Gardenscapes (Premium) App Reviews

Its a light game but very entertaining! Cute graphics as well =)

finished the game, i think, there does not seem the be any new things to buy.

This game is nothing new. Just a simple game of hidden objects that you have to discover. It is well done and the light story is nice. Great game when you want to spare 5 or 10 minutes!

MAJOR PROBLEM!! The program worked for a week, then this error happened: Parent Process: launchd [87] Date/Time: 2012-02-17 16:06:35.882 -0800 OS Version: Mac OS X 10.6.8 (10K549) Report Version: 6 Interval Since Last Report: 64676 sec Crashes Since Last Report: 5 Per-App Crashes Since Last Report: 4 Anonymous UUID: 9E03C5CF-D8CC-4238-94AB-0E5A4C70F23C Exception Type: EXC_BREAKPOINT (SIGTRAP) Exception Codes: 0x0000000000000002, 0x0000000000000000 Crashed Thread: 0 Dyld Error Message: Library not loaded: /System/Library/Frameworks/StoreKit.framework/Versions/A/StoreKit Referenced from: /Applications/Gardenscapes.app/Contents/MacOS/Gardenscapes Reason: image not found Binary Images: 0x8fe00000 - 0x8fe4163b dyld 132.1 (???) <4CDE4F04-0DD6-224E-ACE5-3C06E169A801> /usr/lib/dyld Model: MacBook7,1, BootROM MB71.0039.B0B, 2 processors, Intel Core 2 Duo, 2.4 GHz, 2 GB, SMC 1.60f5 Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 320M, NVIDIA GeForce 320M, PCI, 256 MB Memory Module: global_name AirPort: spairport_wireless_card_type_airport_extreme (0x14E4, 0x93), Broadcom BCM43xx 1.0 (5.10.131.42.4) Bluetooth: Version 2.4.5f3, 2 service, 19 devices, 1 incoming serial ports Network Service: AirPort, AirPort, en1 Serial ATA Device: Hitachi HTS545025B9SA02, 232.89 GB Serial ATA Device: MATSHITADVD-R UJ-898, 776.5 MB USB Device: Built-in iSight, 0x05ac (Apple Inc.), 0x8507, 0x24600000 / 2 USB Device: BRCM2070 Hub, 0x0a5c (Broadcom Corp.), 0x4500, 0x06600000 / 3 USB Device: Bluetooth USB Host Controller, 0x05ac (Apple Inc.), 0x8218, 0x06630000 / 4 USB Device: Apple Internal Keyboard / Trackpad, 0x05ac (Apple Inc.), 0x0236, 0x06300000 / 2 USB Device: Microsoft® 2.4GHz Transceiver v8.0, 0x045e (Microsoft Corporation), 0x0745, 0x04100000 / 2

I realy liked this game.However now I cant play it will not down load. There is a note to download. I am not able to do this because it says it is installed. I feel I have wasted my money.

If you are looking for a way to relax and wind down, this game is just for you. You can choose to play either on "relaxed mode" or "timed mode". Ive only ever played it on the "relaxed" setting. The music is relaxing and the atmosphere of the garden is nice. You have to earn money to buy items for the garden and to do that, you have "jumble" sales where you sell items that are in the rooms of the house. These sales are games where you search for specific items in rooms full of stuff. Its fun at first but I found that as the game went on, it got to be too much of the same. Once in a while they mix things up a bit by having you carry out a special mission to find something for a certain person in the neighborhood, but mostly, its always just the same thing. As you buy items for your garden, they get more and more expensive and so you end up having more and more of these jumble sales. It gets to be tedious after a while. I think they could have thrown a bit more excitement into the game as it goes along: mix things up a bit somehow. I also think that it would be nice to have more options for things to choose from when buying things for your garden. You only ever have three options: 3 fences, 3 benches, 3 statues, etc. Maybe there could be a way to unlock more options or something. That would make the game a bit more exciting. All in all, I enjoyed this and I would recommend it.

This review is for the Gardenscapes Premium. A very relaxing game if you play the "relaxed mode". The graphics are awesome and very colourful and the music is relaxing. The butler and the dog is amusing…..very interactive! But after awhile the game gets boring after youve purchased all the garden must-haves. Sometimes the butler will mention that "hes making a list to buy more supplies" but nothing happens even after you have around $35,00. I would give the game 5 stars if it could be more challenging after purchasing the items. All in all an addicting game!

This game is a relaxing hidden object game. If youre looking for confusing mysteries, intense action, and complicated puzzles, you wont find it here. This is strictly a hidden object game. You go through the rooms of the house and sell stuff for money to buy things to make the garden nicer so you can win a garden contest. Its fun! Ive been playing it for a few days now and I start playing and the next thing I know a couple of hours have gone by. Its kind of addicting.

Nice mix of hidden objects and design - its incredible how you really get into designing (and changing) that garden! I only wish there were more rooms to explore. A lot of fun!

I love this game

Though there are few elements of the game that one might grow weary of or consider tedious, like the story line and cut scenes, the actual game portion of the game is pretty fun. I don’t overly care for the decoratiing your garden aspect, for those in need of it it does provide purpose/incentive to collect coins in the game. Can be a bit mind numbing if played for too long a period of time all at once, but still completely engaging.

Loved the game in the ds version and love it on the Imac (more interaction, hidden things randomly placed, better design selection for the garden among other things).

The Game engages in your quick thinking skills. or it will develop them for you just be patient..

So much fun and just my style, I really appreciate the Relaxed Mode choice!! This is my favorite way to play and this is a blast!! Thanks!! Make MORE please!!

If you like the books "I Spy" youll enjoy this game. Youre spending your time looking for items to sell to benefit your garden. Great graffics, and I love that it includes music throughout the whole game. There are a few downfalls, it gets tiresome and boring to look for objects, and it kind of froze my compter when I quit the app. If they would fix the freezing part the game would be perfect! But overall, its a good game. Ive spent hours playing it to build my garden, although I wish it had more options to design my garden. Hopefully there will be upgrades to expand this entertaining game.

I really like playing this game but have to stop quite often to allow my new macbook pro 13 inch laptop to cool down -- the bottom of the machine gets so hot that it makes me nervous it may ruin something. I hope that the designers of this game can fix this problem.

dont buy until playrix updates it heats up the bottom of my laptop and when its really hot if you press the volume button it frezes the game and you have to restart your computer and let it cool down then get back into the game

portal series is way better. the graphic is ok. animation is cute. but the back ground doesnt change.... well, they do have like 14? back grounds, but when you have to repeat the same place looking for the exact same stuffs just put differently with different things, it is just sooooooooo boring... finding items is way easy and it forces hints if you hesitate for some moment. i recommend you to try others thing unless you are elementary kid, or planning on playing this bit by bit for days... so you wouldnt be bored by repetition...

Its a fun game but once you play it a couple of times it gets old. Great for memory,young and old. Big,big problem with the heat on my laptop. Yes, I use a cooling board. No, I never had this problem before. I guess you lost a customer with this company unless you fix the problem. too, bad.

This game is great. My daughter and I play it often and enjoy it very much. I think this is worth the money and the time spent having fun decorating a garden. Great graphics.
