what a little gem!
Apparently the "one star" raters are in need of hand holding and walkthroughs. This game requires thought and tho I am no rocket scientist, I found it appealing and tricky and it was fun to have a game that made you think! Very reminiscent of Tiny Bang which I also enjoyed. For those of you who like sparkles and twinkles and hints everywhere, this is not for you! I laugh when people say they will not buy games without a walkthrough! The point of these games is to use your wit and problem solving skills, Would love more of these than the games with the wrecked car, demons and vampires, lost island and someone hiding in a crypt!! Happy gaming!

At last something different
At first I wasn't sure about this game because unfortunately I read the reviews before downloading the game but some said the game was fun etc. so I tried it and love it, probably because it's something different and not as easy as a lot of games these days and also the hint button on some parts just doesn't exist so you either have to use your brain or if completely stuck get a hint off the forum members that have managed to figure out the parts where you're stuck. I would say that if you are looking for something different to the normal then at least give this game a try and see if it's for you.

Hooked!
I don?t know where Shaban is going but I know I will follow.
Completed the demo in 30 minutes and found it captivating. Having read some of the negative reviews from people who had difficulty finding their way round, I made sure I read the Tutorial before I started the game, and had little difficulty following the logic of the game.
I found the ?thought bubble? clues and the hints very logical, but you need to pay attention to what is being ?conveyed?. I missed the hint for the magnet the first time because I didn?t pay attention, so once I realised how the clues worked, it was ?all systems A-go?.
Just loved it, a definite buy for me.

Finally a Different Game!
This was such a refreshing change from the routine HOG's (which are getting VERY predictable and stale) and the redundant dash type TM games. This required some thought but was very logical. The characters were great and the story was different. Really enjoyed it!

How beautiful!
I was very moved by the emotional content of this game; there is a very Eastern European feel to it, with a wonderful sense of humor (there is a passing homage to Angry Birds!). It made me laugh more than once. The characters are engaging and quirkily rendered, and I SO want to save the sheep! At present I'm stuck at the bandits' cave, trying to figure out how to get the key to the cook's door. If anyone knows the answer, shoot me a message!

I hope the developers make more like this!
I sincerely hope the developers of Shaban make more like this. Playing is a delight all the way through.
Finding parts in hidden object scenes was made a lot of fun because sometimes the completed object has to be used on a creatures that jumps around, hiding behind this or that until it reaches a spot where you can use the object on it.
I only had to use a skip once in a mini-game because my hand wouldn't let me move and click the mouse quite fast enough at the end of it.
I enjoy games like this that force you to come up with interesting solutions to save the day, but some require mouse agility I just don't have anymore. Other than the one mini-game, no fast mouse movements and clicks are required.
The cartooning is great. It's a style we've seen before in this type of puzzle game.
Terrific break from the Adventure HOGs and the Dark and Eerie.

Very cute AND different game
Ik like this game a lot, nice graphics, story so far ok and lot of challenge. Also very hard without almost no help, but we can wait for the BF walkthrough (if they can figure it out haha).

Lovely story told in original, wonderful graphics
To reviewer before me: There's an arrow in the lower right part of the screen that lets you go downstairs and outside.
I really like this game, it is not easy, and it feels like you have to play for a while to get into the way of thinking. Everything is explained with pictures, there is no talking and almost no words at all.
The point is to help Shaban save his best friends, the sheep, from evil kidnappers.

Beyond Impressed.
This game has the cutest story line. Someone said they did not like it because there were no words. Just noises. The cut scenes were like a comic book with sound effects. The drawings were beyond amazing, detailed, and visually... stunning! With little words added afterwards, like one would put on a comic strip if they were bored.
The guy just wants to get his sheep back. He meets some great characters on the way.
The music was fitting. It was beautifully scored.
The challenge never ended. From beginning to end, it did not get tougher or easier. Was just delightful play.
There were only a few types of mini games, but many different styles. You get a sample of each during the trial.
Someone said it was similar to Tiny Bang Story. If you did not like that one you will NOT like this either.
There are skips. The icon changes on hot spots. There are helps, but in an extremely creative way. This is not a game for people that play the hidden object/puzzle/adventure games on easy. It is not terribly hard, just very creative.
Highly recommend if you like to be creative.

Best Game in Years
Talk about an all around game - this game has puzzles, hidden objects, strategy and a small amount of beat the clock. The story line is very moving. It is not an easy game but I feel you enjoy it more by having to work out all the complications that Shaban has to go through. It will not disappoint.
