Summary: Brrr, too many freeze ups.
Comment: I've tried this on two computers, (the second one I just built for flight sim with a 4870 graphics card, Intel 9550 processor, and 4 GB of RAM) and the game freezes on a regular basis. I get 15 to 20 minutes of run time before it just locks up. The sound continues and I can move the cursor, but can't click on anything and the keyboard doesn't work. I have to turn the power off and reboot. I can't help but think it may just be my copy as no one else seems to mention it.
I like the game it self. If you like puzzles, it's an enjoyable mental doodle with very good graphics. If anyone else is having problems with it freezing, please post something in the Comments of my review. I'd like to know, thanks.

Summary: You will have to drag your kids away....
Comment: I bought this game for my two boys (ages 6 and 8), and they love it! We do run it on a new computer using VISTA, it does not work on our laptop. I would recommed this for anyone who finds gadgets, electical wires, explosives and all things that you would rather not have young children playing with, exciting!! Very creative, and they may even learn a thing or two.

Summary: What an amazing game
Comment: I was initially nervous when I read the negative reviews about the installation of this game but I decided to buy it anyways because it sounded like a nice brain teaser game. I bought my computer over a year ago and I have a NVIDIA GE force 8400m gs display adapter and it worked without any issues at all. I have been playing for over an hour and it hasn't crashed. So I guess just check for system requirements before buying and if your computer is capable of handling the game you will have hours and hours of educational entertainment for youngsters and adults. Very good graphics and the Spy hints are great if you get stuck. I definitely recommend going through the tutorial before attempting to play and once you start playing don't hesitate to use the Spy hint option that gives you a peak at any objects that might be placed at that specific spot you chose to spy on.
In summary, if you like the concept of the game and your computer can handle it buy it. You won't regret it. I know I am glad I did and I can't wait to share it with the rest of my family.
Hope this helps
