Hidden object games are great but can be tricky to find some items. Some hidden object games are definitely harder than others, and it does seem the some objects are recycled from game to game. Still they are fun, and some times having a familiarity with objects from another game can be a real benefit.

Some words have two meanings and can be tricky when trying to find exactly what they mean. It’s pretty easy to find a pocket watch but a bat could either be a bat, creature of the night, or a baseball bat. If I don’t spot those while searching, I save it for last as I’m sure using a hint will point me in the right direction for that object.

I find that playing hidden object games on my laptop is much harder than playing on the PC. I think it has to do with the screen as if you’re not looking at it at a certain angle, some areas are too dark to spot anything, especially dark games like Ravenhearst.

My favorite is still Big City Adventure San Francisco as it was challenging yet fun. What’s your favorite hidden object game or tip for playing?
