Fun game!!!

Game made sense, good plot, inventory worked well, wasnโ€™t to hard to place inventory. I enjoyed the mini games too. Great game!!!

One of the best out there!

Iโ€™ve played a lot of these and itโ€™s one of the best

Great game

Really enjoyable and fun to play. A lot better than most. Game flowed and objects were distinctive and made sense.

Visual Books

This is a fun, magical, prophetic adventure. In this game, you travel into a storybook to a kingdom at different points of time, which also makes the scenes change completely. There is no going back and forth between the same scenes throughout the game, and I felt a true progression. There are plenty of awesome otherworldly talking creatures who made me feel like I had truly been transported into a fairytale. There is a smooth storyline, and I liked the dialogue.
The scenes match closeup actions such as drawers you open and close in the closeup also being open and/or closed in the overall scene. I do not find this in a lot of HOP games, and it felt authentic, like I was really doing things that might affect the story. There is fun music, some challenging puzzles (some easy), a nice replacement game for HOPs if you want to switch, and variety in the HOPs. I also liked that there are many times a tool in inventory that can be reused. This avoids the whole "I could have used that again!" in the next scene after you use a tool.

A footsteps button and extra sparkles are not available if you want them, but this is an older game so it is to be expected. Really the only negative I found was there was a pause when opening up a sub-screen in a scene, so I had to click and wait a second to see if anything was there before trying another place. Otherwise it might flash really quickly or I might miss it the first time. Really fun, really captivating, lengthy game that I recommend!

Great Game

Love this game, the graphics and storyline. I couldn't put it down. The price was fair compared to Big Fish new games, $6.99 is a rip off and I will never spend that on a short game. That's why I wait and play a year to two behind the current year because they are just as good and so much cheaper!

Review

Awesome game

Great game!

at first i thought inventory objects were too small for iphone, but I downloaded it a second time and its a great game!! Very long gameplay and beautiful design, artwork and minigames.

Excellent

Very good game. Lots to do. Difficult in places but well worth buying

Fantastic!

TONS of puzzle work - this game is a gem packed to the max with fun. The bonus fame is worth it alone. I rarely am so impressed, but this game rocks. Thank you!

LOVED it

Whimsical story, characters, and creative games and puzzles. A little clunky on iphone, but if you are looking for a casual game with some truly delightful little touches and details, you will love this.
