With the new release I have had no problems and am actually enjoying the game. It is quite challenging at times, and I like that you can hunt for ?'s to gain additional hints. Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

I have to say, I really did enjoy this. I downloaded it recently and needed something in which to immerse myself, and this was it. I found the game play challenging, but not overly so. I was glitch-free, so none of the game play was interrupted. I found the length a little on the short side, but not bad compared to other games of its type. I hope that there is a "second story" some time soon. Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

"New" release (2nd) still has glitches... And I did all that research. Alwar is being very dishonest. I will never buy from them again. Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

I really like this game. The one hour demo was too short. I cannot wait for this to come out on Big Fish. I would definitely buy it and continue on. Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

Great potential, but it was ruined by releasing a game they KNEW did not work. Being unable to complete the puzzles makes it impossible to move forward so you cannot finish the game. And they won't address it, won't return customer service requests and won't refund money. Stay away from this game and alawar all together. Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

I had a hard time to get the game to work on the computer.It kept coming on and going off. I really didn't get to play the game. I had to delete it before I could play it. If the bugs in this game could actually be gone I would like to try to play it again. Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

Terrible. Way too many problems that prevent you moving forward with the game. Th beta testers noted all the problems in the game, but Alawar didn't bother to listen and released a flawed game anyway. Not sure what the point of beta testing is then! Alawar have not responded to anyone as yet, on the glitches in the game. Don't waste your money. Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

If the game didn't have the glitches, I'd give it 5 stars, because I love this game. With the glitches, though, 2 stars. Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

It was fantastic up until I hit the glitch & couldn't play any more. Testing should have picked up a major problem like that, and it's uncharacteristicly lazy of Alawar. I look forward to someday playing a working version of the game. Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

A game that cannot even be completed should not get any stars in my opinion Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

Unfortunately I can't give this game more than one star because I cannot continue to play it. Not by choice but because of the glitch. Very irresponsible for a company to release a game without fixing the problems in the game. Will never buy from Alawar again. Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

I loved playing this. It's a bit different to your normal hidden object game and has a few thought provoking moments. I loved the minigames too. Only downside is, it's not long enough. Would have liked more levels. I would highly recommend this game Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

Love it!!!!!!!!!! Some of the puzzles do puzzle me and wish there were some hints in certain sections. Grin!! Don't know how to paint the teepee. lol. Do own it and would recommend it to every and anyone who love to do hidden objects as much as I do. I agree if you get a chance to buy it do it! Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

Too many glitches. No response from Alawar. Had to restart game when a new version came out. A glitch in the new version at Scythion Burial Mound. Sent another email, no response. A few have played all the way through and a few have not. Great game but tired of the glitches. <BR> <BR> Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

I enjoyed this game. Stayed away when it just release after hearing lots of bugs with the puzzles. Just got it and finished it without any issue. Really like the sketches in between locations and loved the paintings of the places. The objects were broken and blend in quite well with the rest of the painting. Good story line, good music with right mood. Just find it kind of short. Hope there will be 2nd installment as all the amulets not used yet. Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate
