Really fun game!
Not your typical HO game. This game made me think, solve unique puzzles, and use my brain. Such a good time. I play a lot of games and this one is not to be missed. Loved it!

WAS I SUPRISED !!
I had overlooked the Cadenza games and then finally decided to try one. This was the first one I played. I must say I was pleasantly surprised! This game hooked me on the Cadenza games. It is very different from other hidden object games. The twists and turns make this a great mystery and HO game. Music is exceptionally good and fits the story so well. Characters and graphics are very well done.
Yes, I now look for new Cadenza games.
It really sold me on them and I haven't been disappointed yet.
Don't be like me, give the demo a try!!
You too may be surprised.

Fantástico!!
I absolutely loved everything about this game! So fun and relaxing. Gorgeous graphics,with beautiful Cuban scenery and wonderful Spanish accents! The games and Hop's were fun and interactive. The music was perfect as well, I kept my speakers on the whole time where usually I turn the sound off.
Mad Head games should be changed to Mad about you games! I can't think of one game they've done that I haven't thoroughly enjoyed, as a matter of fact many of my most favorite games are by them.
I love the scenes in their games well rendered no lurid colors, not overly done with something in every single spot to were you are overwhelmed nor too sparse just the perfect amount.
Not only is the game visually stunning but MadHead always tells a story so perfectly, it unfolds throughout the game play, hop's even the items you find to use to open things tie into the story!
My only negative is the game was short, I know it felt shorter because I was enjoying it so much, but it really was kind of short. I wish I'd purchased the CE so I could have played longer. This is a game I will definitely play again.
Bravo MadHead, Fantastico!!

Oh for a Night in Old Havana! Great Game!!
This is posted after playing the entire game.
This, of course, is a sequel and while it is somewhat like the others, it is different in its own right. I found just about everything in the game fun and can't wait to play it again. I guess my desire to visit Cuba one day plays a part in my enjoyment of the game.
Graphics were well done. This developer almost always comes through. Voice overs and music were fantastic. Effects were good also and went along with the story.They did a super job on them. I particularly liked the background for some reason. Normally I don't pay much attention to them, but I found myself getting absorbed in the scenes.
The challenge was just about right for me. I am not one to sit and ponder those mini games. These offered a challenge, but weren't enough to drive me straight to the skip button. The hidden object scenes were excellent. Not just piles of junk. They were well hidden, but in an orderly manner. Also there is a variety of scenes which breaks up the time a bit for me. The tools are several levels of difficulty, from which I chose the custom. You can set the skip and hints to a quicker time. Also there is an interactive map which I used quite a bit when I would get stuck.It does show where there are things to be done. I like that.
Really enjoyed the story. I was immersed from the very beginning and while it did have elements from the other games, it too was a little different. I won't go into the story itself. Big Fish does a great job laying the foundation for you, but I will say once I got into the story during the demo, I was hooked and it continued all the way through the game.
Again, this is a great game. Play the demo and I think you too will be looking for a night in Old Havana. See you there!

A WORK OF ART!
Preferred Havana Nights to the previous Cadenza games. Storyline was interesting and flowed smoothly. Gamers who may become attached to the earlier stories seem reluctant to be accepting of this one that is excellent in it's own right.
For this gamer, Havana Nights was entertaining and unique--a pleasant change from magical mystical that has been sorely overdone. Still, who doesn't like dragons. I do!
New Orleans' reputation in the craft of voodoo and witch craft is world renown and mostly overdone by the big screens. However, Havana Nights was a great blend of New Orleans' jazz and the ancient art of Chinese herbalists. Mad Head Games did their research and presented a work of art.
For me, when the story is interesting, the game is worth playing especially with Mad Head Games Developers.
Enjoy! -Mama Mia-

Pretty awesome & unique
I really-really enjoyed this Cadenza episode. It had a twist, its own character, a unique aesthetics and I couldn't get enough. So yeah... totally worth it. Hope to see more of it in the near future (focus on the word "near"). cheers

I should have gotten the CE
To be honest I'm not a massive fan of the other "Cadenza" games. I usually try the demo but they never get me hooked like other games do. As I recently finished "MCF: Key to Ravenhearst" I was looking for something different and more colorful and exotic. I only tried this game because I'm quite interested in Cuba and would love to visit Havana. So I decided to buy this game and I don't regret it!
The storyline is different from many other hidden object games since you are not a detective but a young man who is accused of murdering your own brother. The cut scenes are wonderfully done, the characters are believable and the voice overs are utterly lovely. The HOS were easy enough to play and there were not too many of them. The puzzles in this one are not complicated, so you most likely won't get frustrated while you play.
Sadly, it was quite a short amusement. The SE took me about 2 1/2 hours to finish.
So, all in all a little charming game if you want to take a break from all the dark, gloomy, rainy ones. I recommend you get it at a sale since the full price is bit high for such a short game. I actually think is my new favorite.

Danger In Retro Havana !
I thoroughly enjoyed Havana Nights! It was an uncomplicated mystery crime story that had a definite beginning, middle and end. The plot was unique, the ending had a surprise twist to it...and for once the ending was not silly or abrupt. I highly recommend this game. This one, IMO, is much better than the other two Cadenzas. It seemed shorter than the others, but I don't care. It's the quality and fun that is important!
The graphics were gorgeous and very colorful. The clothing, buildings, interior design , art, cars were very indicative of 1952 Havana. The characters were done extremely well and the voices were strong and clear. The Cuban accents did not sound hokey, may have been the real deal. I loved listening to the dialogue and when written it was easy to follow the storyline. I never skip dialogue in any game so this was a real pleasure. The story was similar to Music, Betrayal and Death in that a tune played by a musician bitter with revenge, put a spell on the victims which resulted in murder and destruction.
There was a satisfying amount of games, puzzles and HOGs. I loved them all, lots of fun. They were challenging but not frustrating. One puzzle actually was a pain in the ----, so I thankfully took advantage of the 10 second skip. I do always set the hint and skip to 10 or 15 seconds when a custom game mode is available. The HOGs were excellent and there was a good variety, some were quite unique. The inventory always had a lot of items but they were quickly used which I appreciated. The jump map was available very soon into the game and it was nice and quick. Havana was all laid out on it with the streets, piers and significant buildings...a very nice feature.
The music was pleasant and kept it on through the entire game, beautiful guitar pieces. The sound effects, right down to the least significant object or environmental sound, were very realistic. I really liked the short physical confrontations and the struggle for the gun. The boxing KO by a female boxer was an unexpected treat.
So, overall, Cadenza: Havana Nights was very entertaining and I think that it can be played by any skill level and even though it is a crime story, there are no bloody or inappropriate scenes if that is something that bothers you. IMO the game deserves 5 big, shiny stars!
God Bless....

Brilliant game - deserves more than 5 Stars!
I loved the setting of this game, it has real atmosphere enhanced by the era of the story, the colours, the voice actors and the wonderful music. I had not played any game like this before but I didn't want it to end - I think this is the best Big Fish game I've ever played. The story was excellent and the puzzles just right, nothing annoying. I would love any more games in this retro style! Highly recommend!

havana can be dangerous
custom level and a good hint system. you get a letter from your brother. he would like for you to come to havana and help him run a nightclub he bought. he wants you to play your trumpet and that would provide the music for the club. after you get there he is kidnapped and you discover a plot that involves a deceased man that seems to have come back to avenge his death. well, you know that can't be true but you need to get to the bottom of this and find your brother. you learn the story as you go through the game.you are falsely arrested at the beginning because you were in the process of recovering a red box that your brother told you to get from his office safe and you need three keys to get it open and that is what you are doing as well trying to figure out the story. sequel...probably. this one was pretty well along the line of the others.
