Book of Legends Review

Book of Legends is the tale about Excaliber and the search for the magical sword. This Mac game will take you to 5 different countries with a mix of puzzle and hidden object plays.

In Washington, D.C. Charleston Black finds a special book knowing that he has come across something that has been missing for centuries, he sends the book to his sister, Zoe. When she has the book there are strange men knocking at her door. She escapes with the book in hand, and begins her deadly adventure for the secrets of the Book of Legends.

Zoe communicates on her cell phone to her brother and various people who need her help. Initially she is in the D.C. area looking for clues and objects. She goes from the White House, Lincoln Memorial and the Washington Memorial. From the map she can go back to various scenes to help people who need to recover their items. The good thing is she gets paid for the tasks, and the money is used for plane fare and other necessities she needs to get around the world searching for clues and secrets.

The hidden object game is similar to other such games. You have a list of items you need to find at the scene by clicking on it. The hints are at the bottom on the cell phone and can be used if you have enough bars. You can click on the map to go to different areas or go back to a scene. The log will let you know what to look for and the book will show you the clues in the form of riddles. There are seek and find puzzles in order to complete tasks such as finding keys to open safes and secret things.

The Book of Legends is interesting with the banter of the 2 siblings on their cell phones. The graphics and sound are great and adds to the enjoyment of the play. The mini puzzles are so intertwined in the story you may not think they are separate. This game is fun and pleasurable to play and would recommend it to hidden object gamers who enjoy a good story.
