Lots of levels ... not too hard
There are volume controls for music & sound effects.
There are 32 levels, you need to find 16 amulet parts, there are 9 wizard traps (puzzles) and 3 bonus levels (shoot the wizard clones).
There were no voice overs and quite a bit of reading, although you can skip those scenes.
The puzzles encountered in the demo were not too difficult.
The hidden object scenes were pretty cluttered and a bit fuzzy. Quite a few of the objects were at the very bottom of the scene and you could only see the top. We did use the hints and they took a while to refill. Also, there seemed to be more than one object of the same type. If you were looking for a pair of glasses, you might see a couple different pair, but only one was right.
We only played for about 45 minutes and finished 10 levels, 3 puzzles and 1 bonus round. I think we found 6 out of 16 amulet pieces.
The game was fun, but was quite a strain on the eyes. We will not be purchasing, but try the demo. You may like it.

Poor quality
I read the story line and thought this might be an interesting game as I love 'urban style' fantasy.
Unfortunately I could not get myself to continue playing the game as the graphic is awful. The fuzzy HOG scenery was just a negative distraction and very straining on the eyes, that it just put me off the game.

Poor Artwork and Storyline Make For Disappointing Game
Poor artwork with fuzzy graphics (this is not a performance issue). HOS have little or nothing to do with the story line. "Assistant" Character dialogue is unnecessarily drawn out, requiring constant clicking to get through. The storyline, what there is of it, is derivative and uninteresting

Corny?......Yes, but fun!!!
Yes the game is somewhat corny & yes the HOS are hard to find, but you just have to sit back, relax, take your hand off the mouse & look!!!.....You'd be surprised at how many of them start jumping out at you......I really enjoyed this game....It was a lot of fun & different than the dreary dark ones I've been playing..(although I like those too)....The graphics were very clear on my computer & I love the unlimited hints, that is always a plus....Not being able to find the HOS right away is the challenge to this game & it makes it last longer....Thanks BFG & devs for bringing us these simple & fun games lately......I'm having a blast playing them!!!.....I highly recommend this game just for the simplicity & fun factor......

how did this one sneak in, big fish?
in this hidden object game, you are a detective who helps the local police to find an evildoer.
storyline: they tell me this game has a story, but in my opinion, the story is the most perplexingly hidden object of all in this hidden object game.
graphics: poorly rendered. the supposedly untouched crime scenes resembled a junk pile to my eye. further, few of the objects that are pictured have anything to do with the story, and few of the objects that you have to search for have anything to do with the story development.
puzzles and mini-games: described as 'tricky" but i merely found them annoying.
music/audio: there's just two soundtracks, and both are awful and annoyingly repetitive. worse, i could hear a man yelling in the background for one of the music tracks -- poor taste if this shouting was intentional, otherwise, a lack of professionalism if this shouting was unintentional.
my interaction: one hour demo.
in short, i doubt anyone will enjoy this game, and i do not recommend it.

This game gives bad name to the family of HO games.
Stay away from it if possible. I played like 10 minutes of the demo and was wondering why someone even bothered creating this game. I uninstalled this game never to look back. The graphics are low quality, to find the items is hard not because eye sight issues but because they are small and not well defined some of them even hide in the bottom of the screen I just clicked away hoping I hit something. The hint takes forever to recharge and the plot wasn't all that impressive. This game looks very amateurish and nothing in it made me wanna own this game.

well I liked it!
I read other views and have to disagree, I found this game better than a host of other HOG I've played. So what if the objects are very well hidden.....it's in the name.

Waste of time
Got about 15 minutes into it and, while it's all hidden object, the targets are too small and the hint recharge is too slow. If you enjoy hidden object with no real story and no apparent let up to searching for minutia, this is the one for you.

I wanted to like this game...But...
Unfortunately, some of the HOs were microscopic/ blended/ indistinguishable, and there were several of a list item in the scene, but only a specific one is needed. Thankfully there is no multi click penalty. The HOS are junk piles for the most part, and some items were only slivers waaaaaay at the bottom of the screen. Headache inducing microscopic HOGs like this, and timed games are the only games I will not purchase, not even for the DD.
The graphics and sound were not the greatest, and the story line didn't really capture my interest. The puzzles and mini games were easy enough, and different. The hint recharges at a reasonable rate, and the dialog can be skipped, for those who don't want to read a book. This is a very linear game, with no exploring. Always try before you buy!

This game has an interesting story line, I usually enjoy playing this type of game this one frustrated me. The items to find were not clear in the pictures, many of the items were at the very edge or just a sliver of the object shows up, the hint refill is so slow I could nap and still wake up before it refills, they try to cram too many items into the pictures! Frustration is the word that best describes this game.
