I am enjoying this game. Music is very light. Objects are visible enough to find, most of the time. Interesting side challenges with each level - 1) Find the object in sequence for extra points; 2) Find all the jewels on each level (I have been unable to); 3) Points for no mis-clicks; 4) A challenging puzzle which can be tricky, given clues that make you think.

None of these side challenges are necessary to complete a level, which is nice. Basically a fun and challenging game for its genre and its age. Graphics are good enough, and as I mentioned, music is quite sparse; all of which makes for good game play. Show less

A basic but kooky HOG, which has some interesting little tasks in each scene. There is a riddle to solve in each one. You click on the object you think answers the riddle. There are also gems to find, and you will have to move things out of the way, twiddle knobs on radios, open boxes, that kind of thing.
There are only 5 hints available for each chapter. There is an opportunity to refill

A basic but kooky HOG, which has some interesting little tasks in each scene. There is a riddle to solve in each one. You click on the object you think answers the riddle. There are also gems to find, and you will have to move things out of the way, twiddle knobs on radios, open boxes, that kind of thing.
There are only 5 hints available for each chapter. There is an opportunity to refill depleted hints, at the end of each level, by playing a basic match 3 game, which is always the same.
Apart from the obvious leaning into boredom after a while of doing this, I really liked the game. The only thing was, all the riddles and gems and cute little puzzles to find them, ended after a few chapters, and you were left with the same basic HOS to play over and over again. Could have done with at least five new scenes with new riddles and gems.
Considering only four people made this game though, it's really good. They couldn't or wouldn't do it these days and the game wouldn't be half as fun.

I liked the idea of hidden object scenes used to unravel the past, but the actual play didn't make the grade. The "game board" consists of the mansion's rooms and sliding jewels which randomly land on 4 rooms at a time when the dice are rolled Armed with only 5 non-renewable clues, the player must find all listed objects to get to the HO room in the center of the board.

I liked the idea of hidden object scenes used to unravel the past, but the actual play didn't make the grade. The "game board" consists of the mansion's rooms and sliding jewels which randomly land on 4 rooms at a time when the dice are rolled Armed with only 5 non-renewable clues, the player must find all listed objects to get to the HO room in the center of the board. Solving this scene reveals a dull, visually trying match 3 game which, if solved, refils your 5 hint maximum. A chapter of the "story" (I use the term very loosely) follows and the process is repeated until the story is told. But...the grammar is poor, the plot makes little sense and there's absolutely no incentive to progress. There are actual riddles to solve (1 to each room, each round it seems) and jewels to find, but that's it. Total it. As for the ending, I couldn't make sense of it at all. I suggest you visit the demo and, if you can endure the oddities and frustrations, this might be your game. It absolutely isn't mine. The elements of a good game are there, but highly misused. I hope for a better 2nd game from this group. Show less
I don't recommend this game.

The sole originality of this game resides in the gameboard........ and the Match 3 games.
There is no puzzle, no minigame, no action to perform. Only HO Scenes, some of which are neat and others kind of blurry. None offer any interactivity and all the items are given in a list.
They are not too difficult to find and that's a good thing because hints are limited to 5 per 5 HO Scenes.
Every 3

They are not too difficult to find and that's a good thing because hints are limited to 5 per 5 HO Scenes.
Every 3 misclicks, the screen zooms in on you briefly. Quite surprising the first time, most annoying and eye-straining from the second time onwards.
In addition you collect jewels and gain achievements under certain conditions, although this is not mandatory.
Now the originality:
In the center of the board 2 dice; click on them to roll them and 4 chips move along the edge then stop on a location each. Click on one location to access a HO Scene. Do the same with the others then click on the center for the fifth one.
You're then back with the board and the dice. Repeat the process.
The Match 3 game is dull and presents always the same pattern: brown trihedras, brown cubes, brown cylinders. No other color, no variety in the layout, no power-ups.
I am not sure I grasped the story; it is rather confused and unclear
As regards the riddles, I didn't see any.
It takes a real fan of HOGs and Match 3's to like this one and go through all 15 chapters. I am not one of them.
Note: Review based on the demo

No interactivity, pasted in story line, the same objects/locations over and over, useless jewel hunt and repetitive match three game make this game one to be avoided at all costs. Spend your money elsewhere.
I don't recommend this game.
