I'm very disappointed. I tried to download it 3 times and it keeps saying "download interrupted" and to check my connection but my cable is connected. I guess I'll have to clean house. 
Prices are going up everywhere except in our incomes.

Guybrush what is Fahrenheit and Fate and where did you find it? The title is entriguing
great great game ... finished it once and now playing again to enjoy the settings and to not skip by the puzzles that enable "Solve"
question about the screens where we search for 20 somethings ... I often wonder if some of them don't appear early on and then come on later ... or is it that I just didn't see them at first
as a computer programmer in my previous life, I'm always interested in how the developers put it together ... this one is one of the best yet

I am loving this game! I even think the music is fantastic. I find mysellf humming the tunes. Kind of reminds me of Indiana Jones.
Big Fish did it again with a wonderful game.

The music is all original scores conceived by BFG, Composed by our partner Somatone and performed and recorded by the Berlin Symphony orchestra. Not cheap, but so much better than prefab "clip" music most games use.

I love this game too. I was actually getting tired of HOGs. Then this one came along and I'm hooked all over again. Gotta be my all time favorite HOG to date. More like this one please! 
I child-proofed my home... but they're still getting in!

 Wow! Purchased this game this morning and I'm just now taking a break! I'm loving this game; the storyline, (some humorous points in the diary  ) the music, the graphics. It's all good! Thank you, Big Fish!
Woohoo and booyah!  Have an easy peasy day!

Not cheap, but so much better than prefab "clip" music most games use. Wow, that is amazing! You really can tell the quality of the music by listening. Amazon is so incredible in every way that I can't wait to see what you have in store for us with MCF 5 and Azada 2!

See, I knew I really liked the music!! It really helps to draw you into the game. Somatone and the Berlin Symphony Orchestra did a great job. It makes me feel like I am really there.It just helps to makes the overall package a quality item. Now, if only real life could come with a sound track.
Thanks Big Fish Guy for not skimping on the quality.

 Wow!! Just finished this game and, for a HOG, it is vast! Great story, wonderful quality, humor, beautiful to look at, and real brain teasers. One of the best, if not the best, HOG I've played. Thank you, again, Big Fish! Awesome job!
Woohoo and booyah!  Have an easy peasy day!

Downloaded with no problem except it took forever--now I know why! This is a great game with beautiful graphics and interesting but not too difficult puzzles. I too was getting tired of HOGs but this has renewed my interest.

The sites up and running. Fast download. Ready to go. Any idea why BFG sent me a postcard over the big water telling me about it? Won't that add to their expenses which in turn will be passed to on us?

We have never raised prices. The cost is in making the games. Relative to that, sending postcards to our best customers is relatively inexpensive.

cris, I must say that most of us are more than thrilled to receive a postcard or anything else from BigFish. I save them and use them as bookmarks. I think it's a nice touch. Also, I have never seen a price increase on BigFish yet and the GameClub brings the opportunity of owning a bunch of quality games, for little investment a possibility to many homes. Kudos to BigFish for running a class act site. Ana

I was also pleased to get a postcard and am using it for a bookmark. I'm a designer so I like to keep well designed postcards. Oh, more riddles re: the plush toy fish. Can't wait!
