or Raincliff; Sadly this one does not.
It's just OK, not bad, not by any means in my top 10, BUT if you are a newer HOG/Adventure player this game is perfect for you. No real challenging puzzles or HOG scenes. The journal will help guide you along the correct path.
If the game play matched the graphics and video cut scenes this would of been a home run. I would have to give it 3 stars just because of the graphics, without I would of rated it lower. Just not enough of challenge for me.

Enchanting Game
Loved the story line helping the little girl. Nice atmosphere and the graphics are good. However, there are a lot of hidden objects. My only issue is that the game kept going back to the same Hidden Object places and you pick up some of the same items, even though a new useful one is gained. The mini-games are good -- not too hard.
