I finished a couple days ago and it didn't feel like an MCF to me at all. It was a quality game, but the puzzles were way too easy. I was looking forward to the usual puzzles that really make me think.

Most of them are seriously dumbed down and over in a second. I kept thinking there was another layer to them when one step was completed only to discover that rotating something twice was the end. :(

Ohhh!! BrownEyedTiger re: Most of them are seriously dumbed downBetween you and Draclvr re: she feels like a Dumbo, maybe I don't belong here since I am one in the BUMBEST section, could you suggest a Forum where there are people of my Kind who are in the Bumbest category since I felt the puzzles where not so bad.

Reenie, the puzzles are the same no matter your setting. Starcom, I am sure you are not a dumbo by any means! There were a few puzzles that took some thought, but a lot of them seem to have been cut short with things to do in them. I expected more from an MCF, they usually stump me for awhile, which I enjoy.

No, the puzzles are identical regardless. Look at the walkthroughs and you will see only one solution. If they were different they would have to include multiple versions. As someone who writes the walkthroughs for BigFish, I can assure that is fact.
Also, it lists what the various differences are when you choose the difficulties. Nothing speaks of the puzzles being different.
For instance the Insane hardest level states Hints and Skips recharge slowly, selection penalty in HOPS, No glints or sparkles, Map shows no areas of interest, No helpful messages, Plus-item indicators are not visible. THat is all it does.

For the exact things I stated. You don't see little glints where an item may be hiding, you can't look at the map and see where there is something highlighted to do etc. That's all you get. For those that don't want to see little glimmers around, it helps a lot to be able to turn it off. The game itself is not harder though in terms of what to do. They are all the same.

In some cases, that is correct Marian. Most have a "select your own" options so you can just leave that on though. In this case, the skip button takes longer to generate but is not eliminated.
