One star to counterbalance 5 star reviews.
This game COULD be fun.....IF you ever had enough energy to play for more than 10 minutes at a time.
Someone's review said she could get lost in the game, playing for hours! HOURS? Really? I wonder how this is accomplished. I solved everything I was given within the time limits but then hit a brick wall over energy after about 10 minutes of play.
Of COURSE I was then asked if I wanted to restore 30 energy for 15 rubies. Since I'm unsure what other more important things need the few rubies I have collected, if any, I declined this "offer".
Also noted is that if you don't have enough rubies to buy more energy, you can always visit the "bank" so you can BUY some! Oh! How nice. You give me 10 minutes of playing time, then expect me to PAY TO PLAY more?
This is ridiculous!
Many of the HO games are very difficult even with the zoom option. Many needed items are often almost completely hidden by other things making it necessary to tap around trying to get the item....this, of course, causes mis-taps and after 3 of those you are penalized with a loss of time! You only get 2 or 3 minutes to find all the items to begin with so this can be an issue too if you've mis-tapped a few times, you probably won't have enough time left to finish finding all the items.....but cheer up! You can always try again if you have any energy left.....or you can BUY some!
I am already bored & aggravated & frustrated after having this game for 3 days and only being able to play it about 10 minutes at a time before energy is gone.
Really, Devs, you have a potentially great game ruined by GREED!
As it stands right now, this game has DELETE written all over it!
