Nice enough hidden object game with lots of HOS but there was a lot of to-ing and fro-ing and I got lost and ended up in circles. I must have got lost for about five minutes one time. Poor mapping and no map to speak of to help. It won't take you to places you need to go or at least give you a pointer. By the time I learned my way around, the game was over. Some of us have a really bad sense of direction in real life and in games too! I did like the atmosphere though and the graphics and sound and game play were okay. Quite old school. I liked the story too.
I recommend this game!

Mystery Chronicles: Murder Among Friends
Solve a murder mystery involving greed and mistrust among friends in this suspenseful, back-stabbing Hidden Object game.
I played it in timed mode at first but I found myself hopelessly stuck halfway through because I'd used up all the time skipping all the puzzles. I am hopeless at puzzles and had to start the game again. I played in relaxed mode this time, where I could skip puzzles to my hearts content without penalties. Even in relaxed mode, I found it irritating at times, the hint button takes abut three minutes to recharge and the objects were sometimes impossible to find. All in all, I liked it because it was just HOS, one after the other, with nice music, sound effects and atmosphere.
A great little game, suitable for all ages. I think this is my fav out of all of them. Can't believe how addictive it is and how troubles melt away while you play. Nice music too.
Enjoy this beautiful adventure set in a unique interactive 3D Thailand! Complete mysterious puzzles and find hidden objects. Prepare for an unforgettable experience!
I really liked this because it played a bit like a movie. It even had opening credits, like a film. Great voice overs, very interesting characters and just an overall good vibe. It is rather old school and it does seem dated at times but it is original and unique in a sea of the same old stuff that gets churned out nowadays. I wasn't overly keen on the scene graphics but the character graphics were good and the environmental sound effects and game play was decent too. There's a good hint system also, so no danger of getting lost.

Mexicana: Deadly Holiday
Travel between the worlds of the living and the dead to save a loved one!
Quite an exciting, fun and visually pleasing game really but it was a little short. I thought there would be at least another chapter. Good gameplay, sound, graphics and environmental sound effects.
I recommend this game!

Love Story: Letters from the Past
Discover a wonderful Love Story in this fantastic Hidden Object game! Travel back in time and relive a beautiful tale.
It's a sweet, romantic story and after playing the demo, I was drawn into the game and intrigued by the storyline, so I bought it. I did like the unique gameplay where you have to guess what the missing word is and then find the object. I was a bit disappointed though, as it was short and I didn't expect the abrupt ending.
Great game play, colourful customers, gorgeous graphics and was challenging without becoming frustrating. You play a few different restaurants; a burger bar, a cake/dessert shop, a sushi bar, Mexican restaurant and last, but not least, a pizza restaurant. I liked them all, but found the cake shop my least favourite, probably because I don't like sweet stuff that much, and also because I didn't like making the fruit cakes. They were just a tad tedious. It's difficult to get five stars straight off and sometimes later levels can get difficult but I replayed levels after I had more upgrades and was able to get five stars easily. I found it best played in relaxed mode. All in all a really fun fantastic game.
I recommend this game!

Lost Secrets: Bermuda Triangle
Dive in to the most mysterious region on Earth to find out what really happened to your great-grandmother years ago.
A very straight forward old school HOG. Hidden object scenes interspersed with skippable puzzles. An interesting and intriguing storyline with some great little nautical facts relating to The Bermuda Triangle mystery. There is also a cute little romantic relationship threaded in between the conspiracy. The only downside is, there is not a lot of variety in the scenes. It is mostly the same underwater scenes over and over and the game felt a bit short, in my opinion,
This is like The Chronicles of Moses, which is also a Match 3 game in the same style with the same game play. All the Match 3 objects are different though, so this made it a different experience. The cut scenes are great and retell the bible story in an inspiring manner. One small thing though, the voice overs are all done in a robotic voice and are not real actors but it didn't detract too much from the game.
