1.0 out of 5 stars Frustrating and silly, May 20, 2009

= Fun:1.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Hide & Secret: Cliffhanger Castle (CD-ROM)

If the inane between-game dialogue doesn't get you, then the confusing and frustrating search scenes sure will. The images are grainy and it's very difficult to find objects because many of them are so small. You only are granted a certain number of hints at the start of each puzzle, with no way to earn extras, so if you use them up, you're forced to restart the puzzle. In the "find the difference" puzzles, the differences are SO subtle as to sometimes even be hard to see once you've used a hint! The one puzzle I did like was the silhouette search, where you are shown a silhouette of the item rather than the name of it. This made finding the fuzzy object quite a bit easier. I love a challenge, but this game was just frustrating and annoying. Hidden Expedition series or Mortimer Beckett are much more enjoyable than this one.

they should have kept this game a secret . It was a waste of my time and money. I needed ex ray eyes to find some of the hidden objects. I put the game up will never look at it again...

= Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Hide & Secret: Cliffhanger Castle (CD-ROM)

The story made no sense to me...can totally live without it, and play the games on their own. The 3 stars were for the variety of the games; it was a nice assortment of different hidden object searches. I rather liked that things were hard to find and somewhat challenging.
