Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Disappointment
Could only play one of the games, everything else was a nightmare, so I give up, a waste of money.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Don't waste your money
What a great disappointment! I was not able to play Dead Reefs at all. System requirements state you only need a 64 MB DirectX9 compliant video card, when you actually need nVideo Ge-Force or ATI Radeon to play Dead Reefs. I was also unable to play Keepsake after just getting in the game because it froze. I followed the suggestion from The Adventure Co. to change from Windows XP to Windows 98, but it still would not play. NiBiRu would have been okay but for the the main character, who is a mean, ...

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Game by game
It's easier to review the games one by one. I have not played Dead Reefs because the reviews say it's buggier than an entymologist's den. Disregard the ratings above because I would rate each game so differently. Also, I would buy it again, if only for two of the games.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - LOVE IT!
When I have the extra time and need to relax but am not in the mood for a book, this is what I do. Adventure Company put some great games on this collection. I really hope they come out with a Volume 2 soon. The music is beautiful, the games are entertaining, It's a great way to take a break from work and everything else. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for fun mystery/puzzle-type computer games.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Lotsa game for a good price.
These are 5 decent adventure games at a good price. I would suggest the potential purchaser read the reviews of the individual games to get reviews for each since they have all been sold individually. All are third person adventure or fantasy games except for Return To Mysterious Island which is first person.
Of the 5, Dead Reefs was the most troublesome to install and operate. The keyboard operability was clumsy and took getting use to. More significantly the game mysteriously locks up my ... Read More
