Dusty drapes and ancient chandeliers dot the spooky Margrave Manor house. As Edwina Margrave, you must find your grandfather who`s been missing for ten years. Your only clue to his whereabouts is a strange door with an odd puzzle to unlock. In each room, collect hidden objects and view your strange medley in the collection room. Margrave Manor is the only Hidden Object game that changes the positions of the items every time you visit a room, so you`ll always have a fresh challenge. Can you discover your family`s forgotten past?
  • An eerie Hidden Object game
  • Spooky searchable rooms
  • Find the family secret!

Wasn't going to try based on some reviews, however, glad I did as this is a fun HOG. Objects were good size and just enough of a challenge to find--not too easy, not too difficult.
Classic hidden object game that takes you room to room so you are not wandering around. As rooms are cleared, this opens them up for "free play" mode which I particularly like to replay and beat the game.

Prefer these classics to many of the newer games in which I have wandered too many hours as consulting a walkthrough goes against my gaming conscience. Am a stubborn gamer--no hints, no skips, no walkthroughs gets frustrating at times and so I really enjoy a good old-fashioned HOG. lol
Love you BFG!!

If you want a break from running around in adventure games, this is a great HOG. Straight HOS broken up by jigsaws.
This story is the addictive thing--a real mystery, kept me playing.

This is outstanding from many viewpoints, so if you haven't seen this one and you like classic HOG, give it a shot. It is unique in that, even though you visit each "room" many times, the objects are in different places, so you have to start the hunt from scratch. Some of the music is really good. One of the tunes pulls me back to the game again and again. There is an overarching story, but it's ...Show more

One of the tunes pulls me back to the game again and again. There is an overarching story, but it's not intrusive, and does not slow the game. I wish there were more of this quality. I have played dozens of HOGs over the years and this is my all-time favorite. Sequels were not as good. Show less

This was a refreshing change after playing many adventure puzzle HOS games. I liked that I wasn't timed, so I didn't have to rush to finish the scene. The graphics were clear and good quality. I liked how the developers threw in the extra puzzles of the torn notes and clippings at intervals to tell the story along the way.
I recommend this game for a casual, laid back, not rushed fun.

Not many people liked this game, but I enjoyed it. The story was interesting enough to keep me playing and to continue to the sequel.
You start off with some introductory scenes to get the first piece of the puzzle. After that you need to complete six rooms to get the next piece. Each room is timed and is just a junk pile of items. The items will be in different spots each time you visit the room (and different sizes and orientation). The good thing is once you learn what the item looks like (some of the terms are the English version and not American) the item will look the same for the rest of the game.
For each room you start up with 2 hints, but you get an additional hint every three minutes. If you run out of time, you get to replay the room with new items. There is no penalty for randomly clicking around.
Out of the six rooms, one room will be in the dark so you use a flashlight and the third room is a spot the difference (not too hard once you get used to what to look for). In between the rooms, you'll find torn up paper that you need to put back together to get the story.
Not the most exciting game and it will take a long time to get through all the rooms to get all the puzzle pieces. In addition to the game, after you complete each room you get an object to add to your collection. When you're done the game there will still be more items to collect if you want them all, but you can keep playing the same character and continue searching the rooms. You can also unlock rooms and play each room separately (you'll be graded on how well you do).
Doesn't take too long to decide if it's worth purchasing. Try the demo and after you complete the first six rooms, you'll know how the rest of the game will be and if it's for you. Show less
