This is a must purchase for me. I will buy right away. I have played "Nefertti" so many times I think I should have worn it out and expected the pages to fade with use. I hope this one is as enjoyable as the first was. The first one wasn't at all difficult, when I replayed it the feeling was similar to an old pair of slippers, very comfortable. Off to buy now here goes my reserve of credits. Oh well, I can't take it with me may as well enjoy it.

Hi Jenny, have you managed to download yet? I've just got it in less than 10 mins - I don't know whether being near a telephone exchange helps??? smile

I played the trial, but during it, my cursor disappeared. I had to wait a few minutes before it re-appeared. Don't know if this is a glitch or not. I wasn't clicking fast. Anyone else have this problem?

This is a MUST BUY for me. I love everything about the game.
BFG_Guy was right when he hinted at a great game coming in about 7 days. Thank you Big Fish Games for the great weekend you've given me for only $7.

Some of you may not like the fact that there are a lot of "find the differences" but... there is so much else here that I don't mind. The only reason I dislike "find the differences" is simply because I am so bad at them... but these haven't been so difficult and you do have hints. What I like best is the fact that you work between several scenes at once... something you find in one screen but they go into another. I love that.

This is going to be one of those games that depresses me when I get to the end. I think this one is a winning IHOG.

So very sorry for those of you who are having problems getting the game to run. Try downloading and not running anything else while it downloads. Don't give up on it... contact the techs and keep trying. The game is worth it.

EDIT: Cherie, now I have to buy 2 games today. (You really led me astray!) I discovered I somehow missed Neferitti-- I never bought that game. So now I'll have double the fun this weekend.

You may want to read This thread about the first one before you buy it. It's very very short.

NYLady, you could not get the original to run, that is why you didn't play. wink

Thanks for the heads up Ana. Two hours doesn't sound worth it.

I read the Gamezebo review, too, Ana, before I decided to buy it. "The game is too short" never deters me when making a purchase, as I find that it always takes me much longer to play and finish one of these games than what others are reporting. Inexperience has its advantages! wink

I've still got 17 mins to go on the demo, I love the environments & the interactive elements, many players are going to love it & I can appreciate it's a good one. For me there are far too many spot the differences - I don't mind one or two, & also for me there is far too much going on & to think about!. I play casual games when I don't have the time and/or concentration to commit to a full adventure so while I don't like anything too easy I do prefer something more straight forward than this game. I probably won't buy the full game, the number of spot the differences definitely puts me off, but I will get round to finishing the demo! smile

I am buying this one now. I really like Spot the difference puzzles. I was trying to save my credit for Women's Club and I missed the SH Mystery of the Persian Carpet so may get that one too lol

I really don't think it's that short either. If you take your time and follow the story, it can pass quite a bit of time away.
I've been playing the last couple of hours for a second interval and I'm still not finished. I think it's well worth the price.

This game is so different and love the theme to begin with and it really makes you think in many of the locations you go too. I bought this one.
