Hi,

The game took awhile to download and opened quickly. It looked typical of hogs etc. Have only played a few levels so far, but I like it. Not totally sure why yet. It can be difficult to find the items, sort of a blur and small, but able to find all and or use the one hint. It says its timed, but have had plenty of time thus far. I think I like the two games, first hog, then matching. Not sure if more to it. The story is typical, but have not gone that far to tell. As far as can see its a story to keep playing levels until you discover whys and wherefores!
Thank you for another great game!!

Also, I did download one last week and hadn't time to play, not sure if can go back in and review.

and, wanted to say how sorry I am for your losses last week, WhiteRabbit! Condolences to you and your family.

Easy fast download + install; registers right away. I love this kind of game. Many thanks!!

I have tried installing this 3 times (downloaded twice). I get an unknown error asking me to send error message to Microsoft. This is a Win 7 computer and have not had any problems with other Play CIty games.

Installed and plays fine on win10. I enjoy HOG's so this was a definate download for me. Thanks MyPlayCity and GOTD!

Tried to install message says giveaway over. I get same message last three games I tried to install.

Jewel Quest Mysteries: Trail of the Midnight Heart
A MPC HOG game that is another one in the series, downloaded and installed well on Win 10 Pro x64 like usual from MPC :) As HOG's are not my usual genre these comments mostly come from my daughter, who is the pro when it comes to them, and she stated that it plays pretty well, but many items that you need to find don't make sense to the storyline, although she did like the Match 3 games that you encounter in the game.
Nice scenery and graphics, but overall didn't capture her interest like some of the genre, and I don't know if we'll keep this over time, although will keep it around to see how she likes it when she plays it again ;)
But fans of HOG games should definitely check this out, as the thoughts above are only our impression of it.
A big thank you as always to GGAOTD and MPC for these games!

And a note to WR that our prayers are with you on these emotional and trying days, may you and your family have peace and comfort at this time.

I would really like to play this game but once more, it cannot be installed due to corrupted setup files. I have lost out on multiple giveaways for the past several months due to corrupted installation files. I have even disabled my security software and downloaded the programs in Safe Mode with networking: same problem. GOTD-what gives? Needless to say I am really miffed and this problem needs to be addressed immediately. I am losing out on things I would like to have through no fault of my own. And FYI, I have never had this problem with similar sites such as Shareware on Sale.

Hey Wabbit,
Glad you made it to your sister's house. Just know we will be thinking of you as you go through this time of sorrow.

You know how I feel about HOGs..so..Here are some places to get free Steam keys...They are posted in the forum.

Thanks to MPC and GGOTD for the game. And thanks to Mav and That Wrascally Wabbit for the reviews.

Now stop worrying about us, Wabbit, We are grownups(Well, some of us are) and can fend for ourselves. Just spend some time with the family. You need it. We will be here when you get back.

Huggles to you and all your family!

game is not installing. I click on Setup.exe, it says then, that the game is activated, but it is nowhere. It doesn't even ask me, in which folder I can install the game.
please help!

Downloaded ,Installed/Activated with no problems on my Win10x64 machine using Edge as my browser. Not my favorite type of game but its well worth it if it is your type. Beautiful graphics. Only played the first level so my review will be short, but I assume the rest of the game is similar to what I've seen so far. As mentioned there's no relaxed mode, at least that I can find anyway. Some of the hidden objects are quite hard to find, at least for me. In my opinion the object you're looking for shouldn't be exactly the same color as the background you're looking for it on. Some contrast , even a little would be helpful. Of course , maybe my old eyes are to blame.

My Play City has some excellent games but you need to pay attention when downloading/installing. Uncheck the boxes so your browser won't be changed etc. Hey MyPlayCity ....... Mega World Smash!!! For inexpensive games of these types MyPlayCity is now my "go to" site anymore. I have bitten the bullet and gotten a Steam account as well as a GOG account. Well HAD to get a GOG account when I bought The Witcher 3, but these places are NOT as bad as I once thought, and you can get some nice games for very little money if you keep your eyes open. No I'm not shilling for these sites either, just my opinion.

Anyway, if HOG's are your thing you could do a lot worse than todays offering. No real feedback for the developer other than maybe a tad more contrast in some of the screens/objects.

I only played the game for 45 minutes or so, but I enjoyed it. The objects aren't impossible to find and there are coins and jewels to find that enable the purchase of power-ups and points. So far it's not very difficult, which is good for me, but I assume it will get harder as levels proceed.

Great game--thanks again GGOTD team!

Should find another install wrapper that doesn't trip the AVs.

Was happy to see what looked like a good HOG/Adventure game (my favorite genre) combined with Match 3 (also a fave), and downloaded (albeit slow for so early in the morning) and installed fine on Win 8.1. Was distressed to see it open in a non-full screen format, so checked the Options to make sure 'fullscreen' was selected (it was). VERY disappointed, as the playing field is WAY too small (and I'm not on a huge resolution for modern monitors---1980x1080). In this day and age, how can they release a game that can't be played at fullscreen on normal resolutions?

No real story, just frequent HOGs interspersed with Match 3s. No other puzzles that I can tell so far. The Match 3s don't even let you drag, so have to click to swap which takes extra time.

While I would still give a HOG with Match 3s a basically thumbs up, the inability to play full screen, coupled with the aforementioned difficulty of seeing items in the HOGs anyway, makes this one more annoying than pleasurable so far. Will play it through if I get bored (something's better than nothing :)), but not gonna be a fave.

Sorry to hear about your loss. I will keep you in my prayers. I think this will be one of my favorite games. Just now downloaded. I will try it out tonight after a busy day. Thank you and the team and MPC for all the free games. May GOD bless you and your family for your loss.

After Jewel Quest (7 Match 3 titles) Jewel Quest Solitaire (3 Match 3 / Solitaire cards combination) iWin decided they took Jewel Quest into the realm of the HoG. Of course again combined with the Match 3 objectives. This is the second title in a series of 4. Jewel quest fans can also find their Jewel Quest fix on Mobile (5 titles) and Consoles (1 XBOX360, 1 Wii and 4 DS titles)

The game has no relaxed mode. Download and install went quickly on my Win 10 64bit.
You will have a set amount of time to do a few levels of Hidden Object to collect board pieces for the Match 3 objectives. Game started out with 16 minutes for 2 different levels. When you miss click 3 times in a row 30 seconds will be deducted off your time. When time is up it is game over. No continue from last point until the Match 3 level is done. Throughout the levels hidden gems and gold coins can be found for extra hints and help. Tools are also laying around and can be used to uncover gems and board pieces.

Items can be hard to find, especially for those with high resolutions. Many similar colors can cause items to blend a bit to much with the background. The limited amount of hints can make finding everything in time a challenge.

The story is there as a vehicle to move along the levels, the same yadayada as in most of these games. Something and/or someone has gone lost, we need to discover what happened.

Graphics are of the usual Jewel Quest standard. Bright and colorful but sometimes things blend too much with the background.
Sound: Also familiar to those who play the jewel quest games. "jungle music" that is interesting for five minutes after which it best can be switched off and replaced by your favorite tunes from your own library

Compared to other Jewel Quest games this is perfect in line with one can expect from this franchise, 8/10

Thanks Mavadelo. This will be the last comment moderated. Been using my sisters computer for longer that I promised. Got to go.

I love HOGs, but not too sure about this one. The objects can be quite hard to find as the pictures are rather indistinct, and sometimes when you click on one slightly on the edge it will give you a time penalty, which is irritating. I dislike timed games anyway - and this one does not have the option to turn off the timer and play in a relaxed mode. So it's not one of my favourites, but still useful to pass a bit of spare time. Thanks GGOTD.

Thanks Fran

I download and install the game but I get third-party advertising and browser add-ons!. You tell that it isn't but I notice before that my play city
install game with the advertising and so on.

Hello Fea

My sister has let me install the game on her computer (I'm away from home at the moment) and as with all MyPlayCity (MPC) games that we have been given here, the initial window that usually shows three check-boxes (if you downloaded the game directly from MPC) has been disable and no browser add-ons were added. I don't know how they could have been added to your browser if you installed directly from the giveaway version becasue they have been removed. Have you installed any games directly from MyPlayCity recently? That could explain why you have add-ons. As for the advertising, it only shows at the beginning when the game is installing and is totally innocuous, plus, when you close any MyPlayCity game down your browser is opened to the MyPlayCity home page. The reason for this is that MPC earn cash whenever your browser is opened to the MPC home page, part of which is paid to the developer of the game you have installed. Add=ons are easily removed from your browser. Though each browser does have slightly different ways of doing it. you should find details of how to remove add-ons HERE

Yes another hidden objects game.
Thank you a lot for my favourite kind of game.
