Discover the fabulous secrets that a jungle hides in Adelantado Trilogy: Book One! Help the brave and noble officer, Don Diego De Leon, to find and save the lost expedition.
Think of the game The Promised Land, and you will understand this game.
There are two parts, each with 5 chapters. Difficulty levels are: Relaxed, Easy, Normal and Hard. You have to discover territory, save survivors, collect supplies, find treasure, get magic oratory stones to talk to the natives, and collect secret journal pages.
Only downside so far is that you cannot save in the middle of a level or all progress will be lost, and there is not (as of yet discovered) a full island map.
I played for about 45 minutes when I decided to use a game credit and get the game.
I recommend this game!

Margrave: The Blacksmith's Daughter Collector's Edition
Embark on a thrilling rescue mission in the Town of the Cyclops!
This is a continuation of a previous story. Music is soothing, there are lots of puzzles, a navigation map and two hidden object piles that you return to. I was thoroughly entertained.
I recommend this game!

Mystic Legacy: The Great Ring
Uncover the dark legacy hidden within a Romanian castle to save your friend from an evil spirit!
Demo works until you save your friend, puzzles are routine, hidden objects alright, map sort of works to warp - at least you can get close to where you want. Demo's worth a shot.

Gothic Fiction: Dark Saga Collector's Edition
Rescue your daughter, Hannah, from the clutches of an evil witch before it's too late in this chilling Hidden Object adventure game!
But no hidden object games (so far). Different, but easy, puzzles galore, map, strategy guide, pleasant music, and demo has two levels available. I thoroughly enjoyed myself, but a bit GOTHIC, hence the title.
I recommend this game!

Inbetween Land
Your friend, Mary, disappears and it's up to you to save her. Uncover an exotic land with unearthly secrets as you find and help your friend leave the flying island.
Graphics are drawn, but very crisp, mix of Puzzle and Fragmented Hidden Object, but FROG with a puzzle included. For non-frog fans, BIG stuff to find. Journal, no map, fun puzzles, gears, steam pipes, and jigsaws. Hints recharge quickly. I rather enjoyed it. Biggest confusion was the elevator. Go in, change floors, LEAVE! Don't return to floor you were originally on first. Maybe I was still waking up. lol

Storyline
4/ 5
To add to previous review, I found the music suitably creepy for the storyline, and yes, there is a little lag in the text boxes for the beginning of the story, but you can click to speed it up somewhat. I beleive there is more to the story that what I reviewed in my hour of gameplay, but I was exploring quite a bit. No, the puzzles were not hard or spectacularly original, and I did see areas where you could use "special" powers of somekind, but I didn't make it that far in the story. Lesson here... never walk away from a timed game to answer the phone without pausing - darn!
Strategy guide has two chapters in it, so I believe that is the extent of the demo, no map yet, no journal, but you do collect pages for a journal.
Suggestion for players - mouse over everything in the closeup scenes - lots of stuff can be hidden in those.
I liked it.

Eternal Journey: New Atlantis Collector's Edition
Travel from the deepest trenches of the Atlantic Ocean to the awe-inspiring wonders of Mars as you solve the greatest archeological puzzle known to man: the origin of Atlantis.
Wow, didn't see that coming! Story took a 90 degree turn, but I hope the reviewers don't spill the beans on this one. If you plan on playing this game, be someone who enjoys storyline. Without it, you will find the map navigation too easy, and the puzzles meaningless. If you are following the story, the puzzles are part of the plot, and are not overly taxing, but just a fun diversion. Not all HOG items are immediately visible on your list of objects to find, and some items are hidden. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Howlville: The Dark Past
Many years ago, mysterious events separated Rachel and her father. Help find him and save the world from catastrophe!
This time, you've already escaped from the asylum and the game begins there.
LOTS of hidden object items to find, but as previous reviewers have stated, hidden object puzzles are very interactive with mini-games included. Mouse over EVERYTHING! Graphics are great, but not movie quality. Music can be very ominous - especially that Fog horn at the house (shuddering now as I think about it). Hidden objects were easy to see, just tricky to find. Hints have to be earned in the form of lightbulbs, and do not replenish themselves. I never had more than a couple of hints during the trial period.
Worth checking out.

Casual to advanced gameplay, great graphics, mix of HOG and adventure (yes, losts of backtracking), calm music, in game guide and interactive map.
Well done developers!

Infected: The Twin Vaccine Collector’s Edition
A new breed of virus has spread throughout the City of Oxford. You must search the city for a missing girl who holds the key to stopping the global epidemic!
Interesting story concerning a virus, no ghosts or demons, excellent graphics, the new style HOS require that you find items and use them in order to find all objects, fairly easy puzzles so far, and yes, there is some back and forth, but that is to be expected since you are in an abandoned town and you are looking into a mystery!
