If you’re stuck, however, you can click the Hint button to reveal a hidden item, but you’ll need to wait a few minutes before it’s fully replenished to use again, if need be. There is no timer, so you can relax as you click around the environment, and you’re not penalized for clicking incorrectly too many times. Sometimes you won’t be able to find the item you need until you look inside another object on the screen (such as a panel under the floorboards or hidden in a birdhouse) or you might need to solve another puzzle on the screen to get the last item you need for the first puzzle there might be up to six different puzzles to solve in one scene (each with up to five items). Instead your mouse will glitter over an object, such as a basket, and when you click the mouse you’ll see silhouettes of a few items you need to find that belong in there (such as scissors, ball, teddy bear and a broom) and a large circle where you’re supposed to drag and drop the item.
Unlike most hidden object games, there is no list of items to find on the screen. In order to become accustomed to this unique interface, the game begins in Emily’s room, where you’re asked to put away items (such as clothes and toys).
The story - about a young girl and her brother unravelling family secrets and finding hidden treasure - might sound trite and overdone - but the way it’s told from Emily’s perspective, coupled with beautifully animated storyboard sequences, helps give purpose to your seek-and-find exercises. With its charming story, high production values and adventure game-like puzzles, Treasure Seekers: Visions of Gold is one of the better ones available today. Not all hidden object games are created equal.
