Con

  • Terrible voice acting.
  • Some of the hidden object puzzles are too easy.
  • Repeating hidden object puzzle features awful flashing light.
  • About half of the hidden object puzzles are really ugly.
  • Lots of annoying 'find the seven differences' puzzles.
  • It features Merlin.
  • A bit on the short side (2 hours).

Conclusion

On one hand, this is an obviously dated and weaker HOG by Artifex Mundi. On the other, it has lots of HOPs, great music and a story that's 'so bad that it's good'. Get it at a discount or in a bundle.
