    HOG Loaded With Fun Features, Sweet Kids’ Game
    Sunny Sunny Sunny

    BASED ON DEMO
     
    Unlike many other fairy tale and magic games such as the Princess Isabella and the Awakening series, I don’t think this game is likely to appeal to the “kid” in us all. It’s just a little too twee for that. It really is for the youngsters – probably pre-teens.

    But it’s a GREAT game for the RIGHT AUDIENCE. It’s got LOADS OF FUN THINGS TO DO:

    ·        List of HIDDEN OBJECTS to find in every scene, CHANGED EACH TIME YOU RETURN.
    ·        INTERACTIVE items where you may get a close up to find your items, or you may have to complete an easy puzzle.
    ·        COLLECTIBLE gems, 6 in each scene.
    ·        FAIRIES that when found find one item on your list for you.
    ·        ACHIEVEMENTS, some of them MYSTERY ones.
    ·        Sell your items to the local shop to GET COINS.
    ·        BUY UPGRADES to improve the school.
    ·        WALLPAPERS of each room, unlocked when you first visit.
    ·        Use your MAP, SPELLBOOK, and MAGIC WAND to help you, as well as HINT.

    You can also:

    ·        CHOOSE one of three CUSTOM CURSORS.
    ·        CORRECT for ASPECT RATIO.
    ·        Use SLIDERS for VOICE, FX, MUSIC, AMBIENT.
    ·        AUTO-ADVANCE the DIALOGUE.

    There is a HUGE amount of DIALOGUE, at least at first, so this last is a big help.

    I didn’t like the ‘cut and paste’ graphics, and found some things hard to see because they were small, but then I’m not 12 anymore.

    I cannot adequately explain why I think this is strictly kids’ stuff; perhaps because the STORY and the way it is EXPRESSED is pretty simple. You arrive at the Wizbury School of Magic just in time to discover that all the gold meant for renovations has been stolen and you offer your help to collect money and rebuild.

    To the younger crowd, I think you’ll love this!

    I recommend this game!
