Another exciting Hidden Object Adventure in Rio de Janeiro with Timed or Relaxed options. Travel to Sambodromo, Santa Teresa, Corcovado and even Lapa to search for some extremely well hidden objects including hidden coins and 20 pictures of sandcastles. Every scene has a few hidden coins that aren't on the list, 5 different coins in all that give you an extra hint, extra points, fast forward hint, extra time and even a skip coin to skip a mini game. Each scene has one area that can be zoomed into in order to find the items listed in blue. The only differences I noticed with this edition of Big City Adventures was that you don't pick a family member as your profile, and the graphics have noticeably improved. You earn points with each find and get more points the quicker you find items and the points are tallied along with unused coins, quick finds and the time left over. There are 12 different achievements to earn such as not misclicking or using hints. After each HOS you will play a simple mini game such as clicking tiles to complete a road from start to finish, or, clicking on groups of two or more tiles until all brown cells have had a match over them. My favorite mini game so far was placing 4 soccer balls into 4 goals and then rearranging them one by one until by reason of deduction they are in the correct goals. There are several Big City Adventures available such as San Francisco, Tokyo and even Paris, and with the exception of one or two, all are very fun and relaxing. One of the best features in these games are the short postcard bios that give a brief description of the location you are about to visit. Give this game a try and I'll bet you'll want to try the others, enjoy! Show less

I recommend this game!

I was afraid there would be no more Big City Games and was glad to see this one. If you liked the other games in the series you will love this one. Beautiful graphics and fun music. It is completely hidden object tho - no traveling - with relatively easy puzzles. Very relaxing and fun.

I recommend this game!

I am a huge fan of the Big City Adventure games. Not only are they great entertainment but informative as well. Admittedly I am NOT a fan of the latest generation of HOG games with their endless interactive elements, so I was thrilled to see this latest edition of the BCA games. For those fans who need to have some interactive elements, they are to be found here and the mini-games are a nice, slightly challenging interlude from the main game. If you're looking for the latest, bells and whistles, multiple interactivity and inventory type HOG, look elsewhere. If you're a fan of the traditional HOG, this game is for you!!!! Show less

This is the same type of adventure as the other Big City Adventures - 60 levels of hidden objects and 58 puzzles. In this game, you'll visit Rio and learn fun facts about the country and its sites. Music is on a recycling base of Latin music. You get extra points for any unused time and for hints not used on each level. Graphics are very good - a pleasure to look at.

Music is on a recycling base of Latin music. You get extra points for any unused time and for hints not used on each level. Graphics are very good - a pleasure to look at.

Two modes of time: relaxed and timed. I find that objects are so well hidden that I'd run out of time, so I always play relaxed. But if you do choose timed, there are coins that provide you with extra time on the clock.

HOS: As with the other games, in each HOS, you find 3 coins which add time, provide one or three object hints or add to your score. The HOS are very busy and objects are well blended into the bright and colorful scenery. Included in each HOS are two objects which are found hidden within a "zoomable" area (it closes automatically once you find the two objects).

PUZZLES: Puzzles follow each HOS and are the same type or take-offs of those found in the prior games - probably because they are the most popular and fun. Following each puzzle is a postcard from your next area with fun facts. Show less

Great job yet again, Guys, already looking forward to the next!!!

I've been waiting for another in this series to come out. Couldn't be more thrilled when I saw this :) It was a no-brainer for me. Isn't much difference in game play or mini-games from the others, just a new country. Nonetheless - I love this series!

These are relaxing games to me - always upbeat fun music, mini games vary according to which destination game you are playing so I always look forward to the new take on the mini games. Graphics are good, some of the scenes are harder than others to find the objects but a challenge is good and once you are used to a scene you can locate things quicker. Another hit by Jolly Bear and I LOVE it!!! Show less
