This game is all about the scenery. The photos are beautiful but all you seem to do is walk, walk, walk. I should have known that I was doomed to disappointment when I saw the simplistic graphics on the opening screen. If you want to take a tour and learn all about Capri then by all means, buy the software. If you want an adventure game look elsewhere.

WORST GAME EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was drawn to this game by one thing, and it turned out to be FAR from the truth, in my opinion. The Box says "think Myst but in a real location" not only does it not even compare to Myst in any way, but I found it boring, tedious, and pointless, and after 2 days of wandering aimlessly through it and having no fun at all, I uninstalled it.

This is the worst game I have come across in a long time. it is hard to understand the accent and there is no way of knowing what you have to do except to talk to people with these accents. If you buy it you will not even try to play it to it's fullest as it is a dud. stay away from it

Don't waste your money like I did

If it weren't for Conspiracies, this game might be the worst game ever made. They're both pretty lousy.

Horrible!

To put together this game, the developers took a lot of digital photos of Capri. A lot of them. And it took a lot of their time and effort, and so they want to make sure you see them. Every last one. Over and over and over again. The interface is primitive, and in very many scenes, there is just one direction you can go. To get from one point to another takes enough clicking to give you carpal tunnel, and has the net effect of paging through a tourist brochure for Capri -- for hours. Thankfully, after a period of game play, you are provided with several jump points to shorten your journeys.

The developers were very proud of their music, which is bland. They include an extra CD of the music for their game. There is a button you can press to turn off the music . . . but the music will start back up simultaneously.

The game is non-linear, but much of it involves running to and fro. Many puzzles are simply carrying objects from point A to point B. The entire thing is so tedious that after a few days of play, I uninstalled it.

Utterly Terrible, Terribly Awful, Do Not Buy!!

Again, an interesting concept that just doesn't work well. This game is like looking at someone's lousy and boring photo collection of their trip to Capri. I sold this game back to a store for a fraction of what I paid for it. It really sucks. Another case of intriguing packaging hiding a very lame product. Oh well...live and learn!

Pretty Pictures but...

If your looking for a point and click game with pretty pictures, this game would be for you. I was drawn to this game because the reviewers compared it to myst. Myst is so much better, a real game while this is like a slideshow with a few puzzles.

It's different but not for the better

I purchased this game based upon everyone's review that praised it to be "a breath of fresh air" and "educational" and so forth. Well, I played the game all the way through and I must say it's different but not for the better. The game's graphic is strictly based upon nothing else but a collection of SNAP SHOTS of the island of Capri. These snap shots are beautiful, but not enchanting enough to base an entire game upon. This game may have worked if the game would have been developed with a 3D-panoramic view instead of the snap shots. In addition, with better maps to eliminate the annoyance of being lost and confused when wondering around.

By the way I am so sorry, "A gamer" for not listening to you. I have to agree with your review in saying that there is no reason for anyone to buy this game.
