This game is generally easy. There were a couple of times when I had to use a hint, and I was a bit surprised that the indicated indistinct blur was the desired object. I can't really agree with Meryl Evans' comments about sharpness of this game's graphics; I found them somewhat indistinct compared to other titles, even after adjusting screen resolution, etc. In any case, this is a fairly routine HOG with relatively trivial minigames and a story that doesn't hold much interest. A free demo hour is certainly worth your time, and if you have a game credit to burn and like this sort of thing, it probably won't annoy you. Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

If you were not favorably impressed by "Mysterious City: Golden Prague", get ready for another disappointment. Someone needs to work on the descriptive words used on the lists of hidden objects. Here are a few examples of vague, inaccurate, or otherwise confusing ones I noticed while playing the demo: List asked for "Spyglass", object was a magnifying glass; List asked for "Blower", object was a three-bladed electric fan; List asked for "Beetle", object was (found by using a hint) more like a spider - there were two insects clearly visible that were beetles. This is one that I will not be purchasing; I had hoped that there would have been noticeable improvements from the prior "Mysterious City", but the only change is a "Relaxed" mode. It is not an "untimed" mode, just one in which you get a little more time than the last game provided. Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

Why why oh why do they always have to make games in Egypt?? Geez I mean I know mummies and ancient Egyptian history is great, but there are *other parts of the world just as nice and as interesting! This is an ok game, it's not bad but it's not great either, I just didn't like the puzzles, they were rather easy at least for me. Give this Review a Kudos Report as Inappropriate

Like Gnash (sp) said it is a good HOG to pass the time with, I like a game that is not too difficult some of the time so that I don't have to think too much about, it is a nice change from having to use your brain all of the time in a game that gets tiring after awhile and you need a game to just relax with and this fits that bill....

I was hoping they would improve this game after their first one, that didn't happen. It has below average graphics and a item list that's confusing at times because you are not sure what you are looking for. Mini games are on the easy side. It also has a dull story line. It does, however, have appropriate music to the theme and a relaxed mode with a lot of minutes on the clock. This game might be a one for beginning HO players. It's a miss for me.
