"Mystery Case files: The Revenant's Hunt" is the 16th part in long history of mystery case files.
The Game Series has always made history - in 2005, the classic HO adventure started with "Huntsville".
In "Mystery Case Files: The Revenant's Hunt" the case is a murder victim that raises from his grave.
Is it about revenge? Does this all really happen ?
This is the story behind the game "Mystery Case Files: The Covenant's hunt"
The game is a classic hidden object puzzle adventure (HOPA) game.
It is divided into 6 chapters, well suited to the story that are very nicely drawn up
In "Mystery Case Files: The Revenant's Hunt" there are beautiful mini games - some new and rare or never seen.
The mini games can also be exceeded after a certain time.
Mostly, the mini games also match the story and bring a change.
The HO scenes in themselves are diverse and varied.
Mostly searching for text but there are also looking for picture and silhouette.
Some are interactive - put back, etc...
The soundtrack is a matter of taste. It fits the game very well, but it's not particularly worth mentioning, but I didn't like it very much.
The game has a weakness in the story.
Unfortunately, it doesn't find itself good in the scenes and again you have to be careful that the red thread doesn't get lost.
Summary:
Exciting ho game with light weaknesses in story

Discover the mysterious secret of Green Hill and find out what the mysterious crows are doing.
This is the story behind the game "Mystery of the Ancients: Three Guardians".
"Mystery of the Ancients: Three Guardians" is a classic Hidde-Object-Puzzle Adventure (HOPA).
In the game there are many detailed and clearly designed locations. In this there are many hidden objects to find.
Of course there are also "HO scenes".
The search is mostly for text or silhuette. There are also scenes to combine or put back.
By finding pieces of crystal you can complete your amulet, which can be helpful in the fight against mystical powers.
Clearly the best thing about the game are the many mini games.
These are partly new and designed with a lot of imagination.
My clear favorite is the "3-D" star field for charging the amulet.
You have to turn the stars so that there is a constellation.
The soundtrack is rather subtle, but fits well with the mood of each scene.
The game has a very good map that is nicely drawn and gradually expanded.
Unfortunately, the story is a bit weak.
Unfortunately, it is not always clear where the story is going.

The story of "Dark Romance: Hunchback of Notre-Dame" is somewhat similar to the story of Quasimodo and Esmeralda.
Is Quasimodo really the "monster" as people think?
Commissioned by Cardinal Frollo, you start to investigate.
The artworks of medieval Paris, around Notre Dame are beautifully designed.
However, they could be a bit more detailed for a fairly new game. Also, many scenes are pretty dark, which is certainly due to the story but it does not always make the search easy.
The soundtrack is nice and discreet and usually adapts well to the scenes.
Also in "Dark Romance: Hunchback of Notre-Dame" you play alternately both main characters of the game.
The game is exciting and varied.
The story remains well preserved and is borne by the game.
When playing through many HO-scenes many HO-pictures and mini-games have to be mastered.
The mini games are partly new and fit well with the story.
The map of the game, I would like to be clearer.

Also this time you follow the adventures Alice experiences.
When she wakes up from a dream, her mother explained her that everything she has experienced so far has been a dream, and that everything has changed completely different in the meantime.
Alice breaks up with her mother when she is kidnapped.
Now it is time for Alice to get behind the real secret of her past.
This is the story behind "Darkness and Flame: Enemy in Relection".
"Darkness and Flame: Enemy in Relection" is a classic Hidden Object Puzzle Adventure (HOPA).
There are a lot of new scenes in "Darkness and Flame: Enemy in Relection".
The artworks of the scenes are beautiful and designed with great attention to detail. There are many objects in the scenes to find objects (collectibles and morphing objects).
Of course there are also classic HO pictures to deal with.
These are mostly searches for text or images.
There are also HO images with "put back" and "combine".
All in all, one can say that the variety in the HO pictures is great, and they are beautiful and varied.
In addition, there are several Mingames to play.
These (partially new) mini-games usually go well with the story and the scenes in which they are embedded.
The soundtrack of the game is beautiful.
It's not new (it's the Darkness & Flame soundtrack known from other games), but it's really great and it fits in very well with the mood of the scenes.
In the game there is a tipster, a "solution book" and a really good card.
Summary:
Very successful continuation of the Darkness and Flame series, without special weaknesses.

"Mystery Case Files: Moths to a Flame" is already the 19th installment in the long history of "Mystery Case Files" games.
The game series was even in 2005, the founder of the HO Games, as we know it today.
The journey to the "Zenith Museum of Oddities" brings you all kinds of mysterious difficulties. Lots of puzzles are waiting for you there.
So far the "Mystery Case Files: Moths to a Flame" story.
The game is a classic Hidden Object Puzzle Adventure (HOPA) game.
There are many beautifully rendered scenes with many hidden objects.
The artworks are a little problem though.
In making, "photorealism" and "drawn" are simultaneously in the picture. Unfortunately this does not give the scenes a nice appearance.
There are many minigames to deal with.
Some are new, or at least redesigned. There is enough variety here.
What I liked a lot is the "MCF drone". With it you can "look around" in hard-to-reach areas.
A really nice idea.
The HO scenes themselves are diverse and varied. Some are interactive - with back cover etc ...
The soundtrack goes well with the game and is rather subtle, but it's not worth mentioning.
Not so good, I also found the story here.
She is not always good in the scenes and again and you have to be careful that the thread is not lost. In addition, the game struggles with memories of "Revenhearst" and "Madam Fate". I think MCF should finally go (maybe to episode 20) completely new ways.
Summary:
Exciting, rather classic MCF game with slight weaknesses in the artworks.

With "Enchanted Kingdom: Fog of Rivershire" another sequel of the "Enchanted Kingdom" series of DominiGames has been published in 2018.
In this episode, you travel to Rivershire, where residents are hit by a terrible disease.
It turns people into scary monsters, bit by bit.
Get behind the secret and help the sick people.
That's the story of the game.
To do this you can quickly find a small portable alchemy lab.
With this, and with the help of the magic lens, one can determine and produce the appropriate aids.
The ingredients have to be collected and the many scenes.
The game has many beautifully drawn scenes.
They meet the mood of the game very well and are drawn with love and attention to detail.
In "Enchanted Kingdom: Fog of Rivershire" the HO fans will get their money's worth.
There are many HO scenes in different shapes.
There is search for text, combine, put back ...
A varied thing...
Similarly, there are many beautiful and some novel mini games.
They usually go well with the story and bring it forward.
There are also mini-HO scenes in which few objects have to be searched to unlock a larger object.
It brings variety into the game.
The soundtrack is nice and discreet.
He adapts well to the scenes and the mood.
The pleying time of "Enchanted Kingdom: Fog of Rivershire" is "plentiful" - even in the Standard Edition.
Only the map of the game does not always contribute to the clarity and the story is not always easy to understand on the basis of the "diary".
Summary:
Nice, mystical HO Games without big weaknesses.

"Dark Romance 8 - Winter Lily" is all about a sinister queen who would do anything to stop old age.
For the right magic to be found, she needs a girl with a pure heart.
The story takes place in the winter kingdom Winterhelm.
The artworks of the winter landscape are very beautiful and designed with great attention to detail.
The soundtrack is nice and discreet and usually adapts well to the scenes.
In "Dark Romance 8 - Winter Lily" you play alternately both main characters of the game. So you experience two sides of the story. The concept is interesting and goes completely well here.
The game is exciting and varied.
The story is preserved and is borne by the game.
In the course of the game you have to solve many beautifully drawn and partly novel HO scenes and mini games.
