As usual, PopCap Games delivers another good game! In this particuliar game, you are seeking the whereabouts of the World Diamond. Some of the many locations you visit are England, Russia, Greece, India and Japan. In addition to finding your usual hidden objects, there are other objects you must find in order to open up the unlimited seek and find mode. The developers have also added another mode of play. Now, when you've unlocked the unlimited seek and find, there's a Spot the Differences game you can play also. No complex puzzle-solving skills are needed to play this game. It's well worth the money!

This is another really enjoyable game from PopCap. You can play it as slow as you like which is great for those of us who are playing to relax, not beat a clock. Would highly recommend to anyone who likes seek and find games.

3.0 out of 5 stars Way to repetitive and drawn out, May 7, 2010

This review is from: Amazing Adventures: Around The World (CD-ROM)

I bought this game because once you've collected the 25 items, you can just find the hidden items. I found the 25 items (actually there are 2 items in each screen, for a total of 50), and I still had 14 levels to finish the game. I will never finish the game, because for each "level", there are 4 areas to search. After the first 5 or so levels, you are searching the same places over and over again, although there are new items to be found. After each of the 4 areas within the levels, you must also complete a game (match the items in the box, find missing items, etc.) and there is no way provided to skip any of them. This really makes for a long game and because of the repetition and mandatory games, it gets boring. I will come back and just do the hidden object finding because I don't have to do any of the silly games!
