Timer is too fast but fun

Update: I am updating my previous review, we are rating this as 5 stars as we enjoy playing this in just casual only, since we are too old to bit the timer. Thank youThis game is great for eye catching how quick you will find the objects and match them up, when you are senior citizen it's so hard to do casual game as the time is so fast. It's frustrating for me as I played repeatedly to test how will I can beat the timer. Therefore, 3 stars only for now until they adjust the lights or background of the color so you my wife can enjoy alittle bit, then, I will update my review. Thanks .

Such a disappointment. I'm torn because their last HOG was a great game. This isn't like any of their other games.(Dreamscape, witches prank, contract with the devil) This to me isn't a hidden object game at all, but a find the match and then you read a little about the story. After you find the match again in the next "round" you read a little more about the story. It's not a story driven hidden object game like I'm accustomed too. I am a huge fan of the HOG, have thousands of games throughout the years and Big Dish, G5, Five BN, Artifex Mundi, etc, those are the story driven HOGs. This isn't. If you like the type of game that doesn't have a real story, doesn't have actors, voice overs etc, then this is your game. I couldn't take but 10 minutes of find the match. I was done after that. Highly disappointed because it's been forever sense this developer came out with a new game, and their last one was a huge hit to me. I wish they would go back to the story type HOGs. Sorry but I can't give more stars for this. My rating is a 2! 😞 🎄🎊Happy New Year to all the wonderful HOG players/reviewers out there! 🎄🎊

Great way to wind down, relax, no pressure, play a few minutes at a time or as long as you want. Some games are really story, character, time and figure it out driven. This is for relaxing. Great colors, super cute things, really pretty pictures that will make you smile. I love them!! It’s not your typical HO game and that’s what makes it great! It isn’t meant to be. Easy to know what to do, with plenty of variety to keep things interesting.
