I just started playing and love it so far. It's good to see the free trial and I wish your more recent games would still have that. I saw some of your games that I'd like to try, but I refuse to buy it without the "try before you buy" feature. I am in agreement with many others who want you to bring that back. This is why I give BF as a whole 4 stars. It's not fair to consumers to expect them to buy something without giving them the chance to see if they would enjoy it first. Please bring back the free trial.

Artogon and BigFish, well done! Fab game! Had everything I could want, except for two tiny mice which they did not make scary. Seems Snooper forgot to tell me you feed cheese to one of them, or hadn't yet gotten to that point. But I did not freak out! You'd be proud of me, and there weren't any RATS! The story-line was interesting and easy to follow. The graphics were gorgeous, the game was lengthy with bonus adventure, the journal and task list were very well-organized. The game flowed well and was very well tested. I did not experience any problems, and I think that people who did just weren't using inventory correctly or hadn't updated their iOS. Loading between locations was instantaneous, and there were many locations. But there was a great teleport map with marked objectives, so no useless running everywhere. Inventory was labeled. The HO scenes were varied, and there were tons of different puzzles! There were complex, or plus items, which I always enjoy. You collected black pearls to decorate a room and stuff for an aquarium. There was nothing I didn't like about this game! Please, more like this! I would rate this up there with the Empress series! I want to say hello to my wonderful Dream Team! I hope we have all congratulated Blueflier on her remission! Kudos! Thank you lovely people for being there for me, especially the amazing Snooper. I bet you were the best nurse on the planet! I love this team and anytime you want a respite, let me know. Each and every one of you would be a welcome guest in my home, which has a very gorgeous and very comfy guest suite. I have maids and a chauffeur and promise to spoil you, with spa trips and fine dining and shopping! So come on down! ❤️💋❤️💋 from Lynxie!

Artogon has a potential winner in Shiver, Lily's Requiem. You play as a doctor who has been recalled to a town in which people keep acquiring a mysterious illness that makes them hear music and behave as if hypnotized. The townspeople say it is caused by a female monster who took over the town and acted as a Lorelei, singing and bewitching the citizens. They caged her and abandoned that area of the town. You are trying to cure the sickness and dispel the monster. The game has a nice mixture of puzzles, everything from assembling a car engine from an auto manual, to lock puzzles, and Hidden Objects puzzles. There is a good Teleporting Map, and the Hint and Skip buttons work very well. There is a Diary and a good Strategy Guide. One of my favorite items is the Hidden Black Pearl. You collect these to buy items for your virtual aquarium. Fun! I have only completed the free trial so far, but I will be purchasing this one before the sale expires. Hurry to get your own game! And if you are having problems, perhaps you have not updated your operating system to the newest level. Good luck!

I love all the games that Artogon creates and this is one of their best! I honestly surprised that there are any poor reviews. I had zero glitchy problems and no crashes on iPad. It's a nice storyline just the right amount of HOS, so many different and unique mini games. The map makes it easy to know where you have to do your next action and allows you to jump right to it without having to get there manually. The ONLY thing I didn't like about this was when you select the guide it takes you to Big Fish guide page which is lame because it takes you completely out of the game each time so each time you use it and you go back to the game you have to start in from the main menu, but the game is pretty clear and the map is helpful along with the hint button I really didn't need to refer to the guide much anyways. I also like the little side game of collecting pearls and buying furniture and decorations for my house. Fun and creative game...I'm only sorry I finished it...so now I look forward to the next Artogon game.
