OUTSTANDING ! THE FAVORITE OF MY LAST 46 GAMES
I had to write a review and thank the developers for a beautifully crafted game on all levels. My absolute favorite part was the beautiful soothing piano music and being an old Hallmark artist, I fell in love with the graphics. I just kept studying the details of the scenes. The 3D and special effects of snow lightly falling. On and on. I could have just let the sound music play in my living room while I read a book. That's how pleasing it was. Often times in these games, the music starts to drive through your brain and becomes an irritant and annoying. This music was quite the opposite. Loved it. Getting back to the graphic scenes, I want to point out that as I studied each scene in detail, I noticed how the artists incorporated more than one light into each scene. Like an actual indirect or direct light. This made it so there were no creepy, dreary scenes. The whole game was beautifully lighted. It had plenty of atmosphere for sure but not dark. With the exception of one spot in the sewer on purpose. And the developers had special powers for that. I loved the bonus game which resolved the entire story line. I'm getting more away from HOG but again, the artwork in these made them more enjoyable than other games I've played and the items were large enough to not get eye strain. I'm not an expert level, I play at casual or relax level on purpose, cause that's what I want. No pressure. Been there done that in my life. I guess that why I could take my time and enjoy the music and study the artwork. Everything kept my attention throughout. I will point out the one flaw was the quality of a few of the figures. They did not match the level of excellence of all the other elements of the game. But I'm knit picking. Hopefully they'll work on that one point. Its minor. The game is totally worth the price of the Collector's Edition. Lots of extras. Really glad I bought it and will definitely watch for this developer's next game. No ghosts, no death, no darkness. Lets relish stories about life. My favorite of the last 13 months. Thank you Blam. Thanks Big Fish.

The Game Itself.....Wonderful!!!!! Bonus game??????
This was a wonderful game, different types of HOS, color and graphics, definitely a buy for those who like snow, vivid color, story segues. My only question, was that on the bonus play, it seems that we ended with what we started with...dogs...collars? I may have missed something, but overall it is a fun, long, game that I am very glad I purchased. It is well worth the money (and I am not big on CE games because I've play so many SE that were just as good). Have fun, it is a good game. Especially if you have dogs...which I do, two labs and a golden retriever!

Amazing!!!!!!!
It's an amazing game that involves two of my favourite things, mystery and dogs! it can be as challenging as you want it to be and i thoroughly enjoyed playing the demo. because of the brilliance of the demo o have decided to buy the game to play all of it. I just hope the rest of the game is as good as the beginning!:):)

Excellent from start to finish!!
What an excellent game from start to finish. As a veterinarian, this game was definitely for me!!! I do have preference for games having to do with animals and "fairy tale" themes.
*Great graphics - some dark scenes (typical for these types of games) as well as some beautiful scenes (wish more games had these). Music and sound effects were unobtrusive, pleasant actually. Many different scenes throughout the entire game.
*Storyline - a mix between sinister and romance. Easy to follow. Some reading involved in order to follow the story to its fullness.
*Great interactive puzzle games. Some easier than others, which is fine by me. Sometimes I like the easy, fun, light-hearted games (e.g. matching a bird with its feather, mixing colors, etc.).
*Enjoyed the hidden object games as well. They seemed to tie in with the story quite well.
*Sometimes had difficulty figuring out my next move....used the strategy guide a few times. There was a map but it really did not help at all. Quite a bit traveling back and forth to scenes but this did not bother me - it tests my memory :)
*Long playing time - totally worth the money for a CE game. The bonus was quite long as well - some old scenes and some new ones. I liked the "super abilities" that were gained in the bonus game.
***Would love to see more games like this...more dark AND light features combined together in one game.

Loved this game
Must be my favourite game for a while. It's a long game and the bonus chapter is also long. Loved every minute of it and was disappointed when I finished. HO were good, not just a clutter but were challenging. Loved the puzzles. Good story line.
GREAT game.

Main Game Excels - Bonus Chapter Falters
I really enjoyed this game but I found the "prequel" bonus chapter anticlimactic. However, the main part of the game is delightful and I enjoyed the canine theme. Even if you don't love dogs, Pippa will melt your heart and send you racing to the rescue. The hidden object scenes are only moderately challenging but are lovely and have clever interactive features. There is a good variety of puzzles and they all apply to the advancement of the plot, opening new areas to explore or gifting you with inventory items. While deserving of the rave reviews this game has received, I was puzzled that no one else seemed disappointed with the bonus chapter. It does have some pretty nifty extra features but as a prequel to the story, I found in lacking the heart the main game has.

Okay Game
The game is a good CE. The only thing I didn't like was that the map, although interactive, didn't let you know what areas still needed attention.
-graphics are beautiful
-music, standard
-mini games, I skipped a lot of them, skip button charges fast
-HO's are interactive and not too bad
-There are several features in the game I have not seen in others. Would have liked for them to be introduced early in the game.
Worth the time and money

Fun game
I enjoyed this game. The map and guide was incredibly helpful and the storyline was easy to follow. The transitions were well done and I didn't have any lag time.

THIS IS GOOOOOOOOD!!!
This is one of the games I would always recommend to anyone. A great story line, original and interesting, music is wonderful and enjoyable, and the scenes are so aesthetic.
As a great animal lover, I was glad that all the animals were saved at the end!
I especially liked the original solutions, the lack of a crowbar puzzles, to call them. For example, when you encounter weeds, you don't find shears to cut them with, but instead, you have to break a mirror, find a handkerchief, pick a mirror shard with it, and then cut them off.
Challenging!

fierce tales The dogs heart collecters
GOOD One this is a very worthwhile game , lots of thinking a lot of looking enought to keep us all busy, the graphics are great, the hos's are very good, some hard to spot, but not too bad at all, love the music and the storyline, the puzzles are ok I am not the best at puzzles, but found these not too hard and there is always the skip button if needed.Add the map to get you to places and you have a good days entertainment.
ENJOY
