Department 42: The Mystery of the Nine

Inferior to other HO games, the hit box for HOs are too small. Sometimes I found it but failed clicking it. Very Frustrating

Very nice HOG: the games are actually challenging and more fun than your standard super easy HOGs. It makes it one of the better search and find games out there, at least when it comes to the HOG scenes. I bought it on sale, which is a fair price for completing the game in an hour or 3-4. + Nice minigames that you actually have to think about (no three clicks and the puzzle is solved kinda moments) + Higher quality HOG scenes than most in its genre + The story isn't anything to write home about, but at least its not vague or convoluted + Not a lot of backtracking + No annoying voiceacting + Decent artstyle - Sometimes you clicked an object multiple times and it turns out to be correct, but the hitbox was just very small/specific - No bonus chapter/not long enough playtime; I would have liked more - Per location there are about 3 'sub' locations. Maybe this is a matter of taste, but I like games where the map is a bit larger so there is more to search in terms of "where does this puzzle piece fit"; this game is really straightforward and even tells you in a small text window "look for 3 shards" for example.

I can't really recommend this one. I got it cheap in a bundle but even so, it wasn't enjoyable and I don't feel it's really worth the time to play it. The story is not particularly good, and as another reviewer said your actions often don't really seem to fit with the narrative. It just feels odd. The graphics are pretty bad, some of the hidden objects disappear into the background almost completely and are extremely difficult to see. Some things are also poorly named, for example a "barbecue" was actually a kebab/kabob (skewer with meat and veg), a "clock" was an hourglass, a "hank" was a spool of thread or twine. I played it just because it was part of the bundle, but I was very disappointed.

tres bon jeu

Nette Unterhaltung

I've completed the game in 10 hours. It was fun and I enjoyed it very much. A little bit annoying was the fact, that you can't release items by clicking the right mouse button, instead of that you have to drag it into the inventory at the bottom. But hey, for 0,99€ it's more than OK.

Yes.
