• Mystery P.I.: The Lottery Ticket PC Game Review

  September 14th, 2007 | Tags: casual games, Mystery P.I.: The Lottery Ticket, PC Games
  

  In Mystery P.I.: The Lottery Ticket, players aren’t the lucky lottery winner. In fact, the lottery winner runs into a little bad luck. Grandma Rose, owner of the winning lottery ticket, lost her ticket. I put on my P.I. fedora and take the case to help find the missing ticket. As an incentive, Grandma will pay [...]

• Venice Mystery PC Game Review

  September 10th, 2007 | Tags: casual games, PC Games, Venice Mystery
  

  Venice Mystery starts slow, but gains momentum the first time you explore the world beyond the solitaire mah jong game. Playing solitaire with power ups quickly bores, but that changes when maps, paintings, clocks and a mystery enter the picture. The game opens with a little information about the mystery that comes together a few [...]

• Mortimer Beckett and the Secrets of Spooky Manor PC Game Review

  September 4th, 2007 | Tags: casual games, Mortimer Beckett and the Secrets of Spooky Manor, PC Games
  

  Mortimer Beckett and the Secrets of Spooky Manor completely captivated me from the first puzzle. This kind of game is what I’ve been looking for since reviewing Mystery Case Files: Ravenhearst and Azada. Both games contain puzzles where players pick up or move pieces to make something happen. In these games, the puzzles are more [...]

• Magic Shop PC Game Review

  August 31st, 2007 | Tags: casual games, Magic Shop, PC Games
  

  Welcome to the world of magic and fantasy where you run your own store in Magic Shop, a color matching / match three game. You attempt to run a magic store that designs and sells artifacts. Its previous owner, Loriel the elf, abandoned the story and no one has been able to successfully recapture its [...]

• Mysteryville 2 PC Game Review

  August 29th, 2007 | Tags: casual games, Mysteryville 2, PC Games
  

  Not having played Mysteryville, Mysteryville 2 instantly reminded me of Magic Academy in the game play style and interface — Nevosoft is behind both games. The developer does a first-rate job in telling a strong story in its hidden object games and continues the tradition with its latest entry. Journalist Laura Winner returns to the little [...]

• Magic Academy PC Game Review

  August 28th, 2007 | Tags: casual games, Magic Academy, PC Games
  

  Magic Academy should set the standard for games in the hidden object genre. Not only does the game involve the player in an engaging story, but also it keeps things from getting boring with its variety of puzzles. Most hidden object games pause for a short time after a player clicks a found object and require [...]

• Plumeboom: The First Chapter PC Game Review

  August 27th, 2007 | Tags: casual games, PC Games, Plumeboom: The First Chapter
  

  Thanks to Gamezebo, I had the opportunity to discover a game that isn’t known around the casual game world. Plumeboom is a peacock who tries to save Orniland in Plumeboom: The First Chapter where darkness has taken over the bird paradise. Crowbeak the Dark Wizard and Cornix the Evil Scientist plan to turn the birds [...]

• ZenGems PC Game Review

  August 21st, 2007 |
  

  When we hear about a new match three or color matching game, we don’t expect to see anything new — just a different story and theme. Be prepared for a wonderful gem full of surprises in ZenGems. It’s not what you expect from color matching games — in fact, sometimes you’ll do better if you [...]

• Sally’s Salon PC Game Review

  August 20th, 2007 | Tags: casual games, PC Games, Sally's Salon
  

  We shouldn’t be surprised at the flurry of beauty-themed games considering the industry makes billions from diet-related products and plastic surgery. Sally’s Salon takes a page from the Diner Dash manual replacing food and bussing with hair dos and eyebrow shaping services. Sally’s Salon does a fine job with its crisp graphics and the process [...]

• Temple of Tangram PC Game Review

  August 15th, 2007 |
  

  I loved doing tangrams as a kid especially when we students had the opportunity to play with them in class. It was more fun than solving math problems and working only with pencil and paper. With tangrams, your hands held the smooth wooden pieces while you tried to find the right place for them in [...]
