A slightly over-rated puzzle-fest, September 5, 2008by madducks (Indianapolis, Indiana) I never understood how "Winter Wonderland" got first place in '99. For a puzzle-piece it does have it's charm, and it is very well implemented, but I found the map flat, and mostly just unsatisfying, the character interactions were shallow and grating. The treacle story and prose have been commented on in other reviews, and indeed, it only exasperated my distaste for this one. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No Remove vote | Add a comment

Charming and enjoyable tale for the child (in you), September 2, 2008by Xiao Z. Jia (Ottawa, Canada) This is an immensely enjoyable game. I played it a few years ago but I still remember how much charm it had. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No Remove vote | Add a comment

- brattish (Canada), February 26, 2008 - Michel Nizette (Brussels, Belgium), January 18, 2008 - anj tuesday, November 18, 2007 - Michael R. Bacon (New Mexico), October 26, 2007 Baf's GuideYou're a little girl concerned about your ailing brother, and you're heading into town to buy a candle so that your family will have something to put on its solstice tree--but you stumble into a fantasy world. Thoroughly described and charming, though not necessarily to everyone's tastes--the sweetness quotient is high--and the writing is solid but sometimes gets a bit carried away. Several clever puzzles, but there's one rather unfortunate one in the latter stages of the game that most people have found frustrating. This would be a a good one for children (with the exception of the abovementioned puzzle)--there's a hint menu to help kids through the puzzles and the content is pretty benign. Includes ASCII graphics that can be disabled. -- Duncan Stevens
