NEW hidden object game! Agatha Christie: Peril at End House
It’s a good day in paradise! Big Fish Games has released a new, exclusive hidden object game to their Game Club members. Agatha Christie: Peril at End House, in the same vein as Agatha Christie: Death on the Nile, follows Hercule Poirot on an investigation. You, the player, collect clues for him as you move through various scenarios. Just a couple of quick screen shots and comments for now. Darn it, I have to go look for bugs in about an hour and I haven’t even had a shower yet.
The artwork is once again stunning. Hidden objects are cleverly but fairly concealed. You’ll have to work up a bit of a sweat finding some of them, but everything (so far - I’ve only played a few screens) is do-able.
Some of the screens require you to perform an action (move things around) before you can claim the objects you’ve found. In the first gameplay screen (above) you must find keys and insert each into the proper box before they are marked off of your list of items.
I’ve only played for about twenty minutes (blast having to work for a living!) so I can’t do much of an evaluation of the game yet, but I like what I see so far. You can only get this game by becoming a Big Fish Game Club member, but membership will give you up to 65% off on the price of any games you purchase. Well, duh! If you’re a hidden object game fan, why wouldn’t you?

You know you love hidden object games as much as I do Val! I wanted to push the review out in a hurry since many folks will be away from their computers for the holiday. Needed to let them know there was another option to the Macy’s parade & football for their after-turkey leisure time.
Mahalo for the link. I still haven’t posted my own good stuff for this week. Gotta get busy!

the flower shop room stumped me. I could not figure out which vase to place the 5 roses in.

Lol! I remember having some confusion with that, too, Lally. Still, a little frustration just maks the game more challenging in the end, doesn’t it? Enjoy!
