Mystery Case Files: Ravenhearst [Game Download] Review

I prefer games where, as another reviewer put it, you wander spooky hallways in search of a mystery - and this is not that. It's just one hidden object game after another, with jigsaw-type puzzles and Rube Goldberg locks that were only occasionally frustrating for me. The graphics were just okay, too. But somehow this game was addictive! I think it's the satisfying noises it makes when you find an object or complete a puzzle. I didn't mind the clock too much (I accidentally chose timed play and there's no way to change it once you start) as I have a wide monitor, but it was frantic at the end trying to complete the last hidden object hunt! I didn't really need that, I don't play these games for the adrenalin rush! Still, not bad, and I got 6.5 hours of entertainment out of it.

One note - I'm using XP, and after beginning this game, other programs would no longer maximize - I could see them in the toolbar but couldn't get the window to pop up, even after I'd finished the game and uninstalled it. I fixed it by, I think, reinstalling one of the programs and restarting - somehow that fixed the rest of them as well. Might be just a problem with my operating system, though.
