Amazing Adventures: The Lost Tomb - PC

I am totally addicted to these games and enjoy that the hidden objects are repeated in each scene, which makes it more difficult. What I don't enjoy at all is having to complete a puzzle after each hidden object scene. There are only about 4 different types of puzzles (jigsaw, tile match, replace the missing objects, notices the differences) and they get really old in a very short time period. Would love the option to skip the puzzles and just complete the hiddlen object scenes.

Amazing Adventures: The Lost Tomb, by PopCap, is a hidden object game without a storyline. I found it tedious, but we are all different, so I'll list my reasons to better help potential buyers:1. The fast beat, repetitious music loop is the same throughout the entire game. It doesn't change from scene to scene.2. There is absolutely no animation, character interaction, dialog or story. You simply click a map location and find a dozen objects in a two dimensional setting. Then you go to an easy puzzle, work that out, and then go back to the map for your next hidden object location.3. There are only 4 kinds of puzzles, despite what the product discription reads: "Jigsaws" with less than 30 pieces, "Find the Matches" (grouped by same colors, or objects that function together, or exact duplicates), "Find the Differences" where two exact pictures have 6 differences, and "Swap the Tiles Around to Make a Picture."4. The game reuses locations over and over and over with the hidden object games, the tile games, and the find the differences games.5. As soon as you correctly place the last tile swap or jigsaw piece in a puzzle, the picture is covered with a strip telling you where you are heading next, and you don't get a chance to see the picture completed.Now for the good points:1. The hidden objects are very challenging to find.2. The Hint button recharges in only a few seconds.3. Bonus points are given at each level for not using a hint.4. There is a hidden scarab beetle to find in each scene.5. There is a timed mode or relaxed mode option.6. There is a free play mode when the game is completed.I like games to have animation, such as rain, falling leaves, fire, moving creatures, and so forth. I like a riveting story or mystery. I like character interaction--at least a little. And I like changing scenery with a more 3D feel. So I was disappointed with this game.

I love playing this game. I bought it because it was the very first game of this type we had owned a long time ago. Of course, it was given to someone else after we had finished it, because we enjoyed it and wanted others to play it also.So, when I saw it the other day, I HAD to buy it and my hubby and I are enjoying playing through it once again.Shirley

Love this game, when you finally solve all the puzzles and reach the end it just stops! You can't start over, keeps repeating the last level. I have never received the final "Prize" tho all levels have been reached, and am unable to start the game over. That is disappointing, but perhaps I am missing something. Getting there was challenging and fun. Just wish I could restart!

Enjoyable. Seems a bit more challenging than Adventures Around the World. I like the type and variety of puzzles between the searches.

I liked this game. Some of the puzzles were more challenging than others but they do give you hint button. My only issue with the game is that there are only 20 levels. That being said each level has multiple puzzles you must complete before you can move on. A word of advice though... once you find all the special items and you unlock the secret passage or whatever it's called, DON'T do those puzzles until you complete the other 20 levels. I did and what happens is on the secret passage puzzles you have to find everything. So you when go back into regular game play mode it's quite as challenging because you have found everything once already. In the normal game play mode you are only searching for a few things. The game is good though. I would buy this again.

My dad is in his late 70's and he loves this game. He plays it all the time and tries to beat his own time at finding all the objects in the hidden objects pages. It keeps his mind sharp and he can be across the room and when you ask him where a particular object is he knows! Love it! He never uses the hint button, so he gets extra points. He is so happy.

I love hidden object games and this one is very good. I kept me engaged from beginning to end and it is fun to replay. I found this to be a great game and will buy similar games in the future from Amazon

Really looking forward to this game but all the screen shots were too dark. Too bad.

We quite enjoed this game. It is a seek and find game very similar to the "I Spy" game series. There are jigsaw puzzles to complete between the seek and find which breaks it up nicely.

follows the pattern of the other 'amazing adventures' games-seems too easy at first but gets more difficult as the game progresses.

Purchased several hide and seek games from PopCap and this one is very challenging. I would recommend it to anyone

Great computer game. Waiting for another one.
