And then, forced by some higher forces, I started playing my first hidden object game.
It was "Natural Threat: Ominous Shores". I was sitting there, skeptical to death, believing I will die of boredom, but a funny thing happened.
Before I started to record it, I wanted to play it so I can get to know this game. Before I could know what hit me, the game was over and I was overwhelmed.I never thought this could be something that got my attention so fast.
Later I started to be really picky before I realized that there are so many point and click hidden object games. My favorite and cheapest way to get them was through Big Fish Games.
Some games just went through my hand and I loved them, but they didn't leave a big impression on me. Some games even managed to get to my top games of my life.
Games like Witches' Legacy (complete series), Voodoo Whisperer, all the Edgar Allan Poe games. Those games left a real big impact on me.
What I value the most in games like this is more story, less searching for hidden objects. For example Witches' Legacy has this most intriguing storyline. It reminds me a lot about the story of Hansel and Gretel and also about those horror stories you sometimes read in the child's book. You get attached to the character you play right away. Being a savior to an innocent little girl makes you feel like a real hero. You have to use all you have against someone that has magical abilities. And it's tricky. Sometimes you get stuck at some part of the game any you really don't know what to do next. And it takes you really long to find out where you have to go. Call me a strange person- but I like that. It's a challenge. Also, the story goes on. Through other parts of the game, you see that little girl grow up.
Voodoo Whisperer is a different story. I love those games filled with occult mysteries. They really get my attention. And also graphics are awesome also. Colors that are stunning and mysteries at every corner.
So guys- I think you should just give it a try. Maybe you will like it as I did.
