GREAT GAME!!! I really think this is the best of all the Hidden Expeditions. I did notice some foggy areas in the first couple of levels but just assumed it was done on purpose. The rest of it seems very clear. Some of the puzzles really make you think. I am really enjoying this game. I haven't had to yell for help yet but I imagine I will. Love this game.

Out of all the Expedition Games this one has to be the best. Love the puzzles, and the way you have to use one object on another to make it work. Big Fish did a great job. It's sorta got a little Madam Fate, Azada, and Hidden Museum in it.

After just playing the hr. demo, I love it. Can hardly wait to buy it. Love how you have to use some things to find other things. LIndaB

I love this game but must confess I need a magnifying glass for some of the objects. I'm delighted there's tips - as Big Fish are selling this, I was surprised to find it here. Thanks Gamezebo - you're the best!

I used some of the silhouettes instead of the hints. I found this was helpful and I really like that feature. Some of the silhouettes are mini hints themselves. Thanks big fish for that feature.

I'm stuck at the Snake charmer, followed the tips and the snakes just stay there swaying at their lines, nothing happens and I don't see a basket with a glass eye

I agree with Scooter46 about the silhouettes. I love that this game gives you both the name and the silhouette. But I keep forgetting to take advantage of them. When I can remember to click on the name and look at the silhouette it is so much easier to find the items. I think the 5 beetles you need to find to get a hint are sometimes more difficult to find that all the hidden items. I wish they had made it so you didn't have to find all 5 beetles in one screen to get the extra hint. It would be nice if the beetles would accumulate from screen to screen and when you reach 5 you would get a hint. Aren’t I lazy?

Good idea Lizzie. I find myself, since it isn't timed, looking for the Beetles first then finding the objects. If it was timed your idea would work great.

Hi Bella. I think the metronome has something to do with it. When I clicked on it, the needle started moving which made their tails move in time with it. I'm not sure exactly what setting it has to be put on cause I got impatient and just started hitting the hint button until it said solve. Then I hit the solve button and changed to you looking inside a basket and the glass eye was there. I'm not sure what you are supposed to do with it since a few seconds later my 1 hr was up. Man that hour went fast. I'm thinking I'll probably use my credit to get this game. I liked it a lot.

As much as I enjoyed the game I am disappointed that the makers of this game made the last puzzle so difficult. There are so many combinations that it is almost impossible to get through the 4 phases of the last puzzle. This is going to be one game I will not be able to finish because of this last one. I feel like I have wasted a large amount of money into a game that the makers have deliberately made difficult. I hate wasting money on games that seem easy during the trial period but are so difficult I cannot finish it. What a waste.

Very challenging puzzles, but all in all a great game. Liked the beetles for hints, hint shapes, log was amusing, and many new and different things for HO game. There were plenty of hints, even if you did not find all the beetles. Thank goodness for a wonderful walk-through, could not have done it without cheating a little! I agree that some of the puzzles were almost impossible without a hint or many hints. This is the first HO game that I can remember having great music, not the usual annoying, monotonous kind. Kudos to everyone who worked on this game.

I am still on the third ring of circles. I found one "beetle" makes all the circles flash at at one time. Are they supposed to flash in a certain order or stay solid? I don't know what is supposed to happen when I have the right combination.

Please, I lost a piece of journal, exactly the 18. And I can't go on with the game. How can I replay a level? It desapears of my screen. Thanks

If you just keep pushing on hint it will solve the last puzzle for you. And each time you have to go back there to open another of the doors just keep pushing on hint and it will solve the puzzle for you and open the door to the next room. I don't know why everyone thinks the graphics are poor I think that they are very good, the ones that are fuzzy are in caves and underwater which you would expect to be fuzzy or darker than the others, the rest of the graphics are great especially the opening scenes.

If you push menu you will see that there is a place to push that will let you restart a level, I had to replay the whole game before I discovered this because the first time I played it I closed the game out at the first gear level and when I reopened it all of my gears were gone and I couldn't figure how to get them back so restarted the game and accidently found the restart level button when I lost another inventory piece in that game.

Well, I don't know if I did all 4 phases right or the game took pity on me after so many tries. I went back to the game to give it one more try and hit the Hint button out of sheer desperation and voila! It said I had completed the puzzle. I am now trying to finish and with the help of the walkthrough I am sure I will now finish. Thanks a lot to the people that worked so hard to bring this walkthrough to us. I really appreciate it.

It is a really good game and I am doing the same as Scooter, i look for the beetles first, then I use the silhouettes a lot. And what a great idea to have a solve button! Those monkeys were driving me crazy. I can do a little bit of logic but not much!

Thks for the tip Lizzie in another thread, the journal is indeed so funny to read with this old guy obsessed with food!
And about the metronome, yes it is the key to make the snakes dance. Just keep on turning the button! -
I just finished the game - and I think it is my favorite - I really like the way it is challenging but not impossible! I don't like games that are TOO easy or ones that are impossible without following the walkthru all the way thru the game - what is the point of that!!
THis is a keeper!

Ibought this game a few weeks ago and I am hooked! Love the UFO that flies around some of the scenes..might be where his assistant disaappeared to LOL
I do find that some areas of the screen are a tad dark though, but I adjust the screen settings now and again, and this helps a bit.

Just started playing the game. The main problem I have is that I am partly colour blind which makes finding some of the bugs and other items tricky. That said I am enjoying the game and hope to get to the end without too much trouble.
