Forgotten Riddles: The Moonlight Sonatas Review

It's getting harder for hidden object games to stand out when compared to successful blockbusters like Mystery Case Files and the Dream Day series, but one game that definitely deserves some recognition is Forgotten Riddles: The Moonlight Sonatas. Through clever riddles, compelling gameplay and admirable attention to detail, Blue Team Games and Big Fish Games have created a sweet, if slightly short, seek-and-find adventure.

Hidden Expedition: Amazon Review

I'm a staunch supporter of unique games. Oh sure, they might not enjoy the commercial success of, say, another match-three game or time management sim, but a casual game reviewer can only take so many of these "me, too" clones bloating the industry. But every once in a while a game surfaces that, while not original in concept, succeeds very well in execution. Such is the case with Big Fish Games' Hidden Expedition: Amazon, a new hidden object download that proves you don't always have to reinvent the wheel - it just needs to roll along smoother than its predecessors.

In this Arabian-themed adventure, the only things standing between Prince Tallis and his love, Princess Sadira, are the 78 levels and 26 rooms of The Sultan's Labyrinth. Sadira's father Sultan Bahar has decreed that if Tallis can pass through the maze by solving all of the puzzles and challenges inside, he will earn the right to marry Sadira and become the next Sultan.

Mystery Case Files: Huntsville Review

You know, TV always portrays Poroit and Jessica Fletcher doing the fun parts of detective work: interviewing suspects, putting people behind bars, etc. But you rarely see the grunt work, the TPS reports of being a gumshoe ... staring at a room and looking for clues. Somehow, Mystery Case Files: Huntsville makes this unheralded bit of sleuthing enjoyable ... if only for a while.

The I Love Lucy Game: Episode 1 Review

It was one of the most-watched television show in its day - I Love Lucy, which ran from 1951 to 1957, starred Lucille Ball as lovable naive housewife Lucy Ricardo and Desi Arnaz as Ricky Ricardo, her charming husband and bandleader.
Not only is this influential show still in syndication around the world more than 50 years later, and translated to multiple languages, but now casual gamers can relive (or perhaps discover for the first time) Lucy's hilarious antics in The I Love Lucy Game: Episode 1, a collection of puzzle games based around a memorable episode, Lucy Does a TV Commercial, where our hapless heroine continues her eternal quest for TV stardom.

Mystery in London Review

In the late 19th century, a man the newspapers nicknamed Jack the Ripper committed a series of gruesome murders in London's East End. He was never caught, and the case remains unsolved to this day. In Mystery in London, the latest hidden object adventure from Big Fish Games, you'll attempt what countless sleuths and scholars - both amateur and professional - have tried and failed to do: discover the identity of Jack the Ripper.
