    What started as a pleasant enough puzzler (if a bit dated) turned into an abysmal mess of illogical puzzles, impossible to find items and pitiful crashes.

    Disastrously conceived with terrible voice acting... this is perfect example of why we almost lost the "point and click" adventure altogether. I recommend that any one who likes "point and click" puzzle games AVOIDS this pile of    What started as a pleasant enough puzzler (if a bit dated) turned into an abysmal mess of illogical puzzles, impossible to find items and pitiful crashes.

    I recommend that any one who likes "point and click" puzzle games AVOIDS this pile of binary excrement like the plague. Play something like "The Longest Journey" instead... and have fun! :0)    … Expand

    The game begins with puzzles. takes a little time to solve them, but when you begin to understand them, the game starts to get extremely amazing.takes a while for it resets because the puzzles are incredible like Professor Layton

    Appalling voice acting makes this feel very shoddy, though with the sound turned down it's a passable 'entry level' point 'n' clicker if you can find it cheap. [July 2009, p.77]

    Less thinking more stroking (steady now!) of blurry static visuals with a stylus in search of the vital clues. [Aug 2009, p.84]

    The game is a simple port of the PC-version, without a good control scheme. There are some fun puzzles, but there are too little to entertain you for hours.
