Sherlock・Hidden Object・Match 3 for Pc

Fun game, lots to do, however, the amount of money it gobbles up is like being at a casino. You to keep buying tools to get through various levels. And if you have bad eyes, forget it. If you want to spend $30 every few days on a game, good luck. As with so many of these games, the demands on purchasing necessities is outrageously expensive. I purchased jewels to get the tools not realizing the amount of jewels it takes to get the tools. Rapidly gobbled up. oBeware. It is a fun game, I really do wish the cost wasn’t so steep. Yes, you can play free, but at a snails pace. You must renew energy, and if you’re having a bad streak, you lose that scene you will get docked a ton of energy just because. I think I’m reading this correct. Correct me if I’m wrong. The -15 in the red? My eyes have been problematic so it may be a bit easier with perfect vision. I like finding the clues, but some days I do the jewel challenge as it’s less strenuous on your eyes. Again, I do still believe the cost is quite significant. So I’d give it a five if not for that. I’ve not had an issue purchasing for other games, but they don’t gobble it up rapidly either.

The graphics and vocabulary used are great. The game is creative and challenging, but it is truly cost prohibitive once you really get into the game. And what is the use of earning gold coins? You can’t buy rubies with them, and you can only earn rubies very, very sparingly. It’s the rubies that you need to use to buy the devices you need to help you along the way. It is for these reasons that I downgraded the gaming experience, am contemplating deleting the game altogether, and have not mentioned it to friends. I need certain assemblers but can’t earn them even though I win the game. I do spend money on this game but come on be fair. Please consider making it plausible to earn assemblers without having to MOSTLY use crystals. UPDATE. I just recently deleted the game even though I enjoyed it. I simply can’t justify spending that much money on a game. Perhaps you might consider making things more reasonable to buy. Best of luck. Update...The bottom line is to make the game more affordable for a wider range of players especially during this long drawn out pandemic.

Update: Developer contacted me one day after I posted this review, I have received the gems I paid for. The game play is very smooth, stable game, even on an older device. ———————————— Previous review: This isn’t my first rodeo, been playing hidden object games for years. I know how it works, you have to play some scenes over and over to get the thing you need to finish a quest. These games are designed for the house to win (get your money) and I know the limits of playing for free. You don’t get much help from the game, boosters only give you coins or experience and those are few and far between. Boosters for time, energy or helpers have to be purchased with gems. But I need 2 clover to finish a quest. I have been playing for a week without successfully getting one. It is very disheartening. I think the steps to completing a quest should include all the parts you need. And I was running out of gems to buy helper items. So I was really excited that an offer popped up on Jan 8, a Super Deal, 99 gems for $1.99! I paid for it, got a receipt from Apple, saw that the money was taken from my account. But the gems never appeared. I contacted G5 support, opened a ticket, sent them a screenshot of my game, a copy of the receipt, everything they asked for. I haven’t heard from them since Jan 13. It’s been “passed along to the Technical Team.” [Issue resolved]

Every time I go to find an object, it’s not there until you find other objects. Majority of the time, can’t accomplish quest because what you need doesn’t show up even after you find all the required objects in the showcase. If you have to spend money to accomplish quests, then this game is not worth the time. Games are suppose to be fun not frustrating. Will play a little longer but most likely will uninstall for no other reason than I don’t enjoy playing games that lead you on. Update: DELETED GAME!!! More frustrating! Never got anywheres. Stuck on assembling collections; no new items to acquire. Never could get needed parts to complete quests no matter how many times I would go to scenes or I I investigated or played 3-match which was more frustrating! Wanted to acquire different collections not the same one over and over! Many people may enjoy spending money to acquire “items” but not me. If you have to spend real money to play a computer game, I’m not interested. I realize many people enjoy this type of gaming; just not me.
