Exceptionel good game. The best in any genre for a long time.
Don't understand the harsh review. For the genre this extremely good, and not boring at all. Firstly the graphics is some of the best I have seen in a long time, and even so, this loads MUCH quicker than most other casual games. Secondly, the minigames are very good and imaginative and diverse. The voice acting is also spot on, Nothing bad or boring about this, unless you don't like steampunk. But this is a really-really good game, and I'll buy this at some point without a doubt. For people who likes varity in gameplay, and a different kind of game, I wholeheartedly recommend this.

My cup of coffee!
Steam punk, morphing collectables, bad guys, good guys, beautiful scenery, tinkering with robots, and on and on! So much packed into, what is for me, a perfect game. And a sale to boot. Thank you for this delightful game.
Game mechanics are a little slow, but so am I! LOL. A buy for me after playing only a little of the game.

A Really Good Steam Punk Story
Once again Artifex Mundi (Cordelia Games) offers a fine storyline with solid twists and strong game play. Bravo, Artifex Mundi! For me, they are among the best at integrating HOPs with story so there is a real balance.
This review is based upon completed play of the game (without the bonus chapter). As always, try the demo, as the diversity of reviews suggests. There is no one game for everyone but for everyone there is a game. Enjoy!

SO ENJOYABLY DIFFERENT!
i thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of this game ... all the mini games were unusual ... the hos were pretty good but nothing outstanding ... i loved the storyline though ... very different ... and the quality of the imagery was fabulous ... the voiceovers were a bit muffled at times however, but it did not distract immensely ... glad i was able to see a new game on sunday ... been missing that 2nd game per week ... new developer for me so keep them coming! ...

SKYLAND HEART OF THE MOUNTAIN IS A TERRIFIC STEAM PUNK GAME
Skyland Heart of the Mountain is a surprisingly good game. I say surprisingly because I am not generally a fan of steam punk but I found myself absorbed in the gameplay and had a hard time stopping to write this review. Of course since I was enjoying the game I had to purchase it so that I could continue the story and adventure.
The graphics are great and create the futuristic atmosphere for the game. The characters are well depicted and the game has excellent voice overs. I am not overly fond of gadgets and I could have easily done without Uncle Leo’s futuristic glove. I personally found the mini-game that was attached to using the glove a bit annoying.
The HOPS contain variety with some being list type while others rely on silhouettes or finding various shapes. I found none of the HOPS to be difficult and they were enjoyable. The Puzzles were not too difficult except that I disliked the one attached to the glove. All in all both the HOPS and Puzzles were entertaining and added to the game. Although I found most of the HOPS and Puzzles to be rather middle of the road as far as challenge, I did find that I was not always sure what my next steps in the game should be and that kept the gameplay interesting.
I would like to point out, mainly because some people have questioned the opinion of another reviewer, that games are very subjective. What I might find to be not my cup of tea does not mean that a game might not be great for others. We are asked our opinion of any game and mine might often be different than yours. I happen to love Skyland Heart of the Mountain and find it to be an excellent game but that doesn’t mean that everyone will share my opinion. I purchased the game right away because I do like it but, as always, please try the demo to see if you will enjoy Skyland as well. Happy gaming!

A casual game for everyone
I found this game enjoyable and the scenery is beautiful however there was a few points i wasn't keen on like the collectables, i thought they were a bit hard to spot because they morph rather quick and if you miss any you can't go back and collect them and i found the game a bit predictable as i guessed the twist almost immediately, the game seemed to be over really quick too. the bonus game isn't really necessary (as the main game finishes nicely with no cliffhanger) but it's a good follow on, i only buy collectors editions for the bonus games and not the extras so if you're like me then i would wait for the standard edition to come out. But this is a nice little casual game suitable for beginner/intermediate level.

Don't understand the two star review
As a Star Trek fan I like to try sci-fi themed games, and rarely find one to buy. This might be one, though perhaps I'll wait for the standard edition. Excellent art work and a plot that caught my interest. Original and quite easy minigames, interactive HOPs, although only one so far.
In the 15 minutes I've played I didn't find any reference in the tutorial to the collectable bleating goats(?) mentioned in the two star review, but I am finding collectable airships.

IS BAL de SOL THE MAD MAN HERE? WAIT AND SEE!
REVIEW OF COMPLETED GAME AND BONUS
I liked this steam punk game and I felt like a bloke tinkering around in the garage. The main game is about rescuing the people of Skyland after being turned into crystals and the bonus is about stopping the drones for good, There is:
* Voiceovers (with dialogue);
* Casual, Advanced, Expert and Custom modes;
* Interactive map;
* Find 29 collectibles (air ships) in the main game only;
* 16 Achievements;
* 22 replayable mini-games and 13 replayable HOPs.
The graphics are very good and clear to see everywhere. There are plenty of locations to visit and, if you like fixing machinery, then you are in for a treat.
Sound is good and the music is orchestral and nice to listen to.
The hidden object games are mostly straightforward and some silhouette. These are quite cluttered and a few items took me a while to find. However, I enjoyed them all and liked that they had a bit of challenge.
The mini-games are all very easy to do and I was able to get back to the game fairly quickly. However, these are great for beginners to gain experience and I enjoyed doing them again.
There are 29 morphing collectibles (air ships) to find throughout the main game. Most of these are easy to spot, however a few were well hidden. They morph in and out about every 5 seconds or so. I did these first so I didn't forget about them because there is no icon to see whether you have grabbed it or not and you don't have the function to find any ones you missed after the game. So, my advice is to find the collectible first in each scene to get the achievement.
There are 22 replayable mini-games and 13 HOPs to play if you want to redo them.
All up the game took me about 5 hours or so playing during the week. I enjoyed the game and wanted to play longer.
Overall, I think this game will appeal to most fishies. There is plenty to do and I was never bored.
Happy playing fishies.

STEAMPUNK WITH A ENGAGING STORYLINE
Approximately 4 Hour Completion Time:
Toxic soils and depleted energy sources forced people to rise to the occasion. Cities were developed upon the mountainous sleeping Stone Giants whose energy source was in abundance, and the citizen's lived in peace for centuries. After receiving a distress call from a neighboring city, the Nightengale Zepplin arrives to see the horrors of the aftermath of an attack by an unknown assailant. All of the citizens have been crystallized, slowly draining them of precious energy. Now it is up to the Nightengale's crew, a family trio, Uncle Leo and his nieces, bound together after a family tragedy, to find out who is behind the vicious attacks, and just why they need human energy!
There is a Gadget, a Gauntlet that can control or disable Drones, it does require a repetitive Mini-Game, however, it is only used 4 Times throughout the 6 Main Chapters and once in the Bonus Chapter, so it's not that bad.
Each of the scenes in the Main Game have a Morphing Zepplin Airship (none within the Bonus Chapter) They morph at a good pace but were a little too large, making them fairly easy to spot, they also seem to be hidden a little more as you progress. I wish they had an option to show the availability of the morph on the Icon because some of the scenes don't have one. I was also disappointed that they didn't allow you to return to the scenes to collect missing morphs. I missed collecting one morph during the demo/buy switchover scenario because I didn't click on the morph before the cutscene of the final demo scene, and when I purchased the game it took me to Chapter 3!
POSSIBLE SPOILER FEATURE (about the Goats): There are 5 Goats you will come across throughout the main game. When you click on them they won't disappear because they aren't really a collectible, they are an Achievement. The Goat's do bleat when you click on them, as another reviewer stated, but nothing happens until you click on the fifth and final goat and receive the G.O.A.T Award.
The Hidden Object Scenes have mostly Listed Item Finds, some of which are located within interesting scenes. A few of the locations were Repeated Scenes, but there is also Interactive List Finds, Silhouetted Shape Finds and Interactive-Progressive Silhouetted Shape Finds, There are 11 Main HOP's and 3 Silhouetted Shape Zoom Zone HOP's in the main game and 4 HOP's within the Bonus Chapter.
The Mini-Games (20 non-gauntlet games in the main chapters, 3 in the CE BC)) could be better and I wasn't crazy about the repetitiveness of several puzzle types back to back. The Gauntlet Gadget also has repetitive puzzles (10 gauntlet games in the main chapters, 3 in the BC) but as I said earlier, the Gauntlet is only used 4 times in the main game and once in the Collector's Edition Bonus Chapter. Below are brief descriptions of some of the more interesting mini-games offered within the complete adventure:
1-Select symbols from the right that match the symbols the arrow points to in sequence (gauntlet puzzle)
2- Steer the parachute using directional arrows to avoid obstacles.
3-Complete the images by swapping square tiles for 7 different images progressing in size.
4-Rotate valves until all arrows are within the green zones, 1 may affect other valves.
5-Rotate pipe sections to create a continuous flow.
6-Drag runes from the center to the edges so they don't overlap, they will drift to the center. (gauntlet puzzle)
7-Rotate fuses until all arms of the fuses are connected to identical colors.
8-Select the circles that don't share a common symbol with the original. (gauntlet puzzle)
The Collector's Edition Bonus Chapter takes place directly after the main adventure timeframe. Once again, you and your sister Adriane have to continue cleanup in aisle 5 because Drones are still on the loose and stealing everyone's valuables. You will learn more in-depth insight of the Nightengales' crew background stories as well. There are 4 remaining Hidden Object Scenes, 3 Mini-Games and the Gauntlet is used once during the BC. There are no remaining Morphing Zepplin Airships or collectibles during the BC either.
This Collector's Edition version has 6 Steampunk Wallpapers (without characters, yea!) 12 Concept Art Pictures, 5 Music Soundtracks, 7 Cutscene Videos, 13 Re-playable Hidden Object Scenes, 22 Re-playable Mini-Games, 16 Achievements to Earn, 29 Morphing Zepplin Airships, 6 Main Chapters (Heart of the Mountain) +Bonus Chapter (Apprentice At Heart) and a Built-in Strategy Guide. Enjoy your Steampunk Adventure!
