I think Hallowed Legends: is more of a adventure game than a hog. Great game. Well worth the money.

Ana,I can't remember when I have played a better game. The puzzles aren't to hard except one slider had to use the skip. I just got the balloon in the air, now to take a ride in it. At the beginning there were a lot of HO but now there aren't that many. I don't regret getting it at all.

The game looks pretty good; however, it is huge, over 850,000 KB which is a real problem for me now that AT&T has decided my connection was too fast and has halved it. "We're sorry but you are still within the acceptable range." Grrr.

After finally getting the game downloaded, I have to say that I agree with Richard. Nice graphics, puzzles that don't make me crazy, and I have yet to need the strategy guide.
One of the puzzles is a variation on one that I can normally do in my sleep. It's funny how such a tiny change could make me back up and think what to do next.
Anyway, so far the game is keeping my interest.

So far, I'm thinking this may be the CE I'll be buying this month. Sure sounds like a winner all around. "Shadow Wolf" is already available in SE and that's fine with me. Once a game has gone SE, I'm not willing to spend the extra for the CE. Appreciate the comments.
ETA: Yikes! Broadband Internet download took 25 minutes.

I finished the game and I'm on the bonus part. Pretty long game, 8 hrs. on and off. There are so many scenes I really don't
remember where you could find the wrench.

Janice, Don't hold me to this because I could easily be wrong for the reason Richard just mentioned but I think it was back in that red car in front of the power station. Tell you what, there are some impressive cut scenes in this game, particularly the one of a bridge opening. That was beautifully done. Then there are some that looked as if they'd been filmed and were a little blurry but the animated one of the bridge was proof of what they can do. I'm enjoying this. I have no idea where it's going...it's a little off-the-wall...but it was well worth buying, IMO, so much so that I don't want to turn in, darn it! Gil.

Richard Let us know how long the bonus part is, and whether the bonus gameplay is worth the cost of the Collector's Edition.

Jenny,just finished the bonus and it took me little more than a hour.It was a good bonus. Real nice game. If you didn't use the hint it would take about a hour and a half. I think it's worth the extra money. Not many HO. You really have to do some thinking.
Richard

I didn't think much of the bonus game. I felt as if they'd expended most of their ingenuity on the game itself and the bonus ended abruptly. All in all, however, it was a really good game, one of the best casuals I've played.
I also enjoyed the fact that our heroine's love interest was 'mature'. <g>
