This is a well constructed game, with obvious attention to detail, right down to the dust motes swirling in a beam of light. The hidden object scenes are moderately challenging; I did not need any hints to find anything. The main challenge was in the scenes outside the hidden ones. You have to pay attention and thoroughly search them for inventory pieces (signaled by a grabby blue hand or sparkle)and information (signaled by an eyeball looking around, which I found amusing for some reason). There were fewer puzzles than in many of these types of game, and they were the easiest I've encountered so far. Which was just fine with me, because I don't want to always have to bust a brain cell just figuring out how a puzzle works like in the Mystery Case File Games.
Speaking of the MCF Games, I do not agree that this is better than Dire Grove, but it's up there on the tier just below. Dire Grove was more subtle in it's scariness, more creepy, while this game contains a series of sudden shocks, that make you jump at points. Interestingly enough, a wolf is part of both those games. How about a bear next time?
Only disappointment was that I thought this would deal more with the Salem witch trials, but that took a back seat to a historical mystery involving family curses and treaties and double crossings and whatnot.Get more detail about Midnight Mysteries: Salem Witch Trials [Game Download].
