Only 2 of the separate games, contained within "temples," are at all similar, in my opinion. My sole complaint is that it's so very difficult to skip a puzzle; I'm stuck on a logic puzzle I can't escape, but, luckily, I can go to the other temples instead. <br /> <br />I'd have to classify this game as a M3 (match 3), but it's really more fun than that. Except for the logic puzzles, they're hard enough to give me a run without being frustrating. <br /> <br />The game is suitable for the hearing impaired; in fact, I found it necessary to mute it because I found it too jarring when the game didn't approve of a move I made and shouted at me. It would probably work for a sizable degree of vision loss as well because the pieces are relatively large. The smallest bits are little locks, etc. used in higher levels, which could be a problem.

Company was nice to deal with and sent her new CD/DVD. That didn't work sent her another and tech support attempted to help her again, but admitted there was a problem installing. Refunded full price+shipping & she now has 3 copies of game. She said company was nice to deal with and is waiting for them to fix the problem with instalation. Rating: 4 / 5 Bought this for mom.
