If you like mild horror and puzzle games this is for you, it's also my childhood2 found this helpful
Fond memories, I used to play this game alllll the time when I was a sprout. It's short but it's fun. The art is just stunning I've always been a huge fan of the work that goes into these games. If you like hidden object games I do recommend, although 15 is a lil pricy for about 2 or so hours of gameplay, get it on sale1 found this helpful
This was a staple of my childhood, along with other games by Artifex Mundi, lmao i grew up playing hidden object games like this but still today they are so good, the story is good and the environment and game art is so high quality. I only wish that the new kids of today grew up playing this. Absolute peak. This was one of my favourites too. I would replay it just because. Might have to do another run of all of them again like I did when I was younger! highly reccomend if you're a parent letting your kid play this game. it was very entertaining for me as a child so who knows?
excellent

The game was ok, but if you are familiar with Artifex Mundi games, it just doesn't seem to be at their top level. There are some typos and grammatical errors, and some of the objects have absolutely weird names when you are looking for them in the hidden object scenes. Still, it is decent for a game of this type. 6.5 carnival games out of 10.
