Beautiful Hidden Object Game with nice story and good end!
Playing Time: About 11 hours, but with certain lengths with me in terms of solving puzzles! I would say in 7 hours you can do it too! ^^ Generäll I thought the puzzles were good, but with some there were too little info to solve them ... ^^ Conclusion: A good game for in between!

Product received for free This is the second Installment In the Forgotten Places series and a Point & Click Game.
In the Plot one is to clear up the Inhibitor of an old Cursed castle.
While other Games of this Genre are rather colorful and colorful this is quite dark, there is no voice acting, instead more attention was paid to an amtospheric Soundtrack.
Story is once again something supernatural-as is so often the case in this Genre, sometimes a rational Action would be quite varied.
Otherwise a typical P & C Game, the Puzzles are slightly heavier than average.
I received the Game for free as a Test Copy.
7/10 Points.

+ Very beautiful atmospheric Scenes + Good Music + Partly quite challenging Puzzles + Well distributed Puzzles and Hidden Object scenes + Quick Journey via the Map to already visited Scenes + Cheap price and good price performance +-Story I found not so intoxicating, is But a Matter Of Taste-confusing Map, with Symbols and necessary Stage change, you sometimes don't know exactly where it goes on-Some German Translations for terms are missing-No Voiceover for the Characters, but there are synchronized Owls, Crows and Cats-Drap-and-drop to Use the inventory objects seems somewhat hairy-Progression in the Story about "Forward" button also seems a bit hakly-Sometimes Trial & Error at the Puzzles conclusion: Definitely recommended for the Money.

Genre A Good Hidden Object Adventure Story We play a young Woman who gets a Mysterious Letter from a Man named "Sir Charles." As she reads the Letter, strange Shadows suddenly float through the Area and we want to know what it is all about and travel to the old Castle and begin our Search.
Gameplay It is the usual solving of Hidden Object Scenes and Mini-games. The Hidden Object Scenes are uncluttered and fun. The Mini-games are sometimes very difficult.
Achievements There are 35 Successes. You have to play through the game in Expert Mode without any Tips or Skipping. For 1 Achievement you have to find hidden Butterflies (57 in total). There is a Butterfly to be found per Scene. For 1 Success, you have to solve all the Hidden Object Scenes after the Main Game in the Extra Menu.
Pro/Contra + Good Story + Good Music + Good Mini-games (sometimes heavy) + Very good Hidden Image scenes + Achievements Conclusion A Good Hidden Object Adventure with beautiful Hidden Image scenes. Very Recommended
