Nightmares from the Deep: The Cursed Heart - Collector's Edition

Nightmares from the Deep is very well made. The art is colorful and very nicely drawn. Some of the scenes are really top-notch, like the view from the deck of the boat looking out at Skull Island. The voice acting is good. The story is banal (save the girl from a ghost that wants to use her as a vessel to resurrect his dead lover) but the cut scenes are nicely done and I enjoyed the element of finding doubloons hidden throughout the game that unlock animation snippets of the back-story. The hidden object scenes are nicely drawn but entirely too simple - no challenge at all. I do like that previously found items are no longer in the scene when you return to it, which is a nice touch. The inventory puzzles are generally straightforward and logical, which I appreciate. The minigames are interesting but generally too easy.The Collector's Edition extras are nothing special. The bonus game is a nice little story that takes place immediately after the ending of the main game, but it is short (30 minutes) and not worth paying extra for IMO - so grab  Nightmares From The Deep [Download ] if it saves you a few dollars. If you really enjoy these kind of games, take a look at the game collection that this game is included in:  Mystery Masters: Twisted Tales - 20 Pack  - a much better deal than buying this game alone (if you haven't already played most of the games in the collection).Overall, this is a fine game. I didn't enjoy it quite as much as some other hidden object games like  Brink of Consciousness: Dorian Gray Syndrome - Collector's Edition  or  Dark Strokes: Sins of the Fathers - Collector's Edition , but it is well above average for the genre and well worth playing.

The mini games were easy to do. The game was not short which I was happy about. I worked on it for 2 and a half days. A little easy to find the hidden items. It was a bit scary. I did not use the strategy guide. You can play without it. Would recommend anyone buying this game. It would be a good starter game for someone not used to playing hidden object games.

I liked this game because it gave you a map to show where you needed to go. But sometimes I like things a little more challenging.

At first I was not too enthused with this game but gave it some time, about 15 minutes, and then all was good with it.

Trusted other reviews and purchased. Liked enough to purchase 2nd game in Nightmares from the Deep.

this good to,and play both when I can

this game is a slow starter,game has great graphics. It will,however, restart you from the beginning at random. It was very frustrating. I do not play this anymore...tried several times.got almost finished and it restarted on me.

The graphics are very good, good story line and interesting puzzles,

Does not work! Try tried no go.

Absolutely loved the storyline, graphics, I'm new to this type of game & it really kept me interested & seeking...also liked the short bonus game

pleasingly errie and entertaining
