It's an easy going match 3 game. Nice colors and screens. A good choice for a new player to match 3. I wish the tiles were larger, but the game runs fine. The mini games are ady as well.
You’re on a train in the middle of nowhere, and a band of dangerous thieves demand you tell them where to find the Hope Diamond’s shards. As the newest Hidden Expedition recruit, you’ve got to find the shards before they do…
I love the Nat Geo games as a rule, but this one made me crazy!!! Even with the strategy guide right there, I couldn't get out of the first room! I had the necessary inventory The hairpin would not open the door! I tried to use the hairpin in the keyhole as well as tried to remove the bolts in the hinges. Nothing worked.
Who am I is an immersive hidden object adventure of an epic scale! Take the role of an undercover agent investigating strange sci-fi incidents in the city.
The colours are great. Screens are cartoony but clear, yet the whole thing is confusing ! Hidden objects are hidden - I mean to find an object...say a play block, only a tiny corner of the block shows so you need to use the hints all the time! I seldom use hints. I found it most frustrating!
I don't recommend this game.

This game started out well. Color, graphics, HO screens all really nice. I got stuck when I was rebuilding the town square! There was no hint as to what or where I should do or go next and when I went to ;how to play the game, there were about 10 pages of how to use the elements in the game. This game reminded me of "Found" which ended up being very confusing. Areas of the map were "soon to come" so game is not finished yet. I wanted to play further but no blog walkthrough. Will try again later.

OMG...couldn't actually get to a game! Kept trying to by a counter, then it said don't use gold bars, so what do I use and where do i get it??? So frustrating! I couldn't even find an exit, menu key did not work...ugh! I play to relax and have a challenge that won't flummox me....sorry, I'm a big fan of Big City Adventures, Vacation Quest, Amazing Adentures, etc. This, not so much...good graphics gho' very clear and good color, just too confusing. sorry...

Good fun,,,screens are large, colorful and 'clean;' that means that screens are clearly defined, not smoky, faded and bleended...so much easier to play, the mini-games are fun! Just like the old Big City Adventures who have now gone smoky!!! Hope they come out with more in the series!
I love all the Big City games, primarily for their high color, sharp clarity of their found objects and variety of their screens. this game appeared faded, the objects were 'scratchy' and the screens seemed smaller. The side games were more fun than the actual hidden games and these screens needed more variety. Very poor quality indeed. I have every single game. Icompleted it in 2 days. No desire to linger on the cramped, faded pages. Compare for yourself.
I don't recommend this game.
