Loved the first one and for me, this one was even better. Played this version on hard mode and I loved the challenge. Hard mode, the pieces don't automatically rotate to the correct position. The pictures are absolutely gorgeous! Can't wait for another one and/or more DLC!

Unfortunately, this is not one of the better MOAIs. The developers went the wrong way with this "version". Some levels have ghosts which are overwhelming and unending. It takes forever to get through those levels because of them. Other levels you need so much of one resource that it becomes boring just waiting for them to be made to get through the obstacles. I play casual mode, so for those who play normal mode (or whatever it's called), I only hope you don't get as frustrated as I have. On top of that, I have had many levels where I get an "application error" and I have to start all over again. That did happen on one level with those horrible ghosts. I was just about to finish and it threw me out. Was not happy.

I loved the previous versions and will have no problem playing them again. I'll be lucky if I finish this one. Definitely won't play it again and don't recommend it at this point.

I was a little apprehensive about buying this Season Pass at this point of the game's "development". Right now there are 7 extra boards and 51 extra characters to choose from (beyond the base game). Even at the sale price of 50% off, it seemed a little much. But when I started playing with those boards and characters, even though the play of the game is the same, the atmosphere for each board is really cool. The music, rooms and sounds all fit the board titles perfectly. Each board gives you a different experience. The game itself is the same, but it seems different. Hopefully they come out with a few more boards to add to the experience.

My Brother Rabbit is a wonderful, imaginative, colorful game. It's more than a game, it's an experience. You take on the roll as the older brother (Rabbit) of a sister (Flower) who has fallen ill. The only way he can help her is with his imagination. The music (beautiful) and the artwork (wondrous) tell the story. Because these two factors are done so well, you don't need words. My favorite scenes/puzzles were the machines you had to find the parts for. With every new part, you get an added musical section. I did have to check the walkthrough a couple of times on some puzzles because you really have no instructions. One part in the last chapter I found very poignant was how Rabbit was sweating and struggling to hold up Flower . Nice touch. Well done Artifex Mundi!

This is a great little word game. It is somewhat similar to Bookworm Adventures but with more of a challenge. There are levels that are timed, monsters that only take damage from certain length words or certain letters and probably more challenges that I haven't reached yet. There are also power-ups that you don't see in Bookworm Adventures. The only thing that I don't like about this game is that I keep saying "one more try, one more try" everytime I don't get the star. I can't stop playing it. This game will definitely be played over and over again.
