I personally wasn't over the top with this game, but I think younger kids will really enjoy this adventure searching the islands for your missing grandfather. This is a hidden object game where you have to find items that match the silhouetted shapes in your inventory bar. Once you find all of the items or pieces of the items, you then use those items accordingly. You might have to find all the boards to build a box, then find items that will be packed into the box. You will then play a mini game packing these items in a grid formation figuring out how all of the items will fit together. Then you will find a hammer and nails and the top boards to finish up the project. It isn't a bad game by far, just a little cartoonish and super simple which can easily become boring to an accomplished hogger, enjoy!
Although I am not a true fan of HOGs and I have a weakness for pure adventures - and the tougher the better - I surprised myself to find in this game a HOG that I liked. The story is good and not devoid of humor, far from it; some parts are really funny. It offers a nice feature: you explore different locations each with a different theme, and they all blend into something coherent at the end. Add to that the fact that our little red-head [ie: Alexandra] doesn't leave the other hero of the story, Jay, indifferent, and you're set for some good time. The graphics, depicting tropical sceneries, jungle locales, pyramids, buddhist temples, are quite nice though not oustanding and the music pleasant. There is a multitude of objects to find; you don't have a list, but a set of drawings representing them. Lots of them have to be combined. Tasks are multiple, a few of them are really funny [funny humoristic], and with 30 chapters - a record - you can be sure to have a good time, never get bored, and visit many locations. You won't find a profusion of puzzles, yet just enough to tickle your interest, as the search-find-combine-use aspect of the game is a long puzzle in itself. No major difficulty: hints are unlimited, you have a map showing your progress and minigames can be skipped. An older game that should neither be overlooked nor ignored because it is much better than some new releases.
Fun game to play. Not very hard but good story line to follow.
This looked like a nice game. The graphics aren't bad at all, but the challenge and the story are just blah. Match shapes, put them where they belong, move on to the next location. I didn't find the dialog to be very interesting either, just kind of dumb. I didn't even give it the full hour.
Just didn't do it. I liked the characters but the rest was pretty boring and it just didn't do it for me... Boring, slow...
This would actually be a fun game to play: A FROG (which means that you don't search for hidden objects, but that you receive a list of pictures, and you search for the fragments of it# in the style of "The Treasures of Mystery Island". The idea is good, the storyline nothing new, but entertaining enough, but the problem with this game are really the visuals. The images are somewhat grainy, which leads to a lot of more random clicking when searching for tiny objects. The music can get on your nerves quickly #repetetive), and the level of challenge is average. Overall, I would have really liked to play this game, since I like good FROGs, but this was just to hard to see. I gave up after the free trial time.
In a setting in which games tend towards the ponderous and gloomy, where HOGS become just an irritation to the flow of the game, and where you can't understand why those things got together, and where backtracking, to the point of making you forget where things go, seems obligatory, this game is just unalloyed fun. The objects in the HOS are alll things you need to go on with the action. And there is action. No backtracking. Each scene is its own minigame. The animation is fun, there can be quite a bit of plot with characters in a scene. There is quite a lot of humor. The puzzles are fun to do. I love the Samantha Swift games. This has done it one better.
Funny, delightful, good story, and with love in the air. Really beautiful game. I played it and laughed many times with Jay, who is a funny guy. I recommend this game.
