This one is actually very good. Some minigames repeat themself, otherwise it is a very good hidden object game.
Recommended, but only if you get it on sale.
This is a pretty standard hidden object adventure. It's a bit more focused on searching each location and solving some puzzles with the occasional hidden object scene. All are done pretty well, with nice graphics and an mildly interesting story. It's way too short for the asking price, so best to wait for a deep discount.
DEVELOPER is to lazy to fix any bugs doesnt care about their games
the art is amazing. gameplay is solid.
Fairly good hidden-object game, with relatively smooth gameplay, typical but intuitive puzzles (mostly), HO scenes of various modes (search by objects name or silhouette), nice graphics and music, and not a bad voiceover. Gameplay will likely last only an hour or two as the game is really not difficult, but newly added achievements may add to some replayability as you need to finish the game at least twice to get all of them. Good for avid HOG players to add to their collection.
Has trading cards but the store page doesn't mention it for some reason.
Some parts are a bit funky with controls. Mobile port maybe? The game came out in 2014 for Steam and still has no achievements, so it's unlikely to ever get them. So feel free to use the skip and hint buttons willy-nilly.
It's not worth $15. (IMO almost no HOG are worth $10+). Get it as a part of a bundle or on sale.
Very quick game. No bugs etc. Shame there are no Steam achievements.
Works on Win 11. Wonderful HOPA. Music, acting, artwork,story that ties together.One of the good ones.
I got a lot of games by this studio over the holiday, and this one contained all the things I dislike about said studio. Flashing light effects in the hidden object scenes, for example. I'm photosensitive so it gives me instant headaches and obscures the already murky graphics of the search area, though maybe that is why they did it.
Said murky graphics and reusing items and even artwork from other games. It felt like they wanted a new title and just dug through stuff they hadn't used for a while.
I'd noticed I wasn't playing it much and blamed my hectic schedule, but this one was a disappointment. I'm not going to suffer the literal headaches that light effect causes me to finish, so it's just sunk cost at this point. I don't think I'll be buying anything else from this studio again for that reason.
This game looks beautiful and some work went into it. The majority of the puzzles were hard and I had to cheat for one of them. The hidden object games are challenging and this is actually worth a couple of bucks. Some of the games were actually weird for a hidden object game, like bejewelled and clicking on objects. It was definitely unique.
Took me just over 4hrs.

cons
- game short
- dull voice acting
- there are some boss fights and i think they are quite tedious
- lot of the puzzles confusing or plain boring
- jigsaw and slider types mini games frustrating. i directly skipped them
- there are no steam achievements
- it looks like game contains cards but they didn't drop to me
- there are no bonus chapter and extra contents
to be honest I did not enjoy this game very much, but that does not mean that you will not enjoy it either. it's not a bad game so i give thumbs up for this game.
One of the best hidden object games i have ever played.
I give this game a solid "meh" rating. It was a decent point and click, long enough, and decently animated, but the story was meh, the voicing was meh, and the mini games were less than meh - I even skipped some "boss battles" which I almost never do, but even with the instructions I could not figure out what I was supposed to be doing or if I was doing it right. There was a health bar for the enemy, but it simple vacilated between full and empty and offered no guidance. Worst of all this game has achievements, but not steam achievements. It could not be that hard to put steam achievements in a game that already has achievements. This made me more likely to skip and use hints. so 5/10. meh.
this is one of the best and confusing game i've ever played, it is a joy to know these kind of games are still made, keep on making these type of games and you can't go wrong. please keep it going.
Even though the story is generally interesting and the graphics, music, and voices are good, and most of the puzzles and hidden object scenes are fun, I can't recommend this game because some "twitch" parts of the game are extremely difficult to do with a mouse (which makes me think this was a phone game). For example, the sliding thorns puzzle is excruciatingly difficult with a mouse and the fight scenes with the thieves are very difficult. I also didn't like the hidden object puzzle that kept getting obscured with darkness every few seconds requiring me to click three times to clear it up before finding a couple of more objects before it obscured again. Plus, I didn't like the Simon-like follow the bells sequence where bells switched position after showing me the sequence. (I hate Simon-style games.) On top of all that, there are a few HO puzzle clues that are bad, such as "pitchfork" where you have to click on an ash shovel that is labeled as a "fire poker". The best thing about this game is that the map is really useful because you'll need it to figure out where to go next because a lot of the time it is non-obvious.

The Game Review
Game Visuals
I want to mention that the visuals in the game are nicely done. The visuals can be adjusted in the game's option menu.
Game Audio
I want to mention that audio for the game is well done. Even though the audio is somewhat simplistic and repetitive. The audio can be adjusted in the game's option menu as well.
Gameplay
There are four different difficulty game modes to choose from: Novice; Adventure; Challenge and Custom.
The notebook keeps track of progression in the game. Such as story events and clues.
There is a padlock feature that is available to lock the inventory panel in place to make it stationary.
There is an interactive map in the game. It allows the player to fast travel between each location quickly without having the need to constantly backtracking. It also indicates that there are a variety of tasks that can be completed at various locations within the game. The interactive map is automatically given at the start of the game.
The hidden object scenes consist of the following: Shadow items; Traditional word lists and Riddle items. Some of these hidden objects may require little or no interaction.
The puzzles are fairly easy to solve without having the need to skip any of them.
There are two sets of collectibles in the game: Cross and Talisman. They are scattered throughout the game for the player to find.
There are twelve different achievements that can be unlocked from playing the game. Each of these achievements does come with some requirements that need to be completed before they can be unlocked. These achievements are in-game only.
Miscellaneous
Final thoughts: I have found the game enjoyable to a certain extent. The replay value for the game is low. I would recommend this game, but not at the game's full price value.
I really enjoyed playing this and completely agree with the other reviewers about the voice acting, music and graphics being surprisingly well done. I liked the map functionality that showed places that had actions that you could take (including HO puzzles) and would allow you to go directly there. Given that there were in-game achievements and collectibles, my only wish is that they would add steam achievements and trading cards...
I had so much fun playing this game. Great story line, good graphics and sound. The hidden object games were a lot of fun and the mini-games were challenging. Well worth the money.
I loved this game. Immersive, with a storyline that added just enough purpose without being intrusive (I hate games that have tons of dialogue). The animation is beautiful, a cross between cartoony and realistic. It was generally clear what to do with objects and how to progress. The mini-games were great, too -- it has the traditional mix of create-a-pathway, do a puzzle, follow the pattern, etc. but has some different twists. Just challenging enough to make me work, but not enough that I gave up or resorted to the walkthrough (okay, I did that once, but because I missed a hot spot...my only complaint is that the "hot spot" areas are very big, like an entire wall -- so if there are two close together, you might not find the second one because you're thinking, "that magnifiying glass will give me the same close-up I've gotten 10 times already, so what's the point?" but that's minor). I liked that you could customize your difficultly level. Unexpectedly, this HOG/Adventure game has four "boss" levels where you have to mix speed, accuracy, and problem-solving. Definitely got my heartrate up! Decent length, too. And the first thing I did when I finished it was to look for other games from Cateia!
I was expecting the usual from a hidden-object point-and-click: baffling plot twists, bizarre game logic, and as much amusement in explaining what was going on to my friends as I got from playing it.
What I got was an artistically pretty game with an excellent soundtrack compared to others in the genre and a tight, forward-moving plot. The areas were well done, it actually felt like something was at stake in the game. I had to skip some of the puzzles because the controls were a bit wonky, but it's a small quibble for something that was otherwise quite fun.
...is there some rule I don't know about that a casual HO game must contain two pieces of flint that start a fire? If all you needed was moving flint, mountain ranges would be spontaneously combusting death traps. Oh, well. Recommended.
A very good hidden object game with challenging puzzles, neat characters, good voice acting, and a clear and engaging central story line. Will be looking for more games from this Croatian developer. Looks like Artifex Mundi has some competition!
