I saved this one to play several times. The graphic are really fun. Love the 3D puzzles. I wish there were a sequel. Or more games like this. ### 3/5 — Update please *2017-11-05, version 1.4* Great game but I am stuck after upgrading iPad to ios11. When will you make it compatible? ### 5/5 — Best mobile game ever *2017-10-05, version 1.4* Really takes me back to the old Lucas Arts and Sierra games! Extremely high quality and enjoyable gameplay! Addictive! ### 5/5 — Loved it *2017-09-26, version 1.4* Great game. Worth the money ### 5/5 — Very good *2017-09-18, version 1.4* Fun game to play, a bit too much cut scene in some parts though, but otherwise great! ### 5/5 — Melissa K *2017-09-02, version 1.4* Wonderful graphics and a fun way to take a virtual vacation to learn about a country's past.b ### 4/5 — Engaging! *2017-08-23* I am a big fan of these types of games. This one won me over! The graphics and design was fabulous. Most of the puzzles were great, interesting and challenging. A few were too easy and a few too hard. Puzzle for the lizard to eat the wiggle worms, and leaving footprints behind, was really ingenious and one of my favorites. Only con is often a con in this genre. Can point and click forever before finding a hidden inventory item. But that is why the great "help" button is built in. Looking forward to more like this. ### 2/5 — Boring *2017-05-09, version 1.4* It's alright ### 5/5 — Love it *2017-04-18, version 1.4* Such a delightful departure from Big Fish one-note overpriced games. Beautiful graphics and fun puzzles. Create more! ### 5/5 — Very good game *2017-04-10, version 1.4* This is a very interesting and pretty game. Lasts a rather long time and I enjoyed playing it.
