Hidden Object games – Where is the boundary between reality and fiction?

You don’t have to be a computer genius, or have any distinguishing features, or to be an expert in history, engineering, painting, etc. or a sleuth just to reveal all the mysteries of Hidden Object games (as a mystery is usually the main gripping trait of these games). Just be yourself and play casual games from time to time, just to burn time or relax. Thus and so such games are easy for getting (even a child will cope with it), tho’ enjoy nice graphics and short story-line.

Casual game – a PC or MAC game for a big audience (quite common definition, and very boring).

As for me, it’s a sort of universe (not the world above, and not a parallel world) in which I dive when I see a splash of a game on the screen. From this very moment I’m not just an ordinary person in this universe I’m playing the main part in the story where the events will be moving in line with my wishes (sometimes I feel myself like a stage director).

“All things are difficult before they are easy.” Every game begins with writing the script, for example based on rescuing people or yourself, escaping, surviving, or solving mysteries. The script can be generated by ur imagination:

• Story based on family mysteries(each has a family skeleton ):
  Family Mystery – The Story of Amy
  All the Natalie Brooks games
  Mysterious Worlds: The Secret of Oak Island
  Dream Chronicles: The Chosen Child
• We know little about some cities:
  City Sights: Hello, Seattle!
  Mystery Stories: Berlin Nights
  Mystery P.I. – Lost in Los Angeles
  Big City Adventure: San Francisco
• Unknowable parts of our universe – full of mysteries:
  Kuros
  Mystery of Shark Island
  Mystery Stories: Island of Hope
  Midnight Mysteries: The Edgar Allan Poe Conspiracy
• Ghosts (brrr.. Horrors):
  G.H.O.S.T. Chronicles: Phantom of the Renaissance Faire
  Paranormal Agency
• Magic.. so strange and unexplored:
  Pahelika: Secret Legends
  Magic Academy 2

And many others, just enumerated the ones I like more…

Of course there is always the main hero in a Hidden Object game. You know when a writer creates his novel the main hero and the author have smth in common, some traits, habits; the same happens with a painter. So why can’t we say the same about games, as game creators(designers, script writers, even programmers) put smth in the heroes they create. If you are attentive enough You’ll notice that heroes of different games (created by one company) have smth common. For example compare Jane and Natalie Brooks from Realore (mean not only their hair color…).

Hidden Object games are in progress… Now we see amazing graphics, sound effects, add-ons of all sorts, hope it’s not the end!!! Hidden Object games are not only “find & click”, now it’s a mix of game genres – puzzle, time management, arcade.

And one more thing – there is always a “Happy End!!!” in Hidden Object games.

This fall two more games are supposed to be released – Mortimer Beckett and the Lost King and Romance Of Rome. Looking forward!!!
