For those wondering about the bonus gameplay, it's different from the norm. It's not found at the end of the game. A moderator on Big Fish posted this: Please note that the bonus gameplay in this game is integrated in the main story.
One of the chapter is extended and the bonus play adds to the story.
So once you are playing the Collector's Edition, you will access the bonus at a certain chapter, not after the main gameplay. Some folks might get to the end of this game and wonder why there wasn't a bonus section, so I thought I would point this out.

Ana, I'm wondering how many will get to the end of the game with no bonus game there and will think it's a glitch. On the Big Fish forums, one of the game's developers posted this: We wanted to keep players in the mood of the story as they progressed to the bonus chapter, rather than taking them out of the atmosphere and plopping them down in unrelated 'extra' gameplay. That's why it's a seamless transition. We really hope everyone enjoys this style of bonus play! It's an interesting decision.

Marie Laveau seems to have hopped out of GK1 into this game. <g> Or am I remembering wrong?

I wonder if the game's makers did that on purpose as a small tribute to JJ or if voodoo and GK1 snuck into their subconscious and got into the game from there. <g>

Madame Laveau is a real person in New Orleans history. Check here in Wikipedia.This game is a "To be continued" one.

Here we have another nut heroine who spends the night alone in a dilapidated mansion in bed under a ceiling which she says looks as if it's about to collapse.
Oh, eyeballs? I'll just stick them in this stone guy's empty eyesockets and admire the glow they emit as he plays a mournful tune on a phantom violin. Certainly nothing about that to make anybody jump out of her skin. Arrgh!
Aside from a heroine who seems to be dead between the ears, the demo was short. It lasted 42 minutes and it wouldn't have been that long if it didn't move so slowly first and last.
I still think Jane Jensen stuffed the name of Marie Laveau into the developer's minds. GK1 is the only computer game I know of in which she had a part, even if only in the dialogue.

I'm still in the bank. Thus far, this is a superior casual game. The adventure game finding things elements are just tricky enough; a billiard ball puzzle made me feel like a fool, also good; and in general the people in charge of choosing HO objects both chose well thematically and also went to some trouble to name them accurately and cleverly, vinaigrette and domino come to mind as examples. The latter bamboozled me into admiration. When period piece western saddles have higher cantles, I'll be even more impressed.
Thank goodness, no snakes. If you live where there are some, you don't want to play games with them in scenes.
Only con: too many HOs. But, as I said, as HOs go these are top of the line.
