played for 4 minutes then deleted
It really is a pile of rubbish.... Don't know what is going on with BFG at the moment, but this is just another example of a run of really bad games.... I am reallymissing the MCF style of bigger games, where you really thought it was worth spending almost 11 a time.... nowadays can complete a CE in about 2.5 hours...

Very Good
I don't understand the negative reviews from these others especially when they only played for minutes, you cannot judge a game in that time. The objects were NOT "mini" size they were regular size, I believe that you must change the resolution as one of the other reviewer said, the one that rated this game a 5 star. I agree with her. This is a good HO game and puzzle game. Altho I am not a fan of hopping back and forth in a game this one wasn't too bad. I am not into playing music of any kind in a game so I can not rate that, but the visual and graphics were good, yes they were a lttle "cartoonish" but were good. I think the negative reviewers like all that "dark" side game junk I do not, I like clean games and they have not been making them too often. There are too many "dark, blood, vampires and etc" but to each his own. This is a good game.

Snore
Where do I begin.......cartoonish and items are too small to look for, gave me a headache. Colors were ok and story line was passable. Did not enjoy this game at all.

Cases of stolen Beauty
This wasn't a Case of Stolen Beauty it was a case of Stolen Game.
I can't really tell you much about the game because at about 4 mins it froze on me. I backed out and tried it again and at the same point it froze again, oh well !

Lousy Game
Very poor game. Difficulty seeing search items as the visuals aren't real good. Hint function is poor. Got stuck at one point and couldn't continue because the hint wouldn't help you move on through the trouble spot. Dumped the game after 30 minutes. Did not like it.

Out-dated and boring
This game struck me as being somewhat out-dated.
It didn't cater for wide-screen.
The scenes were in the style of the original hidden object games - drawn and angular with item list at side.
Can't really comment on the story itself as i found myself hitting the delete key very quickly.

What a shame.....
..to go to all the trouble, time and money to make a game and end up with this.
The storyline isn't terrible; You are a journalist for a magazine and have been sent to Rio during Carnivale to interview a celebrity named Louise. Apparently there is some mystery afoot. Not a bad story.
When you get there, though, the dialogue between characters is presented in comic strip form (not the first time we've seeen this). There are no voice-overs and quite a bit of reading. The conversation is a bit juvenile. You have a hint, an item list, inventory, goal list and two modes of gameplay. I chose casual with no tutorial.
The first room was a colorful cafe with lots of super tiny stuff in it. Finding things was reduced to clicking and hoping to hear a ding because it meant you found something. You could check the list then to see what you found. Not a fun way to have to play. With this method and the hint system, you could finish a room.
I almost seems as if the developers are very inexperienced in what makes a good game and should maybe play a few to see what they need to strive for
. I didn't find any puzzles to play. The cocktail did not seem like a puzzle to me. You played a small HO scene and gathered the items for the cocktail but it made itself, you didn't get to mix it up.
The dialogue for the boyfriend of Louise when he is talking with Eva was stiff and cold. He seems to be quite helpless and leaves things he should be doing for Eva to do. After getting his drink and finding his flowers to give to Louise, you are asked to get rid of the butterflies because she is afraid of them. Oh, spare me. By this time I was disgusted with the whole thing and uninstalled it.
I have to agree with the other reviewers; this one's a stinker.

a stolen hour!
A very poorly constructed game.
Poor everything and especially annoying musical background.
The objects are tiny on my PC and not clearly defined.
A waste of game time IMHO
