### 1/5 — Unable to get my games I previously bought

*2024-06-07, version 1.0.0*

Unacceptable

### 5/5 — Very good!

*2024-05-12, version 1.0.0*

I found this game good in length and challenges. Normally these games go to fast. This one was worth the money.

### 4/5 — Winter Lily

*2024-02-28, version 1.0.0*

This game still plays well.  I know we have all seen these puzzles before, but so what?  They are engaging, and the Bonus Game was pretty good.
I took off a star because one of the games (it involves switching things around to their proper position) didn’t seem to have a correct answer.  The only other issue is that the Strategy Guide is no longer supported.
But all in all, it’s a heck of a lot better than “FTP” or episodic games!

### 3/5 — Bad instructions

*2023-08-21, version 1.0.0*

I had to use the hint quite a few times. When you write instructions, they are being written by someone who already knows the answer. They are not at all understandable for someone who does not know. Very confusing and not helpful!

### 5/5 — Plaisir assuré

*2023-03-20, version 1.0.0*

Très belle histoire et le jeu est vraiment très bien conçu ……merci pour ces moments de plaisir à jouer à ce jeu .

### 5/5 — Winter

*2023-01-08, version 1.0.0*

Excellent game from start to end. Highly recommend.

### 1/5 — Unskippable nonHO Puzzle

*2022-04-26, version 1.0.0*

I originally gave this game 3 stars due to non HO puzzles outnumbering HO puzzles 3 to 1 easily but now I’ve changed it to 1 due to encountering a nonHO puzzle that couldn’t be skipped. I don’t buy these games for misc puzzles, I buy them for hidden object puzzles so forcing me to complete a misc puzzle whether I want to or not is just gross.

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2022-02-06, version 1.0.0*

Really enjoying this game, like the way you can swap characters to complete your tasks. Lots of difficult challenges which I enjoy. Very good graphics. Definitely recommend this game.

### 5/5 — Best Hidden Objects Game Ever

*2021-07-27, version 1.0.0*

Domini beats Big Fish and eats them for lunch. I would pay $6.99 all day long for this much fun.

Excellent game just challenging enough to keep you intrigued and interested.

This game is like a great book read, it’s hard to put down and you can’t wait to pick it up again and keep on playin’.

### 5/5 — Big fish

*2020-09-30, version 1.0.0*

I love it
