Rated 5 out of 5 by 4aces4me from Politics - Wacky People - Huge City - Norman Lear would love this!!! One man was the producer of all this fun and it was his original idea, his game design and he was the artist. He even took care of the music and sound. Check out the credits. What a guy! If you need logic and organization in your games, it won’t work here. If you like challenges, something zany, long lasting entwining characters and just plain fun graphics, jump in with the rest of us and check out this amazing town. You will run all over the place finding stuff to help these townspeople. You could shorten your trekking if you can find the subway. You may want to take notes, but then again you might have a good memory. There is an excellent diary that keeps track of your tasks. I had over 120 tasks, a full stock of inventory that every bit was needed. Combining items was so easy, once I figured it out. Isn’t that always the case? I’ve got to get to the pharmacy for the librarian so I can pick up some books the doctor needs so he can finish his project. I am so busy, frustrated, delighted, hysterical and worn out with all these requests. I felt a real accomplishment when I finished this one. I’m off to do it again. This game will never age.

Rated 5 out of 5 by loopyerme from THIS IS WHAT ALL GAMEZ SHOULD BE...FUN FUN FUN I downloaded the demo and this is based on it. I have played so many BFG but very few reached this level of enjoyment. This is one of those games that you play after you've had "one of THOSE" days, with rude and mean people, all of them in a hurry for no reason. This is the best hidden object game ever. When the lips pop up, you talk to people. When the sneakers pop up, you can walk in different directions to find the things you need to play the game and reach your goals. This game is a MUST HAVE when you want to escape and have fun.

Rated 5 out of 5 by LWhite1203 from Such fun! I can't wait for the next game to come out! It takes good note taking to get through it...or it did for me! Super fun game full of puzzles and adventure!

Rated 5 out of 5 by islandrider from My most favorite BF game, ever! I've been a member of BFG since 2007. Overall, the games are great, but this one is terrific! It's fun, original, quirky, funny, silly, challenging and off-the-wall. So unlike anything else, it's a great way to get some laughs as you experience sometimes complicated exploits and collect needed objects that you must find and use to expose the mayor. PLEASE come out with some sequels!

Rated 5 out of 5 by pennmom36 from City Of Fools I have played hundreds of Hidden Object adventure games and in all honesty, there's no other game out there quite like this one! The cartoonish characters have their own unique, out of proportioned features and they all mumble their own language, don't worry, there is a dialog text to read in case you don't speak or understand City of Fools lingo. This is the first of currently 2, the second game is also just as entertaining, Who Am I? You play the role of a journalist on assignment to the foolish town of Tundel to interview the town Mayor who seems to be covering up an alleged landing of a UFO. The problem is that in order to track down the Mayor, you need to find or earn money to purchase a ticket to fly from the mainland to an island where the Mayor is located. In order to earn money you accept tasks from the citizens of Tundel who need random supplies or chores. You can go to several different locations in each scene, forward, backward, left and right, and there are several buildings in those locations to visit. You may go into an apartment building and the tenant has been given the wrong hemorrhoid cream, and now he looks transparent, he asks you to put the photograph that he tore into pieces, back together and you need to get the correct medication. The goal is to help as many citizens as possible so that they pay you money, there are a ton of citizens along the way with a ton of tasks but you don't need to complete every task unless you want to before leaving the mainland. The puzzles are all fairly simple such as putting together torn pieces of a photo or a shooting gallery game and the Hidden Object Scenes are usually just picking out needed items out of a junk pile. This is a different kind of game with very edgy humor, and many different tasks to keep you from getting bored, enjoy!

Rated 5 out of 5 by JadedBlonde from Yes, it's a strange game I didn't at all like this game when I first tried it, I sat going, "huh?" most of the trial. I had no idea what to do, seemed like a lot of running around aimlessly with no idea why. This game is one of my top 5 All Time Favorites; even my 80 year old father is hooked. This game is simple in design and you will pop a few brain cells trying to figure out what to do. Remember the old days of playing games and having to draw flowchart on paper and take your own notes on what you were doing? This is one of those. If you really like immersing yourself in a game, this is it. If you want to just click and "play" a game, it's not for you. You are in a crazy town full of characters, mostly foolish, who want items or items and in order for them to give you the info you want, you have to go find the items and bring them to the proper people. It's a BIG town, full of alleys, boarded up buildings, nasty cops and nice folks, too. Houses are numbered with no actual pattern. There is a map, which you will need! in order to get a directional hint on where to go just hold your cursor over the edge and arrows will show up, flashing the way. Somewhere in the forum someone has written a helpful list of who wants what and where to find it, if you want extra help but half the fun is figuring this out for yourself. There's a lot of little things to look at and notice, a great sense of humor to the whole game. This took me a week to play but it's one you can do a bit at a time. I keep sending Vulcan Brain Beams into the sky to the ONE guy who did this entire game to please make another. Give it a chance, learn how to play it, get the idea of what is wanted, use the map, get ready to laugh out loud. t's an odd one but it's fun to chip away at irritating people and know you're the smartest person in the whole place!

Rated 5 out of 5 by frenchsfarm from I love this game ! I am really enjoying this game. Not your basic adventure. There is a little hidden object, some mystery, some puzzle solving, funny people. You can either fumble through the roads and clues, or get out a notebook and do it methodically.
