The wave of sequels continues with the second part of a hidden object game that used to be quite popular after release - Hide & Secret 2: Cliffhanger Castle. The game preserves the fascinating game play of the first part while offering some new twists and new puzzles. You will meet the same characters and the story is not less engaging, taking you to lots of locations all over the world in the search of King Arthur's lost armor. The traditional hidden object levels are complemented with a wide variety of puzzle mini-games, and the hidden object game play itself has new features that will make your playing experience significantly richer. The graphics has been improved as compared with the first game, and the whole game is a great example of sequel worthy of the popularity of the original title.
Yard Sale Junkie -
a new hidden-object game developed and published by Sudden Games. The game does have some innovative twists. But
they are not as worked out as they could have been. So I find it hard to say if
the game is all good or all bad. Those are balanced in this game. You are to go
through a number of garage and yard sales to get $30,000 for a boutique in Beverly Hills. The game features such things as customers
telling you what they want and multiple scenes that add uniqueness to the game,
but these features seem to not be worked out very well.
The second version of the Mystery Case Files game series. This is a
clicking puzzle, a good reaction and attention trainer. The point of
the game is to find the items listed in the right-hand side of the
playfield and click on them while you have a limited number of clicks.
The latest version of MCF features many locations, original retro-style
graphics and easy rules.
The
Lost Cases of Sherlock Holmes,
developed by Legacy Interactive and
published by uclick, is a great
puzzle game. This new release does stand out with its content. This game takes
you into the Victorian England to be around the famous detective and his assistant
(and other well-known characters of the book) while they are investigating the
cases of murder, forgery, espionage, theft etc. The game is also full of
different puzzle mini-games in between the seek-and-find levels. The graphics
and the audio are really good and add pleasure to the whole process of
investigation. One of the strong points of the game is the diversity of the
tasks. It helps a lot not to get bored but to get even more interested and
addicted to the cases you are to solve.
The first thing to know about Scruffs is that this is the first game
for Mac that blends hidden object game play with comic plot and wacky
characters. Try to uncover the terrifying family secret of the Scruffs
by hunting for hidden objects in their chaotic house, solving jigsaw
puzzles and playing scribbling games. But there's more to this game
than just scores of puzzles. The Scruffs is a parody to many great
games and movies...
