Dream Chronicles - Nintendo DS

I got this game because amazon suggested it to me and I needed to somehow get to 25 dollars for free shipping. I read stuff about this game and reviews but I really didn't get what it was all about.When it came in I popped in my DS and started right away.You start off as a women/wife/mother waking up in your bedroom and you notice your husband isn't around and you're locked in your bedroom, and you have to figure out how to get out, this was pretty easy to figure out. It's sort of like mist where you can't talk to anyone you just have to figure out what you should do in the room you're in and move on to the next room and figure what you need to do there, and you do that till you reach the end of the game.It's pretty easy to figure out the "puzzles" for each room/place, it's mostly about finding all the items and putting them in the right place to open the door or gate to the next part of the game. To be honest you can pretty much just tap the screen till it solves itself, so if you're lost just start tapping away and you will probably stubble upon what you need to do.I played this pretty casually for about 3 days before I beat it. Yeah it was that quick I would say it took me about 5 hours to beat it.I find that it's annoying that you can't back track... and you can't view your game after you "beat" it. Throughout the game you can find these gems that fill in pictures in your book, it kind of looks like stain glass pictures. I wanted to find all those gems but the way the game is set up you can't do that. When you beat it, it keeps your score of the game, and the only option you can do is start a new game.I would say this game was definitely fun because I wanted to beat the puzzle to move on the next section and figure out what happened to my husband but it did really disappointment that there wasn't very much to this game, I guess I was hoping that the puzzles would get harder and that I was only at the very beginning of the game but nope the puzzles you start off with are pretty much like the puzzles you are going to play throughout the game.This game was fun enough, I'm not sure if I would suggest to anyone to buy it. Maybe borrow it from a friend or rent it.

I have to admit, I found this game a bit tedious in the beginning, but once I relaxed and played without distractions (my kids), I found this game very enjoyable. There are times when tapping is required, but it serves a purpose!! You have to hunt for objects in the bushes, dig in the dirt and assemble objects in order to solve the puzzles to advance to the next chapter. Clicking on objects ALWAYS tells you something about them, including whether or not you need them! All puzzles can be solved without any special knowledge, they may just take a little patience. The scenery is beautiful and the story that unfolds in each chapter is fantasy based. Ultimately, I decided this is a fantastic and very fun game. I'd play it again, but will have to wait until I've forgotten the answers to the puzzles!I very much hope they follow this up with a sequel, as the story concludes itself....but with a cliffhanger!P.S. On one or two levels, you will need to re-check the room for new objects which have appeared after completing a task....I got stuck once on this, but have another look around and you'll be fine!

I played this game on my PC years ago and was so happy that I could play it again.

This is a good game combining searching with puzzle and problem solving. It's challenging enough to keep you interested, but not so challenging as to be frustrating. (and sending you running to find "cheat" solutions online) The graphics are good and this game was an entertaining diversion. On the down-side, the game ends rather abruptly and also, if you leave a level before finishing, you must re-start that level from scratch when you return. This is affordable entertainment!

This was a different kind of game - I thought it was strictly a hidden object game, but it was not. There was much more storyline than I am used to, and several challenges in between puzzle/object levels. I didn't give it 5 stars because sometimes I had to "cheat" to find answers to levels. Also, there is the problem of random tapping for invisible objects. Overall, though, it packed a lot more gameplay than I imagined it would.

I received the product as promised and I am very satisfied with it. Awesome

This game came like new and I have found it very funand easy to play. I am very happy overall with thepurchase and would recommend this game or theseller.
