I am surprised at the lack of any reviews, both on the Game's webpage. and in the forum! Guess it's up to me to get the ball rolling! This review is of the TRIAL. I played 35mins of it so far, and knew it was a buy. There is literally NO other game, on BFG, like this one! Seems to be an old release, but plays and looks like a modern new game. Developer's, were way ahead of thier time when they made this! First, most important in a game for me... YES, there is a timer. WAIT! Don't run away yet!! (later there is an untimed play mode# I HATE timers, having severe painful hand and eye problems.. they kill a game for me, cause me pain, and stress me out. However, there is always the VERY rare exception. This game is one of them. It didn't bother me, plus, there are plenty of time increases and other power-ups. After a few levels, I didn't even know it was there and relaxed. You can also turn off time sounds!! YAY! So this wasn't a game killing one. I'd love a re-release without, but I can play it with!

Better than most I've seen in fact! In 20 minutes, I was getting the hang of it and actually smiling. I prefer darker games, but love to come across one, where the writers add wit and humor! The story is well told so far..You play a young woman, stuck on an island. It's not deserted as there seems to be other homes, your castle, shared with your sweet Mom and a market to pick up your moms requests.. this is the storyline not the game play mind you. The young Lady #Our heroine), is bored and seeking something besides picking up produce and praticing her sword skills. Meanwhile, in the games opening..we see a rather sinister battle for a Treasure m
