Quite a good puzzle game, I played it on my iPhone over and over again like at least ten years ago. as the years passed I forgot the name of this game, only I remember the delicate artistic design and some fragile image. To my surprise I found this game on Steam as well and quickly bought one without hesitation, it feels good to be able to relive the memories of the past.

Clockwork Tales: Of Glass and Ink is an above average Hidden Object Mystery with a steampunk flair. The creations are nicely designed and the collectible objects tour guide is presented as a treatise on where to find mechanical insects. There's some rough puzzle logic involved in places, but the game is neat overall.

A cute simple little puzzle game---Great for beginners. Graphics are comic book style and you basically 'click' from scene to scene. Some puzzles are harder than others, but they are all great for that beginner puzzler. A couple of the puzzles were too dark to see OR the instructions left you clueless, BUT the developers give you the option to just 'SKIP' those you don't like. There is Also a 'help' feature (after it charges up), that can give you that 'nudge' if you get completely stuck but don't want to skip a puzzle. The music is calm and relaxing and adds to the enjoyment. I think that if you can pick it up for 4 or 5 bucks, I'd give it a try (Great to pass the 5 to 7 hours it takes to solve).

Fun, hidden object game typical of AM. Worth the price, about 4 hours more or less.

Nice HO game with fun for 3-4 hours. It has still pleasant graphics, an at least decent story and setting and a good progression speed. It is also not stretching its gameplay time unnecessarily.
