Fun game December 16, 2006
David Linzer (California)
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Overall a good game. You will occasionally need to refer to a walkthrough (You can find one that some kind soul posted free online by Googleing the title of a game and "walkthrough".) However, almost all adventure/puzzle games are like this. Either you periodically refer to a walkthrough, or you get frustrated at some point where you are stuck and shelve the game.
Nice graphics. Some of the cutscenes are very simple, comic-book like drawings with sound. This sounds cheap, and I am sure it saved a lot of programming time as compared to computer animations, but it is really quite enjoyable. In fact, I think I liked it better than animated cutscenes!
Overall, a good game. I wish they had more adventure games like this. No blabbing, droning dialog that goes on forever. No endless reading of volumous diaries. Just problem solving and exploration.
 Absolutely Fabulous January 5, 2007

Terrific graphics, easy navigation, challenging variety of puzzles. My only complaint was that it wasn't long enough!
 Not what I expected March 30, 2007
Lorena Simon
I found the game somewhat boring and hard to follow. It was frustrating not being able to do things with the multiple tools I had in my inventory. While this is not my type of game, people interested in assembling things and making "experiments" might enjoy it.
Excellent April 5, 2007

I personally found this game to be the most fun Adventure Game I have played, and believe me, I've played alot of them.
My favorite aspect of this game is the inventory interaction. Having to combined items to make other items was more fun than playing the actual game. I hope there is a sequel!!!!
Great Game April 11, 2007

The best thing about this game is the way you can combine objects to make new ones. Then you can take them apart again to make a different object.The Adventure Company RETOMYSTISLAND Return To Mysterious Island [windows 98/me/2000/xp]
