Loved it! Didn't want to stop playing!
The storyline really drew me in. Beautiful and magical scenes. Couldn't wait to see what is around the corner. Good length of gameplay. I didn't want the story to end. Good challenge in some puzzles. One puzzle had a mistake though-mathematical puzzle, but that's minor. You have to return to a couple of HOS to complete them as you need to use items you have not found yet which was new for me. Overall, I loved it. Beautiful, fun and interesting. Another Surface masterpiece.

great game until they took a siesta
I was really looking forward to playing this game.. And I did, enjoy graphics, story line, and minigames which are really pretty good. Then I started the second half of this game and it was as if they let a whole new staff finish witing the game. The constant running back and forth between floors to place one item became demanding, boring and frustrating. And you cant really continue without placing that one item to advance. Thank god for the map, because I didn't remember where I was or was going at that point, it covers a very large area. Its really a shame, this could have been one of my favorite games.

Surface: Mystery of Another World
Played many of game over the years and may I say this is by far the FUNNIEST game I ever played! Use the HINT it does not show the objects you are trying to find it tells you where and what you need to do. A lot of different rooms. Playing with the hint it is still engaging.

Fun Game
Bought this cause of all the reviews. Really was a fun, enjoyable game. Nice and long and not too terribly hard, but enough to make you think. Not crazy about the real characters in it, and their mouths don't match the words, but I still had a great time.

10 stars!
I like HOGs okay, usually prefer adventure along with it. This game is sooooo awesome! It is VERY long! Just when you think it's over, there's a whole new place to explore. Also, if you play HOGs, you know that as you near the end, everything you pick up has an almost immediate use. It gets really boring. Not this game. You pick up stuff that you need to use in a HOS, and you don't know what until you find that scene. Also, some of the ways in which you use items in the game takes a bit of thought---also loved that! The visuals are stunning, and the storyline good. The minigames are a bit simple, but for once I DIDNT CARE, because the game itself is so good. This game is well worth the money!

A NEED TO PLAY / BUY
Great colors, every step is a game. Easy to manuver around, but a lot of things to do. MINI games are fun, and so is the HOS. Amust for all.
Enjoy.

Story a bit naff, but great puzzles and HO's
The story was not very engaging and the 'dropped' notes added no value. However, the puzzles were diverse and interesting and the HO's were double layered in that they need you to have collected stuff before you could complete them. The game was quite long, but the levels were different enough to keep you interested. I just wished that the map view changed when you had completed an area - just saves going back and forth unnecessarily.

Good game had some good aspects
I was divided on this game. There were some really challenging parts and some strange and random parts. The hidden object scenes were not horribly challenging but they did have objects that you could only get with interaction with items in your inventory. This was a neat addition. I don't recall any other games that include this the way this game does. This alone would made me think it was worth purchasing. There were quite a few different areas to search and inventory items were not always easily found or found close to area needed.
The storyline was strange and I am not sure it ever made a ton of sense. Honestly that doesn't make much of a difference for a lot of HOGs but I was more confused by why someone even thought of this storyline than how it worked with what I was doing.
Overall it is worth trying out if you like something a little different.

Great Hidden Object Game
This was one of the best I have played in a long time, I hardly ever give 5 stars to a game. This is one you want to play and keep for replay. Graphics are great, entertaining could not stopp playing.
