Interesting mechanic for the Hidden Object scenes, but with the same mechanic every time, it gets old. Mini-games are generally well done, and the map is an absolute requirement, but the lack of ability to jump to a room via the map is frustrating, particularly in early stages of the games when you have to go back and forth between two wings of the resort at least a half dozen times. The ending was a bit forced.

Hi! The game took awhile to download and opened easily. I am glad to see the trouble with the packet was
added to the read me, hope it helps! The graphics are very good as is the narrative. Of course one activity must be solved to move on with puzzles in between. The hog is a little different, harder to find but can find.
Enjoyed this game more than most of late. Played for a long while and wasn't as bored as with many in this vein. I hope the ending won't be disappointing! Thanks for another great game! Have a good week, Lee.

Firstly, thanks to MPC and Alawar for giving us the chance to obtain today's GGOTD.
I must however agree with the reviewer who said that the storyline in MC:R is hackneyed, and over-complicated. I found myself frankly not caring about the myriad clues, newspaper articles, etc. despite (like the original reviewer) being keen to know how the game ended! And yes, the cut scenes were somewhat robotic (like the parrots!) and would have been better done as static drawings.
The puzzles were as usual from Alawar well thought out and just frustrating enough, but the attempt to "freshen up" the HOG aspect by using only pictures as clues (instead of the usual text like "Hat," "Drill," etc.) was not my favourite. At least it wasn't a literal so-called "silhouette hunt" where literally only the outlines of objects are shown, which is my HOG pet hate!!!
All that said, this was an enjoyable HOG. if a little too short for my liking; taking me (as a very experienced HOG player) only three hours to complete.
I'd give MC:R seven or eight out of ten.

Well, I had to tear myself away from this game to come comment. This is a great game! Eh, I had to get used to the way HO scenes worked but I got used to them just fine. Sometimes, I wander around and wonder what to do and the hint systems isn't foolproof but it's still helpful....oh and the map! I forgot about that. That should help to, to let me know where there's an action available. This is more like an Adventure game rather than a Hidden Object Game..which I appreciate!! I miss my hardcore Adventure Games in this era of HOGs! :-) One very minor "oddity"....sometimes there's no sound with the dialogue - I hear the voice-overs just fine but it just seems odd to have the arbitrary dialogue not voiced.
Oh and something that can only happen in a game....go wander around, solve puzzles, talk to people all while some poor guy is laying on the floor dying! :-P
And White Rabbit, I looked at your response to my comment on yesterday's game....I downloaded & installed that Razor thing and I had no problem playing this game at all. Thank you. :-)
I'm running Windows 7, 64-bit

I haven't downloaded the game yet, but I just wanted to make this comment while I was thinking about it. Thanks GGOTD for all these games. Because of you, I have bought very few during the last several years. One thing I would appreciate is if you could always include the type of game (HOG, match 3, shooter, etc.) in your notification emails. Often you do, but just as often you don't. Just a suggestion.

Same error as #2. Downloaded, unzipped and, after checking the game's availability, it showed a little window with "Failed to launch the program" message. Even disabled the Comodo antivirus (normally not necessary, games and other software install w/o problem) and the same happened. Had the exact same problem last weekend with Nearwood. Every other game here, including yesterday's, installed correctly. Yeah, I know, I can go to MPC and get it there, but why host it here?

The nicest HOG games I've ever seen and I've played a lot of them. Graphics are super and a new way to find objects - new to me anyway. It had a bit of trouble installing a couple of files but I just hit retry and all installed ok.

Hello;
this is the second with "failed to launch" the program".
The antivirus software + defender are disabled, i have setup "administrator rights" and compatibility mode but nothing woks.
I suggest to improve the code for your games (e.g. : termida code).
I think I have to go to myplaycity again.
That is a bit frustrating but ty for offering those games.

Thanks for excellent reviews. I too am worn down on HOG theme even though this one might have unusually good graphics. Just that these become just too much like WORK.
Plow through this and that string of events. At least reading a book can unleash one's own imagination if a worthy creation. In the HOG format it seems all so spelled out. Worse you have to prob deeply for every little clue or item almost like proofreading or doing taxes.
Where's the grabber in this game style anymore? Maybe, at best, it's going to have to go toward the immersive route of VR or AR much like a film. Then you'd just lie back and let it all wash over you -- or interact if that's your pleasure. For me it's enough to be done with the pick & pick versions of HOGS much as with the original text only games or in the charting of Bard's Adventure days. I'll save my time & energy for something fresher with more pleasure and less WORK....

I have to say that this is one of the best games GOTD has offered so far. I loved it! The storyline was deep and full of detail, the graphics were great and the hidden objects were done in a new way to me. I enjoyed it so much, I just kept playing till I was finished! (I don't usually to that, but this game held my interest,) Thanks for the great game, and hope to see more like it!

At the last game helped me in the safe Modus with network drivers to install, everything else has not worked. So also I try it here and assume that also goes here. Good luck and a happy sunday to all
