Exorcist Deserved More Attention Than it Got
I must say I'm a bit surprised that I didn't see more of a buzz when this was first released.
Exorcist is an interactive hidden object game with an interesting story and nice graphics. The voice overs are very well done, and I love the font (style of writing) they chose to use during the cut scenes.
The hidden objects are all story-appropriate, and some are devilishly hidden. Impossible? Not enough that I was totally frustrated. Definitely difficult to find sometimes, though. Find items on a list, occasionally by sketch (more than a silhouette, but not quite a picture of the item). Puzzles and interaction throughout.
This game isn't as straightforward as some IHOG's. You have to figure out what you're supposed to be doing sometimes, and I like that - makes you think. Once you get the hang of what the developers are trying to do, it gets easier and more intuitive.
Formulaic in that you skip between three scenes, then move on to a set of three new scenes. Movement is done via clicking on a picture of the location you wish to go to or by using the "footsteps" cursor.
Something different that makes you think, nice environmental combination of graphics and sound effects and eerie without being disturbing. A solid thumbs up from me. I purchased after the first chapter and enjoyed it all the way through to the end.

lost interest quickly
to many hidden objects. It was so dark it was hard to find alot of them. Lost interest in the game quickly due that it took forever to do one area.

Dark & Spooky Fun
This is a very scary hidden object game, in a fun way . . . ! The story line is fairly linear, with an interesting grand finish . . . There are various types of hidden object scenes, including straight search & find from a list (word or picture), as well as fragmented objects that are pieced together to interact with the current scene, or to help unlock hidden objects in other places . . . These fragmented objects, at times, help to solve puzzles, which, for the most part, are all of moderate difficulty, & can be skipped after a time interval . . .
My only complaint is that the graphics are at times dark, as befits the theme of the story line, which makes finding some objects difficult . . .
All in all, with a fairly good hint system, this a cool game to play . . .

Fantasy Hidden Object Game
The objects were not hidden very well, the puzzles were not very interesting and the excitement level was extremely poor.

Frustrating
The plot is a good one but the scenes are so dark that the items to be found disappear into the background. Additionally several items are so close to the edge of a scene that very little shows, enough so it's impossible to tell that the item is the one being sought. There is little direction so you have to skip from one scene to another to find anything and end up having to use the hint button frequently. The game is extremely frustrating.

A-OK
This must be an older game, I tried it out because the new one is releasing tomorrow. The graphics on this game are really pixelated. I only play for a few minutes. It was far to messy. Hope the new one is better.
