Mortimer Beckett and the Secrets of Spooky Manor Preview

Hidden-object games are a hot commodity in the world of casual gaming. In fact, it seems like a new iteration appears on a weekly basis. This we can attribute, primarily, to the popularity of the Mystery Case Files games.

Some are mere clones, stuffing the tried and true mechanic into a new suit of clothes (in this case, different rooms). Others offer a unique twist causing them stand out from the crowd and, hopefully, improve the genre. Mortimer Beckett and the Secrets of Spooky Manor is destined to be one of the latter.
