Just played a few minutes, and am considering. Nice graphics. HO's are a bit difficult to find because of the dark backgrounds. And Hints take a while to recharge. But I'm in a patient mood lately, so not bothered by this particular difficulty given the apparent quality of the game.

Appreciate your input, Ana.

Thanks for the info, Ana. I rather liked the part of the demo that I played so this may be a buy for me. smile

Thanks Ana, Haven't decided to buy it yet. I agree with Richard with quite a lot of HO search so far. Need to play more of the demo before I decide.

I have to agree with Richard and Gail...too many Hidden Objects. I always buy the Collector's editions, but I'm not sure about this one. Have to see how bored I get lol

I'm a bit sorry I bought this game, but I was feeling depressed and wanted something stupid and/or trivial.

It's very very slow to load between scenes (good for practicing patience) and difficult to find your way around.

Game would be improved with a map. I keep telling myself I should make one. Finally got into the manor after turning on the electricity.

Slogging along now once in awhile, and reading a book while waiting.

Having a very hard time trying to find the handcuff I did look at the Strategy Guide but its not in the place the guide shows or the hint. Anyone know where it is?

Are you outside the house. I remeber finding a handcuff by accident I was going for the skate but the handcuff came up. If it's the same place, it's on the right by the skate about halfway down or a little more.

Lizzie, the handcuff is exactly where it is shown in the walkthrough picture. It is located on the left of the tobaggan, in between the upper and lower shelves.

Lizzie, I looked at your screenshot, and I don't see it either.I couldn't even find the skate Flo NS mentioned. Personaly, I would give up and use a hint. Hopefully it is not a glitch.

Lizzie, this is probably a longshot, but since it says handcuff and not handcuffs, could it be that silver thing on the handlebars of the tricycle, behind the fishhook? eek

I'm pretty sure this handcuff doesn't look like we'd expect a handcuff to look like.

Try the thing on top of the kettle.

My handcuffs were outside the house.

I finished the game late last night - it's a good one, although rather slow to load change of scenes, but that may be just my computer

The extra game play is very long and just as good or better than the main game.

Hi Janice,

Sorry, my mistake. It was in Hounds of the Baskervilles.
