The HO's where very clear and with 3 different kinds of hints, I never got "stuck". Austin, the butler was fun. When you need a break from the game, you can just leave it on the garden scene and watch Austin. He really enjoys everything new you buy for the garden (such as the putting green and the swing, feeding the birds, etc). I didnt think it was any shorter than any other HO game, if fact, I have played some that where shorter. I did miss Austin once the game was over so I started over and created a different garden. best wishes Waiting for the sequel I found this game to be one of the best hidden object games ever.

The graphics are very good, the objects are fun to find and the garden is fun to create. The fact that you can change anything you buy is also very good. I completed the garden and wondered what would happen next. The butler gave the impression that you would have a further list of items to find but after collecting a large sum of money still nothing else materialised. None of the websites I have look at (apart from this one) give any indication that the game ends as soon as the garden is complete. I have now spent several wasted hours in the belief that the game would go to another level, only to be disappointed and very cross that I paid £14.99 for a game that took no long at all to complete. This to my mind is a total rip off. This is the first time I have bought a game to play on my laptop and will most definitely be the last. Regards A not very happy player.
