So far, so good
Love the ability to adjust recharge of hints. Also, prefer the double click for using inventory. Haven't gotten halfway through game yet, but as my review title says, so far so good, and hence my only 4 star review
Frustrating at times
Has beautiful scenes and lots of work put into it. The colors are great. The things we didn't like was load times between scenes, no right or left arrow to look thru the items you found (swiping takes several tries to get it to work), selecting objects or combining them took us several tries most of the time. After playing Cursery, the Crooked Man and the Crooked cat (with the black cat on the icon) and thoroughly enjoying it and ease of use, this was frustrating to play a game that wasnt easy to use.

I'd give it a five, but.....
When you get more than one page of inventory, there are no left or right button to navigate. Swiping left or right is hit or miss and very irritating.
Amazing Voyage
Great gameplay. Keeps you wanting to play more. HO games are fun, but challenging. Best game I've played in a while!
Not exactly the Love Boat
This was a very good game, but it had some major flaws.
The good: varied puzzles, good HOPs, interesting storyline, long-playing, great fundamentals (teleporting map, good hint button, nicely marked back button, compass on the scene to let you know active areas). Good sound and graphics...not great but very good.
The bad: the loading time between scenes was horrible (full star deduction), some of the game and cut scenes just felt old, and the entire game was always dark and dull...there were no bright scenes to alleviate the dullness of the game, which also led to the feeling that it was old and tired. ๐ซ๐ซ๐๐๐๐And some of the scenes were cut off, so if you missed a collectible, you couldn't get back to it.
So it's a three star game. Worth the sale price, but maybe not full retail.
Greetings to you all, hoping all are well -- thank you for all the reviews...they are very helpful, and I read them before making a purchase.

Clunky and slow
Playing this on an iPad pro and the controls are super clunky and the game is slow to recognize actions. I'm not enjoying the story either, but that's more subjective.
Fear for Sale: Endless Voyage by LynxMinx
Hi to all gamers! You all should check out Alawar! They have some terrific games, and I know KimTwilight will agree! I just played Alex Hunter: Lord of the Mind and it was really good. There were no gimmicks but it was a nice lengthy game with instantaneous loading between locations, a marked teleport map and labeled inventory. It had a long bonus adventure as well. For the price it was a good game! BigFish needs to know there are other distributors with very good games out there, and they should be bringing them to us! I'll get back to you after I play this game! Thanks, Dracyy, for looking out for me! You're amazing!
On to the review. I absolutely loved this game and I wish I could have given it a full 5 stars. The story was interesting, but I would have liked a journal to keep track of it because when I play late at night and take a sleeping pill I don't remember playing. They do regularly update objectives, you can customize your settings (wish there was a left-handed one), the hint wasn't a spoiler and of course there's a strategy guide. The graphics were terrific and colorful, the cut-scenes were exciting, and there were tons of locations to unlock. That leads me to the other reason I deducted a star. There is a LONG LAG TIME between locations, so please Elefun, start giving us the pleasure of INSTANTANEOUS LOAD! This game was quite lengthy and had a long bonus adventure. There were collectibles, either beyond objects or part of a different collection, but they showed you a gold star on the map so you knew when you had found all the collectibles. The map was a marked teleport map, our favorite type for lazy players such as myself. The gameplay was flawless and the game flowed beautifully! Inventory was labeled and there were the always fun plus items to assemble. The HO scenes were varied, or you could do a jigsaw. There was a nice variety of puzzles and mini-games, and I only skipped one! And happily for me, no rodents except for a couple of mice in the HO scenes. Thanx, Dracyy! Keep me updated on that situation in that new Maze game!
Anyway, I send โค๏ธ๐๐ to KimTwilight, Dracyy and the rest of the fabulous Dream Team Elite! Happy gaming everybody! I am going to play another Alwar game first and then I will play that new game!

Wanna go a cruise??
This is one a better games I've played. Longer and the story line is fantastic. Even the puzzles are a bit challenging. Loved it. Hope to see more and will definitely give 5 stars. We'll deserved....
Fear for sale
Great game moved along smoothly. Love the variety of HOS I would have to say I throughly enjoyed this game
Too much waiting around
Too slow waiting to load between locations. Scrolling through inventory was not well done. Too bad these things ruin the experience.
It has a potential but...
The game is very boring ! Also, slightly outdated and glitchy. It takes ages to load the scenes, you have to scroll through numerous items to find the ones to combine, there is no action so far...well, I put 3 stars only for the bright colors. And honestly I started to doubt some of the reviewers ๐who put 5 stars to this game of such a bad quality in comparison to any game by elephants or ers:))) The verdict - don't buy. Find another game to spend your time and money.

Midnight
This is one of the better games; all the way through the bonus round. The only downside in my opinion is that each scene takes a long time to load. The hint button works well and the puzzles are different enough to keep it interesting, as is the story line. Worth buying.
Endless Voyage
So far this game has been great. Some of the puzzles and HO scenes are not your typical ones, which we have enjoyed. The map is a plus. The only complaint that comes to mind is the fact that it takes FOREVER to load when changing from one scene to the next. This tends to be frustrating because when we play in the morning before husband has to leave for work, it takes away from the time we actually get to enjoy the game.

Liked it A lot
The game was very entertaining. It was very colorful with interesting scenes. The HOS were clear and the puzzles just right. Can't give it 5 stars though- it can't compete with Elephant Games. Anyway, it was fun to play.
Meh
Too long of a pause time between scenes!! Other than that, ok.
Not too shabby!
I have recently started playing the iPad games for big fish. I have been a member of big fish for 10 years, and usually play on my computer. It is really convenient to play on my iPad and I am enjoying it very much. This game was really fun and lots to do. Thanks big fish!
Endless Voyage
It's a good game, lots of variety and challenges. I'm grateful for the lack of witches, demons and evil. Thank you.
Omg
If they allowed minus stars this one would take the cake for me. Idiotic storyline, not captivating at all, and the the hop....irritating and frustrating to no end . On my iPad the items could not be selected and it took multiple taps to select the required item. Additionally, to combine items items within the hop was an exercise in patience at best. Because i paid for this darn game i wanted to finish but the string broke at 95 percent and i decided to call it quits. Hated his game!

Enjoyable BUT
I find the game enjoyable but so many glitches! At times, game play is interrupted when the Strategy Guide is automatically opened without choosing to open it. Several times, upon returning to the game, the map stays open on screen and can't be closed. I've deleted and reinstalled once but, of course, I had to start over. At times, even though I choose an object, I can't use it unless I use a hint. Kind of frustrating.

Outstanding!
Great adventure with lots of hidden object scenes/puzzles some very challenging. Nice teleporting map and a great storyline. Character voices a huge plus. Only one complaint which is the long load time between scenes about half way into the game. However, overall very enjoyable and a good long game. Thank You, Big Fish, Keep these games coming! KdBoots
