Overall, this is a pleasant and mostly simple game that is nevertheless entertaining and clever. The hunt-and-find part does get repetitive, as it is wont to do, but the mini-games and the storyline keep things interesting. Just Adventure had fun playing this game, and would like to see what else MumboJumbo games can come up with, including any further adventures of this beloved heroine.

While many games (even casual ones) look to challenge players sometimes to the point of frustration, it's nice that MumboJumbo's Samantha Swift and the Hidden Roses of Athena gives players a relaxed yet challenging experience.
I might just be really cynical but I can't imagine paying full price for a hidden picture title. That seems like the sort of thing relegated to the downloadable stage.
