Bought this one for Halloween fun, but it is not panning out as I had hoped. After the first couple of unexpected ghostly appearances, too routine to be spooky. I have the same complaint as many others: items teensy-tinsy and all too often stuck in a blackened corner. Etchings on the gravestones pretty nearly invisible. I resorted to randomly clicking all over the tombstones to locate the final whatever as there are no hints for this section and you can't advance until all are found. Do not care for "find the differences" games, but there are several hard ones here too. Am about half way through (judging from the unexplored buildings left) but don't know if I'm up to completing what has been a fairly routine and occasionally frustrating pixel hunt. I give it a C.
++UPDATE++ After playing more of this game, I am downgrading it to one star, not recommended. Insanely dark and impossible to find flies are the only way to obtain add'l hints, which are only 2 to begin with. Lousy hunt scenes - again, boring stuff to find, devilishly hidden. Etchings on tombstones invisible. This game is not fun. I almost never fail to persevere no matter how lousy the game, but I am uninstalling this one before even finishing. That says it all for me.
