Thanks, Ana. The developer is Mumbo Jumbo, who brought us the Midnight Mysteries series of games (Haunted Houdini Deluxe and The Edgar Allan Poe Conspiracy, to name a couple). I'm downloading the demo now. wave

Thank you, Ana - I loved the Midnight Mystery series.

I liked all the games Marian mentioned. This one looks good. Nice graphics and voice acting. A bit more narration than I care for. Still thinking about it. Would like to know how long the game is before deciding. Not easy to determine from SG since the SG is not divided into chapters.

Someone on the Big Fish forums said it took 5 hours to play through the game (I'm assuming that included the bonus chapter as well, but I'm not positive). wave

I have just started the game. So far so good. I think that it's going to be a winner!

What a great game been playing about 2 hrs and haven't used any hints got 20 now. Used the guide a little. Only saw two HOS so far. Are you playing Marian? More of a adventure than a HO game. Skip took quite a while to recharge.

That sounds good, Richard; I'm glad you are enjoying the game. I haven't played it yet, but I'm sure I will eventually. smile wave

I tried the demo and couldn't get past the girl constantly gestering in the lower right corner. It annoyed me to no end. Too bad, because the actual gameplay was promising.

I saw other people on the Big Fish forums who found this distracting too, colpet; you are not alone. wave

I've read so much about this bobble-head that I'm going to try the game just to see it. Am I a sick puppy or what?

No comment. whistle

Decided to pick up with a credit I had on hand. I do agree with those who find the Angelica character in the corner distracting - if not a bit condescending. snicker grin

During the demo, I wasn't bothered by the bobblehead at all; in fact, I didn't even notice that she bobbled. lol It's interesting to see what folks do/do not notice or like/dislike about a particular game. wave

Well, I did try out this game to see the bobble head. Actually, to me she wasn't nearly as annoying as that infernal owl hooting in many games. Like you, Marian, I hardly noticed her. It looks to be a very interesting game and I'm seriously considering buying it. I'm glad I gave it a try before outright saying no.

I enjoyed this game, although I almost deleted it after an hour or so, not because of the bobble head, as others stated you don’t notice it after awhile, I almost gave up because of one the puzzles at the beginning where you had to stack some “Stuff” to get to a window and it was really hard for me to do this, but I just waited and hit Skip and continued and I am glad I did.
This is not one of the best games I’ve played so far but the graphics were great, puzzles after the one I mentioned were good and the story fairly good and interesting, had a fair share of HOs as you progressed in the game but were fairly easy to spot and a refresh hint system that was quick enough to satisfy those who hate too many HOs like me, and yes, NO click penalty.
There were reviewers in the BF forum that said her voice was irritating, I did not find this at all...
And I agree with Cappy re: “Actually, to me she wasn't nearly as annoying as that infernal owl hooting in many games” and I would like to add as “Annoying = The *** Crow squawking during many games I have played”

And to puzzler46, I believe your right but no big deal for me if I enjoy a game...

Gamezebo gave this game 5 stars; I don't recall the last time a CE was given 5 stars. It is of course just one person's opinion, but if you are interested you can read the review here. wave

Aw Marian, did you have to? Man, now there's no way I can resist! That review was awesome; reminded me of the adventure games I started out playing (ie. Art of murder). Unfortunately, I won't have a chance to play it until I get through this semester of school. But, thanks for the heads up; I might have missed it if I'd waited 'till then to purchase!
