Midnight Mysteries Haunted Houdini
SCORE: 64
Midnight Mysteries Haunted Houdini mixes
together two genres - hidden object, and mystery. Those two meld
together agreeably. The ghost of Harry Houdini's wife sets on a quest to
find out who is stopping his spirit from reuniting with hers. My guess
was he was in hell, but Midnight Mysteries Haunted Houdini does not take
a Judeo-Christian stance on the afterlife.
All of the ghosts in Midnight Mysteries Haunted Houdini freak me out. It
became very disturbing having to deal with all of this ghosts. The
visual effects are admirably done. I was able to notice hidden items at
a regular frequency. Some of the puzzles in Midnight Mysteries Haunted
Houdini are insanely difficult. Visual effects are used to guide us to
certain items in certain areas to assist in progressing the storyline.
The music in Midnight Mysteries Haunted Houdini sets the ambiance. Which
was like going to a haunted house. There is a fair amount of the occult
in Midnight Mysteries Haunted Houdini. This iPad, PC, and MAC game is a
dream come true for witches and warlocks. The player has a journal that
assist with what has been going on. Puzzles will provide hints.
Speaking of hints, we find crows in Midnight Mysteries Haunted Houdini
to earn additional hints. The freaky black birds are what helps us. I
never felt comfortable with help from a crow. The price ranges for
Midnight Mysteries Haunted Houdini. It all depends what system you
purchase it on. I saw some of the prices here and there, and in my book
they are a little high.
Have you played any of the Nancy Drew PC games from Her Interactive? If
you have then the game play in Midnight Mysteries Haunted Houdini will
make perfect sense. Find certain items to interact with a certain thing.
My one complaint about the game play is items go away once they are
used. I used bolt cutters (that I combined from two pieces) to cut a
chain on a fence. I come to another door with a chain and lock, but my
bolt cutters are now gone. Were they destroyed after one use? I wish
game developers would consider not all items are disposable after they
are used.
The biggest issue families will have with Midnight Mysteries Haunted
Houdini is the supernatural and occult aspects. We had to routinely work
with ghosts in Midnight Mysteries Haunted Houdini. Things like seances
are in Midnight Mysteries Haunted Houdini. There is unfortunately a lot
of darkness in Midnight Mysteries Haunted Houdini.
