I'm going to try to add a link to the app store. Hope this works.

Lost Souls Enchanted Paintings HD

Update:

Just finished. It's a bit shorter than I expected for a standard $6.99 game. The CE is $9.99. I don't think so. Most BFG CE games are $6.99 with pretty long game play. Not sure if I'll buy another G5E game.
Do you have a rough idea of how long it took you to play? I've played several G5E games and usually find them to be sufficient in length.

I've played the PC version of this one and it was awesome. Definitely kept me away from my iOS gaming for two or three nights

You are soooo lucky to get new releases first. This title really captured my interest. I think my promise to myself to buy no more games until I have got through some of the backlog is about to be broken

That is unfortunate-I find G5e games of all genres to be great-stellar graphics, game play, and length. Hopefully they will be able to produce one in the future that works for you...

I remember this game being talked about here before, so if you haven't had a chance to try it, the premium version of Playrix's Gardenscapes HD is free today. Link is to iTunes.

This game is great. Most games I'm lucky if I get to play through once. I finished this one on both my PC and my iPad. I highly recommend it.

I didn't keep track of my play time. It just felt shorter than normal. I have enjoyed the other G5E games - Royal Trouble, Special inquiry and Treasure Seekers 3 - and they seemed to be enough game play.

It's not that I didn't like Lost Souls. I loved it. The graphics were amazing. I enjoyed it enough that I wanted it to go on a bit longer.

I'm really surprised we get the games here first. I don't understand but I'm glad.

I also saw another former Alawar now BFG (right now Canada only)

Vampire Saga Pandora's Box


I played this when it was an Alawar Release and quite liked it. Great storyline.

I believe all the reviews in the app store for that game were also complaining it was way too short.

Gald to know I am not the only one. I know I should wait a bit before buying to see what reviews are like but I just can't.

Now I'm trying to decide between Cursed Memories and Haunted Halls.
