Ethan and Clair are in love. They are going to marry and they think nothing could rob them of their happiness. But, he receives a letter from his father and they have to go to Cedar Falls. At the train station, Clair gives a phoenix to her groom and they take the train ... A weird masked observes the couple at the station. The trip flows peaceful until ... A game very well developed, with great care to details. Excellent storyline, very well done following, gorgeous and crisp graphics, very good VO, great sound. Cutscenes are interesting and worth to be watched. Good amount of HOS, not challenging, but pleasant because they have good visibility and interactivity. Varied mini games, some new, some known but well done. Many great locations, with lot of things to do ... and the game flows ... not need to be going back and forth all the time ... This is great! Game provides great fun, although not really challenging. Excellent choice for the weekend! It came as a gift, especially after the release (TGT-Borgia) of yesterday! Definitely goes to my collection

This is a most excellent game! It is visually beautiful and the storyline kept my interest. I normally skip cutscenes, but not here. I didn't want to miss a thing! Of course, there was the usual crowbar serving as a HO, which made me laugh (how can one possibly make it through life without a crowbar?), but, in general, hidden-object scenes were very well designed, often containing multiple objects that need to be combined to create a third object. The game contains many minigames, but they are not overly difficult and can be solved rather quickly. This is how to put together an HOG, devs! Use this as a guidepost. I look forward to more games such as this, BigFish!

Wonderful game! First of all AMAZING cutscenes. Clair is bride from classic dreams: very very beautiful. Wallpaper with Clair in a wedding dress *love* thanks to developers. Plot is classic (kidnapping and secret from the past) but interesting. Bonus chapter is prequel and explains as the good guy became bad - I like it! Many bfg CE doesn't worth CE-money but this game really deserve this price. Now it's my favorite game! I like interective HOS, good story, no long foot-path and unexpected the history ending. Five ( I want to put six!!!) stars.

Compelling storyline - exciting and interesting (I normally don't read them - just click and go as most are boring). Can't wait to see what is going to happen next and it's usually not what you would expect. Not overly easy but not so difficult and exhausting that you want to quit the game. Skip buttons on all mini games so far, but you will want to to play these - they are different and fun. HOS are great; not too complicated to piece together the areas that need extra attention. Love that the strategy guide is built in. Went from trial directly into full version and still playing.

This is a fantastic game full of really good graphics! The storyline is good, puzzles are not too hard and the HOS are not junk piles. There is not alot of "long" back and forth between scenes. I highly recommend this game it's one of the best in alooooonnnnnggggg time! Thanks BF I will enjoy playing this today :)

This game has it all for me. Graphics are all clear, story line is very good, just everything about this game is so good. The mini games are Just different enough to make you think a wee bit more. Well worth the Friday CE. I would certainly buy this today, except I used a credit to buy game 4 for this month, so I will have to wait for now. Roll on April is all I can say.

This review is for the whole game and playing in Expert Mode The story: You take on the role of Ethan Black who has to rescue his bride to be Claire who has been kidnapped. 14 Chapters 4 Bonus Chapters Journal/Map Integrated Strategy Guide Voice Overs for some parts of the game then text on screen. 2 play modes: Casual/Expert - Hint/Skip take 2 minutes. Hint can also be used outside of HO scenes. Mini Games My overall impression of the game: I found the story very intriguing as I couldn't wait to see what happened next in this game even though it's been done many times before the kidnapping and family secret theme story. The graphics, cut scenes, and voice overs well I can sure tell there was some time and thought put into this game though I'll admit those characters popping up on the screen every so often really startled me. LOL! I also thought the HO scenes were pretty nice, crisp, clear for the most part and quite a few of them. A couple of areas were pretty dark and had to use hints for those. The first couple of chapters they are interactive but after that just normal HO scenes that you find by word list. This game just flowed very well with some traveling back/forth getting the inventory items which sometimes tells you what needs to be done. Lots of different locations to go to and lots to do however sometimes you do visit the same scenes for a few of the HO scenes. The mini games were for the most part pretty easy and fun though a couple I found a little challenging but far from frustrating. Oh and I must say this is the first time I've ever paid any attention to wallpapers being offered in a game but I just had to check these out for some reason and really enjoyed them and have the one of Ethan on my computer. I do have a couple small criticisms about this game but not enough to bring the rating down since I felt everything else about the game stands out but still needs to be mentioned: The map: I

I purchased this game immediately and really love it. The graphics are excellent, the cut-scenes extremely well done and the HOs challenging. The puzzles are well thought out and the storyline is original and well written. I also like the fact that it opens in widescreen. This Dev always seems to deliver the goods.

I really liked this game! The graphics were awesome and I know the creators made this game with a lot of thought and expertise! I will buy this one for sure! It is very challenging and you need to really need to think what to do to solve every puzzle and the hidden object scenes were really clever! A must have game!! The only thing I really would have changed is each scene could have had more things to do.

...is what I've been telling myself for two days. I had to finish this game! This is a rare one. The graphics are gorgeous. You didn't wander around with an inventory full of things, like a dummy, and no idea what to do with them. The story was kind of neat. The main character was gorgeous {yeah, ok, I'm being a sexist pigette here}. The game was LONG, the bonus chapter was long. I always turn the music off in games but this soundtrack was beautiful. It wasn't so easy that it got boring and wasn't too hard that you had to click on the hint {or strategy guide) just to figure out where you were standing. Clear HO.s, wonderful colors, beautiful graphics, nice twists on the usual. I can't wait to forget the game so I can play it again :) A lot of great creativity went into this game. I think you will like it, a LOT, it draws you in!
