No map, on HOP some items are difficult to see and the area to click on them is small. So you have to touch an item multiple times. Difficulty in picking up items from inventory. A lot of going back and forth to multiple rooms. Now my inventory items are gone. Yes, frustrating! Such a shame, it has potential.
Since BF hasn’t come out with any new games and I’ve been playing these games for years (so I’ve played just about all of them) I came across this one and realized I never played this one. I’ve been replaying all the ones I’ve already played over the years so it was refreshing to play one I’ve never played and thoroughly enjoyed it. I especially liked the description hints in the hop’s instead of the usual silhouettes or names of the objects. Gonna look for more of this series games and hopefully I never played them.
I started playing this series this year. I was blown away at the intricacies of the puzzles and artwork and ingenuity. Apparently Eipix was either given a huge influx of cash or they hired new staff members because anything pre-2017, like this one, is boring, cookie-cutter, rehashed crap.
Mixed review. So bad on this one, great on anything that came out in 2017. Thanks for for upping your game, pardon the ridiculous pun, Eipix, this year.
The game was well done, but very very very short. It took me only about 2 hours. That was fine for $2.99, but I can't imagine paying full price. There was a comment about the lack of a teleporting feature, but there WAS teleporting. Perhaps it was added in a later version?
Rarely do I write reviews, but I found this game to be very satisfying in all aspects! Beautiful graphics, subtle background music with none of the harsh sounds if the wrong object is clicked, transporting map with indications of pending tasks, clever, witty and charming HOP's, innovative out of the ordinary puzzles, good plot easy to follow, ability to go back after completion of bonus game and collect souvenirs or collectibles that were missed...One of the best I've played!
Had some problems, but good game
I have played over 40 hog before and never once wrote a review hands down this game is amazing...
No map? No teleport? A new game without the bells and whistles? Hmmm? Not for me. You keep getting dialogue. You have to go back and forth. Seems somewhat linear, and if so, you might not need a map or teleport. But, the free trial was short, so I'm not sure.
The pinch screen kept closing when I used it in a HO scene. That was annoying.
Update: Decided to try it again in 2016. It's already crashed 3 times. THAT's annoying. They haven't updated anything, either. Still no map, etc. but, the game seems like it COULD be fun if it were fixed. Too bad!
The original game was released 2/10/16.
I don't know why BigFish keeps doing this..re-releasing games as if they're new. When they release them, they are listed as having a current release date and no reviews. Thats misleading and confusing.
I thought the game was enjoyable. It's made by Eipix. But please note... the reviews on original release have many complaints of bugs and glitches.
