The game itself is awesome! Interesting storyline, fun puzzles that can be tricky but not overly difficult, and absolutely gorgeous graphics! The transformation when a room is de-cursed is incredible. The game has a little bit of everything in it. Hidden objects, collecting pieces to various puzzles, unlocking locks, visual puzzles where you rearrange the pieces to form a picture, playing simple music to unlock a hidden item, etc. If you get stuck, you can ask your cute little fairy friend for a hint. Up until the end of the game, you can play at your leisure (no timers). You do have to hurry at the end of the game, though, but it's not impossibly hard. My only "complaint" is that the game is short. It took me about 3 hours to beat it. Granted, I did play non-stop. It was THAT fun and interesting! :-) More, please!

But, I'm a little ticked about being misled by Amazon's "Product Features." Under there, Amazon lists that this games has 135 scenes...it's really more like 35, obviously someone got the facts wrong. Something like that wouldn't normally bother me, except that it was part of the reason I purchased the game after the 30 minute free trial. Like a genuine idiot, I didn't read the customer reviews where other people have complained about how short the game is, I just saw 135 scenes and thought: "well that ought to keep me entertained for awhile." I was then completely flabbergasted when I beat the game an hour and a half later.

That being said, the game itself is entertaining enough. The scenery and graphics make it a very pleasant playing experience. My main quibbles are that 1. As already mentioned it is incredibly short and 2. There is really no replay value. I replayed the game a few times and have noted that nothing changes, and I mean NOTHING. You would think with all the different objects that they could at least alter slightly what you have to find each time. I mean, I know that some objects are necessary for the other puzzles, but not all of them serve that purpose.

I would honestly have to say that if I had realized how quickly I would have beaten the game and been aware of the lack of replay value, I definitely would not have bought this. And I have a hard time believing it is the top downloaded game on Amazon, I mean it's okay, but it's not like it's the greatest game ever.

"Princess Isabella" is a stunning hidden objects-adventure game, a great way to escape to fantasy land. You, as the princess herself, have to undo a witch's curse. The witch has turned the residents of your palace into shattered mirrors and you have to find all the broken shards and reassemble them to set your people free, as well as ridding each room in the palace of a curse

The palace rooms are dark and sinister until you work your magic and free the demons, and you'll see each area suddenly burst into glorious color when you succeed. If you ever felt like smashing a vase like Scarlett O'Hara, you'll have ample opportunities to shatter various urns with a rock to reveal a vital object needed to solve a puzzle. You'll have other abilities, too, such as the wind and fire abilities, which allow you to do other fun stuff.

The game is not linear and you can proceed leisurely from one room to another in the enormous palace until the very end when you're pitted against the wicked witch in a timed hidden object contest. You have to beat her, or back to the beginning you go. The game is composed of a wide variety of puzzles but perhaps the gorgeous artwork is what grabs you most. My only complaint is that the chirpy twitterings of the companion fairy are very annoying but it's a minor irritation. This game is classy.
