Disappointed

Although I loved the idea of the game and the game was wonderful as expected coming fom G5 I was disappointed that the game was so short. There was a lot of time spent just walking back and forth. I don't think this is a 5 dollar game maybe 2 or 3.

    Good Game

    "Cypress Witch" is a good, entertaining, and very short Nook Tablet game. I finished it in 2.5 hours. That is really short for a G5 game. Normally, I can get 4-6 hours out of one game, depending on the difficulty. At $5 each you should get your moneys worth out of every game time. However short, it was fun to play anyway.

    Some of the puzzles need more detailed instructions. I had to do the "generate colored smoke" task 3 times before I worked it out. About half of the mini games were do-able for me. The other half abused the "help" or "skip" buttons.

    I liked the way that the story was told between sections did not use the usual cgi "cut scenes." Instead it used a series of single frame pictures to keep the story moving quickly. It explained some things, but not everything. It was a unique way to describe the storyline. It worked out well here.

    The voice acting was better than usual and seemed to fit the characters this time. Normally, I turn the sound off because it is annoying, distracting, or too loud.

    I wish the game was longer. I spent a lot of time on the boat, in the grooms familys home, and decorating tne hotel and grounds. But, the wedding was skipped over. I am disappointed. I would really like to know what happened after they crossed back into their own time. Did they continue camping and hanging out? Did they run away screaming? Did she write a book about their experiences with the good tree witch?

    The best things I can say were that the graphics were good. Movement was good. There were no penalties for over clicking. You could find useful items laying around without having to complete a mini game every time.

    And it did not say ( ...to be continued... ) I hate that so much! Paying $5 should get you a complete game, unless it is mentioned in the B&N description. (e.g. This is one part of a three part game.)

    Shorty

    Great game! The only thing is that it is much too short. It seemed to have ended in the middle of the story.

    You could do much worse!

    The game looked great and I enjoyed playing it. Fabulous graphics! However, some of the puzzles were aggravating because they required random luck rather than logic or skill - I never could figure out the rug weaving thing, for example. Also - and this is my fault - I found some of the pseudo-mysticism irksome. I should have anticipated that from the name, which is why I take the blame for that aspect. I did enjoy it despite all that, though.

    No I am not enjoying the game. It refuses to start if you save it and then goes to the start up screen. You have to push play ALOT before it starts and it usually tries to get you to buy another game before it will start. I have a nook hd + and don't feel I should be having this aggravation. I will finish because I like the story and want to see how it ends, otherwise this game would go in the cloud. The story is the only reason it gets a star.

    Gr8 Game!

    Really enjoyed this game. Good graphics and story line. Some of the puzzles were a little tough to figure out, but you can always use the "hint" option. Highly recommend.

    Fun puzzles!

    Fun game and good story. If you play a lot of these, you probably won't find this one that difficult, but it was still entertaining.

    Spirit walkers

    This game was the best g5 so far and I have been playing quite a few. The graphics......gorgeous. The story great. Puzzles were hard and took a bit of work but were not impossible. Enough hints without giving things away. I highly recommend this one.
