The Heritage Review
By Andy Chalk
The Heritage opens in 1916, as a young woman seeking escape from the death and destruction of the First World War flees to her grandfather's old, abandoned mansion. Villagers living nearby whisper dark tales of insanity, but she's not frightened; after all, what could be worse than the horrors of war? But as she quickly discovers, sometimes the villagers know best.Hotel Review
When a hotel in France starts experiencing some supernatural phenomenon, it only makes sense to call the NYPD, right? OK, maybe not. But that's the premise of Hotel, a point-and-click adventure from Cateia Games (The Legend of Crystal Valley, Iron Roses) that manages to make the genre more appealing to new players, though this will probably make it a far too easy experience for adventure game veterans.Strange Cases: The Lighthouse Mystery Review
By Andy Chalk
A dark dream. A mysterious woman with a glowing blue pendant. A dead FBI agent and a missing scientist. It's strange stuff, alright. The sort of strange stuff that makes up Strange Cases: The Lighthouse Mystery, a new hidden object game that gets just about everything right.Lilly Wu and the Terra Cotta Mystery Review
By Chad Sapieha
Most people trust the National Geographic brand, which means there's a sizeable built-in audience for a game that uses the magazine's photography and writing as its foundation. Lilly Wu and the Terra Cotta Mystery, a new hidden object game published by National Geographic Games that turns the death of Chinese emperor Qin Shihuangdi into a whodunit, plays to this audience to mixed effect.Robinson Crusoe and the Cursed Pirates Review
Pirates get romanticized a lot, but if Robinson Crusoe and the Cursed Pirates is to be believed, it was a pretty lousy gig. Swipe one inappropriate bit of loot and all of a sudden you're marked with the Black Spot and doomed to haunt an island until the end of time. You do get to hang out with parrots and monkeys, though, which is kind of cool.Art Stories Review
By Chad Sapieha
Most of the time Art Stories is a pretty standard match-three puzzle game in the vein Jewel Quest. Players have to clear colored orbs from grids of varying shapes and sizes by swapping pairs to make horizontal or vertical rows of three or more like-colored spheres. It's entertaining enough, but it's also very been-there-done-that. However, it still manages to stand out from the crowd by virtue of its frequent "art" levels, which add a unique secondary challenge that, though executed a bit sloppily, ends up being both fresh and fun.Lost Lagoon: The Trail of Destiny Review
It's tough to make a standout hidden object game these days, as it seems like a new one comes out every three and a half minutes. There's nothing actually wrong with Lost Lagoon: The Trail of Destiny, but everything it does has been done better by another game, probably twice. It's a perfectly competent, utterly adequate, and thoroughly forgettable game.Journey of Hope Review
By Andy Chalk
Abandon all hope, ye who enter here, and you'd be well-advised to stay away from this game, too. What can one say about Journey of Hope, the new hidden object game from MechLab and Alawar? It's ridiculously easy. It's ridiculously short. It's about as much of a journey as walking down to your corner store for a loaf of bread and, to carry the witticism just a little bit further, I sure hope you didn't pay any money for it.
