The last Mystery Trackers, Train to Hellswich, was a complete disaster, but it appears that the Mystery Trackers train is back on track, just in the nick of time! (how long is a nick of time?) You're going to need a hazmat suit and a gas mask for this investigation detective as you return to the troubled little town of Brightfield where the citizens of this frozen little town, are victims of a biological experiment. All it takes is a single breath of not so fresh air, and within minutes, an amazing biological transformation takes place, turning man into beast. What is the purpose of this cruel experiment? Is it too late to contain this Dr. Jekyll, Mr. Hyde potion?
You can't investigate without a partner by your side, and Elf is the best man, er, dog for the job. He looks super awesome in his custom made hazmat suit, however, the purpose of a hazmat suit is to create an airtight seal to keep the good stuff in and the bad stuff out. The problem with Elf's suit is that his tail isn't covered so let's keep our fingers crossed that poor little Elf doesn't turn into a massive, rabid, Pit Bull. The most important piece of equipment you have on this case, is your Gas Mask, but the filters need to be changed often or you may as well just breath the atmosphere. There is a Gas Mask meter on the left of the screen that indicates when you need to stop investigating, and start looking for a new filter. This is a feature I happen to love because the Gas Mask filters just so happen to be Morphing Objects, but the beauty of this feature is that the Morphing Object doesn't morph until it's time for a new filter! This Collector's Edition version also has Collectible Playing Cards (but I haven't finished the game yet to see what the cards are for, I wanted to write my review because I wanted folks to know that this is a great game in spite of a couple of negative reviews) There are also Collectible Fresco Puzzle Pieces to find, and a variety of Achievements to earn..
The Hidden Object Scenes are varied with Interactive List finds, Silhouetted Shape finds and even a scene where you find the correct section in a picture as shown on puzzle tile squares. I will say that I rarely use the hint feature on a HOP, in fact I can usually find the correct objects without looking at the list, but I had to use the hint on both the first HOP and the second because they have done a wonderful job hiding items in plain sight, so bravo my big eared elephant devs.
The Mini Games are a vast improvement over the previous easy breezy games offered in the last several Mystery Tracker games. Some puzzles are still fairly easy, some aren't, but most are entertaining. Below are brief descriptions of some of the games you'll encounter during the demo:
1) Slide tokens along a triangle shaped track until they align with the correct symbols.
2) Drag tiles along the grid to their correct positions.
3) Open the first aid kit by adjusting 3 sliders to complete the image on the token.
4) Move the red ball along the tracks traversing every line just once.
5) Match the picture on the large octagon with the images next to them, using the yellow center to rotate and swap the octagons.
6) Connect each square to one or more squares with one or two lines. Select gaps between squares to add or remove lines which cannot cross.
7) Enter the code according to the clue shown.
This Collector's Edition has 8 Concept Art pictures, 8 Wallpapers, a Secret Room which is secret, 32 (to the best of my counting skills) Collectible Fresco Puzzle Pieces, Morphing Gas Mask replacements (this feature can be turned off) 4 Music Soundtracks, 22 Achievements to earn, a built in Strategy Guide and a Bonus Chapter. Give the demo a try and I think you'll agree that this is a much better version of the last few dud Mystery Trackers games, enjoy! Show less

I almost did not buy the game due to early reviews. Because I have enjoyed the series in the past I decided to do the demo. So glad I did... it is fun! There is something so comforting about the consistency of this series. I always feel I am going back to play with characters I know and like. Alf is a hoot. He is the only animal helper I like. He does the funniest things. For example there is a scruffy, mean cat in one room just waiting to make trouble. So when we need an item the cat is blocking. We call on Alf, thinking he will bark and scare the cat away. But no ... Alf shows more flare than that. He climbs to a height above the cat and drops a big metal bowl on him trapping the cat. You can hear the cat underneath growling. it was so unexpected I laughed out loud. So clever! This game is funny, light hearted and a joy to play. Team what works on this game has quite a sense of humor.
As usual the detail in the scenes is incredible. It is very cold here so the snow fit right in to what my own surroundings look like. Every detail is there. Look for things like foot prints in the snow, and more, things that don't add to the story but make the scenes so real. I love that, it is a creative delight.
The other thing I love is the feedback sound effects. MT has used the same sounds since the very beginning. I love the solid feedback sounds when we choose an item or touch things etc. All great details that make it fun and interesting to play.
I know there are some less than positive reviews but I urge you to give this game a try. I am so glad I did. I hope you enjoy it.

Mystery Trackers are back to their excellent entertainment. Since I've had to batten down the hatches here at home, it seems only appropriate that as an agent for Mystery Trackers I should be dropped in a town knee deep in snow. With my loyal partner at my side we are off to find the mad scientist and save the town from changing into monsters. But this time of year with the snow and the holidays everyone seems to turn into monsters anyhow, its great for me to be able to change that. I'm having a BLAST. As always "Tracker's" HOPs require concentration to find the objects.(they aren't put right in front of your face). Mini puzzles are challenging with out being to hard.For me it's refreshing to not have a gimme puzzle put in front of me every five minutes. There's morphing objects, fresco pieces and playing card to collect. In other words there's PLENTY to keep you looking. I give this enjoyable entertaining puzzle 5 stars all around

I have all the Mystery Trackers series so I had to have this edition too. Mystery Trackers: Queen of Hearts Collector's Edition takes you to the small town of Brightfield, a pleasant village where things have mysteriously taken a complication for the worse. Apparently, the fine folks of Brightfield have been plagued by some kind of an odd illness that is turning them into diseased monsters. Can you travel to Brightfield and get behind the cause of this viral disease? You really have no choice or you too will succumb to the infection and become a monster yourself. Check it out whenever you get a chance. If decide this adventure intrigues you the Collector’s Edition,offers an extra bag of treats waiting for you. There is a really exciting bonus chapter at the end in which you can assist the Brightfield police as they hunt down a dangerous criminal. You can replay your favorite minigames and puzzles time and time again, and as you advance in the game you can pick up hidden collectibles and unlock achievements along the way. Much fun! And, if you happen to get stuck somewhere in the gameplay, you can ‘cheat’ and use the integrated Strategy Guide to help you figure out where to go next. I would also like to add that reviews of "Demo Play Only' can sometimes do a disservice to the game in it's entirety. I enjoyed this edition from beginning to end and onto the bonus game. Fans of the series are going to enjoy adding to this to their Mystery Trackers collection. If you are new to the series, this is a good place to start. I recommend to players of all levels...

The last few weeks have been an exercise in bizarre games.
I thought Broken Hours, which is a fine game, set new standards of weirdness. This installment of Mystery Trackers though not as good as the MCF game surely gives Broken Hours a run for its money.
In this tale Dr. Cyanide apparently works for an equally evil woman I guess she is the Queen of Hearts mentioned in the game title. The queen has abducted a young woman vital to the goings on and the doctor has devised a gas which inhaled transforms ordinary people into hideous monsters.
The detective must get to the bottom of this dilemma and foil the queen with the help of course of our intrepid chihuahua Elf. The pooch is decked out in his own hazmat suit so he doesn't breathe the poisonous gas. Poor Elf is ugly enough without being turned into something even more absurd.
As in all HOPA, the detective must gather items and perform tasks ( via puzzles and HO segments ) to further the quest.
A note to all developers: Is it not time to mothball certain chores such as picking up a broken piece of glass which then must be wrapped in a cloth so a rope can be cut. I have also had more than my share of lockpicks and oils to remove rust etc. These game designers need to provide new features since the same old same old has reached high levels of ennui.
While not among the best of the MT series, Queen of Hearts is far superior to its predecessor the Train to Hellwitch which is dreadful.
I am not blown away by this game and I did not care about the collectibles , heck I even forgot what they are!! Perhaps I might consider the SE version later on should I have a free game code soon to expire. As an aside, why does BFG subject us with expiration dates on the freebies?
I am a bit underwhelmed by this game so it gets a lukewarm recommendation.

In a nod to one of my favorite games in the series, Raincliff, we go back to those familiar scenes in the town of Brightfield, which seems like a homecoming of sorts. With Elf by your side (and all decked out in his stylish doggie hazmat suit) you will battle an epidemic that is turning Brightfield’s citizens into monsters.
Gameplay Modes Include: Casual, Advanced Hardcore, and Detective, which is the custom mode where you can fiddle with various settings. Your tools include an interactive map and your little buddy, Elf. I know that many of you dislike helpers and for the most part I am not overly fond of them but Elf is an exception because he is really one of the trademarks of the Mystery Trackers games.

At one time I loved playing the HOPS in a game from the Mammoth team, but in an effort to make their games more difficult, the team has resorted to including some very tedious HOP scenes that I didn’t enjoy. Yes, there is variety in the scenes and many are interactive but I certainly don’t like having to hunt through dark scenes to find tiny or almost invisible items. I like challenge but don’t want to grit my teeth as I play through a HOP. While the HOPS are tedious, I found the puzzles fun and doable. Some had more challenge than others but all of them were entertaining. I particularly enjoyed the sliding puzzle where we must place items by the symbols on their tokens. It was a bit time-consuming and I loved it since I’ve not seen this puzzle in a long time. Other puzzles were equally fun to solve which compensated for the HOPS.

If you enjoy the CE version of games, this one includes the following extra content: fresco pieces and cards to locate in various scenes, morphing objects that are necessary to your survival. Other standard extras include achievements, bonus chapter, strategy guide, wallpapers, concept art, music, videos, replay of HOPS (but why anyone would want to suffer through them a second time is beyond me) and puzzles, a secret room and more.
As much as I have always loved the Mystery Trackers games, the HOPS are not what I consider fun. My eyes are excellent but there are many older players who have issues seeing items that are as tiny as many of the hidden objects in Queen of Hearts. In the past I couldn’t hit the buy button fast enough when a new Mystery Trackers game was released but I might decide to wait on this one. If you really don’t mind sorting through dark junk piles then this game is right up your alley. Please be sure to try the demo to see if Queen of Hearts is a game you will enjoy. Show less
