Detective Stories Hollywood Game Review
Someone is trying to bring a leading Hollywood movie studio to
it's knees and you are called upon to do a bit of sleuthing to
put an end to the problem. A large amount of cash is missing,
a most important script for the next Oscar award winning movie
has vanished, even the leading lady has disappeared.
Okay, so that's the spiel and that's about the most exciting
thing you will hear me mention about this latest hidden object
game, Detective Stories Hollywood. For die hard HOG fans, this
is downright boring. It's like a few hidden object scenes thrown
together, mini games chucked in to add a bit of difference and
no real plan to gel the whole production together in a meaningful
way.
Newbies to the hidden object genre will probably like Detective
Stories Hollywood. Objects are not hard to find and there is a
fair bit of dialogue that walks you through most of the game.
Mini games are pretty simple puzzles to solve and the graphics
are quite good. Unfortunately, the consensus seems to be that
it is suitable only for the younger set, perhaps around the 12
to 14 year old group.
Detective Stories Hollywood didn't do a lot wrong, yet it just
seems rushed and unpolished. Disappointing really, because the
idea was fun and hunting through a Hollywood studio in over 160
levels of hidden object games is something that could be totally
enjoying.
I honestly cannot recommend Detective Stories Hollywood other
than saying that you try the free demo game download for yourself.
It maybe that I am just a spoiled brat, too used to playing those
excellent HO games that have been coming out lately such as Mystery
Stories Berlin Nights. Now there is a hidden object game that
the developers of this should try and emulate.
Ah well, in a perfect world all games would be exciting. Detective
Stories Hollywood just misses that mark and rates about three
out of five, most of those marks purely for the graphics alone,
and lost points for too much annoying dialogue.
