The Game Review

Game Visuals

I want to mention that the visual for the game is nicely done. The visuals can be adjusted in the game's option menu.

Game Audio

I want to mention that the audio for the game is well done even if it is simplistic and somewhat repetitive. The audio can be adjusted in the game's option menu as well.

Gameplay

There are two different difficulty game modes to choose from: Casual and Advanced.

The notebook keeps track of the progression in the game. Such as story events and clues.

There is no map available in the game. The player has to remember where to go in the game.

There is a padlock feature that is available to lock the inventory panel in place to make it stationary.

The hidden object scenes consist of the following: Traditional word lists. Some of these hidden object scenes may require little or no interaction.

The puzzles are fairly easy to solve without having the need to skip any of them.

Since this is a collector's edition game, there is a bonus chapter, it can be accessed only after the main story is completed.

Miscellaneous

There are extra features in the game: Bonus Chapter; Concept Art; Wallpapers and Game's Strategy Guide. Most of these extra features can be accessed only after the entire game is completed.

Final thoughts: I have found this game enjoyable to a certain extent. The replay value for this game is low. I recommend this game but not at the game's full price value.
