This is a great game for kids to learn to play hidden object scenes - which is accomplished by looking at silhouettes . . . There are also a number of matching pair & spot-the-difference levels to play . . .
There is a timer to this game & only three hints per level, though no option to play it untimed, but no matter - the time limit is generous . . . The puzzles to unlock doors are interesting, & untimed . . .
Wow . . . ! With its cool, hypnotic music, there are lots of awesome versions of the game here - including Solitaire, Nanjing, Waterfalls, Golden Dragon, Collapse, Memory, Four Rivers, & the mind-bending Genius Quest . . . You don't have to be a genius to enjoy all the variations in this game, though . . . !
I recommend this game!

Escape the Emerald Star
You awake to find your cruise ship abandoned and in disarray. Can you track down all the fragments of a map and escape the ship?
A winner - with 25 levels of cool hidden object scenes & awesome trophies for accuracy & speed . . . In addition, if you find all 50 anchors, you get to play bonus rounds of mahjong, which are similar to some of the puzzles that close out a few of the levels . . . Lastly, you get to solve the ultimate problem of escaping the ghost ship . . . !

This is a fun game for kids & adults, with nice hidden object scenes & cool puzzles . . . I particularly liked the Farmer's Market game, which is reminiscent of the hidden object challenge in another cool product - Gardenscapes . . .

This is an awesome game - especially for kids . . . ! Really neat hidden object scenes & playable puzzles . . . The music & graphics are super, as is the quest to complete the 12 days of Christmas . . . A great way to spend time with the kids & get them interested in hidden object games . . . !
More awesome adventures in an incredible post-apocalyptic world . . . The scenes are lovely in their rendering, as is the New Age-type music . . . The puzzles are of moderate difficulty, & though the story line might be a bit confusing at times, the game is worth the effort . . .
No timer, so plenty of time to explore this new air-borne city of the future . . . !
Cool hidden object scenes & moderately difficult puzzles . . . The best part of the game is the numbers tricks you can teach your friends - introduced by the Great Seer himself . . . !
Untimed, with nice graphics, story & characters . . .
This is a beautifully-crafted game - I particularly like how an item must be found to resolve a level before moving on . . . The artwork was top-notch, & the puzzles equally crafty . . . !
Lots of fun in this treasure hunt, but be warned - the hidden object scenes are not ordinary click-&-find . . . Groups of related items must be found & put in place in each scene before progressing through the adventure . . . Moving the cursor over the scene reveals the hot-spots where the items will be placed once found . . . You get a real-workout with this game, but it's definitely worth it - & it's not timed (a plus for me) . . .
The puzzles are moderately difficult, at most . . .
Overall, & great game to start off the series . . .
This is a cool Hidden Object game with artfully concealed items, some of which unlock things in other scenes in a particular level . . . The art work is lovely in a toon-type style . . .
The only complaint I have is that it is not clearly explained in the game that a number of gold coins can be collected in each scene . . .
No timer, so you'll have time to find all those cleverly concealed objects . . . !
