Hidden Expedition: Polos Perle

With many of the HO games, I don’t pay a lot of attention to the story. This one (focused on Venice) kept me interested throughout. I also enjoyed the variety of games and puzzles, although some of the puzzle directions could have been clearer. I also enjoyed the graphics and illustrations.

Very good story taking through Venice and talking about Marco Polo. Good mini games and HOPs. Not much horror, so that was pleasant. Just some ninjas. Very cool. Now I even completed it a second time though and it was fun still.

Story not very engaging and the mini games were pretty pointless.

I'm not sure why, but I am enjoying this game much more than the first time I played it. Maybe I've changed the way I view games. This one is colorful and historical. I love history. The sparkles are extra fun and lovely. My favorite games have the best sparkles :) If the visual experience is top notch, that's 75% of the game's success, in my opinion. Moving the pieces about was smooth. The mini games were interesting, although a couple were too hard to understand - it seemed parts were missing. The HOPs were much too easy and unremarkable. Good game and still extremely playable!

Lots of reviews both ways. I seldom review, but this game makes me want to! I don't know that there's anything groundbreaking, but for me this is a solid game that I enjoy replaying.

I don’t get the reviews saying the puzzles were too difficult...?? I did this game with my 4-year-old. The clues and hidden objects made sense and were not so far apart that he couldn’t remember where we saw something or needed an object. The gameplay was separated into very manageable sections. Also, it was not creepy or gory, which is nice for playing as a family. Loved it!

I usually start a hidden object game and want to play it to the end. This one couldn’t keep my interest. I finished the game but it has been over a week and I am not that interested in doing the bonus game. Some of the Hidden Expedition games have been great. This one is not.

It's OK if he only had to pay 2.99

I only hold back one star because it was a bit short and the puzzles were very difficult. The bonus was VERY short. But it was a nice adventure detective-style.

Right after I purchased this game went downhill. From the storyline to the mini games that have little instruction and too complex. I finished the main game and tried to play bonus game but was stuck right from beginning trying to put the ring into the mini puzzle. No matter how much I try to drag to the center it won’t work. Want my money back !
