The HO scenes for this games are still pretty easy as far as HO games go, but they are harder than the other games in the series. I still love the characters in this series. This game has a little better graphics than the other three games (still not realistic, but more beautiful this time). Worth 7 bucks, in my opinion.

The storyline is relaxed, and unlinke other HOG, you do not feel stressed by peering into detalis, but feel relaxed, and feel smart when you catch on. Amusing clever details, like causing an anvalanche by finding noisemkeras and using them. Still not the same level of fun "building of contraptions" as in previous games. Storyline, even if kept in background, is engaging and always there. Loved the scanners used in different scenes, as they upped the challenge.

I REALLY liked playing this game BUT I did NOT like the following: *CONSTANTLY having to click on an item time and time and time again before it could be picked up Several times I used the hint button only to discover that, in fact, what I was trying to pick up was the correct item. I found that aspect of the game VERY annoying and frustrating.

That's all this was...one big HOG. There was no adventure, a couple of very lame tiny puzzles. You were popped from HOG screen to HOG screen. The most boring game I have ever played. I don't mind HO, but with decent graphics and story etc.
