The game's story is generally considered weak and typical of the hidden object genre, often revolving around a "save the world" plot with incoherent dialogue and a lack of voice acting. While some players appreciated the fantasy elements and found the plot somewhat engaging, many criticized it for being poorly executed, with rambling dialogue and a lack of depth in character backstories. Overall, the narrative is seen as a mixed bag, with some enjoyable aspects overshadowed by its shortcomings.
- “The story has a certain steampunk/pirates flavor, but otherwise it’s the usual 'save the world' stuff.”
- “Ironically, the plot itself is good: we play as a female pirate captain who embarks on a quest of stopping ancient evil, which serves as a good excuse to visit a plethora of interesting and beautiful locations.”
- “I was pleasantly surprised to find it had a little more story than a typical hidden object game, and the clicking furiously to find everything was kept to a minimum.”
- “A sub-par hidden object game with an incoherent and half-baked story, no voice acting, and the odd bug or two.”
- “The story cannot keep any focus as we wander from place to place, while reading dialogues that were likely cringe-inducing even in their native language, let alone this butchering of the English language in the translation.”
- “The story is basic now, but when the small voodoo dolls show up, the story changed completely.”

The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with many praising the nice artwork and colorful scenes, while others find them outdated or mediocre compared to similar titles. Some players appreciate the clarity of hidden object scenes, but note issues like flat visuals and resolution glitches that detract from the overall experience. Overall, the graphics are considered a strong point by some, but not universally acclaimed.
- “The best side of the game is the graphics.”
- “The music, graphics, and gameplay were all well above average, putting this at the same quality level as some of the best Artifex Mundi titles.”
- “Graphics is definitely a plus; I really liked the sceneries and how they were themed.”
- “The graphics in general seem somewhat flat and not as beautifully drawn as is usually the case with this type of game, and the cursor doesn't always change shape for clickable areas or changes in unusual ways, making it sometimes hard to tell what exactly needs to be done.”
- “Unfortunately, the graphics are rather mediocre, and there is a weird resolution glitch: the scenes are all too big for the screen, so you have to scroll up and down with a mouse click.”
- “Graphics are 2D, fairly common, and not ugly, but not beautiful either.”

Overall, the music is considered a weak point, overshadowing the game's otherwise appealing graphics and story.
- “The art is nice, the music is mostly non-intrusive, and the dolls are really cute.”
- “The music, graphics, and gameplay were all well above average, putting this at the same quality level as some of the best Artifex Mundi titles.”

- “Also, it's not voiced (if you care about that sort of thing) and the music choice is... odd to say the least.”
- “Boring music that is very repetitive.”
- “The music doesn't match the genre of the storyline.”

The gameplay is generally described as straightforward and easy to navigate, typical of hidden object games, with some entertaining mechanics involving magical powers. While the design shows promise with challenging puzzles and interesting locations, the overall experience is marred by a lackluster story and some frustrating elements. Despite its shortcomings, the game features above-average graphics and music, making it comparable to higher-quality titles in the genre.
- “The initial added mechanics having the dolls hold magical powers that help you along the quests seem entertaining and amusing.”
- “Leaning as hard as possible to the absurdity works surprisingly well for what is mechanically a straightforward hidden object game.”
- “The gameplay also shows several signs of great design, especially with the difficulty of the point-and-click segments and in the puzzle variety.”
- “Lame story and lazy gameplay, nope.”
- “It cost me a lot of time to find this mechanic out.”
- “There is nothing hidden up or down, so this annoying 'feature' provides no gameplay value.”
stability

The game's stability is mixed, with some players experiencing minor bugs and glitches, while others report significant issues such as game crashes, broken achievements, and unsolvable puzzles. Despite these problems, performance is generally smooth, running well even on low-end hardware. Overall, the bugginess can detract from the experience, leading some to recommend skipping the game if stability is a concern.
- “Performance-wise, it runs great on a toaster, achieving 60+ fps, like butter, with no crashes, hitches, or significant load on the CPU or GPU.”
- “Some achievements are broken, some puzzles are bugged, the game crashes/freezes at some places. That ray puzzle often isn't solvable on harder difficulties as it sometimes generates impossible combinations. You can't replay on the same profile to get missing achievements as it still counts your hints/skips from the last playthrough. You will inevitably encounter something that forces you to stop playing at some point.”
- “If you don't like the idea of paying for a potentially buggy game, then I'd say it's safe to skip this one; you aren't going to miss anything.”
- “The bugginess of the game really affects my playthrough, and in my opinion, this company's games (I've played quite a few) are very buggy and definitely not worth the money for their playable value.”
