Thanks Ana, This is a fun game. Not difficult. Very interactive. Hos are a variety and interactive. Nice hint system. Used a punch credit. Now I just need more hours in the day.

I am very torn about buying this game. Anyone know if this is a long game?

I don't know about this one, but I do see someone saying that it took them about 5 hours to play the CE including the bonus chapter. Maybe it's about a 4-hour game?

I usually find that these games take me much longer to play than a lot of the posted estimated times; I like to take my time and not rush. wave

Hi, Ana!

I don't know why I passed on the CE, but I just finished playing the demo and will probably use one of my punch card coupons to buy it. My only complaint is that the "Hint" button doesn't direct you to where things need to be done next (I'm spoiled by some of the other recent releases), but that's only minor.
