Magic Encyclopedia
Posted by Luna Cruz on November 18th, 2008 in Reviews

The title “Magic Encyclopedia” doesn’t really describe anything about this hidden object game. If it were up to us, we’d have called it: “Fun mystery solving while teleporting around the world, with some cool mini-games along the way.” Okay, that might be too long. But the word “encyclopedia” is hardly exciting, when this game is [...]

Azada: Ancient Magic
Posted by Nick Kojima on September 5th, 2008 in Reviews

We were terribly excited to learn that one of the top games of the last year, Azada, finally had a sequel. But is it as good as the original? Does it have the same great mix of mystery, story, and minigames? Would it keep us amused nearly as long? All good questions, and sadly, the [...]

The Mystery of the Crystal Portal
Posted by Luna Cruz on July 31st, 2008 in Reviews

Move over, Indiana Jones - you’ve got Nicole Rankwist on your tail. Call me biased, but it’s rare for me to see a female player character who isn’t the stereotypical “cute” or “vivacious”, and Nicole is neither of those. She’s a smart, serious-looking New York journalist, and daughter of a famous archaeologist who’s gone missing [...]

Posted by Marcus Albers on July 10th, 2008 in Reviews

I’ve played quite a few hidden object, or seek-and-find, games in my time. They have ranged from the so-so, such as The History Channel Lost Worlds, to the excellent, like the Mystery Case Files series. There are certain things that I look for when evaluating these games, such as the quality of the graphics, the [...]
