If you like Hidden Object games play half of it, and then donate the other half to a kid in AfricaвЂ¦ I donвЂ™t know. The story's dumb, but it has enough self-awareness to make itself scarce before youвЂ™ve had a chance to get to know it well enough. They add a great level of variety to the gameplay, but itвЂ™s mostly cheap and drags out the experience way too long. There are no glaring flaws, but itвЂ™s far from perfect. If youвЂ™d ever actually say thatвЂ¦ ThereвЂ™s not too much more to say about this game. At least you canвЂ™t say that Luxor Adventures is going limp fish on you. The keyword here being вЂtriedвЂ™ because it donвЂ™t add nothing to the experience in truth. In the main HOG gameplay, they tried to add variety by including crossword-style clues for objects, and an object you have to place on another related object. The overreliance on this tactic to increase difficulty towards the end ruined the simple fun the game started off as. You either waste time waiting for the marbles to come back around, or keep firing off balls until you get the colour of the marble at the back of the train. You see, you are left with too few options when you can only shoot vertically and only move on a horizontal axis, but the paths towards the end start favouring vertical straights. These were okay at first, but actually became an annoyance. And then you have the luxor game itself where you shoot coloured marbles to match and destroy them before they reach the end of their path.

There were card games, bejewelled games and mahjong games which were fun, if a little too derivative. Similarly, there was вЂfind and assemble puzzle pieces вЂ™ starting to get mediocre. It presented a nice break while maintaining the foundational mechanics of a HOG. You have вЂspot the differencesвЂ™ which was a favourite of mine. They include a variety of other game types to somewhat counteract the long playtime. And there wasnвЂ™t any pixel hunting that I recall. And they do it justice in many of these scenes. 1 or 2 scenes I thought looked really nice, but IвЂ™ve always liked the ancient Egyptian aesthetic. It suffers from the same resolution stretching as other HOGs by the same publisher, but more workable this time. Why? They could have simply not programmed the second half of the game, and it would have been better. The second time you do each hidden object scene, youвЂ™re asked to find 2 lists of objects, including all the ones that youвЂ™ve already found and know the location of. But to do them all again? And twice as long this time? And the ghost pisses off completely, making you question your sanity. Those 5 episodes were already getting lengthy enough and failing to hold my attention as the ghost story dwindled away. This game features 10 episodes, except for the fact that there are only 5 episodes, twice. IвЂ™ve had weird uncles, down on their luck, stay at my place that have been less burdensome, and left more appropriately. You scream and yell: вЂњThere is a story I tell you! I saw it with my own eyes!вЂќ But everyone just thinks youвЂ™re mad. But when they come over and you load up the game, no story happens. But what to do? You tell anyone who will listen friends, family, the local priest. But then, the more you play it, the more the story makes itself known.

Did you leave that there? Did you even touch it? *Shrugs* Oh well, HOGs be weird. Ironically, you canвЂ™t find it no matter how hard you look. But one day you realize youвЂ™ve misplaced the story somewhere. At first everything seems normal ambiguous cartoon cutscenes, usual HOG puzzles, the whole affair.

You get the last copy of this game and load it up. ItвЂ™s a little off, but itвЂ™s going cheap and you could use the break. I mean that, like a ghost story, youвЂ™re down on your luck youвЂ™re poor and bored. Not in the sense that this game involves any level of haunting or interaction with the undead, no. Story, huh? Well, lemme tell you something. I find some truly unique sensations playing old or unknown games. I beat this game that is way too long, and I still donвЂ™t think I got any first impressions. What were my first impressions? I donвЂ™t know.

So thereвЂ™s this game, itвЂ™s called Luxor Adventures. Okay, now that anyone with any discernable taste is gone, IвЂ™m here to address the rest of you. Okay, now that anyone with any How many Hidden Object Games does it take to screw in a lightbulb? I donвЂ™t know, I couldnвЂ™t find any.
