I am not a gamer. I do not know all the vernacular. What I do know, is that, this game challenged me while not making me feel stupid. The hidden object portion is the best. It is not just find objects. It is the type that requires you to find an object, use that object to figure out another piece of the puzzle. The morphing objects, special cards, etc. that many games have where challenging, but not impossible. I often spent quite a few minutes trying to find them, but I eventually did. I loved this game.
It took me a long time to go through parts of the puzzles, which where great, only to find out, in the end, I did not get the piece I needed for the next part. Okay, I said, I shall use the strategy guide. It took me through exactly what I did, and the end result was, I did not get the piece I needed. This happened so many times that I just started saying pass through difficult puzzles, something I never do. Not my best game.
Having never written a review, I guess I am not the best to do so now. If you enjoy oblique references, than this is the game for you. I prefer games that challenge but are true to the game.
This is the first game I would give a two thumbs up. I do not understand challenges, graphics or challenge level. I am here to say I absolutely loved this game. I hated it to end
