It's a fair hidden object game. I do like that it includes find the difference puzzles also. The puzzles do get more difficult as you progress, which is ok. At least your not charged for hints like some of the dev's who seem pretty scuzzy to me. The reason I gave 5 stars though, you can play the game for $0. That makes it well worth a down load. If you opt to continue playing with ads, it's $0. And, I have yet to see an ad in the game yet.

The game does take a condensed version of actual stories as he background. The player either has to find objects or find the differences in two copies of the same pictures. In general I liked the first game well enough that I purchased the whole series. The problem was that in the later games the hides got really complicated because they under drew them against like backgrounds that made some nearly impossible to find. The find the difference scenes were terrible pictures sometimes that had a lot of blurred sections or written pages in script that had differences in some script and some minute parts of the picture. I love a good challenge, but some of these tricks were just that......Tricks designed to make it nearly impossible to complete. What made them worse was that if you use the hint it will give you a circle over a lot of area that really doesn't nail it down if you still can't find it. A few times I just wanted an out option on something I'd been starring at for a long time, but there was no option available.....Oh......If you tap too many misses you also get a penalty.....I ended up with three penalties on one item before I accidentally tapped the right place. It is fun if they just do a better job in some of the later versions and also provide an out if you're helplessly stuck.

This game has potential. The stories behind the puzzles are interesting...and that's about as good as it gets. First, sometimes you have to spot differences between 2 pictures. That's fine, I actually like doing that. However, some of them are extremely difficult to spot. You can't find some even after getting a hint, and there is no way to skip it and move on. You end up having to just tap and tap hoping to finally hit it. The worst part is not even being able to finish because on the episode called The Musgrave Ritual, one of the items to find is an egg, and it's not there!! This is a known issue! I read somewhere it was fixed and you just needed to uninstall/reinstall. I did that, and it is not fixed. I am stuck there, so the game is just sitting there until hopefully, one day, it is fixed. Until then, 1 star.
