Good, But too long.
Alright. I know this is an older game, but it just seemed to drag on for me. I liked the idea of investigating the characters, but I think that there were too many characters to investigate.
That was really my main thing. There was something else that I didn't like about it, but it's just me nitpicking: some items blend way too much in. It's impossible to find some!
okay, now that I'm done saying all of the negatives, here's some positives:
The story is really good. It's short and to the point: Madame saw her fate, and calls you in to see who's going to kill her. Simple, but it works.
The ending was really good too. Not only did it help me answer whether the detective was a boy or a girl (I don't know, I've been wondering that...I'm odd okay?) But it was just...wow! I didn't see it coming, and it was nice because, not to give anything away, it ties another game of the series into it.
The game play is good. You pick where you look for stuff, and you solve puzzles. Simple enough. The puzzles are realitively easy and solvable.
So, that's pretty much all I have to say. I do recommend the game, but be prepared for it to take forever to beat the game.

Yep, it has replay value
As many people on here pointed out, the game indeed has replay value. Since the whole game is about playing 5 or 6 HO scenes over and over again (with little relief in-between), if you like it the first time, why wouldn't you like it the 300th time? Enjoy.

Madame Fate is more challenging than the last one and I love the changing objects hidden in the scenes. The sound is great too.
I Love Madame Fate a lot more!

Family Safe
top fav or all times...
Being a Christian, and love playing Hidden Object games with my Grandkids, it is difficult to find Godly, unsatanist, unparanormal, ungodly game. Our favorite is Madame Fate,

"How could they not LOVE Madame Fate?"
This is a title you cannot miss. It has mystery, glamour, lovely scenes, a good soundtrack, morphing objects that defy your sight and even a cat that hisses at you ^.^
In "Madame Fate" you are, once again, a master detective investigating an obscure story, this time set in a Carnival.
It has been foreseen that someone will kill the fortune teller at the stroke of midnight. Your task is to investigate each worker and workplaces in order to discover who will do it - and try to avoid it if you can.
With a great attention to detail, it also has one of the shortest lenghts /: And that's the only fault to me.

Great pure HOG in the MCF series
This review is based on a complete playthrough of the game:
Long Review: TL;DR at the bottom.
This game takes place after Ravenhearst. There are some nod's to Huntsville in the 'dialog', so kudos for that. NOTE: This is NOT Dire Grove - this is a pure HO game with a very light 'story' sprinkled over the top.
The game: The graphics are much improved over Ravenhearst. I didn't get the eye strain trying to find the objects that I did in that game. From my geeky CS background, it's a step backward (what they did in Ravenhearst was very cool - see my review there), but for playability it's a huge plus. That doesn't mean the objects are easy to find. Maybe a tad easier, but still challenging, especially on your first playthrough. They are 'scenes' not random piles of junk. Big plus for that.
Like Ravenhearst - this game is timed. In 'relaxed mode' you have more time for each chapter, and there are loads of chapters (15). For the first chapter you get 35 minutes in 'detective' mode and 90 in relaxed. I don't know if the time increases in later chapters in detective mode. Each chapter adds one new scene to the game, so you do revisit the same scenes several times (but not each chapter - after you get three or four it starts selecting from the ones you've done).
If the timer runs out - which it did for me a couple of times during the puzzles (I'll get to that), it just resets that 'chapter' and you go through it again with a different list of objects to find - which should be much easier since you've just been through the scenes.
There are two types of puzzles. The first is to unlock a new scene - these are pretty straightforward word scrambles, or hangman, or make a bunch of word from nine letters. The second (the 'real' puzzles) come at the end of each chapter. These are challenging - no directions, no hints, click on everything and try to figure out what's going on.
I 'hotlined' through a few of them: this gives you a penalty of less time for the next chapter. These puzzles made less sense to me that the ones in Ravenhearst (those were Rube Goldbergesque machines). The timer keeps running while you work on the puzzle. So if you start out with 60 minutes, and it takes you 45 minutes to find all of the objects, you have 15 minutes left to solve the puzzle.
There are morphing objects. Finding those unlocks 'special' scenes where every object you find adds time to the timer. The map (list of scenes really - you don't 'move' around like a HOPA) tells you what scenes have them, so you know when you've found them all. You also gain bonus time for finding three objects quickly (I don't know the exact time, but pretty much clicking from one to the next).
A lot of scenes have only two objects to find, but you have to find 10-15 of each of them. This becomes a problem with the hint system, since a hint can help you find one, but it doesn't count toward your total till you find all of one type.
The 'total' I mentioned above: Like Ravenhearst, you have to find X amount of objects across all the scenes to move on to the next chapter (typically the total number of objects minus two I think). You get only five hints a chapter, so use them wisely. Personally, I always saved them till the end when I needed five to move on then used the hints for those objects I just couldn't find.
The game keeps track of your total time, so you can replay it - the game will give you different object lists, just like if you 'failed' a chapter - and try to beat your best time. The game comes with a premade 'top ten' list of times to beat.
TL;DR: Bottom Line - If you want a straight HO game with scenes that actually look like scenes and not random piles of junk, this is your game. It's challenging, it's plenty long, and it's replayable: you can either replay it right away to beat your best time - same scenes with different objects to find, or wait a while and try it again when the scenes aren't still fresh in your mind. The graphics are improved over Ravenhearst (the 'prequel') - no more eye strain.
Totally recommend this game for people tired of 'junkpiles' but still looking for a good straight HO game that will give them lots of time for their money.
