You cannot go wrong with Puppetshow games!
I love the Puppetshow game series. I have never been disappointed. The challenge is excellent, storyline is engaging, and the graphics are very well done. Every time I see a Puppetshow game, I purchase it because I know it will be money well spent.

Attention Getting Game
When the Demo was over I was surprised and didn't realize how involved I had become while playing this. Talk about being absorbed! Had no idea a whole hour had passed.
Good game

HO-HUMM
Boy am I glad I played the demo and didn't just buy it based on the previous games. There is nothing really good to say about this game. Save your money

Back to the Past
Review based upon completion of the game.
This is the fourth installment of the Puppetshow series. The story is a bit out there: You are approached by the villain of the first three games to help her change the past and avoid the mess that was before. You find yourself in the past from the beginning, and the detective tells you that there was a portal. I assume that bit came in the bonus chapter of Lost Town, which I have not played (I only own the regular edition).
The Good:
+ graphics are a big step forward
+ cute evil cat puppet (in place of the mechanical spider)
+ some tough mini puzzles (had to consult the walkthrough on the Cupid one)
+ items are not placed back into repeating HO scenes
+ the hint function finally works outside of HO scenes
+ the silhouette HO scene was great...
The Neutral:
o ...but there was only one in the whole game
o one big and one medium sized mechanical spiders as "sight gag" (no interaction)
o the hint function only tells you that there is nothing to do in the current scene
o intro video has to be skipped every time you start the game
The Bad:
- the Tools fan is still annoying
- sometimes the game is a big "run around until you find the next thing to do fest"
Bottom Line: After the boring game 2 and the average third game this part is a big step in the right direction. You will need to play the first three games to understand the plot, but I can finally recommend a Puppetshow game.

Great!
Great game with really good visuals.. spooky visuals. I like the concept of scary puppets and this game pull it off real well. I love the mystery feel and there seem to be endless rooms to enter. Will consider to play other series of Puppetshow!
