Etch A Sketch Review

4 Stars

Who could forget the beloved 50-year-old children's toy, Etch a Sketch. You know, that rectangular red and grey gizmo that lets you unleash your creativity by using knobs to draw horizontal and vertical lines on a blank screen, and then shake it to start over? Now you can download a digital version of this classic toy, which goes above and beyond the original in the gameplay department.

Treasure Masters, Inc. Review

3 and half Stars

When you think about hunting for hidden treasure, you're probably picturing a dashing archaeologist like Indiana Jones. Despite the romance of outrunning giant boulders and pits of snakes, most amateur treasure hunters rely on simple shovels, metal detectors and diving rods to seek out their miniature fortunes. Treasure Masters, Inc. is a hidden object adventure that takes players across 48 levels, including numerous inventory-based puzzles and just under a dozen mini-games. You won't even get dirt under your fingernails.

Upon her arrival, Jane learns that others have received the same latter, and thus begins your hidden object game mystery.

Puzzle Hero Review

2 and half Stars

Combining match-three puzzle solving with a rich fantasy role-playing infrastructure was a stroke of genius that produced one of the most unique and compelling puzzle games in recent memory. I'm talking, of course, about Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords. Clearly created in Puzzle Quest's image, Puzzle Hero is a much-simplified romp by comparison, whose goal seems to be to dumb down the Puzzle Quest foruma for those who may have found the game's Dungeons & Dragons-style game mechanics intimidating.
