Summary: Hardwood Hearts
Review: Hardwood Hearts is truly amazing. Joe Andrews was definitely right when he said this game has "drop-dead gorgeous graphics!" And to be able to foom a snowball at someone living in the outback of Australia who plays a bad card is just simply amazing.

Summary: What a ripoff / deceptive purchase of software
Review: I thought when I had paid for this I was getting a online game. Shortly after buying it I was informed that what you pay for is a offline version which gives you no right to anything related online . They say that they provide out of the goodness of their hearts an online server. Therefore if there are any problems online the company does not have a responsibility to you. Thus they can restrict access and make you pay a fine to get back in. SO BEWARE!!!

The strong points are the graphics, sound and different versions of games. It is a fairy tale type theme and is fairly easy to use. Unfortunately the good points are lost in the bad.

Bad points...The fact that online you are not considered or treated as a paying customer. Site integrity or the lack of it. Cheating and table talk is a common problem. Next to no customer support or help. Relations with online staff and players is tense at best. (people arent happy to find out they didnt pay to play there online)The lack of players makes it hard to find a game.

Right now I would for sure be cautious if your thinking about shelling out 25.00 for this mess. Read the forums and you will find out the downside fairly quickly. The graphics and layouts are nice which is really to bad because this could become a nice site.
