Good
But way too short. Liked that the characters actually talked to you, unlike in other games I have played. How do we find out who makes each game so that we can buy ones from the makers that we like? It doesn't say in the description of each game.

Very fun game!
I played this game on expert mode, and found it to be fun and challenging. I estimate that I played for 8-10 hours, so I thought it was a good value.
The hidden object scenes were well done, not too difficult but enough of a challenge to be interesting. The clues and items were straightforward and the graphics were great. I used hints a few times to help me find the last item. The puzzles were fun and a good challenge-I only skipped one that I couldn't figure out.
The story was good, although a glitch towards the end skipped all but the first line of dialogue, so I had trouble a few times figuring out what to do next.
While the map feature was quite helpful for the most part, at times I had trouble figuring out where to go. For instance, the map showed that I had found all of the clues in an area, but the walkthrough (on big fish games website) showed me where I had missed breaking open a barrel for a clue.
This is one of the better HOG that I have played with Big Fish Games, and I definitely recommend it!

The worst game I've played so far
The main thing is all there accents through out the game you can barely understand them. Making the whole story line useless. I didn't understand any of it. The clock games where way to hard and the skip option took forever. I was bored the whole way through.

Abit Average
Overall this games is abit average.
Graphics good
Sound good
HOS ok
BUT!!!!!
The last part was a waste of time and didnt have anything to do with the story line that I could make out.
The ending was to sudden and you didnt know what the out come was.
So If they do a next episode they should have a look at how they end it, It seemed as if they ran out of ideas and just gave up.
Read other reviews first and try it before you buy it.

Lovely Victorian Mystery
This is a beautiful game - extraordinarily done artwork -
... and while it has it's little share of the macabre, it is delightful to see colorful flowers and scenery and to encounter sweet puppies and bunnies that looked like the real Mccoy.
I am sure that I will play this many times as I have Victorian Mysteries Woman in White and will get lost for hours in the antique atmosphere. They just don't make stuff the way they used to then.
Thank you as always, Felix.

My love for Everything French came Rushing Back at me.
I LOVE THIS GAME! Not much of a review, but that's how I feel. I do not care one bit that there is no hint button. Back in the old-school adventure game days (and I'm only 32) there were few walk-throughs to be had-so you had to get the brain working and figure things out on your own. With this game, I had to put on my thinking cap a few times but that made the game more interesting to me. Everything follows a logical pattern. So if you get stuck, actually imagine that you ARE the detective that's there...and what would YOU do next? This strategy worked well for me.
I adore the French accents, but French is my second language so I was pleased to play a game that had something besides the typical American voice-acting. I did see some gripes about this (I honestly don't know why) but it adds depth to the story-it would not have been as believable if everyone talked without an accent during a game set in early France.
This game does NOT hold your hand. You are a detective, meant to collect and photograph evidence, interview characters and eventually solve the mystery. Too often in games, the developer does most of the thinking for us, but not in this game. We are often left to our own creative devices--I have been having a hoot playing through this and I long for more detective story games to SOLVE much along the same lines as this one.
Graphics are crisp and clear; hidden object scenes and puzzles are spaced out well and not over-used. The story is brilliant and flows smoothly (I was also intrigued that it was based on a book that I will now have to find and read). Another perk about the story is that it is NOT the same old formula that players are getting sick of. It's not predictable and it IS unique--it's what we've been wishing and waiting for!
Don't let the "no hint button" scare you away. Put on your Sherlock Holmes outfit and play with confidence-you will figure it out! A must buy, and I am positive it will be added to my favorites-rarely do I give out 5 stars.
As for length: I've been playing these types of games for several years, both PC and console gamer- so I consider myself an expert-I'm not finished yet, only a little less than 1/2 way through, and I've spent at least two hours, if not more. I read everything (newspaper clippings, etc) and often take a look at the evidence gathered so far, so I thoroughly read the journal. If I were to guess, for me this game should run, for an expert player who takes their time, at least 5 hours to complete. And the journal is well done also. I like the concept of 'tabbed' journals where you can go to see specific things: Evidence collected, Character Bios, Story, etc. The task list is kept separate as well but is also imbedded in the map, which is also done well and should help anyone who might get stuck. It shows you were you need to go and for what (evidence, puzzle or hidden object scene). A lot of detail went into the small things, and that adds up to many great things.
Worth a free game coupon at the very least, but well worth paying full price for, IMO. Happy gaming and I hope to see more games like this! (Hint, Hint developers)!

Could do better
For me I feel this game would be too short, I completed the demo in 20 minutes, does seem to have a good mix of HOS and puzzles, but again the puzzles are too easy for someone who regularly plays HO games, would probably suit a beginner

WHERE'S THE HINTS IN VICTORIAN MYSTERIES THE YELLOW ROOM????
I played a total of 15 minutes before uninstalling this game. Not only was it very,very boring but it went nowhere extremely fast! I was shocked to discover after a few minutes that there were NO HINTS IN THIS GAME! In the Hidden Object portions..yes, puzzles..yes The rest of the game NO!!!!!! It leaves you hanging after only a few minutes with only two directions in which to go neither of which render you a clue in heaven as to where to go next.
This is NOT a game I would RECOMMEND for the avid HOG fan. It falls quite short of the mark as far as being a challenge and the graphics really aren't even worth mentioning. The music was good. It was soothing,classical music which provided a pleasant respite from the grandbabies caterwauling,lol. As I stated previously, this is NOT a game I would recommend and would NEVER PURCHASE it.

Save your money!
I really enjoyed the free hour of game play and based on other reviews purchased this game. It is horrible! Save your money! Only if you are a rank beginner who has to have a lot of hand-holding should you even slightly consider purchasing this game. It is really short, offers no challenge and is a total waste of time.
