    At first sight, this game is really pretty but as you play it gets extremely annoying, why do I have to go back to the same site over and over AND OVER again to look for a stinky safety pin?? come on! Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

    I expected a lot more from this game and was disappointed by the whole experience. Not one of my better choices or purchases. Way too short and too everything???? Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

    An interesting theme but a bland game with very small objects and some really the same (jugs, vases, pitchers!). A lack of colors and definition. Went through it without excitement but not with utter boredom. I will probably forget it in two weeks! Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

    The interesting historical story of this game is the only thing that makes it stand out from the crowd. Some lovely photography but some objects are really difficult to find, even with a hint on occasion! Pretty standard HO gameplay with few mini games. I finished three of the six destinations in the 1 hour demo so not a long game I would hazard, ergo not the best value for money. I would get another demo to play maybe, but not buy this one.

    I thouroughly enjoyed the demo! I will purchase this. Most of the objects could be located and, if not, the hint system is rather generous. The graphics are good, you get real historical facts, and the overall idea is fun. You do revisit locations, but anyone who has played any of the MCF games should not have a problem with that.

    It was a pleasant, well-spent time. Wasn't expecting much, but it was not that bad. Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

    Not a particularly enjoyable game. Objects too small, fuzzy, obscure, etc. Story is relatively good, but the game play is frustrating. I only played about 30 minutes of the free trial, then deleted the game. Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

    Pretty interesting facts. Could have had more of a variety of locations. Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

    The screenshots look very pretty, but the game.....lack of creativity, most of the objects look similar (hair-clip and and comb look identical), I don't know which age ground of customer this game is for, because it will hurts everyone's eye. Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

    POOR POOR POOR! I expected a lot from this game considering the Nat'l Geo. name and was badly disappointed. The story and videos were interesting but the scenes themselves were poor quality - colors too bland and items were almost indistinguishable. I couldn't figure out why my tools weren't available and when I tried to look at the help I find out there is no help! I quit this game after 20 minutes, I just couldn't stand it anymore. Don't buy this, even if you get it at a discount. Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

    I am disappointed in this game. Like others have said, the objects are too small are are hard to see and hard to find. I was hoping there would be things from that era to find. I liked the introduction. I was hoping Nat'l Geo would do a much better job on the game. Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

    Sounded very promising, but I quit after a frustrating 15 minutes. The objects are so obscure and blended into the scene colors they are difficult to find to say the least. And I agree that there are many naming problems as well as more than one object that can be what is listed. Definitely would have hoped for better from NGC.

    User Review by arcadiarose

    I concur with everything the GZ reviewer, and the user review before me said. The backdrops and cut scenes are brilliant looking, but rather than being "hidden" the majority of ojects are transparent, or are colored to blend in, or are tiny, or are in the dark (some I couldn't even see WITH the hint, and had to click about where I'd seen the sparkles). Locations and items repeat. The basic idea had potential; too bad it was lazily executed. Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

    I didn't like this game at all. The objects were too hard to find because they were not well defined or too obscure to see. Very boring to spend so much time searching for things you couldn't find. I wouldn't waste my money. There are so many other games that are so much better.

    This game may have an interesting story to tell, but I didn't hang around long enought to find out. I played for about 15 minutes and was really bored. The settings are drab, and everything seemed really repetitious with no prospect of getting more interesting. I clicked the trashcan icon pretty quick on this demo.

    I have finished the demo, and I found it quite difficult to see the objects. Due either to some of the scenes being dark, or the objects to small. I don't think I will be buying this game. Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate
