I love hidden object games and can play for hours, hard to do when the kids keep getting in the way and asking for things but when I get the chance I like to lose myself in game.
I don't play the team player mode as I like to take my time and follow the story. I really like that I can move the scene around and zoom in if I'm stuck, most the time the objects are well hidden so it can take a bit of looking. Like all hidden object games I can use the hint function if I'm really stuck. Like that it has mini games so it is not just finding objects that they have tried to hide.
I haven't managed to finish the game yet but really enjoying the story. Graphics are good and when I'm seriously stuck I can google for a walk through and just refer to it when needed, most the time the answers are obvious when you take a few minutes to think about it.

Do you have a dice hoard that needs guarding? A dragon could be your greatest ally. Once sworn enemies, adventurers and dragons are forming a new alliance based on a mutual love of hoarding shiny things.
Dragon Bagons are made of super cuddly microfleece and stand about 8 to 8 and a half inches tall. Flip back their head to reveal the double drawstring dicebag belly that will hoard up to 100 standard dice.
