I found a written walkthrough here - I don't have any experience with this site, but it seems okay. Any old port in a storm, as my grandmother was fond of saying. Good to know that you have not had any technical problems with the game so far.

Glad you made it through, Reenie! Good to know that you enjoyed it so much. One of the developers responsible for this game is Cateia Games; we have had discussions about them in the past. They did one CE for Big Fish and several standard-version HOPAs. This page lists some of them here.I found out recently that Cateia Games has been bought by Playrix. Playrix also acquired Eipix, Boolat, and Daily Magic, among other HOPA developers, which meant bye-bye to HOPAs for all of them being as Playrix has gone to mobile only, unfortunately.

Thank you for that link, Marian. I see at least half a dozen games on that list that appeal to me as well-drawn Adventure Light. I don't like the candy shop palette nor the combat/timed action play of the others. But these new games will give me something to look for, and the info is greatly appreciated! You are welcome, Reenie! As you could see, not all of the games on that page were HOPAs/adventure lites. Cateia also did another game called Hotel, also on Big Fish, which is an adventure game. It's an older game, but I liked it. There may be others - I would have to look into it more. Good luck, Tally Ho - and yes, I know how you feel about mazes. I actually like those untangle-the-strings puzzles as I rarely have to skip them.

On the Cateia list, if you follow the game titled Brightstone Mysteries: Hotel, it brings you the the game titled Hotel on Big Fish, so, I'm assuming that is the same game. I did not even notice that, ob. You are right. They seemingly just changed the name. You can find it on Big Fish here. Thanks for pointing that out. The Legend of Crystal Valley is another adventure lite that they released. Unfortunately the game has been removed from the Big Fish website, but it is still available on Steam.
