  I'm not much for hidden objects games. This is similar to a lot of the Big Fish games. I bought it hoping there would be some puzzles to work with, but there are very few puzzles, if they can be called that. I finished the first of 5 treasures within an hour, so I imagine the whole game will only take a few hours. Some of the things that make the objects difficult are the scenes/colors of the object and knowing what their definition of the object is. The trailer shows two of the "puzzles," so if you do not want to get the answers spoiled, don't watch it!! Hopefully you read the comment before watching the video. The voice acting could be much better. Unfortunately, there are weird pauses and it seems like the voice actors were just reading off the page and not so much acting. If you like the hidden object genre and don't care too much for the puzzles, this is a pretty good buy currently at $1.25. Note: I was playing on a touch screen, I didn't realize that if you hover the mouse around the scene, some objects will show a cog that you need to interact with and make this a lot easier.

  Got for the nostalgia, plus I never got to see the ending as a little kid. Made me happy to complete a little part of my childhood. For anyone who wants to buy this though, I would wait for it to go on sale like I did. If you have the time, the game could take maybe an hour and a half (My gameplay took multiple days because I wanted the experience to last longer)? If you like simple hidden objects games, check this one out on sale, otherwise, it's not worth it. Tldr: Only buy this on sale if you like quick hidden object games.

  This is a pretty easy hidden object game with rather basic graphics. For what it is... it's not bad. I bought it for $1.24 when it was 75% off. I wouldn't pay anymore than that to be honest. I do recommend a play if you can get it for cheap and like hidden object games.

  There's several good hidden object games out there, but I wouldn't say this is one of them. pro's: * plenty of objects * scenes sometimes require interaction * geocache (described object not in the list) * has a story (although minor) * possibility to go back to scenes to find additional items and geocaches you missed con's: * the quality of the graphics makes it very hard to spot some of the objects. * the blending of shadows of objects you need to find into backgrounds makes it extremely hard to find them * there's some objects only 25% of is visible in the screen. Basicaly I would not recommend this game, sale or no sale. The interaction has potential, but graphics are an essential part of a Hidden Object game, especialy if you're only showing partial objects or trying to blend them in with the background.

  I like hidden object games, but can't recommend this one. I got this one on sale for 49 cents, and I guess it's worth that, but it's not really enjoyable. (I made a new category in Steam called "don't play again".) It's difficult to see many of the items - not because I suck at spotting things, but because the graphics suck. In some cases I end up clicking everywhere on the screen because I just cannot see what I'm supposed to be looking for. (And there are some issues with what they call some things, but that's a minor issue.) Escape the Museum was more enjoyable.

  This is one of those games that's good enough to make me wish it was better. I like the overall concept -- an Indiana Jones style trek across the globe in search of historic lost treasures. The music is nice, and the nerdy middle-aged female protaganist is an interesting character. Unfortunately there isn't much to the gameplay besides the hidden object scenes, and they are poorly done. Many of the scenes are low-res, dark, and muddy, and I could not see half of the hidden objects even when the item finder was hovering right on top of them. In fact without frequent use of the finder I would not have been able to complete the game at all, and to me it is a mark of a bad game when its core mechanic (in this case finding hidden objects) is broken. So although I appreciate what this game was trying to do, I must regretfully give it thumbs down.

  I remember enjoying Escape The Museum, the previous game, where the heroin was stuck in her museum with her daughter after a violent earthquake. Here, Susan is contacted by a mysterious man that will trigger a trip all around the world. Adventure Chronicles is belonging to what I call the early era of hidden objects games, in other words, where you're cleaning scenes by finding items on a list. So don't expect a game where you're roaming around and solving puzzles. However, the game adds some elements like items you need to dust/find in broken containers/behind burnable stuff. In other words, you'll have a lighter, an hammer and a brush to help you. Other items will need specific ones that will be used only in the scene. There is also a "geocache" object to discover, with a riddle describing it. While the game can be finished quickly, if you want a 100%, you're free to come back a second time in the scenes to find another list. It's a nice way to invite you to play it completely. However, keep in mind that some objects are little in size or so well hidden that you can't see them without a proper orientation of your screen. This is the main problem with these games from the first era and Adventure Chronicles doesn't escape from that. The backgrounds are correct and the soundtrack is also nice. That said, Adventure Chronicles, while I love it as I've played a retail version of it years ago, right now, in 2015, should mainly enjoy the hardcore fans - as the genre headed towards an adventure oriented mechanics and that new fans will be probably disappointed and be bored quickly.

  I much prefer this type of Hidden Object game to the newer ones, that are more adventure-lite, having a minimum of HO scenes, lots of wandering around and doing mini games. This is the classic Hidden Object Game, where there are no mini games and only HO scenes. Storywise it's on par with all the others in that it's basically a lot of nonsense. The graphics really shows the game's age though, and it will probably keep a lot of people away, as it's really low-res and grainy. Still, that didn't stop me from enjoying the game.

  This isn\'t a bad game as long as you realize that it\'s the older style of game. By that, I mean it\'s exclusively hidden object scenes held together by a tenuous plot. If you enjoy HO scenes and aren\'t put off by the lack of flourishes that most modern games of this genre have in plenty, you\'ll probably like this. While I prefer the newer games with more plot, puzzles, achievements, and extras, I did enjoy this. The addition of tools to help find certain items (an archaeology brush, a hammer, etc.) and some very minor inventory management added some variety. When I say \"minor\" however, I do mean that; the extent of inventory interaction doesn\'t go much farther than \"pick up a shovel and then dig a hole with it\" sorts of things. Overall, with four hours of playtime (give or take, depending on if you go back to \"master\" scenes) and at only $4.99, this is a decent buy for people that like old-school \"cluttered room\" types of hidden object games.

  I didn't want to play this after the disaster that was the first game "Escape The Musuem," but I'm glad I finally found the courage. AC: The Search for Lost Treasure is sequel that fixed everything that was wrong with one of the worst HOGs I've ever played (Escape the Museum). The clutter is gone, the HO scenes are 100% graphically improved allowing you to actually recognise the objects you are supposed to find, there isn't as much pixel hunting, and you don't have to revisit the same HO scenes over and over again. (Sometimes up to 4 times in the original) It's not a great game, but it's enjoyable enough to keep you playing as you globe trot to locate famous treasures. The only negative I have is that the main character is supposedly an archaeologist and you spend most scenes destroying and desecrating historical artifacts in order to find the treasure! Overall. If you've played the terrible "Escape the Museum" and have been avoiding this game as a result, don't, it's safe!
