This really is not a bad game, although as I said, the low challenge level is strictly for beginners. Although not as good as the Woman in White from the same series, it still boasts a very interesting storyline. The graphics and voiceovers are ok and HO's are actually more difficult than mini games, but still entertaining, as you try and solve the mystery of the yellow room.
I recommend this game!

Another story of an Agatha Christie book, which is in a hidden object adventure mystery format. As Hercule Poirot you need to unmask the murderer. Graphics are fine depicting the mayn places of interest, and there are game cards and cartoon strips that continue the story when necessary. Main focus is on HO although there are some mini games which are relatively easy. However the HO scenes are more difficult as they have a timer which is a great concept which makes the game more appealing.

This is a hidden object game based on the famous Agatha Christie book. You take on the role of Hercule Poirot, her famous sleuth and must find the murderer. Game is basically mainly a number of HO scenes which you must complete under a certain time to continue. Story progresses when you finish each chapter. The main facts are told in cartoonish strips and game cards that you discover. Graphics and music are ample for the purpose and mini games are mainly on the easy side.

This is a great game to play alone or with friends, very similar to Monopoly but also different in some ways too. You can compete alone against computer opponents on 3 different boards which allows for variety. You can also play against your friends. The game is great fun and I would reccommend it to anyone. I only wish it was a little more difficult to beat the computer opponents. Having said that it is not too easy, it does take time.

This is a good follow up in the Brink of Consciousness series, although less challenging than its predecessor. The storyline is again intriguing, you are in Victorian Britain chasing the lonely hearts killer, who seems to murder his broken hearted victims once they have been held prisoner for 30 days. There is another damsel in distress to save, once you find out the identity of the murderer. There are great voice overs, excellent graphics and nice music. There are also HO's and puzzles to solve. I was impressed with the HO's as they required a little more effort than before. However the puzzles were much fewer than in Dorian Gray, and unfortunately very easy to solve, apart from the final chapter where the hardness goes up a notch. I played it on the hardest of three levels, but still, the puzzles were few and way too easy, what a shame.
I recommend this game!

This is an absolute wonder of a game. You are Sam, a journalist whose girlfriend Anna has been abducted by a cunning murderer, in Dorian Gray syndrome. You have to attempt to save her, before it is too late, by exploring the fiend's trap filled mansion, while your every move is being watched. The storyline is compelling, as you need to solve the puzzles and avoid the traps, before Anna ends up like his other victims. There are excellent graphics and voiceovers and I absolutely loved the music and atmosphere. There are HO's and many new puzzles, not always easy which is nice for a change. Backtracking is fine, as if you were to use an object you found straight away, in the same location, it would offer absolutely no challenge at all, I prefer having to remember, it is a little more challenging. All in all a great experience. Definitely reccommended.

This is such a beautiful game to play, especially if you love history, like I do. You are catapulted into the past with the amulet of time, to save the life of the king in 16th century France. You are informed by his mistress about an assasination atttempt, which you must prevent, so this is also a kind of detective story as you need to find and stop the conspirators. There is an excellent storyline with beautifully drawn period graphics, nice music and voiceovers and great ghostly effects as you interact with characters. Plenty of HOS puzzles and mini games keep you busy, although they are on the easy side. However there are many beautifully drawn hidden object scenes, with some lovely feminine objects like fans and mirrors and beautiful ornaments, rather than the horrid junk pile you normally get. I would definitely reccommend this game, the storyline alone is compelling. There is treachery, murder, false incrimination, sabotage, betrayal, need I say more?

This is a very good sequel to Ravenhearst the amazing original. You play the detective who returns to the haunted Ravenhearst manor to disvover its many secrets and free the trapped spirits. There are excellent graphics and voiceovers with creepy music that adds to the atmosphere. There are lots of HO's but also lots of puzzles, some of which can be quite challenging, which is just as it should be. I even found myself skipping one puzzle, 'bashing the trolls'. However, I enjoyed the fact that many puzzles were challenging, unlike more recent games, where puzzles are too simple. A definite winner, do not miss it.

This game is different to others and is pretty good, although by no means perfect. An excelllent gripping storyline is its greatest strength, with the player taking the role of the detectives tracking down the elusive engagement killer who slaughters young brides. The difference in this game is that you need to investigate not only with finding clues, but also testing stuff in the science lab, which makes it more realistic. It is a good length game of six chapters, filled with HO scenes, mini games and puzzles. The graphics are nice and the music too, there is also a lot of substance in the game which is another of its advantages. However, its main weakness is that it can sometimes feel a little frustrating around the junk pile HO scenes, however the hint button recharges quickly. Also you are not able to pick a harder level where you may be able to avoid the helpful on screen flashing. You will have a lot to do, so if you like that, then this is the game for you. All in all a pretty good experience, should appeal to many.
I recommend this game!

I enjoyed playing this game. The storyline finds you waking up in a deserted hospital after a car crash. You need to find out what has happened, as well as finding your husband and daughter before leaving this strange town. Graphics are fine and the music is eerie which is just right. This is a good game not easy but not too hard either, there are also some good puzzles and some HO scenes. Will appeal to many.
