For some reason I thought this game was a 3-d immersive game...not a series of snapshots. If you want a set of photos of Capri, buy this. If you're looking for an adventure...look elsewhere.
Really Capri!

I enjoyed this game and played it twice. I just got back from a vacation in Italy. On our tour we spent a day in Capri and Anacapri. I felt that I actually had been there because the streets were the same, the names of the streets and the hotels and buildings. I knew where I was going because of this game. I even went to the newsstand and the lady was working there that had appeared in the game. I guess they actually used the people on the island to make this game. I even took her picture. This is a very relaxing game and the first one I had played with actual scenery and streets that you could walk anywhere. I loved the game.
A Lousy horrible game that.........SUCKSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!

I never write any reviews online. Thought I have to do so to save other people from buying this horrible game......basically the game is 2D and not 3D.....just a slide show of low resolution photograhs of island Capri....any rookie can take better pics than those......there is no story and consequently there is no game...icons need to be more professionally displayed as they needed an adult to draw them......you might see on the game pack "THEY ARE FOLLOWING YOU...." I have no idea who the heck are those following me.....game is so lame and bland and it stops when you stop clicking the mouse without any idea why you do so...........the map they give you needs another map to figure out what's in there.......you just see pics of people with some recorded messages that only reminds me of the TOEFL test..........in summary....please DO NOT BUY THIS GAMe and if you did.........throw it away!
A nice try but nonetheless, pathetically boring.

This game was independently produced by two gentlemen. Not to say this game is absolutely horrible but believe me, its close to it. The story is vague, the photos are average, the music is ok, the interface is horrible, and the gameplay is confusing and boring... To think that anyone could even begin to compare this to Myst is a laughing joke. I urge you not to spend your money on a waste of a game like this. If you're into these kind of adventure games, take a look at what the adventure company is currently making or other well-known publishers. Don't be mislead by the other reviews here that describe this game as something its not. Trust me, you will not have fun playing this game. Adventure games are my favorite genre and I must say, this ranks pretty low on my list. If you still have doubts about what I have just written, check IGN or Gamespot for their reviews. As you will see, the game gets something like 4.0 out of 10. If you're into essentially just clicking randomly in what seems that a powerpoint slideshow, then go for it, otherwise don't buy this pathetic excuse for a game
A most horrible game

This game is pieced together from digital photos taken on the island of Capri. The island is a beautiful place and perhaps it is worth the price simply to wander its roads and trails in this photo format. However, after you have walked everywhere and picked up all the obvious 'clues' you honestly do not have a clue what you are suppose to be doing! I must admit that I did not solve anything that I would consider a puzzle before I quit playing out of boredom.

Very nice game! For true adventure gamers. As you go through, you will enjoy the beautiful landscapes and the music.
Do not expect astounding 3D graphics, but a real place and an intriguing storyline.
Highly recommended.
Nope, no good at all.

The whole game (which truly is a series of photographs) depends on your being able to read the map. And it is illegible. I really tried, having read all these glowing reviews.
Boring

I bought this game because of the glowing reviews that Just Adventure.com and Quandaryland.com gave this game.I am so disappointed.Boring point and click through stacks of photographs of Capri.Challenging gameplay and wonderful music?
i think not.
It is really this bad.

Okay, I never do this, but I had to because this game is just that bad. The ONLY reason I gave it two stars is because at least the pictures are good, graphically. But that's it. I didn't even continue to play this game because it was just too awful. It's great if you don't like 3-D game play, but for those of us who like true adventure games, like Myst, Syberia and the like, are just going to be bored senseless. Anyway, if you want a "true" adventure game, I don't think this is what you are looking for.
HORRIBLE!!!

I usually agree with most reviews posted here. So when I saw all the positive reviews I thought I would give this game a shot. BIG MISTAKE...it has got to be the most horrible game ever made!!! Sure the scenery was pretty...if that is all I cared about Id buy some postcards. All you do is randomly click in this idiotic interface, it's not in English..and its just plain boring and horrible. I think I tried to play it for an hour and can't make myself turn it on again. I can't even sell it because I would be embarassed to take money for it. THis game is the only game I ever bought that went straight from the computer to the trash!!!
