I thought the games were similar in length and enjoyed them both. The storyline was good (I usually ignore, but I paid attention to this one). The mini games were easier than the first one though. I like more of a challenge but the games were well done.

Thanks, Ana; I'm enjoying the game very much so far. If it's about the same length as the first one, that's fine with me. wave smile

I thought it much shorter than the first one, although it may be that because everything was easier, it seemed that way. I spent maybe 4-5 hours playing time. Don't get me wrong, its worth buying, and good to play, but you just get disappointed when it all ends so quickly. thumbsup

I too thought the game was good but very short. It took me less than 4 hours- I skipped a couple of tedious puzzles like the frog & farmer.

I thought it had nice graphics and excellent storyline.

The puzzles were ok but finding bits of paper and coins was not much fun.

If it had normal hidden object game elements I think it would have made the game longer and more interesting then looking for the same things that were not really even hidden.

I think if you commbined this story, mix of puzzles and way of narrating it with the first WMC game style of game play (traditional hidden objects) it would have been excellent.

The game is OK, a lot easier than the first. I've played 30 minutes and I'm already finished 4 and a half cases so I will likely be almost finished by the time the 1 hour demo is up. I think I'll pass on this one but only because of the short length, not because of the gameplay.

I just finished the game; I'd say I got roughly four to five hours of play out of it. I thought the game had a nice variety of mini-games but will agree that they were for the most part very easy, as I usually get stuck somewhere in a mini-game and in this game I did not. But all in all, it was worth the $6.99 that I paid for it, and in a few months it will probably be good for a replay. smile

I finished the game and liked it. I agree it's rather short and the puzzles are easy and I missed the hidden objects part. But I still enjoyed it.

I am at Chapter 5. It does seem shorter to me but I think that is because the puzzles are easier. The only gripe would be that they should have allowed you to click a next page option once you finished reading. The puzzles so far I think do fit into the story. It's an interesting story and since just 6.99, not a bad buy. Though, for those buying it retail at $19.99, may be disappointed unless new to the HOGs.

I just finished the game and really enjoyed it. I do hope there will be another one. It was well worth the money (Thanks to Big Fish). I had to use hints a few times but all in all it was a good game. I especially liked the last part
Click to reveal..

. I will replay it again soon and hope not to use any hints.

I have not played very far yet but that's because it seems easy and, gasp, boring! I'm so disappointed since I was really looking forward to this one, but no hidden objects? No ability to move quickly through the dialog scenes? So far, I think the first one was MUCH better. I liked the story on that one too.

But I'll keep playing and hopefully it will improve.
