Loads of Fun & Great Value
Third in the series, Book of Oricles is as enjoyable and challenging as the first two.
Lots of positives have been said by other reviewers and I agree with all the acolades but just want to add - DON'T SKIP THE END CREDITS - the voicover is priceless and you get to sing along with little Jessie!
Happy gaming

Flux is finally back
I find this addition a little more challenging from the other ones, but do enjoy it.
As for sound of the game, I do mute my sound. Did listen for a bit and it was good.
If you bought the other two and did not find them hard then I would suggest you buy this one, but if you felt the last one challenging, then you will be challenged with this one.
I also was surprised it was not a collection series.

Huge disappointment
The game was tedious, repetitive and had none of the interesting interaction with historical figures. The first game was genius, the second OK, the third I'm sorry I bought because I'll never finish it.

Nice comeback from Family Flux
I must admit, I liked the Book of Oracles better than the previous two. Because it was a little bit more challenging than the others.
Of course the story, visual and sound was great as always.
I really liked that there were many remarks about famous Scientists involved in the storyline.
Great game.

Up to the same great standard of the first two ...
I have really enjoyed the Flux Family series so far. In this latest instalment the graphics are still crisp and excellent throughout and this game has been very cleverly put together. The mini games aren't hard, but I don't mind as prefer not to get stumped on them. The atmosphere is very good throughout the game too and it is not a gloomy game and the storyline so original and interesting. Thank you to the developers for such an enjoyable play. You won't be disappointed in the slightest with this latest instalment!

Extremely unique and challenging
I had never played these Flux games before and it took a LOT of getting used to. Luckily the hint button will help a lot, and I about wore mine out finally finishing the game. It is nothing like any other, and VERY long and intriguing. There are a lot of puzzles which sometimes are not explained well, and so different that my illogical mind just moved me to the skip button a lot. The story is very unique, graphics are absorbing, Just the right amount of HOGS.
No ghosts, just traveling through time and helping put machines together for the likes of Sir Isaac Newton and Einstein..I have never played anything like this, and am not certain if I really liked it, personally, but it was one wild ride, and never boring.

A Lot of Fun!
I liked the storyline and that it wasn't too hard, but challenging for my level of expertise. I like the kind of search and apply the components to a larger item with some hidden object games. There are enough mini-games to keep me challenged, too. Every time another Flux Family Secrets come out, I'm sure to buy it!

Flux Family Secrets Returns to Greatness with Game #3
The first Flux game is a classic. The second one, "Rabbit Hole" was a disappointment as it was too easy and seemed to rely on fans to purchase. This one was a great improvement to the challenge and variety of puzzles. In addition, I love the throwbacks to the first game in both scenery and items within the puzzles. The first one is still the best but this is a close second.

Another hit for the Flux Family!
Yes, I thoroughly enjoyed the first two installments of the Flux Family, so I was happy to see the arrival of a new episode... and I was not disappointed, not in the least.
Beautiful crisp graphics, a soundtrack which never gets annoying, just the right amount of HOS, lots of puzzles, lots of interactive elements to find... yes, the gameplay definitely has it all. Some of the puzzles may be just too easy, but that's OK. There are plenty of other things to keep your brains occupied.
Another great thing about this game is, that it goes on and on and on. There is practically no end to the different scenes you have to explore. So you really get your money's worth in gaming time. And the storyline is quite funny with the different historical scientists you meet and have to help out in their research.
So, for those among you who haven't done it yet, grab your chance and meet the Flux Family.
