    Great so far except...

    This is great but there are sometimes items I need to find that are hidden behind the hint and journal buttons. Really just a minor annoyance. Great graphics and compelling story. The hints are numerous and the directions very direct. Great for beginners to the genre.

    This was my first game app on my new Nook Tablet. I love it. E

    This was my first game app on my new Nook Tablet. I love it. Everything I wanted. Graphics are fantastic. Fortunately there is a hint button. Definately would like to find more games like this one. And thanks to those that wrote a review. It helped steer me from those that were having trouble. This one is troublefree. And very addicting. Now I know why my kids don't want to help with housework.

    Good game but to short

    I enjoyed playing the game but I finished the game in a few days. I didn't spend hours on it either. The story line was good but the endind left you hanging.

    A little frustrating

    I love Hidden Object games. This has lovely graphics and a typical story. I can't rate the game higher because it doesn't seem quite designed for the Nook. HOs that were located behind fixed game structures, such as the menu button, were very difficult to see and/or select.

    My 60 yr old eyes also had some difficulty finding the right focus for some of the details. It would be nice if these games came with an onboard magnifying glass to accomodate older eyes.

    A good start to this emerging Nook genre, but there is room for improvement.

    A Must Have

    This is the best game I've purchased, hands down!!!!!! The graphics are stunning with 3D like effects and subtle movements like smoke and shadows from trees. Once you get over these fantastic effects, if you can, the game challenges you in a variety of ways that never become boring. I highly reccommend this game. It is clever, original and worth every penny. Congratulations Nook and the creators of this game! I will purchase more of this kind if they exist.

    Objects not accessable

    There are frequently - so far on each screen I have played - clues hidden behind action burtons on the play screen. Why would you place objects to be found in the game behind action buttons - like the menu button - on the playscreen? Seems obvious you would not want to do that. The graphics, action, and clarity are good but hard to advance when you cant see or access parts of the screen needed to play the game.

    Fun but not challenging enough

    Graphics are awesome. Story line is great. But unlimited hits and touches makes this game not as challenging as other games.
