There’s a few scary parts but mostly this is a cute cat story with a cute twist on the classic tale of puss in boots. As long as the kid doesn’t get freaked out by small things, it should be fine. Lots of evil things end up not being so bad. Normally, with witchcraft stuff, I close the game, but this seemed pretty harmless. Good story, colorful, charming, fairly easy games, and the standard hunk for unlock items with some HoGs. Loved it. .

This is a cute game but not worth $4.99. IMO. It has some annoying things to it, also. The inventory drove me crazy because it kept closing whenever I opened it. I even locked it and it still closed somehow. I must not have paid attention as I was playing, because I got to the clock and needed to set the time to the time of the theft. Problem. I didn't know WHEN the theft took place and had no way of finding out. There wasn't any notebook, so, if I had found the time and forgot it, I was out of luck. Which I was. I had to wait so I could skip it. The "find the difference" puzzle was annoying, too, since you needed to close it to select the difference, and when it was open, you couldn't see the room. I'll buy it when it really IS on sale. But I hope they fix the week spots.

Updated review December 2018:Playing this game has become a Christmas tradition. It's still as fun and entertaining as the first time in 2015. However on game load it now crashes, and I suspect the crash is being caused by the Big Fish popup banner advertising other games or deals – because the crash and black screen happens on load at the time that popup appears. I've been able to get halfway through, then a third of the way, now I've given up. Nothing in my iPad, iOS or setup has changed in three years, and the game is still the same version, so the problem is very likely caused by Big Fish. I've read BF is no longer putting out these kind of games anyway, so one star just for that from a longtime customer. – – – – – – – – – – – – Updated review December 2016:Just finished playing again and everything in my December 2015 review below is still true. Fun, festive and funny. And Big Fish has good customer support at last, no more waiting 4 weeks for a reply, it takes a day or two (at the moment)– – – – – – – – – – – – December 2015 review:Delightful, snowy and festive game, with a magical storyline and a talking cat (no lazy and dumb ghouls and demons here!) Great music, seriously laugh-out-loud funny at times, somebody with a great sense of humor wrote this. Puzzles are pretty easy, but overall this is probably the best, funniest Big Fish game I've ever played. Laggy and glitchy in some of the puzzles, but that might be my 2-year old iPad.I just wish Big Fish didn't have such terrible customer service, which would make me an even happier customer. I read somewhere they've recently been bought out, so maybe (hopefully) things will improve. Big Fish if you're reading this, pull your Christmas stockings up, hire more staff and train them much better, because you have a potentially awesome company offering mostly great products.

Great game . Superb graphics, smooth game play. Some puzzles were easy others much more difficult. Played this with my granddaughter and she enjoyed it as well. Bonus game was pretty good too. If there is one fault it's that I tried putting the puzzles together in the bonus section and couldn't figure out how to rotate the pieces to make them fit.
