Midnight Mysteries: Salem Witch Trials

Ναι

This could have been a very decent hidden object game, sadly it has bugged achievements and a long winded rabbit-hole-within-a-rabbit-hole story layout. We, as the players, are set out to uncover the mysteries of the Salem trials and the death of Nathaniel Hawthorne. The HOG segments are good enough, sometimes the objects have dodgy description is all. Atmosphere/settings are charming enough. The game decides to throw the player around between dimensions/timelines and it's done in such a way that it got me disoriented at times. The puzzles are fairly easy, if not we get a lot of hints/ the option to skip anyways. For the bugged achievements there's players complaining about it as far as 2014 and the devs never did anything about it, there's a workaround but that implies that if someone cares about having achievements then they should tamper with the game files. Fortunately, this game doesn't overstay its welcome as it's quite short and doesn't have much replay value unless you missed some achievements/ want to try the alternate play modes. I won it for free, otherwise I can't recommend it unless you manage to get it in a sale/bundle or for free for the issues that it has.

Cool fun game for casual puzzles. Only complaint i got is that the achievments dont work. I completed Story mode and all the easter eggs, yet Steam says i got 0 achievements. Grrrrrrrrr

this game is awesome and historically accurate! i replay over and over i also recommend any Midnight Mysteries games

One of the earlier HOGs that aged badly. There is no narration, the display ratio is like 1024x768 and blown up to fullscreen, it is hard to make out any objects in the search scenes. The puzzle and story presentation is barebon at best. Do yourself a favor and stay away from this HOG.

fun HO game but at times it's confusing on what to do next. Interesting story and some puzzles added to the mix.

Completed the game, achievements do not work

Standard HoG.

The game is good, but for achievements to unlock you have to use the beta version and switch executables, etc. which is bull$#!*.

alot of filler content. the hidden object screens are kinda boring. and the eastereggs also pretty meh. achievments are bugged too.
