Can't play it on Wndows Vista
Have been completely unsuccessful at playing this, so far, on my Windows Vista computer. Attempts to contact the makers of the game, Dreamcatcher, have been unsuccessful as well. Windows compatibility function does not work. I get a "projector skeleton" error. I really wanted a challenging puzzle game to play, but this was a waste of money as it seems my computer is "too new" to play it on.It was not clearly listed by the seller that this requires a dinosaur computer to play it on.

fun and challenging
My wife and I both really enjoyed this game. The puzzles are challenging but not so difficult that they become frustrating. The graphics are good, but moving around took some getting used to. You can't move the mouse too quickly or you will get seasick as the screen swirls and sways. We are hoping for a sequel....

Addictive!
Admittedly I don't have a lot of experience, but of the dozen or so puzzle games my wife and I have played, this is easily the best. Excellent variety and difficulty, and I have to admit we did have to consult the walk through at one point. If the hidden object games are getting a bit stale, this will add a little "Puzzle Stimulus" to your life!

Safecracker the Ultimate Puzzle Adventure
I love puzzles and thought this sounded like a fun challenge. It was really too difficult for me. The clues too vague to really give me insight as to where I was to go next. I found myself spending more time on web pages with cheats then in the game itself so I never finished it.

Good Game
This is a good game if you're into puzzles. It's tough so put on your thinking cap. Run through a mansion cracking some eccentric's safes.

Not quite what I expected but lots of challenging fun
This game was bought as a gift for me since I absolutely love adventure games. I expected more search and find type of gameplay but this game is mostly figuring out how to unlock this billionaire's dozens of safes. Challenging and fun, I thoroughly enjoyed the gameplay after I got used to the way it is played. I very much enjoyed how you can choose the ending. Very unique. I went through and played every ending just to see what would happen. Some of the safes have to be unlocked in order, ie: unlock one safe will give you a clue to unlock another one. yet there are some that are just common sense and quick wittedness. Don't give up! They are not as difficult as they look.
