Shocking standard for a game on the market in 2007
I played better games (graphics, storyline, interface) in the late 80's and 25 years later... something like this is being sold? I can't believe that I just paid $30 for this; wouldn't pay $5 if I had to do it over again. I played for 20 mins and am likely to never again load the game. Disappointed in macgamestore for not screening this out of their inventory.
This game was so boring I can only think it is someone's idea of a joke. You don't have to work anything out. I can't believe anyone would call them four different levels. Game play identical in all with a different lame backdrop. I'm so embarrassed I paid for this please don't do the same.
Loved the game when I played it. Could not discover how to play again until I read a review. Very sorry that all of the objects are the same the second time. Fix this, and the game would be perfect.
The graphics are cute, the game is fun amd addictive, but some technical issues make it highly unpleasant. On my Mac Intel it crashes very often, usually on launching the app. The really ugly bit is that it does not run in full-screen mode on my mac, even after having installed it again... so the game is fun, i just haven't enjoyed playing it because of the technical quirks which made it useless.
I bought this a few months ago for $60 to help me learn to hover in an R22 helicopter. I also bought MSN Flight Sim 2000 for $20. The sys req on the box matched my system, but I couldn't get the game to play very well. Every time I got into a helicopter, the thing rolled over to the right and crashed every time, then would either freeze or play a replay of the wreckage. Then my mac crashed so I bought the latest mac a few weeks ago and guess what? Even though my system far exceeds the requirements of this game, it tells me I need to update and buy a new computer! Even on the lowest frame rate and details settings. And I'm still experiencing the same problem - as soon as I get into the helicopter it drives itself into what seems like dynamic rollover and destroys itself....and it's not my flying that is doing that!
MSN Flight Sim on the other hand, is worthy product if you are looking to experience flight in the safety of your armchair. It accelerated my training and saved me big $$$$ in repeated hover lessons. A very realistic and excellent tool for instrument training, too.
I was late for work one day playing this game. You can become addictive to this game within 20 seconds of playing the game! REminds of the one they have on Nintendo DS. A must have for any Mac user.
This was one of the best ever. I could not let go and hopefully will be rewarded with more games by Big Fish Games and their diabolical left-brain/right brain puzzles.
The game at any level, even easy, is challenging. The cagey programmer will drive you crazy with not letting you win the advanced stages on all levels the first time. You tell yourself, "that's it. No more" and you are back again trying to get to the final pharaoh prize. I have played all the Luxor games and probably will drive myself crazy with this one too.
Great fun, but takes too long to buy new shops - once you get an assitant, things go quicker, but the assistant could do more - if I were hiring her for real, she would be fired. Generally this game is good quick witted fun!
I have never enjoyed Monopoly so much in my entire life. I have had computer versions of the game before but hardly gave them any chance. In the few days of buying this game, I have played it for many hours.
I have always found the board version confusing and tedious but this game takes all of that away and let's you strategize the way you should. The A.I. is challenging and, most importantly, you can turn off the annoying music AND turn off the "computer moves" so your turns come faster.
Great graphics, just like the other Luxor games! A nice challenge, levels progress at a good pace. The only thing that isn't excellent is the sound, it gets on my nerves, thank goodness for the mute button.
The game is a pleasant experience and fun to play - highly recommended!
Everything about this game is great. It is a wonderful challenge with enough levels to keep you interested and improving your skills. I have purchased all of the Luxor series and enjoy all!
