   I loved this game when I bought it last year. Definitely a must have if you're into hidden objects games:

   I've only played it for a short while so far but this is a charmingly different variation of the hidden object genre.

    Hi dsekirka,
    Try cleaning out your internet cache. If you're running IE just right click on the IE icon and select internet properties. Depending upon how you have it set up you can clear everything with one mouse click or several. Look for browsing history, where you can delete temporary files, cookies etc. If you're running firefox I can't remember so just Google 'cleaning out your cache in firefox'

    I hope this helps.

    In FireFox it's Tools/Clear Private Data (that's one way).

    Hi Axcut, it will probably be repeated in a few weeks. They seem to have a rollover ever few weeks with a few new additions. I'dcertainly check back frequently. :)

    Jeez guys, with respect, I know a lot of people like these hidden objects games, but I find once you've played one, you've played them all (I have d/ld and played a few of them). Why so many?
    What about the rest of us, eh? :)

    Hi ringo, I thought that initially; however, if you are willing to search you will find some fantastic gems amongst the chaff.

    It's an unfortunate consequence of someone releasing a game that becomes a blockbuster. Everyone jumps on the band wagon and releases so many clones it gets boring after a while, but as I impl above, there's always a few developers who can extend the concept and include imaginative ideas that keep the genre alive. The same goes for every genre available. If we all felt the way you seem to do, the gaming industry would soon dry up and disappear as there are only so many genres available.

    I've just bought Saints Row 2, which is remarkbly like Grand Theft Auto 4, but that doesn't stop me from really enjoying the game. :) The same goes for the forty or so FPS games I own, or the other three 3D GTA titles, or the hundreds of custom made maps I have for Battlefield 2 or Unreal tournamet 3, 2004 and 2003, etc etc etc.

    Regards

    I am still having the error problem downloading the free games. I can download the game, but the error always comes up at the Gamehouse game installer. I still haven't had a response from GameHouse yet. I hope I can get this solved soon.

    Ringo, it would seem that way, but actually most have something different about them that makes them...well, different from one another. It's the same way with the match-3's. They are all match-3's, but there are different formats, i.e., Bejeweled, Zuma, Luxor, Atlantis Quest, and so on. They are all match-3's, but their formats and game play styles are different.

    I got mine!!, I check here andgamehouse every morning before I do anything else.

    dsekirka, remove whatever you have on your computer, and try to d/l it again, only this time hold donw your control key when you hit the d/l button and see if that helps.

    I solved my problem yesterday. It was in C:\program files\realarcade\installer\uninstall.
    There were two files I removed in uninstall and now I can download from Gamehouse. Thanks for all of the suggestions.
