– Just "great"!Very addictive game! If you like "tower-games", you can't miss this one, it's one of the biggest in his kind. Looking out for the next version! by Fenriswolf, Belgium - Oct 5th 2012

– SucksI purchased this game a couple of years ago for my mbp 09 9400m 2.53ghz and never really got around to playing it. So i dusted off my computer and installed this game which was a quick download, unfortunately the port is terrible. My major gripe is with the cutscenes that use the game engine because the audio is 4 minutes behind so you'll hear the lines right away than your stuck for five minutes watching the prince and someone else lip sinc bc you cant skip the cutscenes. Personally this ruined the game for me, i played halfway through and the game mechanics are the same, the fighting system is sluggish and unreliable so its better just to stealthily dispatch enemies, and every cutscenes audio is short by five minutes. I uninstalled this POS right away. by gihaddd, USA - Oct 5th 2012

– Works amazing on MBP 15" Retina w/ 10.8.2I was hesitant after reading some of the reviews on here, but the Mac Game Store version plays extremely smooth on my new MBP Retina w/ Mountain Lion. The story, the graphics, the movement, it's all amazing. Highly recommended! The only weird thing is that it gave me a bunch of errors during installation, but it works so I don't care! :) by gecekusu, United Kingdom - Oct 4th 2012

– Woeful controlsThe absolute worst controls for a game with stupid onscreen icons that mean nothing and cryptic key descriptions which mean you don't know what to press Why oh why does it not support a controller. Other games do why not this one. Unplayable by Raya, Spain - Oct 4th 2012

– What fun!This is an amazingly fun game that will entertain you for hours. The graphics are terrific and the puzzles are absorbing. I highly recommend this terrific game. by Colleen B.1, USA - Oct 3rd 2012

– Crashes on 10.7 & 10.8 - buyer bewareThe game crashes for me every time I try to load a saved game. Mac Game Store's customer service was great and gave me a coupon for a different title, but unfortunately Aspyr's customer service brushed off the issue saying "10.7 and 10.8 aren't supported" which is silly considering their most recent description on the Mac App Store is "fully supports OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion". I'm sure it's a fun game, but what does that matter if you can't play it? by jontilton, USA - Oct 2nd 2012

– Not bad but boringThis is a classic game. It is very original and controls are fantastic. This game especially appeals to children but some adults may find it entertaining. I personally lost interest pretty quick because it lacks variety and the graphics are bad. For 10 bucks I doubt this game is worth it. by Bowser, - Oct 2nd 2012

– Good replay valueDefinitely challenging at times, the game will keep you coming back for more. The mini challenges are fun to go back and play again after the main storyline is finished and also to help hone those fighting skills. I would agree that not being able to customize the controls is a flaw and while using just the keyboard and mouse is possible, game play would be much improved with (and is designed for) a controller. A minor complaint is the lack of a jump function. Batman will jump when necessary, but not always when one expects or desired. Getting over obstacles can be frustrating at times. by Scott Henderson, USA - Oct 1st 2012

– Involving gameFun game and well worth the price. Given it's length I'm not sure I'd play it again soon, but can see how different choices would lead to very different game play. Ultimately the choices at the end would still be the same though. A little disappointed that there wasn't an option for dialog in the PG range. Hearing the F word repeatedly in a game is just not something I'm used to. Also not sure what the anti-Mormon rhetoric on the radio was about, but could have done without that too. by Scott Henderson, USA - Oct 1st 2012

– Not yet optimized for MacThe game itself is great, but its performance is so poor it barely runs on high-end iMacs and MacBook Pros - periodic slowdowns, crashes, memory leaks, and it's crazy that Intel HD 4000 graphics is not supported considering it drives much more sophisticated games just fine. Given the simplicity of CK2's graphics and interface, it shoud perform several orders of magnitude better. by sss4r, - Oct 1st 2012

– No relax mode!Not everyone wants to play against a timer all of the time. Some of the Fishdom games have a relaxed mode, but others don't. by JRPV, Canada - Sep 30th 2012

– Awesome game!For everyone who doesn't need constant action, but rather likes to think his/her way through a game Works perfectly fine on my Mid 2012 MBP 13 with i5 CPU by Sabrina Fende, Germany - Sep 30th 2012

– Mountain LionThe game doesn't work on Mountain Lion. At least on my Mac. I have all minimum requirements. My system is 10.8.2, Intel Mac, 4-cores, 2.3GHz, 8GB RAM, 128.5GB Free Drive Space and 579 of Video RAM. by yeltsin, Brazil - Sep 30th 2012

– Awesome! And it does work!First of all I would like to say that the individual who wrote, "Installation Failed" was blowing smoke the DLC does works! He or she may have installed it in the wrong place, does not have the requirements or just did not take the time to look up how to do it! Download/Install the DLC, Start up the game and entering the First Game Menu, Select "Extras"... From the "Extras" menu select "Exclusive Content" At the bottom right of the Exclusive Content menu select "Redeem Code" and enter the 19 digit code supplied with the DLC, if all goes well you should have 4 more Deniable Ops to play, Hope this helps out anyone who has failed the attempt to play the DLC, I don't want to spoil anything so the rest is up to you! Happy Gaming! by Adjy, Canada - Sep 30th 2012

– Empire Total War: GoldGreat game with fluid gameplay and only 1 crash so far after hours and hours of gameplay. The world domination map is much more advanced than in previous titles with many different options such as diplomatic relations and keeping your people happy in order to grow and prosper through the ages. The navy battles are often times repetitive as the AI seems to always use the same tactics over and over to start the battle but, the depth and scale as well as strategic options of the land and siege battles makes the game 5 star. Theres not many other games for the mac that let you control thousands of units at a time and watching a massive battle erupt, these battles are what give the game great replay value and worth buying without a doubt but make sure your system requirements exceed the minimum by a little bit in order to receive the highest quality experience with the game. I completely recommend this to any Real Time or Turn Based strategy series fan looking for a great title on the mac by WantonWarrior908, - Sep 30th 2012

– Okay if you like that sort of thingIf you're into HO games, this is fine. But if you're interested in the actual "investigation" part, it's pretty lame. Not sure who this is designed for. A bit graphic in terms of content for kids, but then the actual puzzles and game play is far too easy for this to be intended for adults. Suggest mum and dad check the demo to see if it's appropriate enough. by Zelmia, USA - Sep 29th 2012

– PDA ProblemsMy only problem with this game is that the PDA and other such important ites in the game do not work! PLease fix!!! by Boliobee, New Zealand - Sep 29th 2012

– Does Not work on my MacBook Pro RetinaThe game pieces are missing or distorted in the game. It's not fun to play if you can't see the game pieces. by Terry1953, - Sep 29th 2012

– Great but minor bugs!First, this game is great and runs smooth on a MBP 13" Early 2011 i5 with 8 GB RAM, but there are still some texture loading glitches with blue and purple elements popping up in the landscapes, but they're not disturbing as they disappear quickly. Then again, sprinting with an Xbox 360 Controller is more about luck than actual control. The character goes backwards when clicking the left stick. Nevertheless, fluent gameplay, great graphics, and localized (German!). Definite recommendation! by Saphired, Germany - Sep 29th 2012
