On this one I agree with a lot of the reviewers from Big Fish, this is a great game and I would even call it an “Adv. lite game” and I noticed from a lot of the reviewers that the HOs scenes would not close after finishing it and they were right but I also noticed that once you finish a certain HO scene that there was still an article that you had to get on your own which may explain the HO scene not closing automatically, still no excuse and maybe the developer should patch this small glitch. I tested this game for 54 minutes and it is a Buy for me, my criteria’s for buying a Casual game (since I am an Adv. game person 1st) is the HO scenes themselves: A) Are they too hard to spot? B) Does the Hint button refresh quick enough and the most Important along with A and B above… Drum Roll…… C)If one gets punished for 4 clicks or less, then this game = Goodbye, Sayonara, Salut, Get out of my Face, Delete, Garbage, Hit the Road Jack don’t come back no more, etc.. Regardless of positive reviews by other reviewers… Well this game has it’s share of HOs and a few items within each HOs for me are hard to spot, But No Penalty for Over-Clicking and the Hint button refreshes fairly quick so I can forgive the number of HOs + the game story for me is very interesting and the graphics very clear and based on the Demo, the story seems to be interesting and the cut scenes are fun to watch.
Note: For some of you who have small download speed you will have to be patient, I am at the cottage with download speed averaging 1.2Mbps and it took me about 90 minutes to download, it is a Huge file for a demo , the demo file = 800MB.

Not a bit Starcom. I am always happy to see why or why not someone likes a game. It helps decide if it's worth a look. Ana

This game confused me. It starts out talking about a seventeen year old girl and a thirteen year old boy losing their father. Then the lead character starts talking about her brother's new family. Huh? Apparently some years have passed, although that's never made very clear. And she must mean that he's old enough to be married now. She can't make up her mind how to refer to the others. Most of the time she calls them "his family" as if she's not connected, but near the end she says "my family" but then at the very end its back to "his family".
Oh the villain looked too young to me.

Well I bought the game a couple of days ago and finished it today and I agree with Sparkle’s review of the game but nonetheless this game is repayable for me only because it is….. well, different and amusing in it’s quirky ways and for those of you who bought the game and have not played it yet, let me know what you think of the Cut-Scenes, especially the Live actor cut scenes and on a scale of 1 to 5, 1= I can act better than that and 5 = WOW Oscar Nomination performance
