I always enjoy a little humor...
I enjoyed this game quite a bit.
Loaded in well.
Had no problem with the cursor.
Graphics were clear and full on my wide screen. Many varied scenes set in the past, the present and the future.
Location transitions were quick and smooth.
Music fit the scenes.
There were no voice overs but the writing was done quite well.
Story line was interesting and quite entertaining. Humorous responses.
I played the difficult mode and stayed away from hints. Just sat back and took my time. Game took me about 4.5 hours.
The items hidden in plain site but well hidden just the same.
Didn't hold my hand or lead me by the nose. Challenging but not really difficult. Enough to make it hold my interest.
This was a very entertaining and relaxing game.
Hope they make a sequel.

Blah game, worth a look if you can get it as a daily deal
This is a weird game.
The problem with it, is nothing seems to be done very well - like in an A game. It wants to be both a hidden object game and an adventure. But unlike modern HOPAs this is just disjointed and doesn't accomplish either very well.
The story is like "the fall triology" mixed with (take your pick from many games with waking up as a patient in a ward) same storyline of other games.
But I actually was drawn in by the story, it just wasn't edited very well - to long and thought if they kept the main/initial plot mystery going longer it would have been better, but the title gives it away.
You can skip the story parts, but then you'd be lost.
It's not bad in parts, it's just not good.
I don't know anything about the DEV, if it's a first game, very old game, or even who it is. The hidden object scenes were 'photo object' type and just didn't appeal to me ( ie said twine/string that you would use for parcels was rope). The adventure side in parts I thought was OK (not good)
Why some good games just leave you bored, and other bad/not great games can suck you in, I don't know. It's sort of sucked me in and quite enjoyed it. despite my negatives.
I just couldn't recommend it at full price. I got it as a DD.

Interesting adventure game, but short
This was an interesting adventure game. Interesting storyline, good challenges and puzzles, sound and graphics quite good, however, I was disappointed. I liked the trial game enough to purchase the full version, but was disappointed at how short it was. I'd gone through more than half the adventure/puzzles during the trial, and after purchasing, I'd finished the game in less than twenty minutes. Due to the nature of the story, you need a solid period of time to pass before playing again for it to be fun and to forget the plot surprises. The game is good, fresh puzzles, even fun, but if you're looking for an adventure game that will take time and last for a while, this may not be it.

Better Fun Than Expected
I bought this game on special and because it had an OK review. I enjoyed it more than expected.
Following the twists and turns of the story kept me interested and the graphics that changed from past to present to future were well depicted.
It's of average length, a reasonable challenge and worth a few hours of your time.

Average HO
Was very excited to see a time travel game, but sad to say I was let down buy the gameplay and lack of puzzles.
Not to mention it was a little on the short side, but ok if its a daily special and you've got a few hours to waste.
