Thanks BFG Guy, I played this game for 5 minutes and immediatly bought the game. I love it!
Annabel is so different then the other hidden objects. The puzzles are fun, although the domino's did take awhile for me to complete but with the help of hubby we won it.
I love the voice overs, because I dislike games I just have to read, for me it is hard to get into the character without a voice. The game even has a sense of humor. I laughed when I saw the Mummy! Yep this game is a winner and really hope more games will follow this example in many ways.
It is strange even though I suffer from motion sickness in many games this game has not effected me, at least not yet. I hope there will be more games like this I will buy it.
The Hint meter quickly fills up when we get stuck. The one thing that would have been appreciated after reading some of the posts is a skip for a puzzle, it sounds like later I may need it.
Ah well there are always the ones with more brains then me, like Margie or Mag,or another GB someone will figure it out and let me know how to win the puzzle.
EDIT...............
Whoops forgot to mention this. Thus far I have had no problem with any glitches. I finished the domino's really needed to show an example on this. However there are 2 tiles at the top of page. I thought those tiles were decoration. Wrong! You drag a tile from the bottom of the page to match with the same symbol but different color. Like red snake next to a blue snake. or red eye has to go next to a blue eye. Get the picture?
Now here is the tricky part, some tiles for instance are all one color, say all blue, or all red. What do you do? You will see that as you drag the bottom piece to the top where the 2 pieces cannot be moved that you are to build off those 2 pieces. The arrows will direct you where your able to place the pieces. When you have one tile that is the same color the arrows will not continue its a dead end.
I wish I had a screen shot of how I finished it, but it happens so fast and unexpected. When I won it surprised me. Remember follow the arrows up and down and across. just drag and it it's a match, it will automatically rotate if necessary and snap into place.
Sorry, don't know if any of this makes sense, but I hope it will help someone.
BTW I had no problem opening any door not even by the snake. You have to get the flute from the girl before you can open the door. To get the flute, you go to one of the girls by the fountain and she will exchange the flute for a bunch of roses. To get the roses you have to find the scissors to cut the roses. After you get the flute you click on the snake and watch what happens, the door will open at the same time.

Someone on the Big Fish forums said they just closed their eyes during screen transitions, so you are not alone in your feelings. It didn't bother me too much, but then again I was finishing up the Adventures of Robinson Crusoe and haven't played much of the game yet.
to my surprise I did it!!! I played this wonderful game all the way through ... it even had the savory feeling of Nancy Drew without being time-pressed ...
