Mortimer's homebound journey continues in Mortimer Beckett and the Lost King, the thrilling new chapter from the much beloved and award-winning hidden object series!
Lovely coincidence. I went looking on BF for Mortimer Beckett games a couple of weeks ago - no love. That had me considering joining another game club. So glad to see BF now has several. Thanks. FYI: If you haven't played any Mortimer Beckett give them a try. Nice HOG with the addition of some strategy...how to use what where, etc. Lots of fun.
Good idea but needs lots of work to make it a success: Clues are ridiculous. Help is plentiful but that just makes the game go from absurdly difficult to ridiculously easy. No story line that I could see. Didn't get far in the demo as each level takes a while but didn't capture my interest enough to buy. I didn't listen to the sound. Visual quaility is decent if not very appealing.
I don't recommend this game.

it is still a work in progress. The story lines get a little confusing with multiple quests going on at the same time. Needed items drop with regularity. The HOS scenes are challenging, objects are often moved but the timing is ridiculous. The game gives lots of "specials" to help move the game forward. It is a game easily played for longer periods of time than most other FTP games without spending any money.
