Product Reviews of The Journey to Wild Divine Biofeedback Software Expansion Pack for PC & Mac: Wisdom Quest
Product Review: Much better than Journey
Summary: 5 Stars
I rated Journey to the Wild Divine a 5 despite its problems because it worked. However, it is almost juvenile compared to Wisdom Quest. The music in Journey was so bad at times that I actually turned off the sound. Wisdom Quest uses chant and easy instrumental. It's much more conducive to the meditative, peaceful results those of us who enjoy the games are after. The graphics have also improved. And, unlike Journey, if you're going through the game for the 2nd or 3rd time, and you don't want to wait on the graphics, you can left click on your mouse to skip through them. Wisdom Quest has more interactive activities. The "challenge" levels, which I put in quotes because it's a challenge to be more centered and meditative, increase as the game continues. The challenge also includes various types of meditative breathing, including what we used to call in yoga the "Breath of Fire", or the breathing to raise your energy, often immediately followed by the peaceful breath. What a wonderful teaching aid. And, Wisdom Quest has more helpful instruction on meditation. I have asked if there are plans to make a 3rd game. I was disappointed to find out there was not. I guarantee I will be the first in line to purchase another game if the creators change their mind. I only have two complaints. The first is actually a warning to the new user. There is a part near the beginning of Wild Divine that requires you to make an offering of a pear. If you don't pick up the pear when you first come across the bridge in the balloon ride, you'll be stuck in a loop forever. The second is the pixie girl. She's irritating. I tried to set the game so that she doesn't come up, but she's still there. To the creators, if you do decide to bless us with a 3rd game, please do away with the pixie girl. Product Review: Even better thanThe Passage
Summary: 5 Stars
I have had the Journey of the Wild Divine "The Passage" for a few months and found it to be a great meditation tool that I share with my 8 year old grand daughter. I find the "Wisdom Quest" is even better because you can change the mode from easy to hard. It comes with a training manual that gives you better insight into each activity. I look forward to finding time daily to explore "The Journey". The graphics and music will take you on a beautiful peaceful journey everytime you put on the "blue magic rings".Product Review: Takes you to the next level of training exercises
Summary: 5 Stars
Hi, I enjoyed "The Passage" very much and finished it in a single day on a weekend and started to feel some real challenges in being able to relax enough toward the end. "Wisdom Quest" is even better! However, as I had hoped it would be, the training exercises are much more challenging even on the very easy level compared to "The Passage". So, in addition, I am training with the "emWave" by HearthMath while at work (doesn't interfere with working) and as often as I can. Wisdom Quest is challenging me to relax and let go to a much deeper level right to the edge of awake and asleep and very very relaxed. If you enjoyed "The Passage", this is an entertaining way to take this to the next level. However, in order to even succeed often requires staying completely in the present moment and completely detached from any expectation of how long it will take and even that kind of desire slows you down. Being timeless and following your breath and detaching from everything gets me where I want to go and it is an excellent way to let go of the stresses of life. I look forward to where all of this can go in the future!Product Review: Amazing

This is the most AMAZING software you will ever purchase. The bio-feed back is incredible! I am at total peace when using this software. Product Review: Wisdom Quest
Summary: 5 Stars
Wisdom Quest picks up right where The Passage leaves off. Not only do you need The Passage for the hardware, but also because you need to know many of the techniques taught in The Passage.
Like The Passage, the music and the visuals are absolutely gorgeous - although there are a few spots with one-dimensional foliage. (Did somebody rush to meet a deadline?) There are new breathing and meditation techniques to learn here, and some are difficult, leaving me a bit light-headed.
However, unlike The Passage, there really is a story here to follow, a Quest to accomplish. There is more inventory (although some of the items made no sense to me), and plenty of surprises. If you get stuck with some of the Myst-like puzzles, there's a Training Manual - Guided Activity Mode included that will help you find the challenge.
