Mythic Wonders Philosophers Stone - wonderful fun
Dracyy
I don't remember seeing this developer before. Great first effort though! Good story, wonderful artwork, has transporting indicated map (map tab in the journal), labeled inventory, morphing objects, fast skip button but not really needed as puzzles are good but not insane and have good directions. Hint takes a second to respond but when it does it is quite clear. Deducted a star because it only offers two difficulty modes: casual or expert. Overall verdict is buy and enjoy
Too Strange!

Not enjoyable at all. Makes no sense and nothing logical about it! Aside from the pretty graphics, I feel this game is not worth much. Should be free. No excitement to give any anticipation of where this is headed. Not finished yet, having a difficult time getting motivated. After, your last release, this is a Huge let down! KdBoots
Nothing special

I am half way through with no glitches so far, but graphics seem "muddy" and indistinct. The hint button has an annoying delay as well. Story line is confusing and pointless.
Enjoyable

Had a good time. First time was in casual mode. Liked the interactive hidden objects games. I only wish the asterisks would disappear in the maps if all the games/items are found in the room. Felt like I was missing something.
"Un"Wonderful Glitches!

I had my ups and downs with this one. You and your scientist Uncle collaborated on an invention, which allows you to be transported through different portals to new worlds. Your Uncle has now disappeared through one, and you set off to find him. I liked traveling through numerous portals to different, undiscovered realms with each having its own story. Collecting pieces of codes that initiated puzzles to solve in order to activate the portals was a nice twist. I also enjoyed using the Philosophers Stone with the addition of using the added elements to perform actions, such as lighting up dark places and making wind to fly to a far away place. There were some good aspects in this game. The graphics were sharp, crisp, and clear although slightly cartoonish, with a full palette of colors, which could vary in shade depending on which universe you were at. There was not a whole lot of dialogue in this game although the voiceovers were nicely done. Inventory is labeled; but from what I remember, no assembly of items was performed. Transition between scenes was smooth and quick, with directional arrows to guide you. The HOS were varied and ranged from word lists with interaction to "find multiples of an object" or "find the difference". The puzzles were one of my favorite elements, and they ranged from very easy to "work it out a bit". Some were rotational or "flip the tiles to assemble a picture"; others were unique, such as moving numbered weights around branches of a tree to balance them. You have a very busy journal, which consists of your notes to record the story as you progress, objectives, artifact info, and the map. Now on to the bad aspects. 1. Only two modes of difficulty are offered with no option to customize settings. In addition, if you choose the harder mode, you cannot change your option during the game. Choose wisely! 2. For me, the map stunk! I chose the harder mode because the choices did not have any notes regarding a map so I thought I could change the mode in game. Not! I had to use a few hints, which I rarely do because in the harder mode, objectives are not available. So I ran in circles many times. 3. No back button. Even with directional arrows, I was taken back a screen several times. 4. I encountered numerous glitches in multiple HOS. I froze a few times and had to reboot although it was not fatal. Also I found that touch was unresponsive at times in acquiring items. 5. You are only collecting 20 morphing objects, and the extras are nothing worth mentioning. 6. The game mechanics, except for the last chapter in the main game, lack the innovation we saw in the last game. 7. I just started this game today; and I am already in the bonus, which tells me that this is a short, fast paced game. However, even with these issues, I gave the game three stars because I loved the graphics, the story, and the puzzles.

Nice game. Hints had an unfortunate delayed reaction I did not like. Graphics are ok but not my favorite. Map not great but I liked that there was not a ton of traveling to use objects. Wish more games were like that. If you have to travel a lot to use objects and don't have a good map or hint that takes you to the location, the game is not worth playing. All games should have a custom setting!!! Games were fun.

I can't seem to keep the hint button working. I have deleted and reloaded twice. please fix this problem so I can finish the game I purchased.
Ok to buy

Enjoyable game, not outstanding. The story and art was pretty good. I did not like the hint button either. The guide didn't crash the game, which has been a problem for me lately.
Mythic a Wonders an Exciting and Well-Polished Game

Would have been a 5 star game except that both the Hint and Skip buttons are slow to replenish. Other games let you set the refresh rate down to 15 seconds. And second, the interactive map only shows the active areas and not the next needed destination.
