4.5 stars Very Unique. Hours of laughter.
City of Fools is a unique game. Structured very differently from any other adventure.hidden object game.
There are a few typo's here and there but hardly worth noting. The game is VERY quirky with a, shall we say, "unique" sense of humour. The goal of the game is to get an interview with the mayor and ask some pointed questions about a suggestion of a UFO landing there.
The downfall of the game is, once you acquire a ticket to get to see the mayor, you can head off and the game will end *sort of*. In fact it is difficult to tell that you have actually finished the game. The ending of the game is weak and does leave one wondering if they are indeed finished.
There are 122 tasks you need to complete before you head off to find the mayor whom is hiding on a lone island in the middle of the river.
To complete these tasks you must jump back and forth between various residents, street corners and stores. The in game map will assist you with how to get to where you wish to go provided you remember where it is you need to be. The map does not provide you with details of homes etc, simply with numbers in which you need to keep straight which number is actually the number of the home you need to go to. On the plus side, if you really do not wish to go door to door trying to figure out what you have forgotten, there is an in game help built into the task manager book.
In all I had loads of fun, some frustrations, and once you get past the hilarious if not some what "stinky" humour, you can plan to spend many many hours of fun in this game.
One word of warning, the BF walk through is far from complete. Use this only as a guide and check in the forum for answers to what you are stumped on.
In all it gets a two thumbs up from me. Well worth the buy.

Goofy, funny game
I sorted this game into my top ten games I have payed so far.
Ok story-line which does not matter much in the game, more like the quests that matters.
I have found Easter European old block references hilarious and there are some funny insider jokes that some might not get.
Voice overs are similar to Peanuts cartoon wha wha wha wha's.
You might get lost in the city at first but the map can help a lot.
You might want to be careful spending your money tho. Get the quests first after that visit the shops.
Clear non cluttered graphics, goofy characters, funny quests.

Get lost!
The developers must have wanted to test the memory skills of the players... large map with lots to do. would love too see another edition of this game. Run around town finding stuff for others earning money and occasionally stepping in a pile of poo.. lol too funny!

Strangest HOG - But Quite Satisfying!
This was not an ordinary HOS game. The story was different - the actions unpredictable...who would have thought the milk was NOT for the baby...and logic is definitely not the atypical method of getting through the game. Never-the-less it was a blast and I'm glad I bought it. My daughter hates HOS games but she thought this was funny and not at all "routine". Thanks for the change!!

Fun task oriented game!
My 7 year old son and I played this game. I like it because it's task oriented! It definately tests your memory. Mine is not as good as my 7 year olds! It would have taken me a lot longer if he had not helped me. I don't think the themes are too adult for someone his age. He's almost 8. There is a little "bathroom humor" but it didn't bother him. There are a few scantily clad people but it's not obscene. I recommend keeping your own notebook to remember where you have been and where you should return to. Figure out how to use the map & you won't be wandering around aimlessly like we did at first :) This one has been out awhile but definately worth playing. There is a walk-thru and some good help posts in the forumn. Happy Gaming :) Thanks Mom for getting us this one!!

Quite different: goofy, challenging and hilarious
This was quite different from other games and really kept me entertained although, as others have mentioned, the extent of scatological humor is childish.
Other reviewers have given good tips:
Go through the tutorial to learn how to use the map
Write down who needs what, at which house number
The in-game help is minimal, but many players have posted help in the forum.
I found it quite challenging (there are many tasks that require multiple steps to complete, and a lot of "outside the box" thinking), and enjoyed that it offered many hours of play. The characters' appearances and "voices" made me laugh.
For me, worth it for its uniqueness, challenge and length of play.

The "Bestest" Game Ever
This is a game unlike no other. If your are bored with the hidden object games, match 3 games, marble popper, time management, then play this game. Completely challenging. Humorous. Totally different.

Hours of fun! fun! fun!
My first thought was... stupid game... then I played it. OMG! This game was absolutely addicting and I even kept a very intricate journal of it. I've been a member of BFG for three years and this is the most fun I've ever had. Love it!

Not fun at all!
I demoed this game when it was offered on one of those weekly specials and I never even finished the free trial. Judging by all the glowing reviews, I was really prepared to go on a joy ride with this one but it just fell flat. I couldn't stand the buzzing kind of mumbling that passed for speech, and the oddly rendered features of the characters made me wince to look at them. I wouldn't have minded having to take notes as to where to go and what to do, as that's what an adventure game is supposed to be, but I just couldn't stomach the characters I met during the trial and I had to delete it. I was really disappointed because I like UFO themes and I wanted to know what the story was, but I guess it's not to be. If you want to play a game with a fool in it, play "The Fool" instead. You don't need a whole city full.
