Avoid Being a Fashion Victim in: Masters of Mystery – Crime of Fashion

Published

on June 3, 2009

in For Kids & Teens, For Parents & Teachers, Game Reviews and Reviews

Time is of the essence in this game of fashion, intrigue and criminal activity as you race against the clock to solve the mysteries of treachery since in each scene, you are only allowed a maximum of ten minutes to collect all of the items required.

There may be as few as ten or as many as thirty objects to locate in a scene and should you fail to find all of them in the time allowed, then you are required to start the search of the scene over again only this time with a whole new set of objects on your list.

Within each scene there may be more than meets the eye, as in some cases there may be a scene within a scene in which you must explore to find the clue. This will be discovered as you run your cursor over a particular area and a blue question mark appears, indicating you should investigate that area in more detail.

As with many of the hidden object games, on occasion you’ll need to move one object that’s not on your list to find the one that you are looking for. It is also not uncommon to have items on your list that have more than one meaning. An example of this would a chain; which could be anything from a gold necklace to a chain for a bicycle.

If you should you get stuck during any part of the game you can always click on the hint button, which will form a temporary circle around one of the object you are looking for. Use the hints sparingly since you are only allowed one every twenty-five seconds.

As with most occupations there is a list of tools that you must keep handy in order to do your job successfully and as a detective, your bag of goodies will include; a flashlight which of course is helpful in searching for objects in low light conditions, a magnifying glass, fingerprint duster and a UV light that will allow you to uncover blood evidence at the scene of the crime along with a kit to save this evidence as well.

Once you’ve figured out how to use all of your evidence collecting equipment you will be able to investigate any of the crime scenes in the game and compare your findings against the criminal database and start rounding up the suspects and put them behind bars, which has never been fashionable!

Go West with Cate West: The Vanishing Files

Published

on June 2, 2009

in For Kids & Teens, For Parents & Teachers, Game Reviews and Reviews

If you are like so many gamers these days, you have found hidden object games to be some of the most interesting on the market. Live vicariously through the character Cate West, a woman who possesses extra-sensory perception allowing her the ability to solve for complex investigations assisting the police in their most challenging cases.

As you work along-side Cate you’ll find it challenging to uncover the 1000+ clues among the 57 background scenes designed for the Wii platform as well as direct download to your PC.

You have the option of playing in either the normal mode (where you race against the clock) or the relaxed mode, where time is not a factor in the game but are awarded bonus point for solving clues early.

There are a total of five different investigative methods in all that are used to solve the cases. You begin with assisting the detectives by gathering as much information about a particular case as possible before even visiting the crime scene.

This game is often different from some of the hidden object and matching game since at times; instead of just being given a list to work from, there will often be a simple riddle that will determine the object in question.

Your investigations will lead to the hide-out of the perpetrators and from there your clairvoyant powers will come into play as a couple of clues will pinpoint the accused from the list of subjects. These clues will often be in the form of an object or a number or something else that may seem completely arbitrary to anyone else.

The accused then stands trial and with all the admissible evidence, either an acquittal or a conviction will be decided by the court of law. As Cate West all you can do is lead the detectives in the right direction from there the evidence they obtain is what really counts in putting away the bad guy or gal.
