### 4/5 — Great game except for poor reactive responses

*2023-07-29, version 1.0.0*

I really enjoyed this game for its imagination and depth but I’ve knocked a point off because it’s not responsive at many places and I had a struggle to get it to pick up a lighted candle without it warning about a missing sword. Luckily I found a fudge solution by reading the reviews here.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2023-05-05, version 1.0.0*

This is a really good game,as already been noted there are a few glitch's but the game is good enough not to worry about them

### 5/5 — The Gifted One

*2023-03-20, version 1.0.0*

I don’t ever write reviews for games, but I have to do so for this HOG.
I have played hundreds of games over the years but this is by far the best game I have played. The story line is well thought out, the puzzles and Hidden objects were far superior from any other game!! Please give us more games like this !! This is the first game that I didn’t want to end! Usually, I get bored halfway through many games but not this one!  The programmers of this game are a very talented group !  I hope to see more games from all of you! 
P.S the graphics are Awesome!!

### 5/5 — Big fish

*2023-03-16, version 1.0.0*

I love it

### 5/5 — Great game

*2023-02-24, version 1.0.0*

I really like this game. I play hidden object adventure games all the time and this is one of my personal favorites that I play over and over great bonus game as well… definitely recommend this game!

### 5/5 — Fun game, great bonus game

*2022-12-11, version 1.0.0*

CANDLE - Regarding the candle issue - I had the same issue but went to the guide and solved the other issues I still could solve and then somehow it lets you pick up the candle by touching it at the very top. Just remember to do everything you can, and you should be able to get the candle. Great story and ending. Interesting HOPs and mini games. The music is a bit slow and melodious but tolerable. Note to go back, touch to the left of the arrow. That can be frustrating if you don’t catch on to that. In the middle I had no clue where to put things so I kept hitting the hint button, which can be frustrating. I also had to consult the guide many times when the hint said something that was wrong. The guide definitely helps! So for the story and ending - five stars. Pretty long too! Adding here that the bonus game is really quite phenomenal, okay that could be a pun, but it is great! HOPs are interesting, most of the things to find are understandable, the map isn’t that big that you get lost and the characters are cool and cute. Good funny dialogue (where’s my dolphin?) The ending, once again, is great!
The only odd thing is, when I was doing this review, I noticed a duplicate file/version of this game for $2.99, when this version is $6.99. Looks like they both have the bonus content. Not sure what the difference could be except the cost.

### 4/5 — Paranormal Pursuit: Gifted One by LynxMinx

*2022-12-05, version 1.0.0*

June 8th-This is not my review yet, so don't judge the stars. Message to Bunkie: I have addressed the no purchase found problem with both Apple and BigFish. I could not play Maestro 4 or some of my older games due to this issue! Obviously the Dream Team has some clout, because I threatened them pretty strongly and guess what, Maestro and other games are now unlocking again! Unfortunately I unlocked Maestro and there were lots of RATS! REVIEWERS: Start checking your games again! I have been corresponding with both BF and Apple and the issue seems to be rectified, so you can just stop complaining and start unlocking again! Also, other reviewers need to stop offending our interpersonal relationships and kindness towards each other, especially when they don't have the clout that BigFish's best review team (the Dream Team) does! Oh Bunkie, Montreal is one of my favorite cities! Best rum buns at the Duc de la Reine Bakery! Also loved the Four Seasons Hotel on Sherbrooke! I am glad you are having a great time, and thank you for your kind birthday wishes! Will get back to all of you after I try out this game! Ok, so I just finished the game. First of all, stop complaining about the subject matter. It was sci-if, and it had a happy ending. If you don't like it, don't play! The graphics were 3D, so if there were RATS, I would literally have died! The realistic graphics and cut-scenes were frightening. But Alawar didn't disappoint! They gave you instantaneous loading between locations, a helpful journal and task list, a teleport map with labeled tasks, and inventory that was labeled. The HO scenes were the type where you had to find an object and use it to unlock another one, which is my favorite type. The game wasn't HO heavy either. You also had plus objects, and you got to use the child's super powers as well! The puzzles and games were interesting and fun, lots of codes and electronic stuff. It was a good solid game. The reason I didn't rate it 5 stars was because it had some annoying touch sensitivity issues! Other than that, it was very good. Dream Team, thank you and the other reviewers for acknowledging that Lynxie worked hard to fix the unlocking process. I am still working with BigFish and I won't give up until the problem no longer exists! Please guys, stay on RAT PATROL for me! Maestro had RATS! But I played it begrudgingly. I was so happy to hear from Bunkie, Moonbeam and Blueflier. To the rest of you, Snooper, Nambr, Dracyy, Hossy, I send warmest regards and 💋❤️💋❤️! Remember, your fearless (except for RATS) leader is always there for you. I am looking forward to that new Labyrinth game and of course the new Hidden Expedition!

### 1/5 — Très déçue,

*2022-07-01, version 1.0.0*

Acheté hier a 6,99 et aujourd’hui plantage dans la cabane de l’arbre avec la bougie, dommage, encore une arnaque

### 1/5 — Game froze

*2022-06-26, version 1.0.0*

I am trying to get refund or have this problem fixed and it won’t recognize my purchase. Can someone please help?

### 4/5 — Glitches & wont give you items

*2022-05-04, version 1.0.0*

I have tried a few times to play this games. Sadly have had to give up on it as it won’t give you items required to proceed in the game.
