Clue mistakes!
This game angered me because the creator's poor english created mistakes that made the game unfair. One item to find was a tube. I looked for all kinds of tubes and gave up, finally using the hint. What was highlighted as a tube was actually a tuba! In another scene we're asked to find a soccer ball. Tthe ball they wanted looked like a basketball. And in the very next HO scene, it WAS a basketball. What is a jug in one scene is considered a bottle. The exact same graphic in the next scene IS a jug.
I do not recommend this game! It's very frustrating!

very bad
this is the worst hidden object game you have ever had since i began to play Big Fish Games. some things were so well hidden you could hardly see them. A lot of guessing. the story line was entirely tooooo long. over all........it sucked.

Boring, boring, boring
I lasted only 15 minutes into the game. While it says you can skip the tutorial, you cannot. There's alot of gabbing and instruction. The time I spent was on 4 HOS in a row. No traveling, no storyline, nothing moving. The objects just lie there unmoving so the scene is stagnant.
Some items are misidentified and are small.
The game is timed which is a definite turnoff for me but it seems to give you enough time to find objects.
I don't know what happens if you run out of time as I didn't bother reading the instructions.
The music is repetitive and obnoxious.
The graphics are clear and well drawn but this is a no-buy for me.

Bad
This is a bad HO game. Items so small, even with hint you sometimes can't find them! The timer needs to go. I really tried to like this game, but it was not to be.

TIME CHRONICLES; The Missing Mona Lisa
Horrible game. Timer? Who needs a stressful timer? When is an apple not an apple? When its the wrong apple! Stupid game, no puzzles.

Bad game
I have played many of these games and i have to say the labeling of the object to find is really bad in this one. For instance.... they say look for a squirrel and i am looking for a bushy tailed squirrel, i see a chipmunk and for the heck of it i clicked on it and it is what they are calling the squirrel. not the same animal. That is just one of the crazy ones, oh and than they say an orange ball and i click on a orange ball and nothing, come to find out there was a basketball in the seen, really come on.

Not recommended
My major problem with this was the misnamed objects. There's also the problem of the same description used for different things - for example "sticks" used for chopsticks on one level and nun-chakas on the next!
Basically, totally boring, with poor graphics and worse English.
Definitely do not recommend.

So boring!
Although there is a long intro setting the gameplay into a storyline, the hidden object scenes are badly set out, terribly boring and repetitive. The objects are randomly placed all over the screen, with hardly any attempt to hide them, and, in the third scene I did, there were at least three objects that matched one of the list items. This storyline could have been made into an interesting HO game with a better attempt at HO screen design. Thankfully, I tried it before deciding to buy, and was very glad I did.

English as a second language and other challenges
Beautiful art work and a decent bit of music do not a great, or even good, game make.
Somewhere in the world, someone will make their fortune correcting English in PC games and someone else will edit and repair their stories. They can start here.
The opening scenes involve reading a monologue that reminded me of all the grammar gone bad in the world. Most of it would and should have been easy to correct. Unfortunately, after that intro, I surmised things would not get better. And they didn't.
So after extensive instructions, you are basically going to do two HOS for each location, one in the past, one in the present. Does anyone beside me see a problem in a list that includes "bench" and you are looking at a beach scene with a dozen identical benches? Or "black camera" where there are several? How about a time gauge that moves glacially? Or past and present scenes that are almost interchangeable in the time frame of their contents?
With no interest in the storyline, no excitement in the chase, and nothing innovative, I'm giving this one the heave ho!

Nope
Don't like to be timed, Don't want points. Too many objects the same. When there are five pillows in the picture, you have to click on all of them
